The Hawaiian concept of olakino denotes “a state of well being and health”. You’ll find faux lava walls, tropical prints, Balinese teaks and water fountains in this small oasis.
At Spa Olakino, they take pride in the fact that they use natural, fresh Hawaiian ingredients, which are incorporated into the treatments.
You may want to do the Olakino Experience, an all day affair, starting with a foot wash using warm mineral water, Hawaiian salt and peppermint oil.
Next, you’ll enjoy their signature Magic Island Massage using an infusion of grape seed oil and Awapuhi-kauiwi (wild ginger). A pineapple and papaya enzyme body scrub follows the massage. Then they finish it off with their Aloe and Hawaiian spirulina wrap, leaving a relaxing aromatherapy facial to end your experience. A healthy lunch is also included in this service.
You may want to take this lunch in the relaxation room, which faces Waikiki Beach. Beforehand, you might even take advantage of their adjacent fitness center. There is also a hair salon right on the premises.
