Spa at Mauna Kea
Designed as a seamless extension of its natural surroundings, the spa unfolds as an immersive indoor-outdoor sanctuary of calm.
Spa at Mauna Kea, is an all-new 22,000-square-foot destination spa opening as part of the resort’s nearly $240 million renovation. Envisioned to be organically connected to the land and rooted in Hawaiian healing traditions, Spa at Mauna Kea introduces a deeply immersive wellness experience grounded in legacy, guided by nature and renewed from within. Opened in 2026, it is grounded in the concept of Ho‘ōla i Loko, the Hawaiian belief that healing begins within and radiates outward, Spa at Mauna Kea is designed to nurture balance between body, mind and spirit. Guests are guided through a restorative sequence beginning with a traditional Hawaiian oli (chant), where natural elements are used to cleanse and rebalance energy including paʻakai (sea salt), lāʻau lapaʻau (plant-based healing), and tī leaf infusion, setting the tone for an experience that extends beyond individual treatments to cultivate a profound sense of place and lasting restoration.
Featuring 11 al-fresco treatment rooms, including couples’ suites, each is thoughtfully appointed with a private lanai, outdoor shower, and soaking tub that opens to the lush garden landscape embracing natural light and open air. The experience extends beyond the treatment rooms into a series of thoughtfully designed wellness amenities, set within a tranquil garden setting and offering spaces for post-treatment relaxation, including separate men’s and women’s purification gardens with steam and sauna, plunge and soaking pools, and a serene co-ed wellness deck with a vitality pool and hot tub for quiet reflection. Additional amenities include a Mind and Body movement pavilion.
Guided by this Hawaiian philosophy, the spa’s signature massage offerings are a collection of lomilomi-inspired therapies that draw on locally sourced botanicals and elements from the islands, including smooth lava stones hand gathered from the coastline of Hawai‘i Island, native florals known for their healing properties, and mineral-rich salts. Complementing these rituals is curated a collection of enhancements and advanced treatments, from results-driven skincare and LED light therapy to targeted experiences that support muscle recovery and overall wellbeing, creating a fully integrated whole-body wellness journey.
