Each hale offers an exclusive sanctuary to enjoy private time before or after spa and wellness treatments, or to reserve for your personal use. Infrared saunas, indoor and outdoor showers and soaking pools in a private garden allow you to enrich and reflect in peace.
All spa treatments incorporate 30 minutes of hale time (included in the service duration) to unwind and indulge in quiet luxury.
Share a couples massage and nurture connection with your partner in a luxurious environment designed to blur the boundary between indoor and outdoor space.
Our stunning onsen garden boasts 10 heated soaking tubs nestled amid garden foliage for private contemplation and relaxation.
Situated in a peaceful setting of bountiful trees and flowering plants, our heated outdoor pool has two 25-meter lap lanes for swimming and three whirlpools. For your enjoyment we also offer poolside dining and refreshments.
A focal point of the grounds is a serene pond, filled with koi fish and lotus flowers to help relax and rejuvenate. Enjoy peaceful moments of quietude on one of the many platform decks overlooking the water.
Travel is made effortless with concierge transfers from Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye International Airport to Lānaʻi – through our luxurious charter air service via Lānaʻi Air – which is included with your reservation at Sensei Lānaʻi, A Four Seasons Resort.
Lānaʻi Air is owned by Sensei co-founder Larry Ellison and is located in a private terminal at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport.
Four Seasons’ staff members will accompany you every step of the way, beginning with a 35-minute flight to Lānaʻi, then transporting you to the resort – about a 10-minute drive from the airport.
If you are arriving from Maui, there is also a ferry from Maui to Manele Harbor on Lānaʻi that takes approximately one hour across the Auau Channel.
