It was really great! Transportation was fun and set the tone. The Luau is in a great setting next to the Ocean. Drinks were good, food was good and plentiful and the people were great! The entertainment was better than I expected. A long and varied performance. I highly recommend this Luau!

I went to Germaine’s Luau on a solo trip and had a wonderful experience. The staff was welcoming and made me feel comfortable right away. The oceanfront setting was beautiful, the food was great, and the show especially the dancers was amazing. It was a fun, authentic Hawaiian experience and one of the highlights of my trip. Highly recommend, even for solo travelers!

Went to Germaines last night. Fabulous show and fantastic food and atmosphere. Can't wait to go back

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Aloha Tony, Mahalo for your excellent review. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Mahalo,

Food was ok, dance was good, fire part was great but short

Susan_B, Mar 2026
Food was ok. Pulled pork was watery and no extra bbq sauce provided. Chicken was really good- best thing on plate, cake was the next best thing on plate. No idea what white square thing was - looked like tofu?

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Aloha Susan, Mahalo for your review. The white square is Haupia made of coconut. My apologies, there should have been a sign indicating what it was. Traditionally with our kalua pig (pulled pork). it's not served with BQQ sauce. .Aloha,

Our luau was cancelled...

Henry_S, Mar 2026
Our luau was cancelled due to weather and I want to make sure Mr Hensold's credit card is credited for the tour cancellation.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

The experience was great....

Gina_C, Mar 2026
The experience was great. The MC was perfect for the show! We would of like to see more representation of Hawaiin style dance and Hula but the program was still really good and entertaining. The food was good, I do wish that there was more variety of Dessert and it should be covered as there was bugs flying around landing on the pieces of Vanilla cake. We did enjoy ourselves though, and really enjoyed the pig presentation.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Aloha Gina, Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. Also, Mahalo for sharing about the dessert selection and bugs. I'll bring it to the operations managers attention. Aloha,

Everything was absolutely...

Stephanie_W, Mar 2026
Everything was absolutely fantastic. From the helpful gentleman on the gate, to the performers, bar staff and those who cooked the delicious food. The activities they had on before the music and dancing started were fantastic and great for keeping the kids entertained. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and it was very well organised. This was the second Lū'au we have been to and is definitely the best. Would recommend it to anyone

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Amazing

Andreya_P, Feb 2026
We had a wonderful time, the preform are amazing, learning about the culture was so beautiful. The only thing was waiting on the food, if you where at the red table it truly made you feel invaluable even tho you paid $119 I’ve never paid that much and felt like a second class citizen. Other than that, the people work hard and are amazing and talented.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Aloha Audrey, Mahalo for your excellent review. My apologies as the Luau buffet line has the order of Plumeria Package get's served, original package the makai package. It's an all you can eat buffet. Mahalo again,

Horrible experience

mina_g, Feb 2026
I did not like this luau. The money I paid for a boring show and horrible food was not worth the money we paid. Everything was a matter of fact, nothing genuine about this experience. Never will return again.

👎 bad

Salvador_C, Jan 2026
Lousy experience, I'm disappointed after 4 luaus with great experiences, this is by far the worst, no flower collar lei ,instead some other cheap ugly collar, only one small alcoholic drink you'll have to buy everything else. Dinner was served very late around 8 pm

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Aloha Salvador, I'm sorry to her that we didn't meet your expectations. We have three luau packages and the Makai Package come with one alcoholic beverage. However, soft drinks , coffee and water are unlimited complimentary. Your review is appreciated. Mahalo,

Nicole_C, Dec 2025
The Luau was great! Even in December with a bit of rain, the Christmas experience was absolutely amazing! The staff was very nice, even passed out rain ponchos so that we could stay dry! The tattoo artist drew a beautiful turtle on my arm and with a fresh flower placed in my hair I really got into the Hawaiian spirit!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Aloha Nicole, We appreciate your excellent review, even in the rain. Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. Mahalo again,
