Maui Sunset Luau Cruise from Ma'alaea Harbor

Aloha, I've been waiting for someone to mention the "warrior dance". Yes, Kimo does a great job at engaging the guests who want to be part of the show during the warrior dance. Both Maka and Kimo bring so much genuine Aloha to the experience. Their approach is very much like going to Aunties house to enjoy family style authentic Polynesian song and dance up close. We have perfected this special event over many years, and are so glad you appreciated the food and entertainment. Our premium open bar is pretty nice too. Mahalo Nui Loa for joining us.

Mahalo for taking time to review our Maui Luau Sunset Dinner Cruise. It's always appreciated when guests like yourself have a fantastic experience with us. Our food is prepared in our own commercial kitchen just minutes from the harbor, and we are fortunate to enjoy Executive Chef Tania's amazing recipes. We provide a premium open bar and yes indeed, Kimo and Maka perform authentic Polynesian song and dance, passed down through their Ohana (families), and share their genuine Aloha with our guests in a very intimate setting.

I believe if you are worried about a dinner roll and salad and are gauge value in that way, then the shore based luaus might provide what you likely expect. Fortunately, Guests who truly understand the essence of what this tour is all about have also taken the time to share their experience. Our food is prepared in our own kitchen. Chef Tania’s fall off the bone baby back ribs are off the chain. Our fully stocked open bar with nice labels includes wines from Napa and Lodi county which pair nicely with the ribs and tender moist chicken, served alongside oven roasted fresh vegetables. The mango cheesecake is a nice finish for dessert. We serve ice cold locally micro brewed beers. We pour quality spirits, like Makers Mark bourbon, Ocean and Kettle One vodka, Crown Royal and Chivas Regal. Guests enjoy craft Tequilas and other premium libations. We are fortunate that most of our guests appreciate the rare opportunity to experience the journey Maka and Kimo share Their performance in such a unique and intimate setting is definitely not your garden variety luau. It’s more like coming home to your Hawaiian Ohana and actually experiencing the culture through genuine Polynesian song and dance, passed down through generations of their Ohana. It’s the quality of each component of the overall experience that makes this so special,

Aloha Kakahiaka, Mahalo Nui Loa for joining us and congratulations on your 10 year anniversary. It’s rewarding to hear reviews from guests like yourself, who appreciate the essence of what we set out to create. Our goal is for guests to feel the genuine Aloha Spirit that flows so naturally from two of the most beautiful and sincere people I have had the pleasure to know in over 40 years in the Hawaiian Islands. Maka and Kimo are a beautiful couple who were both raised with traditional Hawaiian values including the art of Polynesian dance and song, which flows effortlessly, as they share with our guests in an up close and intimate setting. Their performance felt authentic to you, because of their sincerity, passion, and respect they have for their craft, which has transcended generations of both their family’s genealogy. Yes it truly is a privilege and I am so pleased that you were moved and no doubt left with memories not soon forgotten. Mahalo, Scott

The beautiful Polynesian dance and song you mention as “shared”, is a special way to describe your experience. Kimo and Maka truly do share their genuine Aloha Spirit through their intimate Polynesian song and dance. I agree, for those interested in a unique cultural experience, the Maui Sunset Luau Dinner Cruise aboard Pride of Maui, is a must do! Mahalo Nui Loa, Scott Turner
