🌺 Huaka'i Luau
Huaka'i Luau at Hilton Grand Vacations Ka'anapali Beach Club offers an unforgettable oceanfront luau experience on Maui. Held on the scenic Luau Lawn overlooking Ka'anapali Beach, this weekly evening celebration features island cuisine, live music, traditional Hawaiian hula and vibrant Polynesian entertainment beneath the stars.
The show honors Hawaii as Momi 'O Ka Pakipika, the Pearl of the Pacific, while following the journeys of ancient Polynesian voyagers who navigated thousands of miles across the ocean using the stars, currents and knowledge passed down through generations. Graceful hula, energetic island rhythms and performances inspired by cultures throughout Polynesia bring these stories to life.
A talented live band accompanies the dancers throughout the evening, building toward a thrilling Samoan fireknife finale. Master performers combine flame, steel, rhythm and movement in a powerful display celebrating the courage, skill and traditions of the Pacific Islands.
Before the show, enjoy a buffet-style dinner featuring island favorites, such as fresh Kula greens, seared mahi, shoyu chicken and smoky kalua pork. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free selections are also available, making Huaka'i Luau a welcoming choice for couples, families and groups looking for a memorable Maui luau in Ka'anapali.
