“This is the best Luau you’ll find in Maui. It’s small, personal, and authentic. It feels like an old seaside village. In addition to fresh fish and grilled steak, you’ll get all-you-can-eat traditional Luau fare...Then there’s the entertainment, featuring a musical journey from old Hawaii to the present with hula dancing, chanting, and singing. Fodor’s Maui and Lanai
“This is our favorite Luau in all of Hawaii. Everything about it comes together just right, and it’s as authentic as they come. The Luau feast and traditional entertainment both serve as a wonderful introduction to real island culture, and they’re both terrific. Don’t mistake this for a deadly dull history lesson - its riveting entertainment and the performers are first-rate. The food is excellently prepared and well labeled (so you know what you’re eating).” Complete Idiot’s Travel Guide to Hawaii
“The Old Lahaina Luau has reinvented itself authentically in a genre rife with cliché. At sunset, guests sit at tables or on lauhala fiber mats on the ground in front of a grass-mound stage. The program offers intelligent narration and excellent ancient hula. The food is authentic Hawaiian, and delicious.” New York Times - Travel
