About Wailele Polynesian Luau
Spend a Ka'anapali evening at Wailele Polynesian Luau at The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, with a lei greeting, ocean and sunset views, open bar, all-you-can-eat luau buffet and a Polynesian show featuring Pele, Maui and fire-knife dancing.
Settle beneath the Aloha Pavilion's swaying palms and watch the sun dip toward Ka'anapali Beach while a Hawaiian greeting of fresh lei and music welcomes you. As twilight deepens, drums call you on a journey across Polynesia, from the legends of the fire goddess Pele and the demigod Maui to high-energy dances from Tahiti, Fiji, Samoa and New Zealand. Maui's most extreme troupe of fire-knife performers ignites the finale, their blades sparking against the evening sky.
