Gilligans' Island Luau is an intimate luau experience and is the only luau in Kihei on Maui. Our luau is less than one quarter the size of the average luau in Hawaii. So, every seat is a great view of the show. The show is a mesmerizing journey through various types of Polynesian culture presented in a fun and engaging format. Through storytelling, audience participation and remarkable performances, we present an experience unavailable anywhere else. Locally owned and operated, Gilligans is located on the Maui Nui Golf Course. With our small venue, we sell out quickly. Reserve your seats today!
