Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Mahalo Nui Loa !! Pleasure is our Business... So glad you enjoyed the entertainment and Happy 80th !!
Our best luau performance so far! We have our annual luau every year and Kiki is our member’s favorite so far. She’s beautiful, funny and a true performer. She dances and speaks the language beautifully. She also includes the audience in her show and it’s hilarious. Very professional and very kind.
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Mahalo Hillary, for the Great Review ! So glad your group enjoyed the performance and it was a pleasure working with you.
We booked a Ukulele player for one hour while the parents looked around at their children's art work. He and I assume, an assistant arrived 30min. prior to the event starting. He walked around while playing the Ukulele. I have to say it was fantastic! Definitely will book with this company again!
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Mahalo for the Nice comments ! We are so glad you liked the Ukulele Soloist and took the time to send a review.
We hired a Hawaiian guitarist and dancer for a party at our home, and it really made the event come to life! Both showed up on time, we’re professional, and everyone loved the show. It was an intimate event, with 22 people including 4 kids, and this made the Luau extra special.
We had a wonderful event with JD playing the ukulele and guitar. Thank you!
This was the best entertainment we have had in years at our conventions. Everyone participated and they were all talking about it after the event. It could not have gone better. We have folks from 20 to 80 and they all loved it. Thank you so much for putting a spark in our Convention.
So so good! Highly recommend for any party.
Ok

Beautiful and talented. Hightlight of our family reunion.
This was the highlight of our family reunion. The dancers were beautiful and talented. Getting our entire family up to do the hula was priceless. Thank you!

We were looking for a traditional fire dancer to spice up our virtual Happy Hour and ohhh did they bring the heat!!! Very professional, good communication, audio testing beforehand.

Thanks so much for the Great Review... and Mahalo for using Island Breeze Entertainment for your Party.
Loved the traditional Hawaiian dancing and learning more about the culture.
The Dancer was very engaging with the audience, I give her a 5 star rating. I thought there were going to be 2 musicians and 1 dancer?
Awesome interactive entertainment ❤️They made my event memorable and very special.
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Thank so much ... for using Island Breeze Entertainment for your Luau.
These guys were so nice, professional and fun
The dancers were great!
We booked with Island Breeze Entertainment for a Labor Day Luau that our country club hosted. The performers were great to work with. Very professional and did a great job sharing the spirit of aloha. We will definitely book with them for similar events in the future.
I planned a luau-themed corporate dinner event which and used hired three different performers through Island Breeze. Stan was very good at communication and worked with me and the venue contact to make sure everything would go smoothly. The performers were polite, professional and fun! Peter and Vanessa played some beautiful traditional music and Kilani's hula instructions were a big hit.
They were awesome! The guests had so much fun learning Hawaiian/Tahitian dances. We will not hesitate to book them again.
There was a lot of dialogue to explain the cultural significance of each of the dances to really bring home the spirituality of the Hawaiian culture and this was very appreciated. Overall professional and pleasant show.
Beautiful! The whole crowd was entertained! Loved every moment of it. Multiple compliments from my guests! Such a sweet girl ❤️
Awesome, awesome, awesome! This is the best show I've ever seen or worked with!! You MUST book this group if you want real entertainment....show is exciting and very entertaining! Can't say enough!! The drums, the dancers, the music was excellent....we will definitely be booking them for our next Luau Week here at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park!!
Rick and Stan were both very easy to plan the event with and were very accommodating when setting up for the event. The dancers were amazing, involved the crowd, and everyone at the party enjoyed the performance! I would definitely recommend this entertainment group to anyone that is searching for a true Hawaiian experience.
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Thanks So much for the Great Review !!! It's our Pleasure to provide a Quality , Authentic Polynesian Luau experience for you and your guests... Stan , Island Breeze Entertainment
We had Island Breeze come out of a birthday/luau party. This was the first time that we hired hula dancers and they were a great addition to our luau! The hula dancers performed various dances from the different islands. Some dances were slow and traditional and others were really fast Tahitian dances. One dancer in particular, really showed her love for the hawaiian dances. We will definitely consider them if we ever need hula dancers again!
We did not have a great idea of what we wanted, but Island breeze took the time to answer our questions and worked with us to find performers that fit our party and fit our budget. The show was great, the dancers were professional and polished. A one stop shop for hawaiian/polynesian entertainment.
Thank you.
Island Breeze is very professional and tailored the performance according to my request. Everyone from first time to seasoned islanders enjoyed the showmanship of the performance. I will definitely use Island Breeze again. Thank you for taking us to the Big Island. Mahalo!
The ladies were entertaining. Excellent! Engaging! My next event I will call them and recommend others do so.
Asia came and danced for our senior citizens of The Dallas Ranch Commons. They thoroughly enjoyed her warm performance and she was patient and talented. Everyone enjoyed her talents and it topped off our luau event held for the seniors
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Thanks so much for the Great Review !! And for Considering Island Breeze Entertainment for your Event needs... Mahalo
The dancer was great. She arrived early and did one dance and a "teach" with the kids. I inquired about the 2nd dance and costume change as contracted- thought the costume would be fancier. No photo op time with dancer & the music was barely audible. Not what I was expecting.
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Sorry to hear of your disappointment with this performance. I understood that you would provide a sound system that would be adequate for this performance and that there was no electricity being a park setting. We normally do not do it costume change with only one dancer because it would put a stop to the entertainment flow. The dancer was available for pictures following the performance but no one took her up on that. However, in consideration of your disappointment.. I am more than willing to refund $50 of this performance.
Our dancer was on time, prepared and a great dancer, too!
Thank you, Island Breeze!
Fun fun
Lauren did an excellent job. Professional. Entertained without missing a step. Friendly. Everyone had an excellent time
Easy! Thank you!
Great and professional dancers. The audience was very engaged and entertained.
Great dancers, professional, punctual, good crowd interaction.
The Tahitian Duo was great. The kids were very engaged and had fun. One less star because we paid for the candy lei making and supplies and they took half of them when they left.
I wanted to surprise a friend, who's from Hawaii, with th a birthday serenade and it couldn't have been better! The performer was authentic and very talented, and he made everyone feel involved. I will definitely recommend you guys!!
Ukulele player was awesome..played for ceremony and during our dinner..My favorite ..White Sandy Beach..he sang great also!!
Our dancer got people up and involved! What a lovely lady! She came late due to traffic but communicated well, and take a breath people we had a great time!

Thanks for using Island Breeze Entertainment for your party...
Pleasure is our Business...
The entertainment was awesome! The two young ladies were professional, entertaining and very engaging. My husband and guest enjoyed the experience and the girls were very nice! I will use Gig Salad again and I will share this with my friends. Thank you.
Great show.
The guitar/ukulele player (I apologize I can't remember his name" arrived early (which was good) and played and sang lovely Hawaiian music for us. I would definitely recommend your services.
We had both a hula dancer and fire dancer and they were excellent for our Hawaiian themed party. Kids loved the fire!
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Thanks so much for using Island Breeze Entertainment !!
The hula dancers were on time, very professional and danced beautifully. Thank you for coming to our party. We truly had a wonderful time.

Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Thanks so much for the nice comments and for using Island Breeze Entertainment for your Luau entertainment needs. Mahalo Nui Loa !!!
Danielle was wonderful with the girls! She came on time and spent time answering their questions about dance and Hawaii at the end. The show was perfect and all of the girls had a great time interacting with her. Great experience and would recommend this company and this performer!
Response from Island Breeze Entertainment:
Mahalo... for the nice comments and for using Island Breeze Entertainment for your Luau Entertainment needs.
Our musician showed up on time and played just what we wanted for our low key event. Perfect
Prompt, friendly and well worth the price. Very talented dancing and singing. We highly recommend this group. They worked with us to accommodate our event and price range.
We hired 2 hula dancers from this company for a corporate event we recently had. Katy and Leilani were the two young ladies who had showed up and their performance was the best. They were so helpful with handing out the lei's that we provided and they were just really fun, yet very professional.
We were absolutly amazed at the professionalim and performance by the dancers . They totally made my moms 60th surprise party an absolute success. We loved how they got everyone involved the costume changes and routines were awesome .we would highly recomend them and will definitely use them in the future . Thank you again for an amazing time.
I requested 2 Hawaiian dancers from your dance company for our corporate team building dinner event. On the day of the event, the dancers arrived extra early, which was perfect, since I was able to speak privately with the lead dancer, Nicole, before the rest of our team arrived. I let her know the time to come into the private room where our dinner was being held, and the specific people to “target” for audience participation.
We loved the beautiful, graceful movements and top notch performances from both of the dancers. We enjoyed hearing the history and meaning of each dance before the start of each performance, and the music from their sound system was equally beautiful. Nicole also accurately picked out the folks that I'd asked to be pulled for audience participation and we got great footage of the hilarity and fun that ensued from it. Lastly, we also enjoyed the photo ops with the dancers at the end of their performance.
I received multiple thanks and compliments from staff on the entertainment, and I would highly recommend your dancers for any event, large or small.
Thank you for providing an enjoyable and memorable experience for our executive team. You are on my A-list for both company and personal events in the future!
I just wanted to let you know how awesome the entertainers were that you provided for our Polynesian Night. All of our guests were amazed at how wonderful they were. The show was better than anything I have seen in Hawaii. I hope they were all happy with their experience here at Ironstone. We will definitely be doing this event again and hope they will be able to perform again!!
