Hawaii Spas: Spa On High; "It's All About Me!"
Where: Oahu || Grouped in: Oahu Hotels || Tagged:
The Waikiki Plantation Spa takes the pleasure principle to new heights in Hawaii -- quite literally. Located on the penthouse level of the Outrigger on the Beach Hotel - an unremarkable beachfront property recently buffed, polished and expertly repositioned upscale - the new spa floats serenely above the surfers, the blue waters and the crowded sidewalks of Waikiki.
The Waikiki Plantation Spa takes the pleasure principle to new heights in Hawaii -- quite literally. Located on the penthouse level of the Outrigger on the Beach Hotel - an unremarkable beachfront property recently buffed, polished and expertly repositioned upscale - the new spa floats serenely above the surfers, the blue waters and the crowded sidewalks of Waikiki. The spa sports the requisit lomilomi and lava rock massages. At $110 for 50 minutes, these locally-infused rubdowns are almost a bargain! True, the Waikiki Plantation Spa is not as big as...
...the totally boffo spa at the Hyatt Regency down the block or as posh as the small but tasteful spa at the Halekulani but you can't beat the PH address. True, the concept of a plantation spa is a little bizarre to locals -- lots of people in Hawaii still work on sugar and pineapple plantations and its no life of luxury. But we'll go with it and the new spa looks gorgeously airy. Gotta love that they name a treatment "It's All About Me!" -- the most honest name for a spa treatment yet..
