Everything A Spa Should Be

by Vespertinas at Citysearch

I got a massage there a few months ago and I really appreciate that Spa on The Avenue made an effort to keep the atmosphere the way you'd want a spa to be. The waiting room was nicely decorated with just the right amount of light, there was tea and light music, and it was very quiet. My massage therapist was very friendly and I could tell that if I wanted her to chat, she would have been pleasant but I chose to have a quiet massage and she indulged me perfectly.

I felt relaxed as I should have when I left but that's not to be taken for granted because NOT every spa manages to accomplish that. You wouldn't believe what some of these places do: they don't honor the kind of massage you want, they discuss payment immediately after the massage, the rooms are uncomfortable.... I mean the list of things that can go WRONG is innumerable so it's nice to note that this one got everything RIGHT!

By the way, I came in on a weekend morning with no appointment and they took me right away! Reception was excellent.

• Pros: they know what a spa atmosphere should be
• Cons: nothing!

best in the hair biz

I've been a client of Spa in the Valley/Spa on the Avenue for years. I have had nothing but expert advise and suggestions from all the staff. I have visited the hair department and have seen many stylists including Maria, Stephanie, Kathleen, Kathryn, Kim and Angel. All gave expert consultations with suggestions on how to keep my new 'do looking great, and how to style at home.

The facials and massages are to die for. Again, all therapists were extremely professional and delivered a superb service. Barb, Cindy, Deva, Cheryl and Scott are highly recommended.

The nail department is beautiful and spacious. They keep their clients in mind when using the Zoya brand - it's Formaldehyde free. I was also pleased to see that Zoya provided so many color choices.

The front desk staff has also been very helpful in helping me with everything from scheduling appointments to inviting me back to experience one of thir signature services.

Spa in the Valley and Spa on the Avenue get an A+ in my book.

Try them out!!

• Pros: beautiful location, expert service

I had a wonderful experience at the Spa on the Avenue. I've had several services done from each department and the staff was very professional and i couldn't of asked for more except to never leave. I refer all my friends and family. I've been going there for years.Debbie has come along way from when she just started out in the biz years ago. It's a very busy environment, but at the same time you can relax. I've been to several different stylist but Rebecca is the best. She is very educated and really listen and cares. She has squeezed me in many times. She definitly takes care of her clients!! She's awesome at color and cutting. I love Spa on the Avenue!

• Pros: rebecca's there and she's great
• Cons: front desk needs some girls that actually knows whats going on
