Mandara Spa at Hilton Hawaiian Village

The Hilton Hawaiian Village sits on 22 acres of prime Waikiki beachfront property, surrounded by lush palm trees, botanical gardens, flowing waterfalls, and exotic wildlife, with the Pacific Ocean as its landscape. Once the setting for television shows like Hawaii 5-0, the village-designed property encompasses 1,200 guest rooms in five distinct towers, 90 boutiques and shops, and more than 20 restaurants and lounges. The hotel's aquatic playground has six swimming pools—including the largest pool in Waikiki— waterslides, Jacuzzis, and a saltwater lagoon, and its Mandara Spa features treatments that combine elements of the island with Asian and European therapies. Daily activities include hula lessons, kids' programs, surfing, snorkeling, and deep sea fishing; once a week a Hawaiian luau celebrates the music and dance of the island, with a fireworks finale on the beach. Golf and hiking are within easy reach, as are several prominent sightseeing spots.
