Our group is in the age range of 22-33 and we have no children accompanying us on the trip. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I mean if for no other reason, they have already done the other one. Why not try something new? If you had kids along, I would have to say Hoop hands down.

Originally Posted By crazyformickey I have done both. Both were very nice but Hoop dee doo is our favorite. We love the show and the food is good. My son picked there for his birthday party last year he had so much fun before.
Originally Posted By mag2b Hello Princess! I am going to have to agree with my fellow Disney Do-Gooder Dave and say that between those two the Luau is a more adult themed show. My family and I went to see the Hoop-Dee-Doo a couple of years ago and we have NEVER considered going back ... so that gives you an idea of how much we liked it. But, if I may make a suggestion Princess ... My family and I make it a point to go to O'Hana in the Polynesian Hotel. Adult themed, all you can eat, the waiters come to your table with big skewers of meat. A VERY NICE EXPERIENCE!!! PLUS!!! If you eat late enough on a night where the MK is doing its fireworks show ... the lights in O'Hana dim and they pipe the music from MK into the dining area and you can eat and watch the fireworks!!! (Provided you can see out a window. Regardless ... HAVE FUN!!!
