When the sun goes down on Kauaʻi, the stage at Kilohana Plantation erupts in song, dance, and fire. As hula dancers sway, fiery poi balls burn, and rhythmic drums pound, guests are taken on a journey across the Pacific. Vivid storytellers recount an extraordinary sea voyage from Tahiti to Hawaii. Hawaiian mythology is woven throughout the performance, animating some of Hawaii’s most powerful goddesses. The Luau Kalamaku show honors the tenacious Polynesians who settled the islands and acts as a history and mythology lesson. With a crop of talented local performers, interactive stories, and choreography worthy of a Tony Award, you won’t want to look away.

THE FEAST

Indulge in Hawaii’s favorite fare at Luau Kalamaku’s lavish buffet. The feast commences with an authentic ʻimu ceremony, where the kalua pig is unearthed from the underground oven. Now, it’s time to eat! Help yourself to heaping plates of traditional Hawaiian eats like poi, kalua pork, and fish. Some of Hawaii’s adopted favorites, including teriyaki chicken, vegetable chow mein, and potato macaroni salad, are also offered. Are you gluten-free? Vegan? Or simply have picky eaters in tow? The extensive menu satisfies all tummies and taste buds.

THE LOCATION

Luau Kalamaku is located on the storied Kilohana Plantation— a former sugar plantation that dates back to the late 19th century. Sprawling across 105 acres, today, the estate is home to a 1930s-style mansion, a 2.5-mile rail line, a top-rated restaurant, shops, and Luau Kalamaku. Arrive early to explore the unique variety of shops or pick up a one-of-a-kind “Made on Kauai” souvenir from the artisan market on the luau grounds. Or, grab a ticket for a train ride into the heart of the plantation, where you’ll tour orchards of tropical fruit and feed friendly farm animals. This is one of our favorite Kauai Luaus!

Authenticity is at the forefront of ʻAuliʻi Lūʻau. Where other luaus replace accuracy with kitsch or dramatics, Aulii Luau showcases the genuine culture of Polynesia. The show takes the audience on a voyage through time, from when the Maʻohi people crossed the Pacific using the stars as their navigational guides to when Hollywood became infatuated with Hawaii in the 1950s. Listen as mythological tales are recounted through hula and chant and watch as ancient fire-throwing demonstrations are honored. After introducing the audience to Hawaiian, Tahitian, and Maori cultures, the evening culminates with a thrilling Samoan fire knife dance.

FOOD AND DRINK

Aulii Luau is as much about showcasing Polynesian culture as it is Hawaiian fare. Get the evening started at the open bar, where an endless flow of Mai Tais, Blue Hawaiians, wine, and beer are served. Or, sample a delightful selection of Hawaiian pupus like beef pipi kaula, purple sweet potatoes, and tako poke. As the sun sets, indulge in the all-you-can-eat buffet. ʻAuliʻi Lūʻau works with talented chefs at the Sheraton Resort to prepare an unforgettable Hawaiian feast. Entrees include favorites like chow mein, fresh fish, kalua pork, taro rolls, and Huli Huli chicken. Just be sure to save room for a dessert of mango cake, coconut cake, pineapple upside-down cake, brownies, or fresh pineapple.

THE SETTING

Few Kauai luaus take place in such a heavenly setting. Located on the oceanfront lawn of the Sheraton Resort, the action unfolds just steps from Poipu Beach. After arrival, guests are invited to enjoy a cocktail amid swaying palms and bask in the fading sunlight and gentle tradewinds.

PACKAGES

Choose from the Aloha standard package or the Aliʻi premier package. The Aloha package provides guests entrance to the luau, a shell lei greeting, and access to the open bar and buffet.
