Experience Nutridge Luau
Visit an Oahu luau during your vacation on the island. Experience Nutridge Luau is one of the best! Taking place at the historic Nutridge Estate on a scenic mountaintop overlooking Waikiki, you’ll enjoy beautiful sunset and city views. The luau grounds are surrounded by a tropical forest, the perfect spot for a traditional Hawaiian luau!
Experience Nutridge luau includes interactive activities and cultural presentations, including the Hawaiian imu (underground oven) ceremony, which demonstrates how the ancient Hawaiians cooked their foods in an earthen oven. As the evening continues, all guests are invited to enjoy a delicious farm-to-table buffet dinner featuring a variety of island-style delicacies, such as roast pork and chicken.
Following dinner, sit back and enjoy an exciting Polynesian show. Unlike other Oahu luaus, Experience Nutridge Luau isn’t a big production, so you’ll enjoy a homestyle backyard luau with a more intimate atmosphere.
