Return to the days of ancient Hawaii. Where stories and music passed down from kupuna (elders) are shared with you, our honored guests. The most significant style of celebration in ancient Hawaii was the luau, held to honor kings, gods and guests. The Grand Hyatt Kauai Luau welcomes you to join us for this time-honored event. The feast is sure to satisfy and the entertainment will keep you enchanted as you learn the traditional dance of the many locales of Polynesia. We invite you to experience the beauty, romance and adventure. It is an evening that you will always remember. The blowing of the conch shell begins the evening as the soothing sounds of a Contemporary Hawaiian trio lilt through the air. The royal spread includes cuisine from the melting pot of cultures making up Hawaii. After dinner prepare to be enchanted by the historic yet exotic dances of Polynesia, from the islands of Tahiti, Samoa, and New Zealand, to our own Hawaii

"The Luau at the Hyatt offered many of the traditional Hawaiian foods. There was good variation in the food choices as well. The entertainment was exciting and pleasant, with professional hula dancers and fire dancers. Despite a few rain drops, which the staff at the Hyatt helped circumvent by passing out towels, it was a great evening. I definitely recommend it."

"We had a great time. My husband and I enjoyed the atmosphere and the show! Food was great, especially the desserts (coconut cake and pineapple upside down cake) and the crafts were fun to see too. Would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling and looking for some Hawaiian culture. Beautiful night!"

"The show, food, and waiter service were excellent. Our waiter provided our group with drinks throughout the two and one-half hours as well as removed all used dishes promptly, There was a large variety of food, all of which were excellent, Despite the large crowd the two buffet lines moved very quickly with little wait, and no wait on return visit or for the many assorted desserts. The show was very entertaining. After the show we were able to take pictures with the performers. The MC did a fine job introducing the various dances and explaining their origins. We were somewhat disappointed that the luau was moved indoors but the weather warranted the move. But the location was very large and open with an outdoor feel open feel to it."

"Good entertainment and great food. Get there early. The line is long and if you are at the end you end up in the back of the luau where it is hard to see and harder to hear.
Reservations thru open table are not pre paid. Paying is a separate line. Have most of your party stand in the entrance line and send one person to pay so you can go in when it is your time."
