Since all of the luau's on Maui are priced within dollars of each other (except the really high end stuff), cost is not that much of a factor. Location for Maui Nui is great at the Sheraton, parking is validated in the garage, grounds are very nice and you have great views of Black Rock and the water. Group photos are about twice as expensive as they should be for a plain paper folder. Pretty good show including the non-Hawaiian fire dance but I guess it is expected. Drink line is a little long after the premade drinks get handed out.

We opted out of the full buffet and came later for the cocktail and show portion of this Luau. We were led to great seats and we thoroughly enjoyed the show and drinks! We ate a sit-down dinner elsewhere on property and were told to show up at 6:15. The bartender did a great job of mixing zero-proof drinks for the non-drinkers as well. The price was good, too!

Our family of 4 enjoyed this luau on the grounds of the Sheraton Maui Resort. It was our kids' (14 & 9) first luau, and they enjoyed trying a number of foods they hadn't experienced before, which was a "win" since these kids are notoriously picky eaters lol. The price tag for this event is high, but the venue, food quality, resort grounds, ocean views, and entertainment quality are top notch. Open bar, but the drink list was short and basic, no craft cocktails here. We (mom & dad) have been to 2 other Luaus; Grand Hyatt in Kauaii (which was similar to this one in venue and quality), and another on Oahu (can't remember the name) that was more "traditional" in the sense it was not on resort grounds, so felt more "traditional) (dirt ground, picnic tables, more casual staff, more buffet style food & drink). Both types have their pros and cons, so find a place that meets your style/mood/group. I'd recommend Maui Nui Luau for those looking for a more upscale, yet still very laid back, experience.

One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had on a vacation. Torrential downpour and high winds the whole time when we had called several times before hand and they had told us that it would have been moved indoors and we would been given the option of a refund if the weather would be bad. Clearly management didn’t want to give refunds, so it was forced outdoors and the weather was so bad we had to leave early. Every employee was also acting as if nothing was happening and that it was perfect weather which just added insult to injury. Food was left in the rain and was getting soaking wet and we were expected to eat as if we weren’t sitting in a monsoon. Will never pay for this experience again. Management down to employees need a reality check. Awful.

This luau is on the beautiful grounds of the Sheraton with the ocean and iconic Black Rock as a backdrop. I will say the walk from the valet drop off to the luau entrance was long for a mobility challenged member of our party. A few craft stations are set up around the area and professional photography is available (for a price). We were looking forward to watching the cliff diver at sunset, but he was upstaged by whales breaching just offshore! Don’t miss the Imu ceremony. Buffet is impressive and moved quickly.

Dancing is lovely and MC does a terrific job. The highlight of the evening is the fire dancing!

2nd time attending this luau; first time was ~8 years ago and it was better then. I say this because the fire dancing portion was more extensive and impressive back then, not sure why it was reduced. Even so, much preferred to Old Lāhainā Luau (which has no fire dancing at all).

You would never know they do this show three times a week the way the emcee greeted and welcomed the attendees and made everyone feel like ohana. The setting was beautiful, the performers were friendly and engaged, the emcee was amazing, the food was delicious, and the dancers did their thing. The experience introduced our kids to the Pacific Islands culture and they loved it. I'd definitely recommend - and go for the priority seating, worth it.

Went to this luau on our very last evening and it didn't disappoint. Host was very entertaining and funny. Dancers were amazing and the history behind the Hawaiian luau is very interesting. Weather turned out to be beautiful, which helps when you are sitting outside for a few hours.

Everything about this luau is outstanding!
The setting at the Sheraton looking out at the ocean was fantastic! The food was great, the show was amazing! They have a photographer ready to take pictures as you come in. We accidentally left our picture on our table when we left! The hotel gave us the name of the event photographer, Marty Coon, at
Photos by Hopson. He was so kind as to send a duplicate of our photo to us !!! We would have been so disappointed to not have our photo to remember that special night!
The luau was our favorite night in Maui !

We reserved early to have a table closer to the front. Maui Nui Luau uses family seating of groups of 10 at a round table. Easier to visit with all the other guests. Buffet was excellent in variety of choices and quality. Entertainment was the same as other luau's we have attended in the past.

We have been here 6 times and have enjoyed it each time. The food has been great each time. On our last visit we made new friends that were from South Korea. We did not understand many words that each other spoke, but we had a great time.
