About Mike: Aloha, I’m one of the Mo’i (owners) and the CEO of our spa, founded by my parents, Steve and Cathy. My passion lies in operating a morally and ethically superior business, focused on its ‘ohana (employees), who allow us to offer exceptional service to every guest who visits our little piece of Hawaii.

At our spa, we take pride in providing our guests with exceptional experiences, offering a wide range of high-quality treatments, including massage therapy, couples’ experiences, and esthetics services (skin care and facials), all in a unique and relaxing Hawaiian atmosphere.

The Spirit of Aloha Commitment (similar to a mission statement):

• To provide an awesome work experience for our ‘ohana.
• To provide an exceptional Hawaiian spa experience for our guests.
• To spread the Spirit of Aloha to everyone.

As CEO, I hold full responsibility for the spa’s operations. My priority is to continually enhance the experience for our ‘ohana and guests, fulfilling our Spirit of Aloha Commitment. The role of a CEO is multifaceted and demanding. My responsibility spans strategic planning, financial management, and operational oversight. I take immense pride in leading a team that upholds our values and consistently delivers exceptional services. My focus remains on enhancing our work environment and guest experience, thus fulfilling our Spirit of Aloha Commitment.

On a personal level, I have an amazing family—my wife, Diana, our teenagers, Myah and Aisha, aged 18 and 16 respectively, and our youngest, Victoria, just 18 months old. My fervor for martial arts is also a significant part of my life, and as a perfectionist, I adhere to elevated standards in everything I do. Driven by an unwavering commitment to righteousness and an inexhaustible curiosity, I strive to broaden my understanding of the world. Outside of work, you can often find me engaged in training, exploring nature trails, or acquiring new knowledge.

Thank you very much for visiting us, and we look forward to sharing the Spirit of Aloha with you as you indulge in a truly exceptional spa experience.

About Steve and Cathy: We are the founders of the Hawaiian Experience Spa. Our journey into the world of wellness and relaxation began in 2006 when Steve became a massage therapist with the intention of volunteering his time to help others. Experiencing the remarkable benefits of massage therapy firsthand, Steve was inspired to share this healing power with others, igniting a passion that would change our lives forever.

Soon after Steve received his massage license, we embarked on a transformative trip to Hawaii. Immersed in the aloha spirit and the rich culture of the islands, we studied the art of Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage together. This experience was so profound that we knew we had to bring the essence of Hawaii back to Arizona. Thus, the concept of the Hawaiian Experience Spa was born in 2007—a sanctuary where the spirit of aloha thrives.

While we once played active roles in the daily management of our spas, our responsibilities have evolved over time. Today, we are retired but still serve in supportive and advisory capacities, particularly focusing on maintaining the authenticity of our Hawaii-based business as residents of Hawaii ourselves. We are dedicated to ensuring that the unique Hawaiian atmosphere and genuine aloha spirit continue to be the hallmark of our spas.

Our journey has been enriched by the transformative power of massage therapy and the profound impact of the aloha spirit. We are committed to maintaining the haven of relaxation and rejuvenation at the Hawaiian Experience Spa, which we founded in 2007, where guests can truly experience the essence of Hawaiian hospitality and well-being. Though we now take on advisory roles, with our son and daughter, Mike and Gen, at the helm, our dedication to spreading the spirit of aloha remains unwavering. Mahalo for your support of the spa and for joining us on this journey to wellness and relaxation.
