At the new Kai Holo Spa<\/a> at Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea<\/a>, local ingredients and cutting-edge technology align in an array of offerings, from traditional lomi lomi massage and black-sea-salt soaks to state-of-the-art cryotherapy toning and infrared light therapy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In transforming the property\u2019s spa (its name, Kai Holo<\/em>, means \u201cflowing tide\u201d), the acclaimed architecture and design firm Meyer Davis has created moments of pause. The tranquil new spaces reflect Maui\u2019s dramatic landscape with cascading water features and a black granite wall reminiscent of volcanic rock. \u201cEvery experience is designed to unfold like the tide\u2014effortless, restorative\u2014connecting body, mind, and spirit to the essence of Hawaii,\u201d says Pat Makozak, senior spa director.<\/p>\r\n

At the heart of the spa is the aquathermal circuit, where guests can move between a cold plunge, a vitality pool, and a sensory experience shower before or after treatments. These wellness offerings range from modern longevity-\u200bboosting biohacks (like a hyperbaric oxygen chamber) to the signature botanical-based Queen\u2019s Garden Ritual, which begins with a massage incorporating native fern oils and concludes with a volcanic lava mask that is wrapped in ti leaves.<\/p>\r\n

\u201cWellness has always been part of our fabric,\u201d says Makozak. \u201cKai Holo Spa marks a new chapter, offering guests a thoughtful balance between restoration and innovation.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
