Traveller Tips

Not a lot of parking.. you have to wait till the peeps visiting the valley and the falls leave before you find parking.

Although we had to drive was across the island from Waikiki, it was well worth the drive and we are still talking about how amazing the luau was.

I highly recommend it if you are in ohau, TOA LuAu is a most attend activity.

Best Experience at Luau in Hawaii

Linda_M, Mar 2023

The show was great, the staff/performers were wonderful, and the celebration of our Anniversary was so unexpected and meaningful. Enjoyed the hike and swimming in the waterfall that was included in the price.

Must do experience

Great place and a super performance. Everyone was so talented and caring. They seem to really enjoy their role. Highly recommend!

Super friendly and authentic!

Martha_H, Mar 2023

Get there a few hours early to walk down to the waterfall. Bring a swimsuit if you want to go in the water. They assign tables, but not seats at the table. Get in line 30 minutes early to get your pick. Use your drink tickets early. They may run out of frozen drinks.

Amazing

Amazingly experience!! Loved the smaller venue, beautiful surroundings, family owned business. Great cultural experience with beautiful dancing and people. Highly recommend!

Great show with good food...

Vickie_J, Mar 2023

Great show with good food in a beautiful setting. Be sure to allow enough time before or after the mid day show to make the easy hike up to Waimea Falls.

Fun

Machelle_T, Feb 2023

Had an amazing time! The shows and the food was great! Loved the fire dancing show! Had a genuine family vibe and atmosphere! Went on my birthday. Birthday guests received a an additional special pineapple cake desert! This is an awesome value, admission to Waimea Valley Botanical Garden/Waterfalls is included. Plan on spending the day in North Shore area, worth the trip. You do need a car and plan extra time for traffic and construction delays!

The Best Luau You’ll Ever Go To!!

Jacqueline_M, Feb 2023

It was my first time visiting Hawaii and wanted to do a local luau that didn’t feel commercial. They hands down delivered!! I was greeted with a fresh beautiful lei, shown to my seat, made a headband out of palm leaves, watched a performer climb a coconut tree 😳, got a wonderful lunch (they even offered seconds if you wanted them, but we were so full!), and got to see performance after performance of traditional dances in beautiful costumes. AMAZING!! And the MC was hilarious too.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Aloha and mahalo for this review! We're glad to hear that you had a great first time luau experience. Hopefully we'd see you again soon! Mahalo!

Fantastic

Best luau!!

Ellen_B, Feb 2023

We have attended other luaus which were very good, but this was by far the best! CC and her family are native Hawaiians and shared their heritage in a very engaging and captivating manner. The cultural presentations both before and after dinner were interesting , informative and entertaining. The staff was very attentive, food was excellent. There were no vendor tables trying sell things which we appreciated. The locale was in the Waimea Valley where native Hawaiians had lived. The venue was also excellent as there was an elevated second tier so people at the rear tables had an unobstructed view. It poured rain at one point in the evening during a fire dance portion of the program and the performers carried on, although all of the guests were dry and under cover. The price was less than many others but far superior! We would absolutely do this again on a future trip to Oahu!! Thank you to CC and her family for a memorable evening!

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Aloha and mahalo for taking the time to write us this review and for sharing your experience with us! We're glad to hear that yo had a great time at the luau and enjoyed the show. We will forward this to Cousin Cece, this will surely make her day. Mahalo and God bless!
