sage is $130. The price, of course, includes access to all the aforementioned amenities, and
you're free to relax in the garden setting even once your massage is through.
The Luana Spa Retreat (5050 Uakea Rd., 808/248-8855, www.luanaspa.com ) , on the
slopes of Ka'uiki Hill right behind Pranee's Thai food restaurant, offers a more low-key
experience. Services such as massages, scrubs, and facials take place in their secluded
garden yurt, although for an additional $10 you can upgrade to the thatched roof hale with
a view gazing out over Hana Bay. The vibe here is more organic than at the Travaasa Hana
Spa across the ballpark, and at only $80 for a 60-minute massage, you can soothe your
spirit without having to open your pocket nearly as wide.
If you're staying in a bed-and-breakfast and are looking for a mobile massage therapist,
Cynthia at Hana Massage (808/268-6888, www.hanamassage.com ) is a licensed mas-
seuse well-versed in multiple areas of massage and recommended by locals.
Shopping
PA'IA
Once known only for hippies, surf culture, and sugarcane, Pa'ia now features some of
the island's trendiest boutiques. The bikini shops, beachwear boutiques, and craft galleries
populating this one-stoplight town keep serious shoppers occupied for hours.
Art Galleries
One of the only art galleries in town is Turnbull Fine Art (137 Hana Hwy., 808/579-9385,
www.turnbullfineart.com , 11am-7pm Mon.-Sat.) on the Hana side of the intersection. This
store is an extension of the rural showroom on the twisting road to Kahakuloa. Art aficion-
ados will appreciate the creative style of these longtime local artists.
Surf Shops
It should come as no surprise that Pa'ia has its fair share of surf shops. If you're in need of
any surf, skate, or even snowboard wear, you'll find HI Tech Maui (58 Baldwin Ave., 808/
579-9297, www.surfmaui.com , 9am-6pm daily), Sailboards Maui (22 Baldwin Ave., 808/
