Fairmont Maui spa more than doubles in size after multi-million dollar makeover
The Fairmont Kea Lani, Maui in Hawaii is nearing completion of its new Willow Stream Spa, which will open in December following an US$8m (£4.8m, €5.9m) redevelopment.
In addition to the existing three outdoor spa cabanas, the renovation has more than doubled the spa in size from around 4,000sq ft (371sq m) to 9,000sq ft (836sq m) of retail space, manicure and pedicure stations, treatment rooms, experience showers, and a Palolo (Mud) Bar.
Located on Polo Beach, on the southwest shores of Maui, the new spa retreat is inspired by the ingredients, traditions and calming energy found on Maui.
The spa will offer a complete menu of massages, facials, body treatments, in addition, to signature Willow Stream Spa therapies.
Honolulu-based Group 70 International designed the spa and Swinterton Builders was the contractor. The resort on the whole has undergone around US$70m (US$42.7m, €51.6m) of renovations over the past several years.
Also on the resort is the Garden Spa Cabana, Poolside Spa Cabana and Oceanside Spa Cabana, which aside from signature treatments all offer Swedish, deep tissue and Hawaiian lomilomi massages.
