Serenity in Hawaii
Luana is Hawaiian for “to relax” or more accurately “to be at leisure with one’s surroundings.” And there’s no better place for travelers to unwind and enjoy Hawaii’s gorgeous surroundings than at one of its many spas.
Always a popular vacation pick, Hawaii—with its stunning scenery and laid-back atmosphere—can satisfy everyone from honeymooners to baby boomers to families with young children. We suggest adding spa aficionados to your list of potential Hawaii travelers, and here we highlight three facilities that will send them home spoiled and stress-free.
The Na Ho’ola Spa at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki
The Na Ho’ola Spa at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Resort & Spa encompasses 19 treatment rooms, 10,000 square feet and two floors. With several relaxation lounges overlooking Waikiki Beach, the spa is the perfect spot for beach-loving clients seeking to unwind after a day in the hot Hawaiian sun.
Top treatments include the lomi lomi massage—Polynesian for “loving hands” massage—a 50-minute re-energizing treatment during which the massage therapist performs a hula dance around the massage table. Other top picks are the Kai Water Soak and the Hawaiian Noni Wrap. Spa services, overseen by Jerry Ferreira, the Na Ho’ola Spa’s director, are infused with local ingredients like papaya, pineapple and macadamia nuts. Contact Ferreira for any questions or to book appointments at 808-237-6330 or [email protected]
The Hyatt Regency Waikiki Resort & Spa recently completed a massive upgrade of all its guest rooms. When considering which rooms to book for your clients, take the many available views into account. The best accommodations are in the hotel’s Diamond Head Tower, rooms 59 through 63. The best city views are in the Eva Tower, floors 5 through 14. Of these, the top views are in room numbers ending in 05. From the 25th floor and higher, guests have a view of the coastline, beach and Waikiki’s Diamond Head.
The Spa at Four Seasons
Last summer’s $50 million worth of refurbishments brought the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea to a new level of comfort. More than 380 guest rooms were renovated and works by top Hawaii artists were placed throughout the hotel.
Renovations at The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maui included the creation of three oceanside hales—traditional wood hut-like structures with thatched roofs, built without nails or screws—where guests can have massages and other treatments. The spa also has 13 rooms with Vichy showers, a salon, a yoga and fitness program. A unique option is the Aquacranial massage therapy—a scalp massage performed in the ocean.
