Treatments feature organic, plant-based Malie products created in Hawaii, with massage, body polish, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, and hot stone options designed to ease tension and refresh the senses. Guests may also arrange personalized spa experiences in the privacy of their lodging, while weekly complimentary yoga adds another way to stretch, breathe, and reset.
