Treatments at The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Kapalua, such as lomi-lomi massage, are inspired by ancient Hawaiian traditions and use indigenous ingredients including pineapple, coconut, papaya, and kukui oil.
Bamboo groves at the spa create a feeling of journeying into another world, as does the open space near the entrance that resembles a canyon.
Facilities include saunas, steam rooms, whirlpool baths, private outdoor shower gardens, a separate yoga studio, and two outdoor hale (cabanas) for couples treatments.
On the treatment menu: massages, facials, body scrubs, manicures and pedicures, and hair styling. One popular pedicure is the chocoholic pedicure, comprising a chocolate foot bath, chocolate scrub, chocolate mask, and chocolate massage.
