If you are looking for a fun and unique family night out in San Diego, you have to check out the brand new Rhythms of the Pacific Luau at the Hyatt Mission Bay!
I’m so excited to work with Hyatt Mission Bay as a Hyatt Ambassador to share about this amazing new experience, it brings the spirit of the Pacific Islands right to San Diego.

The luau offers a full evening of island-inspired fun that's perfect for families, couples, or anyone wanting to soak up some Polynesian culture and enjoy a delicious Hawaiian feast. It’s a must-try addition to San Diego’s event scene.

What to Expect at the Rhythms of the Pacific Luau
From the moment you arrive, the energy and aloha spirit are vibrant. Each guest is welcomed with a traditional lei or shell greeting, setting the tone for a festive and friendly evening. You’ll also receive a welcome cocktail or mocktail upon arrival, giving you the perfect chance to relax and take in the beautiful views of Mission Bay.
The event features a full Hawaiian buffet with a wide selection of island-inspired dishes. Expect fresh seafood, tropical fruits, flavorful meats, and classic sides that celebrate the vibrant flavors of Hawaii. The food was definitely one of the highlights — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

Throughout the evening, guests are treated to live Polynesian entertainment. The performers share traditional dances and music from across the Pacific Islands, creating an exciting and immersive experience. From the fun hula dances to the thrilling fire performances, the entertainment keeps you engaged and offers a deeper appreciation for the cultural traditions of the islands.
There are also great photo opportunities throughout the event, making it easy to capture special memories with family and friends. The backdrop of Mission Bay, paired with the colorful costumes and decor, makes for awesome photos.

A Fun, Family-Friendly Experience in San Diego
What I loved most about the Rhythms of the Pacific Luau is that it truly is family-friendly. Kids and adults alike can enjoy the show, the food, and the overall energy of the night. It’s a perfect way to introduce kids to different cultures in a fun and interactive way, and it’s equally enjoyable for adults looking for something a little different than the usual night out.
The setting at Hyatt Mission Bay also adds to the magic. With its waterfront location and relaxed, resort-style atmosphere, it feels like a mini getaway without even leaving San Diego.
