Wailea Marriott Luau presents Te Au Moana Luau
Wailea Marriott Resort and Spa offers Te Au Moana Luau in Wailea located on the south shore of Maui. The beautiful ocean front setting on the lawn of the Marriott Resort is a fantastic location to enjoy a stunning sunset in Maui. This Maui Luau provides seating that faces the ocean during the luau feast and the Te Au Moana show, because the stage backdrop is the South Pacific Ocean! No one can ever create a more natural and beautiful backdrop scenery than mother earth. The Te Au Moana Luau presents the ancestral stories of voyages, hardships, relationships, and customs of people from Polynesia and Hawaii. In ancient Hawaii, men ate their meals separately from women. In 1819, King Kamehameha II eliminated certain religious taboos and hosted a feast to celebrate the integration of men and women. This symbolic act ended this ancient tradition and the luau was set in motion. The most common and favorite dish served at these feasts was a combination of tender young leaves of the taro plant and chicken baked in coconut milk called luau. The name was adopted and today we refer to a celebration feast as a “Hawaiian Luau.” Discover the intricate skills ancient Polynesians perfected just for survival. They became skilled in gathering, fishing, tapa making, hunting, and planting. They were also gift giving people, lived for romance, and had a strong belief in deity. Enjoy not only a delicious feast, but history, culture, and entertainment. Experience an unforgettable journey with Te Au Moana Luau, the best in Maui.
