Description
Germaine’s Luau is an experience like no other. From the moment you arrive, you will feel the spirit of aloha. Our traditional luau captures the true essence of Hawaii. As you enter our oceanfront property, you will be greeted by our friendly staff. Make your way to our open-air imu, where our kalua pig is cooking underground. The smell of cooking food will make your mouth water. Our delicious luau buffet features traditional Hawaiian favorites, as well as American and international cuisine. As the sun sets, take your seat on our sandy beach and enjoy our award-winning Polynesian revue. Our talented dancers will entertain you with thrilling fire knife dances, hula, and much more.
The luau is technically the top of young taro plants prepared with coconut cream, chicken, or octopus. Served at celebrations in Hawaii since the 1800s, this dish came to symbolize all Hawaiian festivities, once called 'ahaainas' meaning feasting. The celebrations had community binding implications, and they were meant to honor the gods. Eventually, the religious intents fell away, and almost all such festivities came to be known as luaus.
Festivities like these are one of the most celebrated parts of any good Hawaii trip, and Germaine’s Luau is the perfect way to experience the true spirit of Hawaii. Come join us for an unforgettable evening!
