An experience not to be missed - This amazing event acted out the history of the people of Hawaii, as well as their dances and music, all of which were stunning. There were local artists selling their products before the Lu’au started, and the photographs and jewellery were all stunning. I could have spent a fortune, but had to limit myself, unfortunately! We had a very good buffet dinner, which was delicious, with an open bar included, while the music and dancing entertained us, but once everyone had finished eating, the main story started and was completed with the most amazing fire dances. A wonderful evening and an experience not to be missed.

Luau Kalamaku - We went with family age 3 to 72. Everyone enjoyed the food and drinks, missing only a chance to try Poi. The dancing, costumes and entertainment were top notch. Our 3 year old was dancing the hula in the aisle. He totally understood the story being told. It was a wonderful night.

Great show! Bar is lacking. - The show and amenities were great! This show included more artistic, broadway influence performances. The food was typical luau food. The open bar was severely lacking with minimal drink options. Only 2 wine and 2 beer options. The liquor drinks were too sweet and cheap tasting. Even if they added a cash bar with premium options to include better beer and wine options, I wouldn’t have minded paying more.

I thought the experience ... - I thought the experience was expensive, the food on the buffet wasn't that great. The Hawaiian dancers did a great job. The people doing the dances with the fire were amazing. I enjoyed see all the different costumes.

It's a Luau - I'm not sure what the other luau's are like in Kauai but this one was ok. I've been to two other Luau's over the last 25 years and I still remember the one on the beach in Maui was the best. This luau is on a plantation and I liked having some time to walk round the property. The buffet dinner had a lot of selections and I thought the food was good but in a cafeteria style way. I did like the open bar and for the price of admission it did add some value to the event. Everyone at our table did have trouble following the narrative and the sound was not great. The performers really did give 100% and I think that's what really saved the show. Obviously the fire acts were the most fun. I think there are two other Luau's on the island but we chose this one since it was closest to our hotel. I would definitely book it directly since we found the concierge price at our hotel was higher. Also, they have VIP seats in the first three rows which I'm not sure is worth the extra money. Overall, I could recommend this is you're in the area

Wouldn’t bother going back for the price. - Overall, the entertainment was pretty good, but the rest of it seemed a bit unorganized, and the food was nothing special.
