Review: Ho'ala Spa Alamoana shopping center

In the heart of one of Hawaii's most prominent shopping malls lays a hidden world of relaxation and beautification. The Ho'ala salon and spa is nestled on the 3rd floor of the Alamoana shopping center next to Neimans Marcus.
Ho'ala offers a relaxing waiting area away from the front desk and hustle of the mall entrance. The staff at the Ho'ala are very attentive while frequently offering water or hot tea. From the waiting area, depending on the treatment chosen, then are either escorted to the salon or changing room. The women's changing room is fully equipped with lockers, a restroom, two showers, and a sauna. With soft mood lighting, Avada lotions and products as well as a plush robe and towels creates a very calming ambiance. After getting changed into a plush Avada robe you enter the spa doors and are greeted and sat in a lounge area and are treated with a foot bath including a invigorating foot massage. After a few minutes of solitude and relaxation are escorted by a technician to your treatment room. For all spa services a complimentary foot bath and sensory journey are preformed as an added comfort. The "sensory journey" is an encumbrance of aroma therapy with Aveda products. The technician will then have you choose your favorite from three scents and incorporates that with your service. Ho'ala offers 9 spa services as well as add on like lip and eye treatments. The "Elemental Nature Facial" is promised to restores a healthy balance to the skin. The technician was very educated and could answer any questions given to her. The facial treatment lasts 50 minutes including the complimentary "sensory journey." The esthetician preforming the service did not hold a constant tough with the client which makes some movements feel surprising. The technician had great hand movements, massage, and created a very calming environment. The Aveda products used were of a luxury quality, did not cause any breakouts, and felt extremely good on the skin. The spa area was clean and the technicians used sterile tools as well as sanitized her hands before beginning any contact. The facial also includes a hand and arm massage which is a treat in itself. following the 50 minute service you are then by the clients preference either escorted back to the sitting room where the foot baths are preformed or back to the changing room. The Ho'ala spa offers a sauna and showers to use at the clients own preference.
Overall the Ho'ala Salon and spa offers great amenities, services, products, and excellent customer care. For the amount of money spent the products and surfaces were well beyond expectation and desire.
