Located next to Rock Za the strip club. First we called to asked for available appointments and she insisted we come in at 2pm when we asked the latest. Finally she said 6pm but we had to come in at 530pm. We said fine. At exactly 530pm she called us as we got a little lost and we're behind. She showed us the saunas, dry and wet with hot and cold pools. Our massages/scrubs were at 6pm and she said shell call us. We just got situated when our masseuse came in around 550pm. They demanded we go to our massages now which felt rushed but whatever ? The lady told me to just go and I could go to the spa later. Its a room with 4 tables and everyone is naked and exposed just FYI. No privacy. My lady starts scrubbing me throughly but then starts talks to the other lady in korean. She laughs as she says "kokori" in korean as she rubs my belly. Her and the other lady starts laughing. They gossip a bit more until I start death staring at them nakedness on the table. They begin to shush each other by saying "shhhhh". Ummm not very peaceful experience. I did the one hr combo, scrub, soap massage, scalp, facial.. and my lady was definitely not a professional masseuse lol. She was basically running her hands up and down me like a slip and slide. Her facial was her flicking my face aggressively without targeting specific muscle groups or areas. I told her to be gentle on my scalp since I was nervous at this point. When it came to check out the lady at the front/owner? Got really aggressive with me for not leaving a tip. It was pretty awkward. Not someplace I would recommend as relaxing. Although my friends person was really good, her name was Jay if you decide to go :) When we checked read more

Aloha Sauna and Spa - Korean gossip?? Lol - Day Spas Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

See all

Terrible service, the place is old and not very safe. Slippery all over, the girls who provide scrubs are aggressive and unfriendly, they actually harassed us today. When the service is bad, tipping is optional. The front desk gal and the girls who provide scrubs harassed us for tips. They overcharge for the services, the facility is old and not worth what they charge. Since when is tipping mandatory? Shame on them for this unprofessional behavior. read more

OMG I feel amazing ! Got the scrub, cucumber mask, and massage - used the hot and cold pools and the hit rooms but the highlights were the scrub and massage !!! Lady kept on scrubbing every inch of my body for like an hour and now I feel so squeaky clean! The scrub itself is like a massage ! Then she washed my hair and did the cucumber face mask - heavenly - then in another room I had the best massage of my life with Jenny- she is intuitive about what you need and I felt so relaxed - she made an extra effort to get all these knots out- she def has a healing touch that alleviates any pain or soreness in your body!! Bring cash for Kamaaina discount- be sure to be generous with tips - these ladies deserve it and this place is so reasonable compared to other places - this will be my go to for massages and scrubs! The K scrub is great for the lymphatic system!! read more

The place is clean. The jacuzzi wasn't running when I visited--I had to ask, and they turned it on only for a short time. The owner is usually there, but doesn't interact much with customers. I'm not Korean, but I've tried to make conversation with her a few times. She speaks English, but usually just smiles and keeps it brief. Not that friendly but if you want a sauna a steam cold plunge in and out then go read more

My wife loves this place! she raves about the services and always has to stop and get a body scrub when on Oahu. They have a Wet, Dry and Salt room sauna's as well as a huge hot tub and cold plunge. make sure to arrive 30-40 mins early to enjoy the saunas before your scrub/massage. read more

As a first time customer, and first time ever for a full Korea body scrub experience, this place was amazing. All of their staff were extremely friendly, their facility was clean and organized- and the services I received were absolutely delightful. Before I walked out I already felt like a brand new woman. They allowed multiple bookings at one time so I was able to go with two of my friends which made it an even more amazing experience. I'll definitely be making this a regular visit. read more

Aloha Sauna and Spa - Before we had our amazing experiences! - Day Spas Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Horrible experience regarding my 6:00 PM appointment this evening. While I was relaxing in the hot tub, a staff member informed me that my appointment would be delayed by at least 20 minutes. She had the opportunity to inform me when I walked into the spa and before I undressed. I told her that I had a dinner reservation at 7:30 and that she confirmed on the phone appointment was at 6pm. She then asked me to step out of the hot tub naked and step into the hallway to discuss my options. She was unapologetic and offered two shitty options: start 20 minutes late or switch to an express service that is half the duration and only $20 less in price. I found the staff member to be rude and unaccommodating. Given the inconvenience, I expected a much higher level of customer service and professionalism. read more

This is Aloha Sauna Spa. The counter staff are beautiful, kind, and always friendly, which makes me happy every time I visit. The massage is amazing--when I feel pain, just two hours of massage makes me feel much better. The inside is clean, pretty, and full of charming little decorations, making it perfect for healing and relaxation. I always enjoy my time at Aloha Sauna Spa, and I recommend it to my friends with confidence. When you need healing, Aloha Sauna Spa is the best place to go! read more

Aloha Sauna and Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

A true gem. This spa is outstanding. If you are looking for a fancy, high-end spa where it is more about ambiance than treatments, this may not be for you. The facilities are very clean, well maintained, and well appointed, but the experience leans more utilitarian than "spa resort." That said, if you are looking for a truly therapeutic healing experience where the focus is on your body's needs, this is absolutely the place to be. If you have never experienced a Korean spa, I recommend doing a little research before you commit. The etiquette and process are very different from a typical Western spa. The staff will walk you through everything and explain what to do, and they are wonderful. Yes, you are nude with other women in the women's spa area. It is respectful, everyone is focused on their own experience, and once you are there it really is not a big deal. I am curvy and still felt comfortable. I went with a close childhood friend and we definitely giggled through the first awkward moments, but it passes quickly. The women staff and therapists are excellent. I highly recommend the treatments. The value is unparalleled. Go into it with patience and an open mind, and expect a few minor stumbles with language and communication. With kindness and a little grace, it is easy and well worth it. I loved the experience so much that I came back to the island specifically to visit again. I plan to make this a stop on every Hawaii trip, even if I am not staying on Oahu. read more

I love Korean spas and so searched for them once we got here! This place is so good! Wow, my husband and I came here, I picked #5 the works I originally was going to just do a short body scrub I'm so glad I changed it because I needed 2 hours of pampering and he did 90 min deep tissue which he very much needed as well. We were both so impressed the practitioners here are truly talented so kind and very strong! I had Sue for my Body scrub and Choi for massage. The thing I love about Korean Spa as well is how nurtured you feel and you leave with baby soft skin after a body scrub. They were all so kind and welcoming just the most lovely place. We both left just floating and so much muscle tension dissolved! Highly recommend this place!! Will be back next time! read more

Aloha Sauna and Spa exceeded every expectation I had. The place is super clean, saunas were nice and hot, staff were so nice, the scrub and cucumber mask were on point and the price is super competitive. I will definitely be returning. read more

I had the absolute best massage ever by Massage Therapist Rae, I truly needed to relax and that is what I did. I felt so refreshed when the massage was over. I did 60 minutes, but I will start doing 90 minute massages. I have received many massages, but Rae really knows what she is doing & I now will come back weekly. She is nice and professional. She is also an esthetician, so I will be getting facials from her also. A massage & the sauna was the Best! It made my day! No! It made my week wonderful. See you next week, Rae! read more

My boyfriend found this spot and decided to treat me to a full spa day. I chose package number three, which was $140 and included access to the full spa (three types of saunas, a cold pool, and a heated pool), a body scrub, full-body massage, cucumber mask, and hair wash. My boyfriend got a full-body massage and cupping. To start with my experience: the spa area was just okay -- nothing special, but generally as advertised. However, the photos on their website are definitely not their own. The setup is one large room where you receive your massage, body scrub, hair wash, and facial all in the same space. If you're not comfortable being nude in front of other women, this is definitely not the place for you. The Korean lady who worked on me provided the full service I paid for and gave a thorough treatment, which I appreciated. That said, there is absolutely no privacy. After about 30 minutes in the spa, they call you into another open room -- no doors, just 4-5 tables side by side -- and immediately have you lie down nude for the body scrub. Everyone can see everyone. While the scrub was effective and removed a lot of dead skin, the overall atmosphere felt more like a fish processing warehouse than a spa. You're basically "flopped" onto the table and scrubbed vigorously. It was far from relaxing -- no calming music or pleasant scents. Instead, the room smelled strongly of Irish Spring soap and apple cider vinegar, which was very off-putting. They also use basic Costco shampoo and conditioner, nothing spa-quality, and I was concerned about sanitation. There was no indication that the scrub mitts or other materials were replaced or cleaned between clients, which is worrying since everyone is nude and sharing the same space. To be fair, there were a few positives: The scrub was thorough and left my skin smooth. The massage and hair wash were decent. The cucumber mask was fresh, cool, and smelled nice. However, overall it just didn't feel clean, calm, or refreshing -- the things you'd expect from a true spa experience. I grew up going to onsens in Japan, so being nude around other women doesn't bother me, but this felt more chaotic than relaxing, with zero sense of privacy or comfort. As for my boyfriend, his experience was even worse. The masseuse had long nails that scratched him throughout the massage and mostly just hit him randomly instead of applying real massage pressure or technique. The cupping was also rushed -- the cups were only left on for about 30 seconds. To make things worse, after he finished, paid, and even tipped despite the poor service, the owner/receptionist questioned him, asking, "You didn't like massage?" and then said, "Can tip 5 more dollar?" -- which was incredibly unprofessional. In total, we paid around $300 (including tip) for what ended up being a bad massage experience and a chaotic, uncomfortable spa environment -- especially for women. If you're looking for a clean, relaxing, and private spa day, this is not the place. It's chaotic, seemingly unsanitary, and lacks professionalism. We definitely won't be returning or recommending it to anyone. I only give it a 2 star because the Korean lady did do everything as advertised and put in the work for my full treatment time. read more

hello it's my first time at AlohaSauna Spa,& l highly recommend it. My skin feel so soft and clear After spending time in the hot sauna, my pain went away and my body feels light.This is truly my healing place!!! Beautiful,clean and peaceful I will definitely come back!^^LOL read more

Wow, quite experience. I never had this before now when I get back to San Diego I'll be looking for a Korean wet body scrub. I can't believe that body scrub was 55 minutes. My skin is so soft. I'm coming back next year when I come to Hawaii. This is something that you'll be surprised about. Someone scrubbing you for 55 minutes buckets of water thrown on you. It was interesting .,my skin feels like a baby and I'm 70 years old. read more

Always exceptional massages. My fave is the Meridian and the Deep Tissue. The body scrub is like shedding a layer of dead skin, and the pools along with the sauna's and steam are all rejuvenating and wonderful. I highly recommend all their services. read more

The service was amazing, the masseuses were great in their service. I would put 5 stars, however the receptionist, which I assumed is the owner, doesn't know was TIP means. There was a tip jar with a bunch of dollar bills, so I just put money in there. She grabbed it from the tip jar and with a disgusted look and tone, she goes "didn't they do a good job?" She told us how much we should be tipping each.. which we gave after. Last time I checked, tip was OPTIONAL, not required and to be telling customers how much they should be tipping is absurd. Actually, we were planning on giving more after but that was just a turn off. We'll check out other Korean spas. PLEASE PUT ON WEBSITE OR POST IT SOMEWHERE THAT TIP IS REQUIRED read more

Aloha Sauna Spa is the place I always visit on my day off. When I feel tired or not well, I heal in the hot rooms and get a massage. It makes me so relaxed and refreshed. It's beautiful and feels like my own secret place. read more

Aloha Sauna & Spa is absolutely wonderful! I went to the hospital, and they recommended that I try the hot and cold baths. I've been doing it here, and my body feels so much better.

The owner of Aloha Sauna & Spa was super kind. So are the women that work here. They did a pretty good job, and the massage felt amazing. They also have a cute little dog that sleeps by the fan by the front desk named Sam. read more

So it's everything you see on the Korean soap operas. Lol. They have two or three different kinds of saunas, a cold plunge type of pool and a warm pool, lots of showers and a locker room. The scrub was awesome. The massage and hair wash wasn't that great but honestly, I wound go there again. read more

Korean spa in Honolulu, Hawaii... My half-Korean friend had never been to a Korean bath house, so, I asked her if she wanted to go with me. I had been to two others - one in Kalihi and one in Kaka'ako. I was able to describe what to expect. She said, "Let's go"! Aloha Sauna and Spa is located across from the Convention Center on the corner of Kapiolani Boulevard and Kalauokalani Way. There are several free parking stalls right in front. I had called a few weeks ago to reserve two spots for opening time at 10am. I think it's good to go early when the water is cleaner and the workers are fresh! We removed our footwear, chose the package that we wanted, and received two towels and a locker key. We were shown to the locker room where we removed all clothing and left our belongings in our assigned locker. After a shower in the next area, we soaked in the hot water pool for about half an hour and dipped into the cold water a few times to cool down. We were called by our locker number to a table where we were scrubbed down. It felt like brillo kitchen mitts going back and forth over the skin until the top layer came off - we could see the dead, gray skin on the vinyl covered tables. Warm water was poured over us, then we were massaged with oil (and it felt like a rolling tool); our faces were covered with a fresh cucumber mask; and our heads were massaged with Suave shampoo. My friend got the Deep Tissue Message. She went to a private room where her therapist walked on her back. My friend said that she could have handled more weight. In my case, I'm a wimp and I feel kinda bruised... Haha! It was a cleansing experience. I felt like a rag doll with no bones for a while. I did sit in the salt sauna for a few minutes before I got dressed. We paid at the front (we got a kamaaina discount) and left a tip for the hard work! I wouldn't mind returning! Maybe I'll sit in the Clay Sauna next time? read more

Every time I went, it was incredible. The scrub leaves you feeling clean like new skin. The massage can be painful but in a good way I think. I like to go with friends and relax in the hot tubs and sauna rooms before and after the appointments read more

Been coming here with my mom for many years now. We always get the body scrub deluxe package. You arrive to the spa 30 minutes before your appointment to bathe and soak/enjoy the saunas. They provide lockers and towels. You get assigned your own Korean Auntie who is in charge of your treatment. The course begins with a body scrub that visibly takes all the dirt and dead skin off your body. You get a cucumber facial and they wash your hair. Then you get a massage in a private room. I like a lot of pressure when I get a massage, so I communicated that & was very pleased with a great (slightly painful) massage. The Korean aunties don't speak a lot of English but they work really hard. Mom & I love Korean bath houses and have visited one in LA as well as Tokyo. Aloha Sauna and Spa is a little bit pricier compared to other bath houses, but it's understandable because we are in Hawaii. read more

This place is the best! It's perfect to take time to yourself to unwind and rejuvenate yourself. There's two different saunas, a steam room, a giant jacuzzi and a cold plunge :) everything is nude but I promise it's totally fine. Everything is neat, cute, clean and comfortable, the staff is great and friendly, the amenities are large! Food, drinks, makeup room w blow driers and lotion. I have done the Korean scrub and face masks, highly recommend. Pressure is perfect, work is professional. Left feeling unexplainably bad azz read more

My sister and I went for a birthday treat, my first time at a spa like this! The staff was kind, polite and the treatment was amazing! We did the package #5, and I left feeling rejuvinated and refreshed! My skin is so very soft from the scrub, my face glowing and my muscles relaxed from the massage. The entire spa is very clean! You go 1/2 hour before to sauna and warm up your muscles, then shower, and you can cold plunge or sit in a hot tub. Then they come to get you for the scrub, and your skin will be so very soft after! Facial, cucumber mask, and hair wash follow the scrub. Shower and dry off and head to massage room for an awesome full body massage, and then after that you shower again. You can go into the saunas after massage, but don't go in hot or cold pools after massage. Owner Kim was very nice, we will be back soon! I wonder how often is too often to scrub? This could become a habit! Definitely recommend! read more

First time ever doing something like this and what an experience! Yoojin was amazing! Can't wait to tell my friends and family about it! And can't wait to go again!!! read more

Got there on time, easy to check in and get your car registered for free parking. Love how everything is right in one spot. Hot tub, cold tub, showers, saunas and steam room. My person did a job exfloliating me and the facial was amazing!! Definitely will be back and with more people read more

FREE PARKING in front of building!! Go later after 5, nice & quite! This female-only nude spa is an amazing experience! The atmosphere is peaceful, relaxing, and incredibly clean. The variety of saunas and pools were rejuvenating, and the body scrub left my skin feeling incredibly soft. Staff were professional and respectful, which made the experience even more comfortable. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some self-care in a tranquil setting. A must! read more

Wonderful experience the other day. Quaint, unassuming spa close to Ala Moana center and Convention Center. A few convenient parking stalls out front. Greeted at the front desk where they ask you to remove your shoes prior to entering. She showed me the locker room and the rest of the facilities. Definitely not shiny and new. Could use some freshening up in aesthetics but we don't have many options when it comes to Korean scrub spas in the area, unfortunately. There is an ample sized hot tub, cold plunge, jade steam room, salt steam room and traditional sauna, private massage rooms and the best reason to come, the scrub room. Several tables in a row for them to exfoliate away! I came early to take advantage of all the amenities and sufficiently soften my skin for my scrub. Hot tub, cold plunge, all the steam/sauna rooms and repeat. Then the scrub and shampoo.... I know the site of your dead skin seems pretty off putting but it's like a horror movie or train wreck... you can't NOT look Extremely excessive and definitely not an everyday event but I needed this. So I also had a full body massage and Korean facial. Literally spent half the day here but let me tell you, I walked out a different person. It was an incredible experience and I look forward to my next visit. I was so amazed, I had to ask everyone I knew that frequents Korean spas how much is too much. Is once a week sufficient? Is every other day too much? Haha. I'd do it daily if I wasn't afraid of peeling all my skin off It's so relaxing and you walk out with skin as soft as the day you were born... what's not to love?!?! read more

I hardly ever write reviews, but I was so impressed with this experience. This was one highlight from my trip, and I was able to take my smooth skin home with me from vacation. I highly recommend their services. The spa is very clean and well kept. They have a clay sauna, salt sauna, steam sauna, hot whirlpool, cold plunge pool and showers. The body scrub is like nothing I've ever experienced. The massage was fabulous. The scalp scrub and shampoo with cucumber facial was fabulous. I followed mine with a full facial which was perfect! I was so pleased with my choice to come here over the fancy hotel spas not far away! Loved this place! read more

First time trying this place out and I must say, WHAT AMAZING EXPERIENCE! I purchased the Deluxe Package for $190.00 which included: (3) Sauna Access (Hot/Cold) Pool Access Full Body Scrub (Head to Toe) Shampoo/Conditioner Hair Wash Full Body Massage They recommend you checking in half an hour before your scheduled appointment to use the sauna and pool. The sauna is beneficial You can either go completely naked or have your bottoms on. You will see other women naked, so if you get uncomfortable then you might not want to try this. But if you're okay, then I highly recommend this and bring your friends along! I had my two besties with me which made it comfortable and fun! They have refreshments to purchase, also an area to get ready (which includes blow dryer and brushes). We brought our own water bottles which is allowed. Go to their website to see all the services they offer. Don't sleep on this! read more

Best place for some girl time with friends you don't mind being naked with. Weird and shocking at first, but you get used to it. Come at least 30 minutes prior to your scrub, to make sure your skin is softened up enough because you will be losing your entire epidermis soon. You are given 2 towels and locker key - make sure you shower yourself well or you will get scoldings! They will tell you to do it again if they don't think you are clean enough. Not a fancy place but it gets the job done! After the shower you soak in a hot water pool to prepare for the scrub. There is a cold plunge as well to cool off. You can also choose to visit the steam room and sauna. The scrub is just short of violent, but in a good way. Don't talk, you don't want to get dead skin flying into your mouth (happened to a friend). It is insane how much skin they remove from you. Very relaxing experience, and you leave with the most baby soft skin. Even if you don't get the massage, all the heat will make your body feel wonderful. You could come just for the day spa to boil and steam your body for $33. read more

This place is amazing. Haru gave me the beat face and lymph massage I've ever experienced and my whole body has never felt so clean.

In return for the review they also let me take a scrub towel home! ;) read more
