Hyatt Luau Drums of the Pacific begins with the call of the conch, the beating of the drums and the echoes of the Hawaiian chant. Hawaii’s most exciting luau is complete with an authentic imu ceremony and the exotic flavors of native Hawaiian cuisine.

The authentic dances and music of the old Hawaii, Samoa, Fiji, New Zealand, Tahiti, Tonga, and Rarotonga are featured in the Drums of the Pacific Polynesian Spectacular (a Tihati Production). You will journey through the islands of Polynesia as you enjoy the tastes of Hawaii, and end your evening with a three-man fire knife dance!

As you arrive, you will be greeted with a flower lei for the ladies and a shell lei for the gentlemen. Listen to the music of Hawaii as you participate in hula lessons, coconut tree climbing, poi ball lessons and finally the unearthing of the pig that’s been cooked in an underground oven.

This Hawaiian Lu’au Feast is an all-you-can-eat generous buffet! It features Huli Huli Chicken, Kalua Pork, Island Fish, Vegetables Makamaka w/Medalions of Baked Molokai Purple Sweet Potato, Creamed Taro Leaf w/Coconut Milk, Polynesian Rice, Soba Noodles, Pickled Maui Onions, Lomi Lomi Salmon, Poi , Pacific Ahi Poke, Tossed Green Salad, Fresh Sliced Tropical Fruits, and Taro rolls w/Whipped Lilikoi Butter.
