Wailea Beach Marriott Te Au Moana
Te Au Moana means "ocean tide," which is all you need to know about the simply gorgeous backdrop for this south Maui luau. The evening begins with lei making, local crafts, and an imu (underground oven) ceremony. The tasty buffet serves local staples, including a plethora of desserts like carrot cake, macadamia-nut brownies, and key lime squares. The performance seamlessly intertwines ancient Hawaiian stories and contemporary songs with traditional hula and Polynesian dances, concluding with a jaw-dropping solo fire-knife dance. www.marriotthawaii.com.
