Seeking recommendations for luaus on Maui.
LOVE LOVE LOVE The Feast at LeiLei. You wont be dissappointed. Worth the $$!
I've been to both OLL and Feast at Lele.
No matter which luau you choose, Wall3433, I would recommend you book early. Especially if you are going for either OLL or FAL. They assign seating accordingly to booking seniority. That said, there really is not a "bad" seat at either location IMHO.
Hawaii is the loveliest of places and the Aloha spirit is still very much alive and well there. I find if one takes plenty of time to just "be" and soak in the sweetness of the breezes, the vivid colors and drop-dead gorgeous scenery, they can almost watch their cares and stresses fall away. Ahhhhhhhh..
I wish people would read what I write instead of assuming I said something different. I simply said Feast at Lele is considerably more expensive "if that is a consideration" and never indicated that it was not outstanding or that one should not go because of the cost. But I know from other posts on TUG that a $15 per person difference would likely be significant to some people, so I pointed it out. I thought it was important to note because the most commonly recommended one is the less expensive one. I said absolutely nothing that was critical of Feast of Lele.
As for it being "considerably more expensive," I stand by my comment. I think it is interesting that the last time I went to book OLL at the tour desk at Maui Ocean Club, OLL was sold out the night of our first choice and the agent said that Feast at Lele was also very good but that is was "quite a bit more expensive." We like OLL best so we booked an alternate night for that reason.
Does MOC provide any discount for OLL, Feast of Lele, or any other luau? We've been to several luau's in past, stopped going for the last few times we've been to Hawaii, but thinking of going again. Never been to the OLL, so curious if there are any discounts anywhere. Been searching on the web a little, and it sounds like there isn't?
