City Ventures Luau, Buena Park

"I would like to say thank you.  Your guys were great, the food was very good, the service and the show.  Wow, it was amazing!  DJ, music, Hula dancers and the whole crew were really great.  It is definitely TWO THUMPS UP,  10/10,  highly recommended.  We’ll keep in touch.”   --Anh

The Islanders catered the City Ventures Apartment Complex's Community Luau with delicious Hawaiian food, including a whole roasted pig, then entertained the guests with hula dancers and fun men's numbers.  The Islanders trained a guest to lei greet under our surfboard backdrop, and she was so happy with everything,  that we got her enthusiasm on video!

Moreno Valley School District Luau

Not only did the Islanders decorate the gym at the high school, but they provided island villages where students could weave headbands out of fresh palm leaves and orchids, get temporary island tattoos, take Hawaiian hula dance lessons, and see a coconut opening demo complete with fresh coco rice.  Maril dressed up some of the boys from the district and they carried in a whole roasted pig right before the luau began.

"This is the best this gym has ever looked and ever will look!  This is absolutely amazing!  Absolutely gorgeous!!"  --  A mom at the event

Misty's Luau Birthday Party

“Thank you for doing an awesome job at the party.  Misty was extremely happy and we both thought you and your team did great.  It was nice to meet Susiana, your mother, as well.”  --Mark

Mark threw an elaborate luau for his wife, Misty, in Rancho Santa Fe.  Maril made several trips to the venue to plan it out. Islanders hula dancers greeted each guest with a fresh orchid lei, while the steel drum band played festive island music.  Mark hired Maril to decorate with huge tikis and a canoe full of fresh flowers.  Maril dressed some of Mark’s friends in island garb and sent them out with a whole roasted pig on their shoulders to signal that dinner was served. Guests enjoyed the catered Hawaiian Barbecue Buffet, fresh Hawaiian shredded pork, and then a professional hula show. Several guests plan to hire the Islanders for their own parties!

A Desert Luau

It was a long drive up there, but it definitely ended up a great experience for Mic and his family. You wouldn't have thought you were in the desert by the warmness that was felt in that Luau atmosphere that evening. We could have been in Hawaii! 

“The performance and show that your people put on was outstanding and everything from you to your team was very professionally handled. I have to say that, that was one of the best show/parties that I have ever been to.”

— Mr. Hess

Indian Wells

Hoping that the rain wouldn’t come down, Islanders Luau was asked to help with a 70th Birthday Luau in early April at the Indian Wells Country Club.  It was a great time with our on-site Hawaiian BBQ Grill, Polynesian entertainment and island props and décor.  Everyone at the event had been to Hawaii many times but they didn’t realize that we could bring the islands to them right there in the desert.  Here was their reaction provided to us on the following day.

“Absolutely fabulous event, thanks to you and the Islanders Luau team! Many, many comments that this was the best party of the season! All aspects were exemplary - the food, entertainment, decorations, and the businesslike manner in which this event was put together! Your staff was most pleasant and efficient. I can hardly wait to plan another Luau complete with the Kalua pig, Islander band and many more dancers!

Please feel free to use our reference to future clients. I have planned many events over the past 30 years, both personal and corporate, and am most impressed by how efficiently the process was in pulling this event together. It was worth every cent!”

Farewell Luau near Old Town San Diego

Its always hard to say “Aloha Oe” to family and friends when you are leaving, but easier done island-style.  This was the case as Islanders Luau helped a family say good-bye as they were moving from their beautiful San Diego home.  Family and friends were treated to live Hawaiian music as they walked into the luau and before long everyone was enjoying the beautiful buffet with Hawaiian short ribs, teriyaki chicken and veggies all grilled on-site.  The Polynesian show brought lasting memories especially as friends performed the Hula together, then witnessed the Samoan fire dance. 

Harley Davidson Bike Nights

Islanders Luau helped out with our third annual Harley Davidson Bike Night.  The Bikers love the teriyaki chicken grilled on-site and of course the whole roasted pig.  When the sun goes down everyone goes inside for the Polynesian show then its pictures on the bikes.  

Polynesian Wedding in Murrieta

It was cold outside but you wouldn’t know it as you stepped inside and was taken on a show tour to the islands Hawaii, Tahiti, New Zealand, Samoa, Fiji and Tokelau.  Each of these islands were represented with traditional dances performed from each.  Even the bride was taught the “Siva Siva" from Samoa and did a surprise performance while the Islander family sang the traditional Taualuga.  The wedding also featured the traditional Hawaiian Wedding song, beautifully performed.   The room was totally transformed to a beautiful tropical island with beautiful island props, tropical flower arrangements and palm trees.  The island feast was initiated with the traditional Pua’a pig ceremony.  Then it was time to enjoy the Islanders Luau buffet table with island favorite dishes including: Hula Chicken, Kaneohe fried rice, Hawaiian Mac Salad, Susiana Cabbage Salad, Hawaiian Short Ribs and much much more…

“I was shocked to see the island life take place inside. The food was delicious and the love songs played on guitar before the show brought a smile to my face. It was so much fun being part of the islands for my reception.”

— Breanna - The bride

Long Beach Boat Parade

Islanders Luau gave the Long Beach Boat Parade an Island flair with our Hawaiian BBQ, complete with the whole roasted pig, Sidewalk Island entertainment and of course our island props and décor. The spacing was so close during the fire dance that the audience could feel the fire. As people walked by the whole roasted pig, Chef Kimo offered teasers to those who couldn’t resist asking. 

Talega HOA

Islanders Luau completed our 4th year at Talega in San Clemente. There we performed and served over 600 guests.  This is the thank you note we just received:

“Thank you so much for all your hard work at Talega’s luau. You guys rocked it this year. Everything was wonderful from the pig ceremony to the food, to the Polynesian villages and the entertainment. You have outdone yourselves. We look forward to this event with you again!! Thank you!”
