Fodor's Expert Review Kohala Spa at the Hilton Waikoloa Village

Naupaka (a flowering shrub) grows in abundance along the shores of Hawaii Island, and Kohala Spa pays it tribute with the 80-minute Signature Naupaka White Flower Ritual. This feast for the senses incorporates a foot massage with awa root and Hawaiian ginger, followed by warmed body compressions with healing herbs and a full-body massage, blending essential oils. Locker rooms are outfitted with a wealth of beauty and bath products, and the spa's retail facility offers signature Coco-Mango lotions, body washes, and shampoos. An open-air, seaside cabana provides a tropical spot for a massage overlooking the Pacific, while the fitness center has the latest machines and plentiful classes.
