Smith Family Garden Luau
Located within the beautiful Wailua River Valley, come experience Hawaiian tradition and become a part of the Smith Ohana with the most famous of Hawaiian celebrations. Food may be the heart of a luau, but music is the soul. Hawaiian ancestors preserved their history by passing down songs and chants called mele. At this luau, celebrate these traditions, as well as the songs and dances from other cultures that live in this tropical paradise. The lyrical sway of the Hawaiian hula, the colorful precision of the Tahitian drum dances and the fiery emotion of the Samoan fire knife dance all speak deeply of the people who have come to call Hawaii home
