Family good times!
We didn't stay at the hotel but went for the Luau. The Hotel lobby is very beautiful. Indoor waterfall and coy. With the bay as the back drop, the Luau was on the lawn. Food was great and the dancers were fun. Family good times for sure.

Summer sunset luau with spectacular views
The luau was spectacular. Staff greeted us and got us amazing seats! Super awesome since we’re locals and have never been. This is an amazing date spot, and I can’t wait to come back for more! The food was incredible and tasted like authentic Hawaiian food - similar to when I’ve been to luaus in Hawaii.

The fire dancer was a highlight!
Gorgeous resort hotel on Mission Bay with amazing bar (indoor and outdoor) with aquariums. The lobby has a koi pond and waterfalls. We attended their luau (which was awesome). Great buffet dinner (kalua pork, mahi mahi, chicken, 5 kinds of salads (including shrimp), veggies, rice, rolls, etc. So many different desserts. All the food was excellent. The Hawaiian music during dinner was great. The luau dancers were beautiful and talented. The fire dancer was a highlight! We will definitely be back!
