Experiencing a Slack Key concert at the beautiful Napili Kai Beach resort is amazing, a true highlight when visiting Maui...a must do! Host George Kahumoku, Jr and guests provide a memorable evening of authentic Hawaiian music. These outstanding Grammy Award winning musicians demonstrate a wonderful non traditional method of tuning their instruments Hawaiian-style...just lovely! We bought some of their CD's... More

We loved the Slack Key Show with George Kahumoku Jr. showcasing Ledward Kaapana, GrandMaster. The music was wonderful, unbelievable sounds and the evening included elegant hula dancers and and an instrumental duet by Da Ukulele Boyz, Peter deAquino and Garrett Probst along with others. This was eye-opening Hawaiian guitar music showcased in the great outdoor theatre at Napili Kai Beach... More

Wow, what a great time. The venue is pretty basic, but you are there for the great music. Entertaining, greatly enjoyed by all in our party of five. Guest was Leeward Kaapana, and the house band Sterling Seaton and the Ukelele Boyz were great as well.

We loved this show--a small-scale show with a really homey feel to it. Loved the atmosphere & the music. The guest was Nathan Aweau, and I especially enjoyed his performance. It was most interesting to see the hula performed to contemporary music, but with a nod to traditionalism. Loved it! George Kahumoko was really interesting--and Da Ukelele Boyz were awesome.... More

We found the Slack Key show from someone's trip review and just had to attend. It's on Wednesday nights only. The first part of the show kinda dragged, but it got much better from there. Our show featured Waipuna and they were just awesome. After a brief intermission there was a jam session with all three artists. This was fun... More

You'll learn about Hawaii and its culture while enjoying beautiful music played by Grammy-Award winning musicians. The commentary is easy going and light--perfect accompaniment for the music. Once a week, the show takes place. Don't miss this--it is real Hawaii.

Love this spot. Only resturaunt in Maui with a menu more than 4 pages. Love the atmosphere, the view, and especially the food. Also love John, our waiter for 34 years. We ate here 3 times on this trip. Sometimes the food service is a bit slow, but we enjoy a leisurely cocktail and conversation, and especially the music, so... More

Visitors will appreciate this show for the same reason we locals do: it is laid back, comfortable and authentic! Unless you have a particular performer you want to see, you can go any Wednesday and hear George Kahumoko, Jr. as well as Da Ukulele Boyz, (Peter deAquino & Garrett Probst) and Sterling Seaton sing, play & talk story and know...
