question Recommendations for a local
Hi all!
I’m from the mainland, but my best friend was born and raised in Oahu. She has a birthday coming up and I would love to get her a gift card for a spa treatment or massage… something along those lines. I’ve done some research but I haven’t landed on somewhere that isn’t overly touristy. I was wondering if I could source some ideas from you! Ideally around the Aiea area, or Ala Moana would work too :) thank you so much!
