The guests loved her performance and she took the time to photograph with almost everyone at the venue. It was a memorable event not only for the bride and groom but for everyone who attended!
This is the second time we have used Pure Polynesia for an event. They did not disappoint. We had one hula dancer. She engaged the audience of seniors and even was able to get two men up on the dance floor for a dance. Our group loved it. She stayed after to take pictures with the guests.
Jasmine was the dancer. She danced beautifully;. First the hula and then changed clothing for her Tahitian dances.
Galen sang and played the ukulele and drum alone and also for her dances.
Wonderful.
I hired Pure Polynesia to perform at our daughters wedding on May , 2022 . I hired them about 3-4 months before the wedding date . After paying the fee and confirming everything they sent me a text 4 hours before the wedding saying they have to cancel . Who does this just hours before the wedding. DO NOT HIRE this company at all . They are not at all reliable and very un-professional . They lied and made us scramble hours before the wedding trying to figure out what to do . Never ever have I heard of such a company that cancels at the very last minute and ruins your daughters wedding day !!! They don’t even deserve a one star they deserve a ZERO!! EH
We hired Pure Polynesia for our office Hawiian Christmas party. We were a little disorganized getting statred, but the entertainers were very patient and accomodating. They provided ukelele player and singers that were nice enough to help me MC the party and our guests really enjoyed the dancer.
Thank you so much for making my Granddaughters 1st birthday party so special. We had over 150 guests and everyone enjoyed the Polynesian dancer. She performed 4 different dances and got the crowd involved as well. She was great and I would definitely recommend using her. Perfect!!!
Our outgoing, fun and personable hula dancer was so sweet! Offering a one of a kind experience that elevated our poolside birthday party to a memorable Hawaiian experience. Great for kids and adults, the hula dancer was a very entertaining, educational and pleasant lady that provided dance lessons, excellent photo ops and one heck of a good time. 5/5 stars for our hula dancer!
Hilani (hope I spelled correctly) was delightful. Such a talented dancer, sweet and professional.
Beautiful and professional show. They were great
Got more than I payed for, 100 percent satisfied with the whole experience. Great for the whole family to experience, I will definitely do this again! Thanks Pure Polynesia fam!
Absolutely amazing, I will definitely hire them again. Really made the audience feel included.
The bride and groom loved her
The entire process was fantastic. Very easy to work with and they kept in contact before, during and after the event. Our dancer Healani was wonderful and very accommodating when we had to move the start time back about 30 minutes. The only downside was the fire torches wouldn't light right away so that dance was a bit abbreviated. Would love to see more of that one as it was definitley a crowd pleaser. We would not hesitate to use them again.
The kids had such a great time they really enjoyed themselves!! The dancer asked the kids to join her on stage and she taught them a dance. The best part of the performance is when she had fire sticks incorporated in her dance!! Thank you all so much for this great experience for the kids.
The two ladies were prompt and very entertaining. We really enjoyed their set. Very friendly.
Tanner was a fabulous addition to our celebration! She honors the true Hawaiian spirit! And we do appreciate her and everyone at Pure Polynesia! Fabulous company to use for future celebrations!
Loved our experience! The kids were so engaged and amazed. Highly highly highly recommend!
Wow, this team was fantastic to work with. Starting from the booking process all the way down to the live entertainment. Healani was the person who I communicated with for booking and she provided a great experience and just allowed such an easy process of booking with Pure Polynesian.
The Entertainment: Tanner (Dancer) & Rex (Drummer) you both did an outstanding job providing entertainment for my daughters first birthday. You both were very kind and sweet, my family and friends thank you for such a beautiful show. You truly have provided a lifetime of memories.
With these hard times today dealing with COVID-19 this company was able to provide entertainment for my family and friends. Thankfully my sister‘s yard where the party took place had enough space to allow everyone to social distance along with keeping the entertainment safe as well. I am so happy to have booked with your company because now I will forever contact you for future entertainment booking along with referring you to all my family and friends I honestly cannot thank you guys for this experience. All the hard work that I put into my daughters first birthday to make it’s special was just topped off by your amazing staff. Thank you again so much Pure Polynesian
The fire dancer was amazing he was timely fun engaging and talented!
Brother Kamaki sang and played ukulele for my father in law’s funeral. He and Pure Polynesia provided excellent service and communication. Kamaki performed elegant and comforting music for a tough time. He was early to set up and very attentive to our needs. Mahalo!
Wow!!! I can't say enough about our 2 dancers, Jazzy and Lopati. They were so professional, engaging, talented and so beautiful to watch! I was impressed with this company the moment they reached out to me. They got back to me right away and answered ally questions. You cannot go wrong with this company. Our party was a hit and the dancers were a huge part of it. Thank you again and I look forward to hiring them again in the future.
Our dancer was Tanner and she was so amazing. Her story telling through dance had everyone captivated. From a 2 yr old to am 80 yr old. She was engaging, beautiful and truly a pleasure to watch. Super sweet and funny.
Healani was very professional and made the night unforgettable.
I wanted a non-tourist hula with the Hawaiian chant. Helena was absolutely beautiful communication with her dance. Even made some of our guest shed a tear on how beautiful the dance was. I would defiantly recommend to anyone looking for a professional and well done performance.
Due to Covid we couldn’t spend my Moms birthday in Maui, so it truly felt like we were there with Pure Polynesia. They were so talented and my guests were very pleased with the surprise performance. The fire dancing at the end really wowed is all!!
My family and I thank Jazzy and her partner for treating us to not only a great time but being beautifully nice and interactive with the performance they are really cool lady’s who know how to put on a show and my 4 year old grandson couldn’t stop dancing great time and great memories we’re already planning our next party to celebrate life and normality. Great job !!!
We absolutely loved our dancer we had for our baby shower. We have so many good memories From Hawaii as a couple and with our baby being from Polynesian decent, this performance was extra special to us and our family. She was wonderful and so sweet, very engaging. Would definitely hire again
Thank you Pure Polynesia
Melissa was amazing and so engaging with the entire party! It was such a great surprise to not only my daughter the Birthday girl, but to our family! I can't wait until out next event!!🌺🌺
Thank you again
Pure Polynesia has been so patient with me since I booked them. My venue was moved several times and they were willing to change locations more than once. I thank them so much for making my wedding memorable. Always professional, quick to respond and overall just amazing. You won't be disappointed if you book them. We enjoyed being brought up with them to learn a dance.
We had a great experience with their services and they communicated well with me until the party.
She arrived on time with her bright spirit and had all of her equipment ready to go. She held a great smile and sweet attitude the whole party. We loved her dances.
She went out of her way to be patient with us to wait a tad long before starting so we could finish serving everyone our party meal. And it was also such a hot day outside she was willing to burn her feet for us to keep the vibe true with no sandals or blanket just her feet and concrete. I was impressed how she never let the heat affect her dance or smile throughout the entire performance. We were super happy with everything. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a simple true hawaiian hula dancer.
Loved watching the dancers!
First of All they they are pure Polynesian !!!
They performed beautiful. Their spirit was peaceful and gave us a warm feeling. I am not exaggerating.
It was everything I was looking for , I love Hawaii and could not be there because of pandemic so my hubby got them for me.
Thank you Halani it was truly heaven send!! Sorry if I mis spelled your name. Did not ask you.?
Amazing thank you Aloha.
Covid-19 has truly had its way with my family and when we should have been in Hawaii, well we were home and for her birthday...I brought the islands to her. Our Dancer was beautiful, graceful and professional! I truly felt like I was on the islands and she went the extra mile of including my family into a mini lesson. Thank you for making my Mother’s birthday so special! She couldn’t stop talking about it. Keep soaring and know that we pray for your success and all of you that are included. Blessings!
The performance was absolutely beautiful and entertaining my guest loved the show as well as learning to pineapple. coconut,passionfruit. 😂 Thank you sooo much.🖤 Aloha!
I would do this again, great costumes very nice and fun
Response from Pure Polynesia:
Thankyou Cindy! Your guests were so fun and awesome to be around! Congrats again to you daughter!
