Too long! Too many Trans references. Audience competition was lame. Women’s dancing, fashion show and men’s fire dances were wonderful!

The MC was the real star of the night! The performances were really good, and was just enough in between audience participation and comical banter in between acts. The ladies were gorgeous, and the guys doing the fire dance/display were very good. It was cool to see how coconut milk is made too. The food on the night was a good mix, although there was no dessert offered. Staff were a little slow to come back to see if wanted more drinks during the performance, so we just had the one. Overall, lovely experience!

Didn't enjoy this show at all. Although the dancers were lovely & talented, there was very little authenticity about the show, and the host was very suggestive.
It was actually extremely boring in parts. I would have happily left if I hadn't been with a group.
The fire dancers were the best part of the show.
The venue was terrible. The seats were extremely uncomfortable, and the venue fans were not turned on at all, even for the number of people at the event, so the heat was sweltering.
The staff would take an order, then go away & forget it or bring the wrong thing.
So glad we weren't staying here.
And it was NOT a buffet. It was all served by staff, and if there were items of food you didn't like - you ended up with very little on you plate.
Wish we had attended the night at the place we were staying - but we will know next time.

Loved this evening. Good buffet food and lots of laughs. Very professional show. Beautiful dancers and amazing fire performers. A definate Apia highlight.
Need transport to the venue. We had a hire car, but taxis available.

Food was good! Dinner was at shared tables in the hotel lobby—there were lots of structural columns so your view may be blocked if you’re not at one of the front tables. Get there early for a good view!

The host made the show so fun & engaging! Awesome entertainment and food was good. My group of 13 had a great night.

Awesome: The cultural education and dances, the setup and best of all, Dwayne the Host who added vibrancy, flair and good humor to the presentations, and to purposefully engage the audience.
For improvement: Food was tasty but had cooled by the time it was served.

Food was wonderful. Fave was oka and luau. The entertainment was also amazing. Staff were super friendly we had a good time. Siva afi was fire and the MC "boo-boo" was hilarious and kept us engaged. It was so good. Highly recommend

Fantastic entertainment however the food was not great. I especially felt sorry for my young kids who didn’t have any alternative choices like chips and nuggets or burgers only was the local Samoan food that they aren’t used to. I won’t be bringing kids here for dinner.

Performance and entertainment was great. Service was poor. Food was just acceptable.
After ordering drinks before happy hour ended, got the drinks and paid extra. I talked to the waitress, she said the drinks didn't get placed until after happy hour ended. Well, that's not my problem. After some complaining, I did not get my way. I hope this negative review is worth the 10 talla that you scammed off me. Of all things in the world, I hate a Gotcha.
If one person goes somewhere else, I have done my job.
This would have been a 4 star but when it starts out bad, it's a sign of things to come.

What a night!!! Bobo is an excellent MC so funny and engaging. Each performance was fantastic with great mix of audience participation and teaching moments about cultural practices. The show culmiinated with an impressive Siva Afi performance which was amazing. The food was delicious too. A great night out and a great deal too.

From the purchasing of the Fiafia night tickets using Viator, to the successful and entertaining evening, our families had a wonderful experience, the food was devine, the best luau I've ever had from the taste to the texture, and the MC hosting the Fiafia was fab-u-lous, had us in fits of laughter from the beginning to the very end :) even our two children were amazed at the fire dance, to the all round entertainers, thank you to all those involved :)

Show was great! Loved it & my husband really enjoyed the show. Our first time there and other than the line for the food being long, had no other complaints. The host was fantastic, really funny and the food was divine! I love island food and this place has some of the best I’ve tried so far since being on the island. I recommend, a mix of dances and good entertainment.

My family and I had the best time ever! From the hospitality bestowed on us at the start, to the traditional Samoan food served and the entertaining dancing showcasing from various Polynesian islands was by far the best I've attended. The MC, was lively, funny and made the experience enjoyable. She was everything!!! But to sum it all up, Thank you to the lovely couple who worked there for giving my family and I a ride back to our hotel because it was difficult to get a taxi there. Vie was the wife's name and I forgot the husband's name but many thanks for the amazing hospitality!!! We will definitely be back!!!

The food was good my favourite was the raw fish and breadfruit salad but the performances lacked a lot besides the fire dance was great!
Evelina_B, Oct 2023
Whole entertainment - only downside was the buffet took soo long to get through all the patrons. Other than that an enjoyable evening.

The MC was extremely funny along with the talented men and women dancers. Very enjoyable. Plus the food was delicious
Tina_M, Jul 2023
Wonderful show of fire dancing true skill of fire dancers that thrilled me. I loved the food and the dancing and songs of the Pasific.
Teresa_J, Jul 2023
I loved the entertainment and the fire dancing. The food was delicious and I loved that it was traditional Samoan food as my mum is Samoan and we grew up with oka, chopsuey, taro , breadfruit, pallusami , however, I was hoping for a delicious desert perhaps some fruit salad or pineapple pie with merangue , this was my only desire that wasn’t met, other than the lack of desert everything else was simply splendid , thank you for our beautiful evening.
