A very basic and mediocre show. It is probably the poorest Luau that I have been to. The food was salty, the fish was smelly and the chicken was just bad. The lines to get food were long, with servers that looked completely unprofessional. Joking and chatting among them and breathing all over the food as they served it, no uniforms it felt like the organizer brought "day helpers" to complete the staff for the day. The show is completely lame; only three Hula dancers, and one guy carrying the show. The show itself is a light assortment of dances, all very basic. They fit so many people that some tables have only a partial view of the stage as it is blocked by the huge trees beside the stage. Many people left early, we stayed until the end waiting for the show to improve, but it never did. I do not recommend this luau.

So entertaining and great performers Show was very entertaining and funny - no mosquitos . Food was buffet style and it was OK but 5 stars for the service and hospitality of the staff. The crowd was pretty quiet throughout the night so I felt bad for the performers but they always had a smile on their face, constantly entertained and was positive throughout the entire experience. Yes the drinks were weak but come on, if you’re trying to get trashed, go to the many amazing bars but if you want to have a good time, watch some awesome performers and indulge in a moment of Polynesia culture, you’ll get it at Ka Moana Lu’au.

Good Entertainment and Food I attended the luau a week ago. As a Polynesian entertainer myself, I have watched and performed in countless luau shows. I was very impressed with the quality of the dancing—specifically all the hula numbers as it should be in Hawaii. Having Tahitian drummers in addition to Hawaiian musicians added an extra touch throughout the show that other shows do not have. I also thought the food was good compared to other shows on Oahu. Mahalo for an enjoyable night!

Good luau experience! Food was excellent. Kids activities are very short. Make sure to do them first. We missed them and were disappointed. The activities and bar both close early so be aware! Show is great! Recommend, but wish everything was open the whole time.

Not what we envisioned. Can’t really recommend Aloha tower sound like a cool historical location, conveniently located, booked in advance to get a decent seat. First we show up and are told to come back, then we come back line is at least 30 minutes long. After we wait for all the VIPs to be taken ahead of us, and no communication as to which line we are supposed to be in, we get to the photo and snack part, (which was stale and crumbled chips). Then we wait..and wait and. For what seemed to be hours in the heat, non exciting area. Finally we get our table and our reaction, as was the other couple we are seated with was ‘you have got to be kidding me’. Couldn’t see a thing, tacky plastic tables and chairs. No sight of the roasting pig and fire and seating where you felt like you were part of it like we’d been expecting. Then we decided we had to go get drink, then eventually go get food. Let me tell you about the scam they’ve got going for the drinks: you get a free drink coupon with your $125 price, so you think, ‘oh good we’ll get a drink’ . No, our drink coupon only entitles you to some drinks, which they do a poor job of explaining. Then they say for a $5 up charge you can get the ‘other’ drinks, then it ends up being $10/each so $20 total up charge, and the drinks still weren’t what we wanted. Unless you have the vip package, maybe they got good drinks, not sure. And they got actual leis, too. The rest of us got pula she’ll necklaces, oh well. Then the crafts which seemed ok: make a lei, or braid a headband thing. Then the food. The only way I can describe it is ‘meh’. Not really happy, or cheery dishing it out, but just ok. It wasn’t horrible, but kinda was

Finally the entertainment portion. It was good, especially the fire portion. It was however the exact same show we saw on the NCL cruise we’d just been on, so not really a show stopper for us.

To sum up: parts of it were good not great. Should have saved our money.

Worst customer service Had a mishap with double booking. Lost $540 because they refused to refund our money. Yoshi who is over the refunds was very difficult to talk to, overly excited and aggressive. Would not recommend booking to anyone
