Hawaii is comprised of eight major islands and many smaller islands and atolls. These islands all cater to tourists, yet each island has its own character. You can participate in a Hawaii luau on any of the islands. The collection of islands is known as Hawaii, and the largest island is also called Hawaii. It is by far the largest in size, but not in population.
Hawaii is called the Big Island. This nickname may be to eliminate confusion of the outsiders and to help them distinguish the Hawaii island from the state of the same name. Kona coffee plantations are big on the island and an important source of revenue. The five volcanoes alone would be worth the trip. The surrounding Pacific Ocean is home to vibrant coral reefs and dolphins and whales.
The festivities usually last about three and a half hours. Most luaus held here are presented by a high end hotel located on the Big Island. Each luau follows a different theme, but maintains the traditions of the feast.
King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel has one called the Island Breeze Luau. As guests arrive they are greeted with a shell lei. Guests will have some time to participate in traditional arts and crafts. Then watch as the imu is uncovered and the steamed pig revealed. The imu is the underground oven where the pig is cooked. A special attraction is the arrival of the Royal Court dressed in all its traditional regalia and making its grand entrance on an outrigger canoe. The luau buffet is ready for the guests. The buffet is followed by a Polynesian revue that includes exciting entertainment based on the Hawaiian culture.
The Gathering of the Kings Luau is at the Fairmont Orchid Hotel. The food is a fusion of Polynesian and Hawaiian. The full menu includes exotic foods and simpler items such as macaroni and cheese for the kids. A mixture of Polynesian and modern dance will tell the stories of the kings and how each king is forever linked to the one star that guided him. The revue includes hula dancers and a knife and fire dance. Breathe taking from beginning to end.
You might select the Haleo Luau at the Sheraton Kona Resort. This particular one focuses strongly on the history of the culture and is most educational for the guests. The events are held under the hala trees where guests are immersed in the Hawaiian culture and history. The show will tell the stories of significant events in history, like the birth of King Kamehameha III and the surfing stories from another king, King Kalakaua. Many westerns do not realize that Hawaii was a monarchy for most of its history.
The Royal Kona Luau at the Royal Kona Resort is most like the Island Breeze at the King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel but is described as the best value. The show tells the story of the ancient Polynesian journey traveling thousands of miles by way of the Pacific Ocean to make their home in Kona. The evening ends with a Samoan fire dance.
Each of these luaus is wonderful in its own unique way. You cannot make a bad choice. With fine dining steeped in culture you will learn something about the Hawaiian people. This feast will round out your time in paradise.
