Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club
Great show!
Reviewed by: Lauren
I booked this luau for myself and my 11-year-old daughter. I was expecting very mediocre food….. but was super pleasantly surprised! All of the food was really delicious, and plentiful. Unlike other luaus, they maybe had a tad fewer choices, but everything was fresh and delicious. The wait staff was super attentive, and brought my daughter and I as many sodas as we wanted. Since the two of us were traveling alone, I didn’t try any of the alcohol, but the alcohol drinks that were coming out looked fun. The show itself was also really great!! The emcee had this amazing voice, and you couldn’t help but be fascinated as she spoke about Hawaii and the Polynesian islands. The dancing and costumes were very entertaining, and we had an absolutely fantastic time. I would 100% do this luau again, I loved the small intimate nature and setting and the employees were top-notch. Well done!

Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club
Good food
Reviewed by: Kauai Val
The food was good. The setting was rather dullsville. There was a raised stage, but the dancers did not perform there where everyone could have had a better view. They were at ground level next to a wall at the side. We were seated behind a very large guy. He had a nice shirt and a cute baby, but I didn’t get to see much of the dancers.

Good time
Reviewed by: Sandy Cheeks
This was a standard whale watching experience. Boat was nice and clean. Crew was friendly and fun . We didn’t have much luck seeing whales, but it was early in the migration season. If nothing else then it a a nice boat ride around beautiful Maui.

Haleakala National Park Guided Sunset Tour with Dinner
The sunset was amazing! I would highly recommend this tour. Watching the sunset above the clouds was breath taking.
Reviewed by: Linda and William
The tour was very informative and lots of scenery to take in. When they say to layer for the top of Haleakala, take the suggestion. It was very cold at just short of 10,000 feet when the sun starts going down. It was a beautiful end to the day. A definite must for your bucket list.

Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club
Typical/Tradition luau
Reviewed by: Cheeky Family
This is a great family Luau, it was your ideal and Typical Luau. Food was buffet style and ready to go with pork, fish, and chicken options. The show completed the different dances of the different Polynesian islands and culture that you would expect and was colorfully narrated. The staff were very friendly and quick to serve. Price is very economical and affordable that was all inclusive with food and drinks. I recommend this packet for families who want to get a Luau in at a budget price.

Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club
Poor performance
Reviewed by: Bc
I'm not going complain about the food, it's good but they need to improved their seating and luau stage, you have to be vip to be able to see the performance. All you see it's people's head if you are seated in the middle or back seat. The dancers don't give a chance to take a nice picture. Not recommend unless you pay vip
Happy you enjoyed the food. Sorry to hear you didn't have a great view from your seat. I wish you had said something to a manager so we could have tried to accommodate. We will soon be moving to an elevated stage but have to wait for approval from the county liquor department. Until then we have added elevated seating in the back to help guests be able to see better that are seated in the farthest rows. We also try to put groups with children close to the front so the children can see since they are shorter. We hope you were still able to enjoy the music and show and hope you will give us another chance in the future.

Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club
LUAU “HIDDEN GEM”
Reviewed by: Judy S.
My hubby and I wanted a more intimate luau experience…something more like a real family luau! We found it! Although there was no emu ceremony, we were immediately seated and our drink orders taken. Then we were invited to a lovely buffet without having to wait…delicious mahi, chicken and the most delicious pork I have ever had at ANY luau! Decadent desserts too - yum! After dinner, we experienced a one hour Hawaiian luau show. The dancers were extremely skilled and their performances very entertaining. The fire knife dancer was excellent and never dropped a fire stick. Music, songs, dancing and continued drink service during a lovely sunset and a twinkle-lit venue.
We loved the experience and enjoyed it immensely….fabulous food, positive personalities, delightful dancers, melodious music - the perfect evening at a more affordable price! We’ll be back with more family!

This was so fun for our group of 18 people! The buffet was great with tons of options that everyone liked. There was a great dessert spread too. Our waiter was awesome and on top of bringing us all-you-can-drink beverages. The entertainment was so fun, with a mix of Hawaiian history between acts. A must-do if you've never been to a luau!

Awesome Cruise
Reviewed by: A. Pacheco
Our family went on the early morning Whale Watching tour. It was worth getting up early to go! Our captain was very knowledgeable about the tour and surrounding islands. He took us a little farther out so we were able to see 3 whales! It was 2 males chasing down a female and she was leading them out on a chase! I would definitely recommend this cruise!

We just did a paddle boarding lesson with Eps. He was awesome and we spent a great time learning how to stand up and use the paddles properly. Eps was patient and gave us loads of info about the island he obviously loves. We saw loads of turtles, a baby shark and loads of fish. We will definitely try paddle boarding again.

Pride of Maui Luau Sunset Dinner Cruise with Open Bar & Polynesian Show
Such an amazing night!
Reviewed by: Ralph
The crew is exceptional! You might be turned off initially that the crew is also performing but don’t be. They’re so good and very much a steward of the culture. They’re extremely talented, entertaining and my wife and I loved every minute of it! The food was good, the atmosphere was obviously amazing (it’s Maui). The captain is a super chill guy, he does a brief education of the islands that was super interesting and informative. I can’t say enough good things about this dinner cruise. To top is off the crew involved some of the guests in the show and everyone was just having a great time.
I highly recommend this activity, you won’t regret it!

Haleakala National Park Sunrise Sightseeing Tour with Breakfast & Transportation
Amazing honeymoon experience
Reviewed by: MrsMoralee
I searched all the available tours for the sunrise at Haleakala and found this one wounded the best suited for me and I was not disappointed. We were able to be picked up from our hotel (Hyatt regency on the west side of the island) which was a huge help as me and my husband do not drive. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Our driver was Chris who was a huge credit to the tour, was very welcoming. He took the time to ask different groups and couples where they were from and bonded with us. The summit was incredible, you couldn’t believe how high up you were! It does get cold up there but coming from England it was like being back home (so do dress up warm and change later for the towns). Although it was a cloudy sunrise, the experience was still amazing with all the knowledge Chris gave and offering to take amazing photos for us all. It may be a once in a lifetime experience but we still would want to do it all again.

Haleakala National Park Sunrise Sightseeing Tour with Breakfast & Transportation
Weird tour for me
Reviewed by: Mayor Mabry
On the ride to the summit, we stopped for everyone to be fitted with bicycles and gear. I signed up for a tour. The sunrise at the summit was phenomenal. The ride down however was a bit uncomfortable because I was the only one on the bus. We were mainly watching the bikers, making sure they got down the mountain safely. We stopped in two towns where Rory let me get off and walk around, but it wasnt much of a tour.....it was a bus ride to the sunrise and back. It's not what I paid for but I did get to see the sunrise. Also, my friend was suppose to go but got sick as we left the motel. Eddie was the driver to the summit and had to stop for her. Luckily we hadnt gone far so he returned her to the motel and I did the 'tour' on my own. Rory was the driver coming down and he was great doing what he was supposed to do. I tried to get a refund for my friend to no avail. They said she must have a dr note. Since she wasnt sick enough to go to the dr, she lost her money. It was a beautiful sunrise but all in all I was disappointing in the day. Make sure if you want a tour, you aren't going with bikers. The description did not make that clear.
