Grand Hyatt Kauai Luau 1571 Poipu Road, Koloa, HI 96756

"The experience was fun, festive, and delicious. Drinks were weak but the food was delicious and exceeded expectations. The show was fun and well executed. Performed by talented dancers and a gracious host. However, it could be more informative and tell more history."

"I'm sorry to say that the Grand Hyatt Kauai Luau rates last in Luau's we've attended, especially considering the price. We would not recommend it. We were led to believe that it rated highly among the various events on Kauai but I do not understand how. Before we go on, I must say that the waitstaff were very attentive, helpful, and considerate. Good folks, good sports all. Tables were set out on the lawns which was very nice until the rains started. We understand that island weather events are unpredictable but, there were no effective contingency plans in place for rains on this, one of the wettest of the islands. We've been to luaus/events/dining venues where, when it began to rain, they immediately set up a covering for the stage and umbrellas for the tables. Instead we carried our soggy plates to sit on folding chairs, which we'd pulled from the tables, into a dry area off to the side where we ate with plates in our laps while the performers waited for the rains to stop. At least they gave us towels, so there's that. The food was pretty good but no Imu (Fire Pit) ritual. The beef was difficult to eat (kind of tough, really) since we had to cut it while balancing it in our laps. Intermittently the performers could continue. However, the performing troupe consisted of only four young women, one older woman, one young man, an emcee and small band. We've seen much more impressive free performances and much, much more impressive paid performances."

"I think if you have your expectations set, you will have a blast. My family, 2 teens, had a great time. It was an audience participation type luau. GREAT performers and musicians as well, but lots of audience participation, an MC and even a couples dance! All by the ocean! The buffet was beautiful and we found plenty of yummy things. Really fun Hawaiian experience!"

"If you are looking for Vegetarian options in food then this is not the right place . Such a big name in Hotel industry still in buffet for vegetarian they only had some pasta. Rest all was meat which is good for those who like to eat Meat but not for Vegetarian. Even we confirmed before paying huge tickets amount and the lady said they have big variety for Vegetarian. Over all show was fine but dinning was poor"

"Loved the fruit spread! The Luau Show was awesome - not only the dance itself but there was a historical interpretation pertaining to the dance - whether the Hula or the Fire Dance! Plus the audience participation was real great & warmed up the audience to the whole show…"
