Royal Kona Lūʻau – Lūʻau Features
Overlooking Kailua Bay
Located on the east coast of Hawai'i’s Big Island, Kailua Bay is known for its stunning turquoise waters and white sand beaches. Enjoy stunning ocean views overlooking the bay while you sip on a mai-tai or wait in line for the buffet. As the sun sets across the sky, Kailua Bay provides the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
Polynesian Entertainment
Sit down and relax while we take you through a Hawaiian musical journey, filled with the music of the South Pacific islands. This spectacular Royal Kona show includes multiple groups of singers, dancers, drummers, and much more. You’ll watch unique performances not seen at an average lūʻau and experience a Samoan fire-knife dance finale.
A Celebration Of Hawaiian History
Discover the rich history of Hawai'i's unification by King Kamehameha I. The Polynesians arrived between 1000 and 1200 AD, setting the stage for a thriving Kingdom of Hawai'i known for its agricultural abundance and strategic Pacific position. Immerse yourself in the tales of a land where tradition and prosperity meet on these beautiful islands.
