Kaula Lūʻau unfolds at Ocean’s Edge in Ko Olina, where the sun slips into the sea and the evening begins to glow with possibility.

This immersive, story-driven experience invites guests to wander through open-air culinary stations, savoring a vibrant array of island flavors at their own pace—returning as often as they please.

As twilight deepens, the night transforms into a captivating stage production that reimagines timeless cultural traditions through a bold, contemporary lens. Under a canopy of stars, live music, hula, chant, Tahitian and Samoan dance, acrobatics, and fire knife artistry converge in a seamless, high-energy performance that is as sophisticated as it is exhilarating.

In the evening, immerse yourself in the Kaula Luau—an engaging cultural celebration featuring traditional Hawaiian cuisine, live music, hula, and a thoughtfully curated evening performance honoring the stories and traditions of Hawaiʻi. Guests may choose to enjoy both experiences on the same day for a seamless afternoon-to-evening progression, or schedule the snorkel sail and luau on separate dates during their stay for added flexibility. This curated package offers a refined way to experience both the natural beauty of the ocean and the cultural richness of Ko Olina.
