Fodor's Expert Review Mandara Spa at Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa

From its perch in the Kalia Tower, this outpost of the chain that originated in Bali overlooks the mountains, ocean, and downtown Honolulu. Hawaiian ingredients and traditional techniques are included in an array of services. Relieve achy muscles with a Thai poultice massage, perhaps with a reflexology or Balinese body polish add-on. This is one of the largest spas in Honolulu, with 25 treatment rooms, spa suites for couples, individual relaxation lounges with wet and dry saunas for men and women, Jacuzzis, traditional Japanese showers, a private infinity pool, fitness facilities, a salon, and a boutique. The delicately scented, candlelit foyer can fill up quickly with robe-clad conventioneers, so be sure to make a reservation.
