Hawaii's Turtle Bay Resort has just launched its reinvented surfside spa, fitness and wellness centre, the Nalu Kinetic Spa. Perched on the edge of the ocean, the new look spa has doubled in size to 11,000sq ft (1,022sq m) and offers the perfect place to unwind after surfing, kayaking or horse rides along the beach.
“To us a spa is more than steam baths, scented towels and pretty pedicures. It's where fun, fitness and the vibrancy of total health stream together, as inseparable as the waves that flow into each other,” says director of wellness at the resort, Sierra Shore.
Dramatic wall windows make the most of the views. Organic, eco-friendly and marine-infused products, Naturopathica and Osea, are in use.
The signature treatment is the Nalu wave therapy, which takes place on a wave motion table (only the third in the US) which mimics the buoyancy and natural healing rhythm of the ocean. Deep release is achieved through gentle rocking, gliding and kinetic movements.
A movement studio has also been created, which enjoys the coastal views through floor to ceiling windows. Zumba, hot hula and yoga are offered, as well as cardio, strength and functional training equipment.
“Nalu Kinetic Spa seamlessly integrates diverse wellness experiences in a setting of unrefined natural beauty, appealing to adventurers who seek immersion within the spirit, peace and power of the north shore. This enhanced journey leaves them invigorated and eager to return,” says wellness consultant, Amy McDonald from Under a Tree, who acted as spa consultant for the project.
