Behind Hawaii’s Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort, the ancient seaside trail Ala Kahakai runs along magnificent Anaeho’omalu Bay, passes two fishponds in which mullet and other valuable fish were once protected for the use of Hawaiian royalty. In the days of King Kamehameha, runners would race along the trail with fresh fish for his dinner table. Could there possibly be a more appropriate setting for a royal luau?
Beginning at 5:30, guests gather for the Waikoloa Beach Marriott Luau as the sun slowly sinks over the water. They arrive along winding paths cut into petroglyph-engraved lava rock. Soon the sounds of a conch shell and an ancient chant of welcome invite them to share the spectacle of the Luau’s imu opening.
In this underground pit, a pig has been roasting in banana leaves since early morning to provide Kalua pork, the dish at the heart of every luau. The Waikoloa Beach Marriott Luau menu, however, has variety enough to please every palate and appetite. Other Hawaiian specialties include the salad bar’s Lomi Lomi Salmon, Waipio Fern Salad, Hawaiian Tako (Squid) and Cucumber Salad, and Hawaiian Coleslaw.
No adventure in Hawaiian cuisine could possibly be complete without pineapple, coconut, and other tropical fruits. They appear in the salad bar’s Indonesian Ginger and Curry Chicken Salad with toasted Coconut, and Pineapple Spears and Papaya Sections, and on the irresistible Dessert Table as Pineapple Upside Down Cake, Coconut Cake, Guava Chiffon Cake, and the unforgettable Lilikoi Haupia (Passionfruit Coconut Pudding).
Following the feast, the entire torchlit scene transforms as the dancers, musicians, and drummers of ”Tihati’s Polynesia” transport guests on a sixty minute whirlwind tour of the South Pacific, from Hawaii to Tahiti, New Zealand, and finally Samoa. The three hour evening ends even more magically than it began, with their performance of the mesmerizing Samoan fire and knife dance!
