Very enjoyable, with beautiful costumes and authentic performances. Not much Vegas-style dazzle here but more of an intimate celebration of Polynesian culture. And the food was excellent, well beyond my expectations.
You cannot leave Kauai without an authentic luau experience, and to get one you need only visit us at the newest, most exciting and authentic luau on the island. Fronting the ancient royal surfing grounds, Luau Ka Hikina takes place in our newly built, onsite, open-air Event Pavilion, Halau Ho’okipa, which boasts unparalleled views across the ocean.
From the impressive torch lighting ceremony that kicks off the evening’s festivities to the mesmerizing hula kahiko (ancient hula) dances performed under the direction of an award-winning kumu hula (hula master) Leilani Rivera Low, Luau Ka Hikina invites you to experience a memorable evening celebrating Hawaiian and Polynesian culture, complete with a locally sourced, traditional Hawaiian feast with a modern point of view and live music.
