Astro Flyer Posted June 6, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) To me the OLL is the best "Hawaiian" luau but they've always explained that if you want to see "fire" that is another Polynesian culture & not Hawaiian so they do not perform fire dance. The Feast at Lele is operated by the same company in Lahaina across from the beach. It's a sit down gourmet meal with entertainment & food from 4 Polynesian cultures & a wide variety of drinks. It is a little bit more & you could go to their website and also search this forum for the Feast at Lele. http://www.feastatlele.com Another positive is that it's not too far to walk to from the Lahaina tender pier.

"The famed fire knife dance is an important component to their culture and fitting end to our show". It's an enjoyable experience to Hawaii, New Zealand, Tahiti & Samoa. :) Edited June 6, 2015 by Astro Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted June 7, 2015 #6 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) I found this recent review on Trip Advisor that said "No fire dancing tho" so it's still not available because it's Samoan & not Hawaiian which is what the OLL only provides. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g60634-d104288-Reviews-Old_Lahaina_Luau-Lahaina_Maui_Hawaii.html Edited June 7, 2015 by Astro Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gusandgidgetsmom Posted July 9, 2015 #8 Share Posted July 9, 2015 OLL hands down the best. Traditional so no fire as the others stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southerngirl528 Posted July 9, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 9, 2015 If you've never been to a luau, I suggest Old Lahaina Luau on Maui. If you have, Feast at Lele. I have been to both and they are excellent and very authentic. Our first trip to Hawaii, we did OLL. Great history and storytelling woven into the dancing. Both have gorgeous settings right on the beach facing west so you most often will get some sort of lovely sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan/reserve early as this past week they were booked and did the feast, while nice not as good IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
