Reviews of Smile Massage & Spa
Jon Mick Gabriel
I booked my massage through Classpass and was not sure what to expect. My massage was one hour with Julie was my massage therapist. Julie was personable, friendly and talked me through which areas of my body were tight and needed more attention. She shared that deep tissue was an additional cost. Had I not opted for the additional Chinese cupping I would have added that on. It was my first experience with cupping and found it relaxing.
I would recommend and would go again.
See my photo for prices as of July 2022.
Tommy Holdefer
My partner and I went in for the 60 min couples massage + facial. I recommend both, and I can't wait to try their other offerings when I get the chance to come back to Hawaii.
The establishment, once inside, is very clean and welcoming. The massage therapists, Christie and Yuli, are professional, well humored, and very strong! We cannot recommend this place enough.
Just give them a call, and they will give you instructions on how to get in, pricing, etc.
Thanks!!

I really enjoyed my massage here! Don't let the set up fool you, I was a little worried when I drove up. But they remodeled an apartment into a spa, and its actually VERY nice inside! Prices are extremely reasonable, and they have a variety of services. Lilly was amazing, she was able to find my sore spots easily and spent more time there. Christie is the owner and she is a total sweet heart! I will 100% return here next time I am in town. Well worth it!
Allyson Wagner
Amazing massage! The spa was a former apartment converted into a very clean, well decorated, relaxing space. I had the pleasure of getting a deep tissue massage by Christie, a masseuse who clearly has been in the practice for a while. Christie knew a lot about the body, muscles, pressure points, and gave one of the best deep tissue massages I have ever had. The pricing was also extremely reasonable for the quality of the massage. I would absolutely recommend this spa and more specifically, Christie.
Glenn Asakawa
One of the most thorough and relaxing massages I've had. I picked Smile because it was just a few minutes walk from my Airbnb condo. Lily was very attentive and could tell my shoulders and neck were tight and she really worked out the knots with a combo of hands, elbows, forearms, and knees. I also had cupping done for the first time and it was in interesting. I'll wait a few days to see how it feels. Overall, Smile is a very clean and welcoming parlor and would gladly return!
曹征
LiLi was very professional and the place is very very clean.
I had a back injury awhile back from nursing work,masseuse gave me the best relief ever!
I would recommend to anyone with back pain!
Debbie Ye
Wow! My experience at this clean, Smile massage spa was wonderful. I was treated by a friend so l
brought along another friend. She was also very pleased with her massage. Christie worked on me and her pressure/style was great for my athletic body. I plan to be a loyal client moving forward.
Leslie Chiang
I have never had a professional massage before and this was a great first experience! Christy is very professional, funny and charming. The space is very clean and comfortable. I loved the hot stones and my neck, shoulders, and upper back felt so much more relaxed afterward.
Angela Bigler
My husband and I had an amazing couples massage at Smile. Everyone was so kind and welcoming and it was a nice, comfy space. I have very tight shoulders and the masseuse worked out the knots using several different techniques- awesome to experience the variety of massage types in one massage. It was my husband’s first massage and he enjoyed it. We are so glad we went to Smile!!!
Elena Coppens
Great experience! They are very friendly and professional. They text you easy instructions on how to get to their building. They welcome with you a smile. Had a couples massage and we both were very pleased with our massages. I like it medium and my husband prefers deep tissue. We both got exactly what we asked for. I highly recommend this place for the perfect massage that you are looking for.
Jennifer Adams
Christie was incredible. She was able to work efficiently and effectively on my rope like muscles and deep tension in my shoulders and neck. My shoulders feel like they have released and dropped inches away from my ears. The staff is very kind, open and welcoming. I felt instantly at ease.
Brian Miller
WOW!! Words can't describe how amazing of an experience we had. My wife and I had a couples massage. Sammi and Lilly were our massage therapist and they were absolutely hands down better than any massage we have ever had. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. you will walk out a new person.
Samuel Saulter
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯 💯
Very friendly people, professional, and fun!
The massage was perfect. I felt amazing for my Hawaiian vacation thanks to Christie. She worked on all my knots and I left feeling like a new man!
Definitely coming back to Smile every time I come to Hawaii
steve b
Lilly was my masseuse and she was fantastic - very skillful, friendly and knowledgeable. The spa isn't obvious from the street but Christie who made my appointment was incredibly friendly and helpful in providing clear and easy directions. Not big or fancy but clean, nice and priced very reasonably for the quality they provide.
Bryan Cheng
For an early Valentine's Day present for my wife and l, we did the 90 min couple's
massage. Christie and Lily were both great. Everyone was super nice. Communication and directions on how to get there was clear. I wish l had set it
up for 120 min We would definitely go back.
Rina Neuberger
Had a couples massage here with Christie and Sammy. It was very thorough with the perfect amount of pressure. I had pain in my neck to where the was a limited range of motion, but Christie was able to find my problem area and gave it extra attention. I walked out with full range of motion back in my neck. Would recommend.
Jeremy Pan
Christie and Lily gave us really good deep tissue massage. My fiancé and I were looking for a massage place that offers shower because we planned to have hike and massage before our flight. Christie was very kind to let us shower there and gave us a great massage session. Would highly recommend this place!
Tina Vridhachalam
My boyfriend and I did the 60 min couple's massage and it was the best massage we've ever had!!! It was $135 plus tip which was totally reasonable. And the ladies were so sweet! Highly recommend
Tien Le
It'll be hard to find a massage spot that'll top this one! I've been getting massages for a minute now, and the level of attention and detail given was incredible. They also offer additional services such as cupping which I also got. Thanks again Christie for the great massage!
杨帆
I had gotten the happily ever after package deal and I can honestly say 100% recommended especially if you need to relax and focus on your self! I had Christie do my massage and facial and I can honestly feel like a whole new person. After everything we had got tea with a delicious cookie afterwards.
I thank this wonderful staff for amazing experience!
Lu Pan
Really good! I have tried 3 massage places and this one is the best. They are very professional and experienced. I feel sooooo released and comfortable after the massage. Definitely will go again.
Jose Perez
Amazing experiences Christie was great, the massage was one of the best I’ve had. very professional, she was able to find the areas that needed more work. Highly recommend
Julia Mundo
Smile massage is a hidden gem. I got a massage from Julie with the added cupping, I felt so relaxed coming out after that 90 minutes. They accept walk ins, and every time I call they’re available! I’m going back again and am happy to have found my new massage spot.
Cruz Meza
My wife and I went in for a couples massage and it was phenomenal. They were so Welcoming, Clean, and Professional! Lily and Sammy were AMAZING!! Definitely recommend!!
University Liaison CIE
For the most part our experience at Smile Massage & Spa was perfect. There were 5 of us; one was pregnant, one was a first-timer, one had a bad sunburn and then my wife and I. All of us except my wife had a wonderful experience...just right pressure, the hot stone was excellent, the use of CBD and coconut oil was wonderful and they treated my pregnant daughter-in-law perfectly....she LOVED her massage. My wife came on a different day and we're not sure what happened. We think there was some miscommunication or something. She wanted a relaxing Swedish massage with medium to low pressure but what she received was a roughing up. The therapist punched her three times in three different locations and it did not feel like an accepted practice we know of (we've had several massages before) and these punches left bruises. The therapist jumped up on the table and straddled my wife and then started working on her. We've never had that happen before either. The therapist was rough and my wife has several bruises now as a result. Not sure what happened. She was also not very sociaable...not sure if she was having a bad day or not...but punching and straddling the way she did does not seem good therapy. This is the only negative experience we had. My therapist (Christine) was perfect, funny, sociable and knowledgeable. Thanks Christine. My son also enjoyed your work (he had a bad sunburn). I would go again if I ever return to Hawaii. Advice: communicate exactly what you want before you start and be clear on what you want and don't be afraid to ask your therapist to change their approach if it's not satisfactory.
Paige Allbright
the hubby and i went for a couples massage. probably the best thing I've ever done in my life!! ask for Sammi and Lilly and they will not disappoint. these ladies know what they are doing. they will make areas pop that you didnt know possible. I feel like a new person!
Tina Lampus
Called this morning and I was a little surprised to get an appointment so quickly. I read some reviews. I arrived at the apartment building and had to get buzzed in. Felt good about the controlled entry. Sami asked me a few questions about areas I felt needed more attention. Sami spent 2 hours working on sore spots on my neck, shoulder and rest of me. Added a little facial also. She has a magic touch I feel a lot better now than the past few weeks. Thanks again Sami great to meet you.
Allison Shlofrock
What an amazing experience! Not only was the deep tissue massage one of the best I’ve ever had, but Christy (sorry if I spelled it wrong) was also super informative, not to mention so sweet and hilarious. I wish I lived here so I could go all the time!
C.J.M
A wonderful caring and extremely experienced business. Very professional, warm and inviting . Office was spotless and I experienced amazing muscle pain relief by my therapist Sami ,who I will be seeing often for my wellness plan. She discussed my pain and any concerns and worked diligently to relieve my pain. I walked in with my ice pack on my neck and walked out with 100% improvement. Simply amazing ! I won’t be keeping this a secret. So glad I went today. They saved my weekend from horrible pain. I thoroughly enjoyed all techniques and each one helped so much delivered with the utmost privacy and respect. So grateful. Thank you!

Patrick Bateman
My legs and hands had never felt this good after visiting massage shops. THANKs to Samie. This place is much better compared with the other one nearby. Wish I found here earlier. Definitely coming back again in the rest of my vacation.
Viking Mermaid
I had a great massage from Christy! My partner had a massage from her and it was so good she paid for one for me. Christy literally massaged the toxins out of my muscles. It’s been years since I had a massage and this was a fabulous one!
Kyle mauger
Lily is the best masseuse I’ve ever experienced! Really though, I’ve had a lot of massage therapy and she knows her stuff! Tip these ladies generously!
Heather Bahr
Lily was so incredible using her hands to get a deep deep tissue massage. I had so much muscle ache from surgery and she knocked it out of the park for me!!
Rachel Anderson
We got a couples massage. 60 min. Beautiful view. Great massage. Christy did mine, a little harder than I would have liked but I felt AMAZING after. I stuck with the roughness knowing I probably needed it. My husband who weighs double me and is a foot taller got the smaller lady. I wish the stronger one I got had switched and did my husbands massage. This place is fairly easy to find, follow the GPS. I found this business on living social, when I text the number to book an appt she said she would match the price of the living social offer. (I happily obliged since they only get a portion when the offers are purchased through a 3rd party) I recommend this place for a massage.
Virginia Hurtado
By far, the best massage I have ever had in my life. This place is a hidden gem. The facility is very professional, neat, clean, and organized. Lily the therapist did an amazing session, I left feeling like new. If you are ever in the are please go ,You will not be disappointed.
Stanley Yuan
Went here for a deep tissue massage with my partner and it was great! Both masseuses were able to hit the right spots and I came out feeling great and thoroughly massaged! They both did a good job of checking how we were doing and how much pressure to apply.
Will definitely come again anytime we’re in Honolulu!!
Karissa Wood
My partner and I were in desperate need of a massage. I called Smile at 845am, I realized how early it was and was shocked that they even answered! They were happy to get us in just 2 hours later. The couples massage with Christie and Sammie was incredible. Christie rocked my world and actually worked out so many of my knots. She took her time and was knowledgeable about working with scoliosis so that’s a plus too. I will be coming back. Crazy Christie you are a rockstar! 🤩
Linda Gallegos
I’ve had many deep tissue massages and this was by far the BEST! Christie was professional, funny and awesome! I was a little worried at first because the place is hidden however it was well worth it! The place was clean, nicely set up and easy to access from the Waikiki strip! I would definitely recommend it and Christie! 👍 …
Karl Abitz
Julie did such a great job with her massage! I came in with my girlfriend for a couples deep tissue massage with heated towel and hot stones as well. At the end of it, I got a free neck crack and it felt so great! I saw my girlfriend’s face lit up afterwards and she couldn’t have looked any more beautiful. Great workers with a great sense of humor. Would totally recommend and all for a great price too!!! Mahalo!!!
Nika Tanabe
Excellent service! Christie is amazing. Very professional and use many therapies in one hour! I require deep tissue and WOW she is awesome. Her skill level is second to none. (she was even able to crack my back in several places to align my back! This wonderful experience will be my only therapist from now on!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Grace Halter
Lilly was an amazing massage therapist! Clean atmosphere, calming and very kind. Felt like I was at home. My husband and I went here on our honeymoon and it was perfect for our first massage ever!
Marcia Rotunda
Excellent deep tissue massage by Christine at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend. It is located very conveniently in Waikiki towards the Diamond Head end.
Jamie
We went for a couples massage on our honeymoon, staff was wonderful and sweet. Their priority was making sure you felt comfortable. Would definitely recommend
Rebecca Mauro
Husband and I had the best couples massage! The prices were very fair, and they also provided us with very easy instructions on how to get there. We had a very relaxing time after hiking and surf lessons. Lily and Julie were amazing! Highly recommend coming here when staying in Honolulu.
Chris Wells
My wife and I visited smile massage for a couples during our vacation in Honolulu. We both work out frequently and have very tight muscles. This was a great spot for a strong massage to relieve stress and tension. I will definitely come back next time we are here.
Maddie Davis
Just finished an amazing massage with Christie. She knew exactly what she was doing and used many advanced massage techniques to further my experience. Not only do I feel like my muscles are relaxed, my head is more clear as well. I am sure to sleep well tonight. Loved this place, Christie, and my massage. I cannot wait for my next massage!
Daniel Flores
Christie and lily gave us the best couples massage. The body scrub was amazing and they made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. Great value compared to other places with just as high quality. Highly recommend.
Nicole Flannigan
Still the BEST massage ever! Very well taken cared of and super friendly. Love this place!
Mike Figueroa
A quite heavenly massage! Christie was fun and professional during my Swedish massage. The staff are all superb. Definitely recommend it!
D Cabreros
On the spur of the moment I decided to book a massage session at Smile Massage. I selected this place because it was close to my home. When I called, the person I spoke with was very professional and pleasant.
It was around noon when I called and I had asked for a same day appointment and she offered me 1pm or 6pm. Then she discussed something with someone in the background, then came back and asked if I can come now. So after a quick shower I headed over.
The business is in what appears to be formerly an apartment. It looks like the building owner converted the whole second floor from living apartments to businesses. The business appeared to be very neat and clean, with a very relaxed atmosphere. There were no other customers in the reception area, and two employees.
The masseuse that tended to me was Chris (I think that is her name). She was very friendly and funny. I was not in the bit apprehensive as I have had massages before, but I think her candor would put anyone at ease. After showing me their "menu" she asked if I would like any "add-on's". I got a 1 hour massage and a face cleansing add-on. The prices are pretty reasonable. It was a total of $100 (70+30) plus tax.
I had strained my shoulder and neck area earlier in the week during an exercise session and had been aching for a few days, I couldn't turn my head toward one side without some pain. My shoulders and upper back were feeling the consequences of that and were also tensed up. So I had hoped a nice massage would relieve my discomfort, and it did.
The massage room itself was one of the bedrooms of the apartment, it was clean, comfortable and a/c cooled, but not chilly. When she started the session, I could tell that it was going to be just what I needed. She used her hands, arms, elbows and knuckles and got all the kinks out of my back and shoulders. There was even one point where she used hot stones in the massage on my back. I admit at some points the massage did hurt, but it was all worth it. The massage covered my neck, shoulders, back, legs, feet, arms and hands. She also cracked my upper back, and that was great!
The face cleansing was also amazing. The products she used on my face were very light and refreshing. I think they were unscented, because I don't remember any strong perfumes in them. You can also purchase the products that she uses for your own use. I felt clean, refreshed and moisturized.
Throughout the session Chris made occasional conversation that was not the usual massage conversation. It was very entertaining, and out of the normal "relaxing silence" that you have at most massage businesses. Of course they had music playing in the background that was very calming and mellow.
When I left there, all the tension in my back, neck and shoulders was gone. My neck was still achy, but I could turn my head in both directions without any pain or restriction. I felt great, refreshed and relaxed.
Smile Massage and Spa, highly recommended! I think I may go back at least once a month for maintenance.
Veela Funk
Such an amazing experience!!! Christie and Yuli were the best, my mother and I came to get a massage and wow best massage I’ve had ever. They made me and my mother feel very comfortable. We did the 50 minutes full body massage and the lip mask. So relaxing and got my back cracked also. They are super nice and funny. Definitely will come back again next time I’m in Hawaii
thanks again ladies!
Tiffanie Feuillant
This place is amazing. Lily my masseuse was so good, she found all the tight spots in my back and applied perfect pressure. I would definitely come back!
Miss C
Christie gave me one of the best massages of my life. Her deep tissue was amazing. Highly recommend!
Jennifer
I’ve had many deep tissue massages and this one from Christie has to be among the better ones I’ve had. Christie made sure the pressure was just right for me, and was attentive to my request for either more or less pressure. The place was clean, nicely set up and easy to access from the Waikiki strip, but not at Waikiki tourist prices which was even better. I would definitely recommend this place and Christie and plan to return for at least one more massage before heading back to Canada.
Aaron McGuire
This place is run by two Chinese women who for the most part are professional in their art but are shady in the approach of enticing the client to purchase there full package massage. I thought I was going to get a full body relaxing stress relieving massage with deep tissue kneading. What I got was just that with what most would call a pressured happy ending. If you are looking for a legitimate first class massage then this is not the place you want to go. First and last time for me, never again!
Tope Oshodi
We had a couples massage and these ladies were Amazing!!! Christie and Yuli worked on all those knots in our backs and necks. We both had deep tissue massages and they really dug deep. We would definitely recommend them. I echo prior reviews about the location but communication was great and we had no trouble finding the place.
Shirley Qian
My husband and I got a couples massage and requested deep tissue. It was one of the best deep tissue massages I've ever received, because Yuli and Lulu truly made the physical effort to knead out the tight spots on our shoulders and backs. This was truly an effective massage -- no pain no gain!
Debra Leonard
Husband and I had couples massage. Both were wonderful. Price was reasonable.
Kaylah Gilbert
Christy did an amazing job with me and my husband’s massage. You can feel with tension being released as she worked out the knots from our travels. Thank you guys so much!
Brenda Molina
I went to Hawaii for vacation and wanted a relaxing massage. THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I will definitely recommend this place to all the people looking for a relaxing, stress free time! My husband and I felt very good once we left and Kristy and Lusi are just amazing! And they have good couple deals! 😄 …
leslye “les” martin
Absolutely Fabulous! Lily has magical hands. My whole body arrived in bad shape. Sore, tight and aching. I left 2 hours later with more mobility and flexibility. My range of motion increased quite a bit. Very quiet and soothing atmosphere. Mahalo Lily, I’ll be back.
R O
My husband and I had a great deep tissue couple massage here. Christie and Yuli are excellent at releasing muscle knots and are very strong. Will definitely come back here the next time we visit Honolulu again.
Jordanna Barton
Decided to pamper myself on vacation and I received the best massage of my life! I highly recommend them and will be back!
Shanon Safi
I went for the 2 hour massage and wow! Absolute bliss. I called the same day and was able to get an appointment. If you’re not from the area, they give easy to follow instructions on how to find them
kendal wilde
Great massage, the pressure was perfect. I also added the facial wash. I loved the products she used along with the gentle wash. Great add on. We will be back soon! Kristy and Julie are the best!
Darron Wood
Excellent deep tissue massage. Was able to get me in on same day request.
Dominique Dixon
I would like to say best massage I've had here! They do it all very professional and nice! ASK FOR LILY!!!
Anika Aftab
I’ve been several times, both with my boyfriend and my friend and it was amazing! I’ve tried the cupping as well as the deep tissue massage with CBD oil. Day to day, I spend a great deal of time sitting at a desk and they helped resolve a great deal of tension in my shoulders and lower back! 10/10 would recommend!
Justin Brannan
The best massage place on the island. They are very friendly and we had a great family message. My wife my 7 year old daughter and myself. I would highly recommend if are looking for the best message on Oahu.
Jenn Price
My sister and I booked a couple's massage for the first day of our Hawaiian vacation. It was AWESOME! One of the best massages I've ever received, and I'm a chiropractor so I'm pretty picky about my massages. I asked for a deep tissue massage, and my massage therapist Yuli delivered (don't tell her to go hard unless you really mean it, because she's not messing around, lol). We had great banter with Yuli and Christie throughout the treatment and were able to have a laugh while also relaxing. I felt like melted butter by the end of it. I liked the stretches she did to me as well. I really felt like she opened up my shoulders and hips. I will definitely be booking a massage here again the next time I'm in town.
Ian Lizardo
Amazing experience with Christie and Yuli. I was offered a combination massage with hot stones and towel and they definitely did not disappoint. Left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and recharged for the rest of my stay. And they have quite a sense of humor to boot! Highly recommend for all those tired and achy feet out there.
Sariya Wattanatam
My boyfriend and I were pretty sore from sitting on the plane for 6 hours so we decided to get a massage and I cant express how amazing it was! I asked for deep tissue and Christie definitely did that. As for my boyfriend Lucy walked on his back and also did some deep tissue for him and he said he feels like he’s 16 again! If we have the chance we will definitely be returning before we head back home. Highly recommend!! Thank you again, Christie and Lucy :)
Chaz Bryant
This massage experience was INCREDIBLE!! My masseuse was Yuli, I asked for a deep tissue massage, splurged a tiny bit on the CBD oil, and she delivered in spades. Yuli was funny and friendly and professional and EXCELLENT at checking in with the amount of pressure she was using as well as informing me of what was coming next. I was laughing and moaning and the experience was exactly what I was looking for. She worked out knots that I didn't know I had, and knots that I knew about that had been developing and tightening for (almost certainly) years. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If you're on vacation, go early so that you can go again. If you live on Oahu, it's worth the trip from anywhere on the island.
Nicole Embry
My best friend and I went for hot stone massages. Christie and Yumi were so friendly and kind. There are services you can add on and we both can't wait to go back! Such a relaxing way to end our vacation💆🏾♀️ …
Clark Pierron
My first massage experience did not disappoint. Very soothing atmosphere and attentive service. Christie made sure I was comfortable throughout. I highly recommend this establishment.
Arturo Flores
My wife and I got a one hour couples massage today. Yoli was my masseuse and she was great. Christy was my wife's masseuse. We will definitely go back before our vacation is over!
Slimjamin Franklin
This Place is amazing! Booked deep tissue for myself and scrub for my wife we loved it. I have chronic back pain and Christy worked out several tough areas.
Shona DeShazo
I had an amazing massage from Yuli!!! I was extremely stressed and sore from working and was surprised that they were able to give me an appointment same day as calling. The place is extremely clean and the music, so calming. Yuli was such a joy and made me feel so comfortable. She worked my muscles incredibly well with CBD oil and felt all the tension & soreness alleviated. There is only 1 parking stall so try to find close by and walk. It’s SO WORTH IT!!!! Thank you Yuli!
Alina Moua
I got a 90min massage and the massage therapist said I had to tip 20%, I didn’t mind but I wasn’t aware of that
Grace Tran
My husband and I were in Oahu to celebrate his birthday and our anniversary! My husband absolutely loves massages, and I wanted to surprise him with a massage.
This place is a hidden gem! It's definitely a "hole in the wall" in terms of location, but I called the evening before to book - and they texted me directions with photos, and even when I got lost, they came downstairs to get me. The room was clean and we were given rectangle bins/baskets to put our clothes in.
Christie and Yuli were friendly and also VERY GOOD. When we came in, they asked what kind of massage we each wanted for our 60-minute couple's massage - I was surprised that they seemed like they could do it all.
I got a Combo massage of Swedish and Thai, and my husband got Deep Tissue - and it surprised him how strong Yuli was able to massage him (usually he needs the strongest pressure possible, but this time he asked for medium) 😅
They were able to release all of our tensions in our bodies, they were engaging and made some fun conversation, and made sure that we were comfortable throughout the massage.
The hot stones were very hot, but they reassured us it was good and wouldn't burn us - and it did feel good! Christie even focused more on massaging my head when I mentioned I liked head massages.
Christie also gave me a free lip mask treatment made of beeswax and other natural ingredients, which was like a lip gloss / lipstick but didn't stain or come off easily. They sell it separately if you want it - and even though I didn't want to buy it, I didn't feel shamed 😇
Price-wise, it's good value given how good the massages were! If you like the gliding type of massages, this was one of the best.
Highly recommend coming here when you're visiting Oahu!
Golie Keovan
Christie was amazing! She has beautiful Asian body work massage skills and added cupping to my treatment. The acupuncturist I saw 1 week after was very impressed with her cupping ability too! Highly recommended
!

It is really a great massage for shoulder pain which I had for more than a week. Now I feel relieved and comfortable with less pain. I suggest this place for genuine massage for any specific relaxation.
Adam Cormier
I had a wonderful experience at Smile Massage & Spa. I've been sore from work and Christie and Lily did a great job working on my injuries! Highly recommended!
Jessica Cruz
Best deep tissue massage & very sweet staffs💛

This place is very beautiful calm and very relaxing ! Lily does such a great job at massaging and loosening up your muscles! I recommend this massage place 1000% <3 we loved the couples massage ! Much appreciated and Mahalos ♥️♥️
Debra Hughes
Fabulous value!! Excellent deep tissue massage, better than plenty of ones I’ve had by LMTs in Washington State. Yuli was super sweet but don’t let that fool you, man is she strong!! Exactly what I needed to release tension and distress. CBD oil was a great add on and the additional essential oils smelled great. Facial was lovely too - Japanese products I’m familiar with and bonus lip treatment. Will definitely come back if I’m in the area again!! 5*****
Linda Hu
I had luck to have found this massage place, professional service and the practice is very clean and comfortable. I have back and neck pains. After a few sessions I had very good results. Like a miracle. Defintely give a try whether for leasure or phisical treatment.
william dawbarn
Ordered the Combo with CBD oil +hot stone+hot towel.COCO was my therapist .Friendly and happy at what she does. Is very strong , can go deep if you want. felt comfortable . Good service for me. No complaints.
Cania Lee
I had Sarah as a massage therapist, best massage I've had. CBD oil, hot stones, hot towel, deep tissue, etc. All around great. Last minute at 9pm and she squeezed me in before closing. Will be returning before I go back home. Highly recommend.
S Ahmed
You have to get a massage here! It was one of the best I've ever had (and I've paid $400 for one before and it doesn't even come close). Christine opened up all the knots I had and cracked my neck and back and it all felt sooooo good.
Definitely don't be put off by the location! It might seem a little sketch, but they are super clean, professional, and very friendly. They even text you pictures of the location and how to get buzzed in.
jieflower
Christie and lily did our massage . I was impressed by their body scrub/ shower combo and clean interior . I will be back soon
allison nahoopii
I loved this place.Its not a fancy spa but it is clean and cozy!I like that you can call last minute and they get you in.I was suffering big time at 5pm at night.They got me in ,in an hour! I opted for a 2 hour sports massage and L. was amazing and when I got off the table I felt like a new woman.You go here for the massage.If you want fancy then pay double somewhere else.Can not say enough good things about this place.I will return!
Stefanie Gapinski
OMG...I have had many massages over the years but none compare to the Chinese therapeutic massage I had with Yuli. Deep tissue with hot stones and hot towels. I floated out of there I was so relaxed. Without me saying anything, Yuli was able to identify my troublesome spots. She is fantastic!
Susan Radvansky
My husband and I did a couples massage and we loved this place. They went deep because we asked for it and they worked out a bunch on knots on my back and shoulders. I highly recommend this place. Lucy was my massage therapist and I can't remember the name of other one.
B. Hender
My wife and I are on vacation and we were looking y for a couples massage. This was honestly the best massage either of us have ever had. It was walking distance from our hotel in Waikiki and the relaxation can not be beat. I recommend this place very much.
Christine Cha
Lucy & Christie provided a really excellent deep tissue massage for me and my partner. Most massage therapists, especially in touristic areas, don't really offer a proper deep tissue massage like this one. (If you don't feel like you've been beaten up a bit afterwards, the pressure probably wasn't enough to actually help.)
The massage studio is in a mixed use building that is shared with a lot of other businesses; no big flashy sign out front. But once you get in, you'll see it's very professional and clean, and the therapists are highly skilled.
If only we weren't tourists... we'd be back every week!
Josh Parmenter
Christie was amazing!! Gave me an amazing deep tissue massage and cupping and also gave me some tips to help with my posture long term! Will be coming back again!
Noor Bhat
Amazing massage place! Christy did mine and I can say that was the best massage I ever had, she relieved the tension in my neck and shoulders like magic and my lower back pain, she knew exactly what she was doin and asked me first if I have any specific issues! They are welcoming, loving and so funny! It’s a must go to when in Waikiki! And ladies try her lip mask and balm, trust me!
Taylor Ford
Lily was amazing! I highly reccommend getting the Hot Coconut Oil Treatment, very relaxing and peaceful experience.
Amanda Milanak
Absolutely amazing couples massage! We would highly recommend. There’s no sign on the building and they had to come get us which made us skeptical but once we got into the business they were extremely professional and so nice! Best massages we’ve ever had!
Jennifer Cullen
B E ST MESSAGE EVER!!!. Went with my 2 adult kids and daughter-in-law. It was hard to find as it is in a building that looks like apartments and at first I was uneasy and skeptical. As it turns out it is super clean, professional and everyone was friendly. Kirstie was absolutely amazing. All 4 of us agreed it was the best message we've ever had. A DEFINITE must do. You will not be disappointed!! Thank you everyone at smile message!! You made our trip even more amazing😁
Chris Ayers
We had an excellent experience this week with the Valentine's Day Couples special. Very relaxing massage. Christie and Yuli were both excellent. My wife and I would recommend them.
madelyne corcino
Phenomenal massages and spa services! I feel brand new after every visit and learn more about pain management from such smart ladies. Best massage spa in town, hands down 🌺 …
Zufeng He
Best massage I had . Sami and lily both did great job . Will be back soon
Ruby Chen
I think I have just had the best massage I have ever had. When Yuli first touched me and told me my back is very tight, I had no idea what she was talking about. That is, until she got to work and very professionally smooth out all the knots I had along my back, shoulder blades, neck, and arms. Now I understand all the headaches, frozen shoulder, knuckles pain I kept having living in the cold weather in the mainland. Until Yuli worked on my hips, thighs, knees, calves, and feet, I didn’t realize how tight everything was and why walking was so painful. To me, this is more like a medical massage because whatever the problems my body had, Yuli just went in and thoroughly fixed them. I wish I could live here so I can come in more often.
jpchado
I got a two great deep tissue massages this week. The staff are very friendly, the location is very close to Waikiki, and their office is clean. I will continue to go back often.
Jen White
Christie and Yuli are wonderful. She was knowledgeable and kind. Her massage really worked out the knots and she made sure I left feeling great. Thank you again.
Aalina
Had multiple visits with to them. Christine and Yuli are experts every time walked out with all areas being done. Very accommodating and friendly. Clean . Great w kids as well yet do very intense deep tissue for my spouse who is a tough one . Thank you ☺️
justcuz75
Provided great service. I needed a body scrub and they did really good to clear my skin up. I will be returning because they did a great job. I highly recommend these guys. :)
Larissa Blick
I have done a couples massage here twice from Lisa and lulu, they are amazing!!! I've paid for several high end spas in the past and I'd have to say this is one of the best massages I've had. (I only wish there was a sauna and jacuzzi to relax in) If you book directly with smiles they will give you a better deal. Both times I booked last minute and had no issues getting in. I will definitely be going back.
Kayla Quinn
Christie and Yuli were wonderful. My boyfriend and I needed deep tissue massages and due to the nature of our work requires a lot of muscle. Christie and Yuli left us feeling lighter.
Great place. Thank you!!
Lauren Araiza
Auntie Christie and Lily took very good care. Hands of an angel and gives tips to better posture and care. Would 100% recommend!
PJ Schneider
My wife and I were in town and after 3 days of walking and a hike of Diamondhead we were in need of a massage. After reading the reviews here I called and made an appointment. The building is not what we expected, but after receiving texts with photos of the building, entrance, and how to call up it was easy to find.
Chrisele and Yuli took great care of us and we left feeling amazing. They are not afraid to dig in again get the knots out. Chrisele got a workout in trying to get the knots out of my wife's shoulder.
Shan Qiao
Best massage I have had in a long time! They are pros!
Daisy Tellez
BEST MASSAGE I’VE HAD. My husband & I went in for a deep tissue couple massage + cupping. They massaged our entire body with oil & actually went DEEP for deep tissue. We absolutely loved the services & will be back again. Prices are great compared to other places in Honolulu. Christie made us feel welcomed & relaxed! If you’re looking for a massage this is the place to go!
Rachel Madsen
My husband and I got a couples Massage from Julie and Lucy. I'm four months pregnant and they were able to accommodate a prenatal massage. My shoulders were really tight and she was able to loosen them up. Soooo relaxing!!!!
Chenyu Wang
Yuli and Jolie did a wonderful job! They are very skilled and caring. My boyfriend and I enjoyed the whole experience. Highly recommend!!!
nick aris
This place is wonderful, the therapists do an amazing job every time. Thankyou Smile Massage & Spa, for making me feel better every time. Mahalo Christie and Yulie, you are the best!!
Ian Milanak
Best massage I have ever had. Completely relieved lower back and neck pain. The entrance seemed suspicious as it’s in an apartment complex but it’s actually a business complex. This business would be completely booked up every hour they had available if in a better location.
Erica Sherwood
Yuli was absolutely amazing! It was my first professional massage and she made me feel so comfortable. Best massage ever! 10/10 would recommend visiting Yuli!
Vincent Nguyen
I walked to the building worried about the quality, but my siblings and I exited the elevator, the owner greeted us with open arms and a big smile "you came!". The masseuse that took care of me and my brother was Yomi and Christie. They were strong, yet gentle as well as funny and a bit charming. The music is very peaceful and the window view is a gorgeous sunset overlooking the ocean. It was my first massage and I enjoyed it, my brother said that he gets deep tissue massages once a month and for what we paid for ($56+tip), this is as good as a $200 massage, if not better. If you are ever in Waikiki, definitely give this place a try.
Kirithigaa K
Really good massage by Lily! Will definitely come again
Diana Kilguss
I came here for the first time today for a deep tissue massage and boy did they deliver. I rarely find a masseuse that can keep up consistently deep enough pressure to work out my knots, but Smile Massage delivered just that. They offer a complimentary lip treatment which does make your lips feel smooth but I was not told before hand it tints your lips pink from the cherry. Not that big a deal as it does fade pretty quickly but something for people to know before agreeing to the lip treatment. She said there is a non-tinted version they use on men so you could always ask for that one if you don't want the tint. It's not the fanciest atmosphere, but I care far more about the actual massage. Another note is that I was told they prefer texting to schedule appointments rather than calling. I will be back.
Everest Moll (everestmo)
Got a couples massage—Amazing experience, Julie and CC were so kind and friendly! They made us feel so comfortable.
Ivy
We had Christy and May for a couples massage on Valentine's day, Christy did an amazing deep tissue for my husband with plenty of attention to his sore muscle areas and joints. May gave me a wonderful swedish massage that had me melting into the table and thoroughly relaxed me. She found knots I didn't know I had and worked on them until I felt my muscles loosen and relax. Definitely a great experience! We will be coming back!
Jenna Bishop
I was skeptical at first as the outside of the building is an apartment building and was locked so we had to call to enter; however, the massage was incredible. I left feeling very relaxed. She knew exactly where I was having pain without saying anything and focused on those areas.
Stephen Lin
Very great! I got a long needed massage that will definitely better my health in the long run; I also got some helpful tips for the future to relax my muscles to reduce any health risks.
Larry Mac (Lt. Dan)
Chinese style massage very well. Highly recommended
Meredith Meier
Christina and Luli took SUCH good care of my friend and I after a long day of travel. We were both so tight from long flights, and our pain was gone the next day after they took care of us. Highly recommend !
Jeraldy Urena
We got a couple massage ! It has been the best massage of my life! Place was really clean. I love how loving they were. I recommend this place! Best massage
LAYNE TANAKA
I've been going there for a number of years and it's so helpful in keeping me in shape and releaving all of that ails me. Christie is great in taking away those pains.
Ashley Botello
I love this place! It's the only place my husband and I like to go for a couples massage. Staff is very welcoming and have great communication with you during the massage to assure that you are getting the massage you want!
phoebe kimera
The best deep tissue massage I’ve ever gotten! The technique was so unique and so effective- I’ve never gotten a massage like this! Very friendly people they are. Loved it!
Olivia Arner
Julie and Christie were so sweet. absolutely loved going and getting a massage there. i highly recommend!
Christina Cordray
Best massage ever :) Christie/Kristy is so funny and a very skilled masseuse. She worked out a lot of knots!
Katherina Bui
I came here with my friends. My massage was great! My massage came from the owner. Since there were 2 of us, to start, she gave us a deal if we used the couple's room. When we added another person, she had to add another room, but she kept the discount price. I definitely will be back.
Bryan Howard
Wow excellent massage! I have been around the Earth 3 times and have had thousands of massages from hundreds of places (from Bangkok to Marrakesh). But YULI & CHRISELE are the #1 best of the best! Mahalo/Arigato
Simon Huang

Yanglin Ye
I had gotten the happily ever after package deal and I can honestly say 100% recommended especially if you need to relax and focus on your self! I had Christie do my massage and facial and I can honestly feel like a whole new person. After everything we had got tea with a delicious cookie afterwards.
I thank this wonderful staff for amazing experience!
Beelieve Hawaii
Wow! My experience at this clean, calming spa was wonderful. I was treated by a friend so I brought along another friend. She was also very pleased with her massage. Sami worked on me and her pressure/style was great for my athletic body. I plan to be a loyal client moving forward.
Katarina R.
Highly recommend! It’s tough to find a good masseuse, but I love to get them with Julie. They really have excellent customer service and a safe space due to Covid.
Lisa S
For an early Valentine's Day present for my husband and I, we did the 60 min couple's massage. Lily and Ally were both great. Everyone was super nice. Communication and directions on how to get there was clear. I wish I had set it up for 90 min 🙂 We would definitely go back …
Noah Halter
They were very kind and respectful. Excellent service. Would recommend to anyone who’s staying in Honolulu.
Nicholas Scott
Wonderful massage! Personable masseuse with exceptional strength. Wish I lived here to go often 🔥 …
John Kang
Great place, me and my wife were able to get an appointment within an hour, the lady was very nice on the phone, even gave us very detailed instructions for the parking. Deep tissue message was very relaxing, but it can be painful for those who never had it. We had yuli and nana, both were fantastic. If you are looking for a great message at a reasonable price, this is the place to go.
hanan ingel
Totally worth the 15 minutes chill walk from the center of Waikiki...
Best massage I got lately !
Sami was excellent 👌 …
Grace Kromrey
The best massage me and my husband have ever experienced in our entire lives. Christle and Yuli are amazing! Lots of fun and very thourgh not to mention knowledgable. They take their time and make you feel very comfortable.
Tamyra Bivings
Great place very relaxing, one of the best massages I’ve had!
Nicole Velasco
I've had a couples massage and an individual massage by Yaya and I am now a converted loyal returnee. The combination of deep tissue and Thai massage is epic, and you even get your neck adjusted at the end of the massage. Strength and pressure is amazing and I appreciated her attentiveness to ensuring it was just right. Though business hours are ample, make an appointment to ensure you have access to the parking pass for the building.
I will be seeing Yaya again very soon!!
Chelesea Habersham
My husband and I received An amazing couples massage here with a Spectacular View. My husband keeps saying this is the best massage he's ever had. You will not be disappointed. Highly recommend!

V Foos
They literally saved my vacation! My TMJ jaw joint disease has ramped up my neck tension to the point the pain was affecting my ability to function, despite pulling all my usual tricks. They were able to get me an appointment and in 30 mins I went from like 8/10 pain to 3/10. Excellent strong deep tissue massage, amazingly soothing hot stones, super kind and friendly staff. I felt so much better after I could cry from relief! 10/10. And like others said, don't let the potentially unusual apt as a spa thing throw you off or you'll be sorry to miss out haha (they also send incredibly specific and super helpful instructions for how to find them.)
Matt W
Excellent massage. I would highly recommend.
James Coldwell
Great deep tissue available if you ask for Christy. Fun friendly service.
Zhuping Ye
The room environment is clean and the massage technique is very skilled. Christie is very enthusiastic and the communication is very pleasant. I warmly recommend that everyone who likes massage must go to this shop to experience it. I will definitely come again if I have the opportunity.

Awesome CBD message with my husband! Christine is the best! Very professional massage, the acupoints and meridians are very accurate!
