Hawaii's Award-Winning SpaHalekulani Launches New Concept

The new lifestyle philosophy is incorporated into a series of renewals throughout SpaHalekulani, from a newly designed menu of signature treatments, to new organic product lines, enhanced Spa Cuisine culinary offerings and a series of MindBody fitness classes. The Living as an Art concept and revitalized SpaHalekulani offerings attribute to Halekulani's unwavering philosophy and steadfast commitment to Hawaii's indigenous cultural qualities, personalized service and the legacy of the Waikiki beachfront hotel.

“Ten years of distinction has done nothing to diminish the verve that the staff at SpaHalekulani have for excellence,” said Ms. Sepielli. “While Halekulani leadership commands a forward-looking global vision, legacy is still cherished. Both can be seen in the renewed SpaHalekulani. I'm thrilled that a kindred spirit, Kamala Nayeli, is on board as Spa Director and am looking forward to guests experiencing Living as an Art, well-being at Halekulani.”

With a focus on treatments and services designed to induce a spiritual, cultural and emotional experience, SpaHalekulani introduces a series of signature treatments underneath the Well-Being, Living as an Art umbrella, that provide an opportunity to experience indigenous rituals from Japan and the South Pacific. SpaHalekulani will be the first in the state of Hawaii to offer Taurumi – an authentic Tahitian massage, where therapists trained with Tahitian Taurumi masters to become experts on the technicality of the massage. Additional signature treatments include Zen Shiatsu – a Japanese massage that combines acupressure and gentle stretches to balance the body's energy system, as well as the Ho`olele - a deep barefoot massage using intense, yet soothing strokes.

“Living as an Art incorporates Halekulani's natural beauty, its tradition of gracious hospitality, personalized service and the ‘Aloha Spirit' to achieve optimal well-being,” said Kamala Nayeli, Director of SpaHalekulani. “While working harmoniously with nature through eco-friendly spa services and organic and locally sourced products, our new SpaHalekulani treatments and MindBody classes support this lifestyle through healthy practices and experiences that are spiritual, emotional and cultural to renew the mind, body and soul.”
In conjunction with the new menu of signature spa treatments, SpaHalekulani debuts two new natural and organic product lines - Ola Hawaiian Body Products and Scientific Organics by EmerginC, as well as expanded fitness offerings through a variety of MindBody classes covering Posture & Balance, Tai Chi, Pilates and personalized training sessions. Halekulani's enhanced culinary offerings focus on spa cuisine, providing guests with a variety of choice that further enables them to explore and experience the entirety of Well-Being, Living as an Art.

As part of the acclaimed lifestyle series Halekulani Living, inspired by four core pillars - Connoisseur, Masterworks, Wellness and Legacy, Halekulani guests are invited to discover the true meaning of renewed well-being with The Art of Living Well. Held July 26-28, 2013, the three-day event will feature a series of lectures with Dr. Meg Jordan, PhD, RN, CWP, who has been recognized for motivating millions to live healthier, more fulfilling lives through her health and wellness reporting. Guests will also have an opportunity to participate in specially designed programs and seminars to truly immerse themselves in Living as an Art.
