Paid by Venmo. Mana Massage has 2 locations so it was convenient to book 2 days ahead of time. I booked on a Monday afternoon and it worked out great for me. Leslee was very communicative and prompt in her responses. I booked a 1.5 myofascial release and combination massage and felt amazing during and after. I felt so relaxed I even fell asleep during the massage. I would definitely recommend Mana Massage. read more

Five stars. The ocean breeze and waves made this an experience we will never forget. This was a massage for us on our honeymoon. It was beyond perfect and we are so relaxed. read more

Mana Massage - A 10/10 experience. Hearing the ocean waves, feeling the ocean breeze, while relaxing with my new husband cannot be topped. - Massage Therapy Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Wonderful massage for my wife today. Would recommend booking your next massage with Mana Massage. Great service and great communication.

I booked a couples massage for myself and my husband. The pro's: - Manima was responsive and easy to reach via text, and we set up an appointment quickly. - our outside location was beautiful and very relaxing, overlooking the beach. The cons: - the massage was not that great. I felt like Manima was just softly touching me, not really massaging - my husband also commented that manima's massage partner also seemed green and new to massaging - they did not wipe off the oil on our body after they were done, which is very new and weird to me - clients are supposed to just leave super oily? In sum, for the price of $120 an hour per person the view was great and it was a nice moment. But if you're actually looking to get tension out and get your back cracked or whatever, this isn't it. read more

I booked massages for my household (mom, husband, and self) for an after wedding day surprise for our family. Manima asked questions to make sure she could provide the best service. She is kind, professional, and very talented. She responded quickly, was easy to work with, and coordinated everything perfectly. My mom loved her massage with Manima and my husband loved his massage with Aisha. Speaking for myself, Manima gave me the best massage of my life. I've been getting massages for six years (both "clinical" and spa massages). I've never been a regular of a particular massage therapist, but I will be a regular of Manima. She and her team are absolutely lovely. They came to our home, set up, and worked around our senior dog who was sniffing around a little while they did their massage on us. Absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend. read more

They got me in last minute and even were understanding when we were a bit late! The massage was relaxing and enjoyable, especially hearing the waves in the distance. My husband and I loved our couples massage! I would highly recommend them if you're looking for a way to relax on Kauai. read more

Had a Great massage, had a couples massage. Highly recommend and have it done at the beginning of your vacation to set you off right, thank you again for a great massage. read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Manima and Mana Massage! I've had multiple sessions and each time, I'm left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. She always takes care to ask what my body needs and tailors each session to focus on areas where I'm particularly sore or tight. I can literally feel my muscles relaxing and healing as she works and by the end, I feel like I'm floating on a cloud. Manima has a truly gifted touch and I highly recommend her services! read more

My partner and I scheduled a last minute massage with Manima yesterday and we couldn't be happier with our choice! Not only was scheduling and communication easy (via text), but she happily came to us as well. The massage itself was 100% the best massage either of us have ever had. To top it off, we both needed and received different treatments: I have terrible lower back pain (a psoas injury) and Manima achieved stretch and release that no one and nothing has ever accomplished! I really believe this was a life changing treatment for me -- myofascial release -- and it was an unexpected miracle of an experience. Only in Kauai! My partner needed something less pointed and more of a general relaxation massage and that is exactly what she received. She has never raved about a massage like this -- a Lomi Lomi massage -- and felt as though Manima had an incredibly healing touch. Needless to say, we highly recommend and we will most certainly be calling the next time we're on island. MAHALO MANIMA! read more

Manima worked out the kinks! She was EASY to get an appointment with last minute, very communicative via text, very flexible and fairly priced. Her studio was nothing fancy (back of a massage school), but it was clean and had a nice Zen vibe. I usually don't talk during massages, but I found her to be very interesting and ending up being the one who kept jabbering. Still, I walked away refreshed and relaxed. My tween daughter got her first "massage" - foot only - and LOVED it as well. Good first experience. read more

Mana Massage - Massage Therapy Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Got a massage from Laura, Jonathan and Manima. (three massage therapists for three persons). Best thing about it: Right above that beach, so you can hear the ocean and waves pounding the beach while you get a massage. Very relaxing atmosphere, outdoors - should have sprayed on some OFF bug repellent beforehand. We called ahead and got a 4pm or so appointment for three of us. The drive to the property was very scenic, passing by Anahola bay. 50 minutes of massage loosened my sore shoulder and relaxed us all. The business has a Lihue address, and I think it's the same person, but this was from a private residence. read more

This was the BEST couples massage my wife and I EVER had! We get monthly massages, and none of them compare. Manima made us both feel at ease and we truly enjoyed this experience, especially overlooking the Kauai coastline. The magical hands of Manima, along with the sound of the ocean, made my massage perfection. If you ever come to Kauai, we highly recommend her services. Alaho and Mahalo read more

See all

Had a wonderful, relaxing couples massage on our honeymoon. Manima was quick to answer my text message and after hiking the island a few days in a row, we were ecstatic that she could fit us in the next day! We ended up doing indoor because it was supposed to rain and it was in a very tiny little house in a quaint room. This was definitely more of a relaxing and stretching massage. She did offer us deep tissue at an additional price and we refused, so next time we will do that as we like a deeper tissue massage. I really enjoyed all the stretching, mind clearing & breath work my masseuse had me do (my husband had Manima and I had another lady whose name I can't remember sorry) Thank you again for fitting us in Manima & friend!!

After spending a week on the island, and were hours away from taking a red eye flight back home, my partner and I decided to look for a massage. We looked on Yelp and found this place. Within an hour, Leslie was able to get us in and give back to back massages. The treatment was soothing, and took away the aches. It helped me to be able to relax and sleep on the way home. So, if you're looking for a really good massage with someone who has a wonderful spirit and energy, try Mana Massage. read more

Manina was so warm and kind and the massage was healing, rejuvenating and exactly what I needed after hiking all over the island. Definitely give her a call for all your wellness needs! read more

The massage was very relaxing. They listened to what we needed and delivered perfectly. We left feeling soo much better. One of the best massages my partner has ever had. We highly recommend! read more

Hands down, the best massage I have ever received. Between the atmosphere and the kind massage therapist, we wish we had time for a second round! You will especially enjoy the birds in the background and the mountain breeze!: read more

Mana Massage - Massage Therapy Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Manima came to our location and took great care to address each of our problem areas. I was having pain in hip while walking. She found the root of the problem starting in the thigh. No problems walking this evening. Pressure was always perfect. Excellent deep tissue massage. read more

Prior to my recent trip to Kauai I suffered a neck and shoulder injury and needed some Therapeutic massage to be able to enjoy my stay, go on a much anticipated all day hike and be myself again. Manima came to my hotel room on two separate occasions and was integral in my healing process. Her technique and intuitive touch was such a god sent for me and I was able to conquer The Top of the World hike by the end of my trip. So much gratitude for her. Wish there was another one of you back in LA. Many blessings to you for your healing touch. read more

I am so glad this place came highly recommended by fellow Yelpers! Your reviews led my husband and I to this beautiful outdoor location and to a wonderful experience by two talented massage therapists. We had come to Kauai for our Anniversary weekend (we live on Oahu) and with the stress going on in our day to day lives, a massage was at the top of our list. After talking to Manima, she was able to fit us in on short notice for a massage at their location overlooking Wailua Valley and river. Can you say breathtaking? The view alone and the location immediately put us at ease. This was my husband's first time getting a massage and I think he's hooked. The location is quiet, serene and secluded. I did lomi lomi and he did some type of relaxation massage. They were receptive to the areas in our body that had more tension, and gently worked it out. I found myself doze off and fall asleep a couple times cause I was so relaxed. On our next visit to Kauai or if friends and family are visiting we will be back and we'll highly recommend. Mahalo! read more

She's an amazing masseuse and was flexible with her schedule. She definitely added to my family's vacation

My wife and I had a couples massage with Mana Massage at their home base in Lihue. It was located minutes from the airport and they operated out of the back cottage behind their home. They also offer massages on the beach and overlooking the Wailua River valley but that costs extra. The massage was relaxing and be both opted for the Lomi lomi since we have not had it yet. My wife states she could have used more pressure but she likes the painful deep tissue massages. I on the other hand like the gentler more rubbing massage. The price was reasonable and they would like cash payment if possible because it will get you a cheaper price. They will take card but will charge 8% more. Visited July 2012 read more

I a former collegiate athlete with imbalances in my musculature and was having neck pain and tension in my shoulders. Minima gave me by far the best massage I have ever had, releasing the fascia, explaining what she was doing and listening to me and asking me the right questions. It was not only relaxing but enlightening and kickstarted a rededication to my physical well-being. I look forward to returning to the island and seeing her again. I cannot recommend her more highly. Her presence and demeanor is also just absolutely delightful. She's kind, caring, intuitive, and highly skilled. read more

Manima (Leslee) is amazing. I had a two hour massage from her during my vacation in Poipu and she is truly a healer. I didn't get the chance to get a massage in her outdoor location (which I really wanted) because my whole family wanted two hour massages at our villa. I wasn't sure that we were going to be able to schedule 4 massage therapists for an outcall at the same time, but Manima was able to make it happen and coordinate everything. All four of us were very pleased with our massages - both my brother and I fell asleep either during or right after our massages. And my family is pretty hard to please with these kind of services. In addition, paying 4 massage therapists through multiple payment methods (2 of them took credit card through their iphones, and the other 2 only took check or PayPal), so was a little confusing for me and I accidentally tipped Manima way too much. She actually called me and told me that she thought I might have miscalculated the tip, she is such an honestly and kind person - that was above and beyond. She could have easily kept the money and I would have never known the difference. But she actually returned a portion of the money to me via PayPal. She has the kind of business I love to support - she is honest, kind and provides an amazing service. Worth every penny. read more

We called ahead to get an outdoor couples massage during our anniversary trip. Manima was wonderful and fit us in first thing in the morning. After a short drive we found the wonderful spot overlooking the immensely scenic Wialua River Valley. Our session under a beautiful old tree, was graced by the relaxing sounds of the river, birds singing, and the wind rustling gently through the leaves. We both experienced one of the most relaxing massages ever. Thank you Mahima and Amy, we will be back. Mahalo. read more

My boyfriend and I just received an amazing couples massage. Both Mana and Manima did a great job. Mana was super helpful when we called to set up the appointment, she definitely took her time to listen and customize the massage to our needs. They were also super flexible with our schedule. They were both very professional and definitely know what they're doing. You'll be in great hands! read more

My husband and I came to Kauai for our honeymoon and was looking for a unique massage experience. We found Manima and when we contacted her, she responded right away and answered any questions and concerns I had about weather and location. I wanted an outdoors experience and so we went with the river valley overlook. It was beautiful and you felt like you were the only ones there along with the birds and roosters crowing from afar. It was an experience never to forget. My husband and I loved our massage from Manima and Shakira. They were very good with the lomi lomi massage and trigger points. I hope to come back to Kauai in the future and use them again. read more

oh man, this was awesome. I had a massage outdoors at their property overlooking the Wailua River Valley. It was absolutely the best massage I have had in my life. No other way to describe it. read more

My husband and I booked a couple's massage near the end of our stay on Kauai. The room's location was odd (we could see past the window's curtain into the parking lot while we were changing, and someone was receiving guitar lessons in the adjacent room), but we quickly forgot about all that once the massage started. It was HEAVENLY! There have been times when I have felt worse after receiving massages. That wasn't the case with Amanda and the lomilomi style she used. Now that I'm back in California, I'm desperate to find someone who practices the lomilomi style. I also want to find coconut massage oil similar to what was used at Mana Massage, because it smells wonderful afterward! read more

Update, very late and I apoligize, but life is busy. I was contacted shortly after my review by the owner who was very understanding and sweet. She did apologize that I was unhappy with my experience and assured me that issues with the mosquitoes were being resolved. She did reimburse me for my massage and I was grateful for that. I do plan on giving them another try on my next visit to Kauai. read more

My husband and I had an early flight into Lihue and had some time before we could check into our vacation rental, so we booked an oceanside massage with Mana Massage. It was FANTASTIC. I get massage work about every other week, so I've had a lot of massages. This one was truly excellent. My husband and I are both "hurts so good" types when it comes to massage. Manima and her fellow massage therapist (sorry, I forget his name) both did excellent jobs of giving us firm, therapeutic deep tissue work while still making it deliciously relaxing. They very clearly know what they are doing, and we felt the whole time like we were in very good, competent hands. We also weren't sure if the oceanside location was worth the splurge. It definitely was. Listening to the crash of the ocean and feeling the island breeze while getting an excellent massage... such a lovely start to our vacation! Manima was also very easy to communicate with via text message, which was super convenient for me. I think we may have to make Mana Massage a tradition when we visit Kauai! Thank you, Manima and staff!! read more

Yes, yes, yes to Manima and Mana Massage. Beautiful experience. Thank you.

Manima came to my room at the St Regis in Princeville on 2 separate days and provided amazing healing and massage services. We were scheduled to do aqua cranial but the waves on the North Shore were too big so since I didn't feel like driving to a calmer beach we did additional sessions in the room. I love how considerate and honest she was about the water conditions. I practice several different forms of the healing arts so it's very important for me to get good sessions regularily to recharge my battery. Manima's sessions were complete bliss. The energy releases and cranial sacral unwinding I experienced were just heavenly. Thank you Manima! read more

Wonderful couples massage! Manima was very accommodating and worked with our schedule on short notice. Highly recommend! If we lived in Kauai, we would go back often!! read more

We contacted Manima for a massage for both my daughter in law and myself. She was readily available by phone. We set up the appointments, back to back, later that morning. For $20 extra she traveled to our hotel in Poipu. Well worth the money for the convenience. Manima is a professional and is exceptional at her craft. I've had regular massages at home and on travels around the world. I've been lucky to experience some great massage therapists. None have been better. I, and my daughter in law, can both attest to her expertise. My son is scheduled for his massage tomorrow morning. She does not take credit or debit cards, you can pay by Pay Pal but they charge a fee. In hindsight, paying by cash would have been better. read more

My friend and I received a massage from Manima and it was was wonderful. We booked the Wailua River valley location and it was so peaceful and relaxing. She is very professional and listens to you and asks about any issues you may have before you start. We got our massage the day after we landed and it was a great way to start our vacation. read more

A few months back I had a couples massage at the Wialua Valley Overlook spot. Definitely worth the extra $. This made my girlfriend's birthday very special. This tranquil spot is pure magic. This beautiful spot was totally rejuvenating. During our massage I had visions of these beautiful trees spiraling upwards sending energy through my whole body. At one point Karen was doing a massage stroke on my feet and it felt like her hands transformed into butterflies, flicking my feet with their wings. I could really tell that you both were connected with the spirits of the trees and the valley during the massage. Thank you for everything you do and helping to make our first trip to Kauai an unforgettable one. Mahalo! read more

I had a one hour Lomilomi massage today. It was quite lovely. Leslee did a great job and intuitively knew what pressure I needed in which spots. She listened to me ahead of time and worked on my problem areas accordingly. I will definitely come back to see her on my next Kauai trip!! read more

I had one of the best massages of my life from Manima today. I didn't need to tell her where I was sore, or what my body needed. She used just the right amount of pressure, stretch, and relaxation with her Lomilomi technique. I went to the Kapa'a location and could hear the ocean and feel the breeze. I'm just sad that I will have to wait for another vacation to book another massage with Manima. read more

My husband and I had one last day left in Kauai before flying home on the Red Eye. We booked a couples massage outdoors, overlooking the Sacred Wailua River Valley. The location was amazing and the massages were the BEST EVER! We have both had many massages in the past and I can honestly say that these were the very best! Leslee and Laurel combined deep tissue and Lomilomi techniques so you come away feeling relaxed and not bruised. Getting to listen to the birds and hear the gentle breezes was a bonus. The location is perfect and very relaxing. Getting to shower after having our massages allowed us to have a wonderful dinner at Dukes before flying out feeling refreshed and ready to fall asleep as we flew back to reality. Thank you, ladies, for a wonderful experience! :) read more
