Maui: Old Lahaina Luau

"You have to taste a culture to understand it." -Deborah Cater




Lei Greeting 




Imu Hawaiian Underground Oven




Open Bar all night

Ahi Poke

Pua’a Kalua

Traditional Hawaiian Feast 





Our first time in Hawaii, we obviously had to attend a luau. The Old Lahaina Luau is located on Front Street in Lahaina, and tends to be fully booked all year long, so I would recommend buying your tickets in advance. Upon arrival, we were greeted with leis and drinks from the lovely staff, then we were shown to our table. You can choose either Traditional (sitting on cushions on the floor with a low table) or a regular table and chairs. There were Island crafts and activities including the reveal of the Imu Hawaiian underground oven. The buffet had traditional Hawaiian food like Pua’a Kalua (roasted pork), Maui Style Fish, Ahi Poke and Poi (taro), and it was open bar all night. After dinner there was music, hula dancing and banana bread with guava butter. Mmmm you must try the guava butter!
