Waikiki Starlight Luau offers an excellent dining experience with a variety of delicious food selections, including gluten-free desserts. The premier seating is well worth the extra cost, providing a fabulous show even when held indoors due to weather. The performers are described as awesome and very entertaining, though some guests found the emcee's dialogue to be offensive. While the food quality was mixed, with some dishes being dry or tough, the overall performance mostly made up for the meal. This luau is a suitable option for guests at the Hawaiian Village Resort who prefer not to leave the premises. However, some reviews mention the seating arrangement being more like a wedding with long tables, which made it less intimate than expected. Guests noted that the show was not on the lawn, but rather on a parking garage rooftop, impacting the atmosphere.
Additionally, while the show was praised, some felt everything felt rushed, from the activities to the time allowed for eating. Guests with Diamond tickets reported waiting in line for food while others were served earlier. There were also concerns about adults taking food from the kids' buffet, leading to disappointment when food ran out. Overall, while the luau has its highlights, there may be better alternatives available for those seeking a more personal experience.
