The Olavine Spa is located in the quaint city of Wailea, Maui. Perched on the 2nd floor, it is a popular destination for world travelers and locals alike.
The word Olavine is inspired by the Hawaiian word “ola” which means life and health and the English word, olivine which is an enchanting lava mineral said to have properties of calmness peacefulness and joy.
An olivine is known as a Hawaiian diamond or the joyful tears of Madame Pele, the fire goddess. In Hawaii, it is only found on the green sand beach of the Big Island. Beside Hawaii, they can only be found on the Galapagos, Guam and Norway.
At the Olavine Spa, gem and crystal elixirs are used, revered and enjoyed to create a sense of relaxation harmony and balance. An olivine crystal is considered the most natural gem and relieves anxiety, depression and also protects you…but beware, do not take a Hawaiian olivine from the island or you will be cursed with bad luck. If you choose to wear this crystal, they are sold here at the spa but imported from other regions, not Hawaii.
When you walk into the spa, you will notice the serene colors of aqua and green which represent the Hawaiian waters and greenery. A misty scent of Eucalyptus flows through the air as you are surrounded by olivine jewelry and holistic products including the eco-chic Mahalo skincare line that is exclusively available here at the spa.
The relaxation room has a gorgeous palm tree view and on clear days, you will see the island of Lanai in the distance. Upon arrival, you will be invited to sit on plus white couches with green accent pillows. Green sand from the big island and a bowl of olivines are presented to you as you hear the story of the concept of the salon. We were so excited to get our treatments.
