  The Signature Lomi Lomi massage is prob my fave type of massage. Every stay at Aulani we do a massage treatment. You also get access to the Kula Wai area with a plunge pool and hot tub and other relaxation areas. Staff is always excellent and very low pressure. I’m not a fan of a massage where the therapist tries to sell me a lot of stuff i dont need).

  What an incredible experience. Greeted from the time we stepped foot in the door, and escorted to the beautiful reflection room, the change rooms and lounge area were beautiful and clean. The staff are so friendly and very knowledgable about the culture and techniques of the services they offer and the vibe they strive for. The atmosphere was tranquil and relaxing. I found myself lounging and drifting in and out of sleep outside under a tree in the hydrotherapy garden. I could listen to the calm of the breeze and chirps of the tropical birds all day. Our massages were fantastic. The therapists that worked on us were very kind and thorough. The lounge area has lots of snacks and beverages to choose from. The steam and saunas were clean, and very relaxing. The pools and baths in the garden are perfect temperatures for a refresh and relax following your treatment. I myself work in the spa industry, and it is tough for me to find relaxation, and I was able to achieve it at Laniwai. I would 100% come back to this spa!

  Incredibly expensive for the services provided. The massage was ok, but not amazing, and while the garden pool area is lovely, it's juts not that special. Save your money and go to someone local when you get home!

  Small, very expensive, with a surprise 20% service fee and some other additional fees. The facial was great deserving all 5 stars. Fitness belongs to Laniwai and is awesome and intense which is so rare for a resort, also deserves all 5 stars. The trainers are amazing! Coach Tyrus, Kapiolani and Patricia are excellent. Don’t miss those classes. Almost all are complementary. But back to the spa, which I generously give 1 star. The staff talks to you in whispering baby voices. I had a gift card and was doubted and warned that not all the gift cards are accepted (mine was, but the questioning was outrageous). You can only spend 1 extra hour prior to your treatment, nothing after. Then they rush you out into the craziness of hundreds of yelling children at Aulani. If you are a spa lover like me, don’t plan on hanging there all day. The facilities are ok, small, with limited stuff to do. Sauna is barely warm, there are two knee-high lukewarm pools the meaning of which I did not understand. I decided to do the eucalyptus steam room and cold plunge to make it worth the time/money. The staff is constantly following you to ask when is your treatment while you are trying to enjoy yourself. After I spent $350 for a facial and 1 hour at the spa I got one teaspoon of soaking salt, but they did make me get very excited with so much foreplay leading to receiving it. Generosity has no limits. I hope this is helpful and again, the hydra-facial treatment was amazing with lasting results. And if you are into exercising, you are covered. If you are into chilling at the spa, forget about it and save your money for a real spa. Aloha! 🌺🌈🌊

  Let me start off by saying I was quite skeptical of the service I was going to receive versus what I paid. I could not be happier. Worth every penny. From your first step into the facility to the final moment prior to you leaving the area, every instance is carefully crafted to support your experience. I had booked a hot stone massage and had the pleasure of working with Laurie. I can honestly say I have never felt more relaxed in my entire life. I’m glad I didn’t have to drive after, I felt quite disoriented!
