It was a pleasure doing business with Vili. His mellow and beautiful island sounds were exactly the backdrop we were looking for at our party - in fact, a number of guests asked for his contact information for their upcoming outdoor events! I'd highly recommend Vili and his team to anybody seeking a taste of the tropics at their upcoming event...

Hi Vili:

Yes—we had a blast and really enjoyed the show. I will send you the photos—they turned out so great!!! You will want to use them on your website for sure. If you give me your mailing address, I will make a CD of the photos for you.

Please let us know when you’ll be doing a show that we can see—we always love to be taken back to the islands, even if it is just musically.

Please let Melina and Dane know that we have some great photos of them too. Maybe you can share the CD with them as well.

Take care and looking forward to talking with you in the future.

40 th / Birthday party, luau style

Vili and his performers were great! Very authentic Polynesian/Hawaiian music and dancing -- and they were very nice and accomodating. (Just make sure all performers have directions to your party so no one gets lost.) Great band for your luau or Hawaiian-themed party! Thanks Vili! -Wendy S, Vista, CA (gig ID# 137903)

I thought the band was very good, had soft hawaiian music. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves with good music in the background. When asked to play a special request, they quickly obliged,overall a very good band. -Paula E, Chula Vista, CA (gig ID# 165402)

Luau, Birthday Party

We would definitely book them again. They were very talented and extremely talented. The dancers changed costumes often and used poi balls in their demonstration. They were great at teaching and getting the guests up and dancing. Great live music as well! It was like being at a real luau in Hawaii! -Anne R, San Diego, CA (gig ID# 429456)

Wedding ceremony

They were absolutely professional and prompt in every way! Vili Makihele even visited the sight (public park) of the wedding 2 weeks in advance to become familiar with the venue. The wedding was slow to get started, which was pressing, time-wise, for them as they had another engagement immediately following ours. They stayed the course and even managed to work alternatively and in compliment to a harpist. Great, great great!!! -Cindy B, Dana Point, CA (gig ID# 197251)

Wedding ceremony

Vili (Polynesian Revue) was extremely professional and readily available by either phone or email for all of our questions. They played before, during, and after our wedding ceremony and sounded beautiful. They even helped to set up a CD player and practice with my 10 year old cousin for a song she performed during the ceremony. I would definately recommend them to anyone for a wedding or party. Many thanks to a fantastic job, you helped to create a magical day for myself and many others. Mahalo! Aloha, Megan Hazzard -Megan M, San Diego, CA (gig ID# 153979)

Wedding, Hawaiian and Island music and show.

Lovely, lovely band. Sweet island songs made a perfect background for our luau wedding reception. The players and dancers are warm, friendly, and talented. I'd like to mention that MANY of my guests were impressed with the skill level of the dancer. It was also fun for the children to learn the dances. Overall, a well thought out and executed show. If you're having a luau; or a kick back affair this band is an excellent choice. -Peggy S, Indio, CA (gig ID# 310090)

Barona recreation center, Casino

They were great entertainers and very accomodating. Our location is out in east county and they were happy to come out to perform. Villi was very easy going and accomodating; a true islander in every sense. The dance review was amazing. There were several outfit changes and male and female dancers who were both enthusiastic and authentic. I would definitely recommend them for any luau-type event or party and they can even work with your budget! -Brian V, Lakeside, CA (gig ID# 434780)
