Annual Talega HOA Luau in San Clemente

Talega San Clemente is usually our most extravagant luau of the year!  Lei greeters, island decorations, craft "villages" for the kids, catering for 650 people, and a Polynesian show including a live band!

This year was wonderful! You guys did a fabulous job and I really appreciate working with you. I’m going to meet with my team later this week and I will let you know of any changes for next year!

I can’t say enough good things about Maril and Islanders Luau! We hired them for our company picnic luau at Lake Mission Viejo. Maril and his team were exceptional—very personable and professional! The island demonstrations and Tiki Photo Booth were big hits, and now we know how to crack a coconut! Such a fun demo!!! The show was wonderful and entertaining, and the island music playing throughout the event was lovely! The food was not just good—it was fantastic! The Islanders crew was very well organized and on top of everything!! I recommend this company to anyone looking for a quality, lovely island experience to enhance their event!!

CEO wants Islanders Luau to come back twice yearly!

We decorated a company's parking lot in San Diego, grilled our teriyaki chicken, served it on our gorgeous buffet, gave guests custom tattoos, and entertained them with our lovely hula maidens and our fierce haka warriors. The CEO was pretty happy....

"The Legendary Luau!"

A law firm in Carlsbad hired us for their company luau, and they asked for the works--lots of dancers, full-catering, a pig, photo booth, and decor.  

Islander’s Luau put on an amazing event for my firm party of 80 people. Everything was perfect—every person on the team was very nice, personable, professional, and easy to work with. The food was excellent and the show was fabulous. My co-workers are calling the party THE LEGENDARY LUAU!!

50th Wedding Anniversary

A review that is this positive is quite intimidating for us to live up to, but the Islanders Luau crew truly strives to make each event the very best possible.  We know that our customers are throwing a party for very special reasons, and it is important for us to make it a success!

I cannot Thank you enough for the amazing evening you created by bringing the Islands to us for my parents’ 50th Anniversary!

Ohana is the best word I can think of to describe Maril and the Islander’s Luau! Words can hardly describe how Maril and his family far exceeded all of our expectations for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary! My parents have visited the Islands of Hawaii for the last 50 years of their marriage as a place for vacation, rejuvenation, and for the love of each other and the Islands!
When I first spoke with Maril he stated that they would bring the Islands to us!! That is the very best explanation to describe all that Maril brought to our celebration! The experienced dancers, the delicious food, the authentic music, the engaging costumes, and the warm people of the Islands created the passion for the Islands! Everyone that had ever attended a luau in Hawaii, stated, commented, and expressed that the Islander’s Luau was the very best Luau that they had ever attended!!
I will say that Maril felt like family the moment I met him and I chose Islander’s Luau simply by looking on the internet and talking to Maril over the phone! He is a genuine, personable, warm, authentic, professional, courteous, talented, engaging, and an impressive Chief!!
I know that my Daughter and my Father both posted a review to Yelp. I was also able to post a review on Yelp but the site continues to say it is having a problem. This is what I posted to Yelp and please feel free to re-post if you can get the google site to work.
Thank you Maril and your family so sincerely for being a part of our family, ohana! Mahalo

Kindest and Warmest regards!

Toro Company Party

We worked with Patrice for over a year (!) to help her plan her company luau for 180 people at Toro Irrigation Company in Riverside. It included some great island props, pig ceremony and the show. Since they were on a tight schedule we organized the catering so that we fed all 180 people in about 20 mins. Even though their business presentations went over their time schedule, we were able to make up for it and accomplish their luau event on-time.

I’ve gotten lots of emails and complements this morning on what a great event we had yesterday and what a great time people had…you all put on a wonderful show, and the food was great! One person also asked for your info as he is going to suggest you guys for his friend’s sister’s wedding reception. Hopefully this will generate more business for you all! Again, thank you so much…it was great working with you!!

25 Years of Aloha!

Islanders Luau helped Irene and Ken celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary with island catering, entertainment and a Photo Booth!

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Islanders luau—we had one of the most beautiful Anniversaries ever. They were very accommodating and very friendly, helpful & extremely courteous. They were on time and the food was fantastic, and the entertainment was exceptionally beautiful!!!! Our guests were blown away how everything had ran smoothly and on time. To this day they are still talking about it. We wish to thank Maril and his staff for the most memorable anniversary party ever. Islanders Luau deserves five stars, hands-down!

Two reviews for one event!

Islanders Luau was asked to come to Newport Dunes for a company's Family and Friends Luau, and not only did the company write a great review, but the Newport Dunes Manager did, too! This place is fun for the whole family! 

I was so impressed with Islanders Luau!! What a great entertainment experience for all!! The Newport Dunes will definitely use your company for all future events with a luau theme!! Thank you!
— --Kristi M., Corporate Sales Manager
My company hired Islanders Luau for the entertainment portion only, since the venue would not allow outside food vendors. The entire team was professional and courteous, and they showed up when they said they would to set up. We had the decor, band, male and female dancers and lei greeter. They really made our company/client event special and everyone had a great time! Thank you again to Maril and his team for a job well done!

Vintner's Grove Luau

Guests in Rancho Cucamonga were greeted with the wonderful aroma of Islanders on-site grill, while they were entertained with our Islanders "Villages" getting island tattoos, making leis, and learning the hula.  Our Teriyaki Chicken Bowl and Pulled-Pork Bowl with grilled vegetables were enjoyed by all.   The evening was topped off by Islander Luau hula girls and a fire dancer!

Thank you, again, to your AMAZING STAFF AND ENTERTAINERS!!! Residents are still telling me how much fun they had!

Island Wedding in San Diego

Islanders Luau was flattered to be chosen by a Polynesian bride's family who take their Hawaiian food very seriously! 

Islanders Luau, thank you so much for helping our wedding turn out more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed of! Thank you especially for helping choose the tropical flowers, beause we had no idea where to begin. Thank you, Maril, for the amazing food and service you provided. I had so many compliments on the food and display! ♡♡♡

Online review from a happy customer....
_MG_1492.jpg
OMG, if you want to throw an amazing luau and guarantee a fabulous time, then look no further than Islanders Luau!!! We just used them for our party this past Saturday night and they did a FANTASTIC job. The accolades that we have been (and still are) receiving from our guests are out of this world. Everything they did from the gorgeous floral arrangements to the island props to the hula girls and fire dancer were sensational. Maril and his team are the best of the best, I will use them again and again and I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

A luau fit for a king!

Children's birthday parties are enjoyed by all ages when Islanders Luau gets involved.

We had Islanders cater our son’s 5th Birthday Luau-as well as perform a show-it brought us back to our recent trip to Maui where we attended the best Luau on the island....that was our intent-to share what we experienced with our friends&family (some of whom are Hawaiian). It was a perfect day for our little king. I have already recommended them to others.

Retirement luau in Van Nuys

On Tuesday Islanders Luau was on hand to help ElectroRent say Aloha and farewell to a retiring employee who had worked for over 40 years to build the company.  It was a pleasure for Islanders Luau to work with the ElectroRent team who was just as passionate about their special luau as we were.  Together we were able to provide a luau experience at their company location that will not be forgotten in retirement nor by all who worked over the details to make sure that the Aloha send-off represented their love and gratitude.  The wife of the person retiring came up to us to thank us personally and a member of the company team wrote the following:

Thank you so very much for an enjoyable event. You and your workers were absolutely the best. The food was fabulous. It was a pleasure doing business with you.
