My husband and I saw this spa one morning and we walked right in because they were just opening for the day. The interior of the building was very neat, with a cultural inspiration of Puerto Rico! The pricing is very affordable. They started on us right away and were very helpful giving us advice on where to go while we were in town. I would recommend going here for a relaxing and creative environment. read more

Nice little shop with builtin foot spas. Complementary drink too! Ann was fantastic. Great way to pamper yourself!

Wonderful service with beautiful. A pedicure with a couple glasses of sangria. Tons of nail colors to choose from. Felt so good to get a foot massage while looking out on the ocean. The staff was very friendly and my pedicure lasted for weeks! read more

Anam Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

PERFECT. Came here for a mani/pedi for my aunt's wedding this Saturday. I've had horrible experiences at salons at home in Texas, but everything from the staff to the view to the free sangria was perfect! Needless to say I left a very good tip ;) my only complaint is that it's all the way over here in Puerto Rico! read more

Was looking for a place last minute to get waxed in Old San Juan and Anam Spa was super accommodating and got me in immediately. Super friendly staff plus it doubles as a bar! read more

Came here on a Sunday, and they were short on technicians and were pretty busy. No problem, patience is a virtue. My friend got an hour massage and was not disappointed. They charge $1 a minute for massages. Manicures are $17+ Pedicures $25+ Gel Manis $27 I got a foot massage and was excellent! They have a bar and Vietnamese food. This place is a pretty bazaar concept lol. Food, alcohol, massages, waxing, and facials. Free sangria with any service. Pretty rad place. read more

Anam Spa - Pedicure lounge area - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Upon entering the building and requesting a pedicure, I received a free sangria The service was excellent and very professional. One of the best pedicures I've ever had. read more

Was in desperate need of a fill-in as I've been in PR for a couple of weeks and finally found a spa that addressed my needs. Anam spa looks like a bar upon arrival, you actually have to walk in passed it to see the manicure stations. Friendly service, I don't think they do many acrylic nails there because it took a long time HOWEVER my nails came out gorgeous so I'm happy. I took off a star because the place was pretty beaten down looking.. No view of the water from the manicure chairs.. And I didn't get any free sangria as advertised.. Still happy with my nails though! read more

Anam Spa - Light pink ballerina shaped acrylic nail fill in - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

This is my favorite nail spa in Old San Juan. Cynthia is a fantastic technician and their sangría is amazing. Try the paraffin treatments!

This is the only place walking distance from the cruises port and the old San Juan hotels. I had Claudia and she was sweet and paid attention to detail. This is where lots of locals get their nails done. Not an overpriced spa for the tourist like in the hotels. They DO have shellac in hundreds of colors and they do acrylic also. Follow the map and you can get there...its uphill in a row of restaurants and businesses at the very end with some outdoor seating. It took me 7 minutes walking from the old San Juan Sheraton right across from the cruise boats. Same pricing I pay back home. About 25-30$ for mani or a pedi. Everyone speaks English and the owner was very kind and very interested to know I was happy with the work. One prior review said the place was "run down" but it's OLD SAN JUAN! Everything is old! Lol the salon is very clean and the work stations were clean. Such a simple walk on the way back I didn't use the map. read more

Anam Spa - Full set acrylic - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

I loved this place. My friend and I really needed our nails done and we went to some place in the non tourist area of Puerto Rico which was like the worse idea ever our nails looked like total crap. I saw this place and wanted to give it a try despite some of the negative reviews I wanted to find out for myself. This location is in the heart of old San Juan with a beautiful view. Don't go here if you're looking for a day spa that reminds you of one in Beverly Hills because it's not a glamour looking space but it definitely has a beautiful vintage appearance to it. They do offer gel here and they do acrylic as well. The drinks are pretty good as well. read more

Such a gem! Cynthia did an amazing job and the vibe was so chill. I loved the atmosphere and they did an amazing job on the mani and pedi. Also, the foot massage was 5 star. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED After a tiring day walking around San Juan in rain puddles, this was was heaven sent. It is right by the water in centre of down town by the port. Also close to taxi stand so i was able to get to the hotel without walking too much. Enjoyed Sangria while my feet were worked on. Same price as what i pay in California but with no foot massage and no polish drier. read more

Anam Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

While in Puerto Rico I had the opportunity to treat my friends to a spa day! Something they haven't had the chance to enjoy for a while. I searched via Yelp and Anam Spa was the first location that popped up and have the most reviews. I'm all about Yelp reviews when I'm traveling. So here's mine! I loved that I was able to make my reservation on Yelp, as I do not speak much Spanish and wanted to make sure we had an appointment set. The online reservations through Yelp was EASY and FAST! Less than an hour that someone responded. And when we had to adjust our appointment time, they were very accommodating! When we arrive their pedi spa bowls were waiting on them. Though we were still late {my friend had us super lost in Old San Juan} the ladies were so sweet about it. Both of my friends truly enjoyed their pedis, and thank you thank you thank you anam spa for spending extra time on my friends pedi {he's a guy...just saying lol}. They play to make this a route for themselves thanks to the service they received while there. Keep up the great work and awesome service for your customers. read more

Thank the Lord I found Anam! I broke a few nails while exploring Puerto Rico and Claudia, my nail tech, saved the day. I had acrylic nails and she did a refill no problem! It was about an hour and a half long appointment but I was her last client and I did arrive late, yet she waited for me (the traffic in Old San Juan from Isla Verde is no joke; what would normally have been a 20min drive on a week day was an hour drive on a Sunday). You get a free sangria too! I saved it for when I went to grab the Pho from the front of the spa and lemme tell you.. I'm Vietnamese and I hate pho because of how often I would have had it growing up and it was DELICIOUS!!! Just like my mama's cooking. I like to eat my pho with a little more flavor so I asked for more lime and fish sauce but just by itself, it was already a delicious broth. I am so happy to have found this spot that does nails perfectly AND serves authentic, delicious pho. read more

Such a great experience today at Anam. First day open since hurricane Maria and thankfully there was no damage to the salon. Staff was pleasant and professional. Sangria was yummy and my mani and pedi were both great. Will be back for sure!! read more

Anam Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Pedicure was the same price I'd have paid at home, is still holding up five days later (and I've done alot of walking) and Anam is alot nicer looking decor-wise than my place at home. For some reason in addition to being a bar and nail salon, they also serve pho, which smelled good. Only down side? The free sangria was terrible. I regret not just ordering a drink. It would have been perfect to stare out the window at the water while drinking something tropical. read more

This was a stellar little spa that is unassuming but charming! The nail technician, Estephania, was sweet, talented and so fun to chat with! Free sangria with the treatment and they took care to do a great job with nails. read more

After spending too many nights dancing into the wee hours of the morning and walking circles around Old San Juan, our feet were in desperate need of some personal attention. A couple of random internet searches and Anam appeared to us like a beacon in the night (dramatic, I know). $20 bucks for a 20 minute foot massage and a glass of sangria. Whoever thought of this place is a freaking genius! Relaxed in a soothing foot bath while some stranger gave me the best foot massage ever, oils and scrubs included. My girls and I left no longer hobbling along. The staff was nice enough, not overly friendly which worked well for us because we wanted to chat with each other a bit and then not talk at all for a few minutes and just enjoy the moment. Your feet need this, indulge them. They also do regular massages and mani/pedi, etc. read more

Fabulous find! My tootsies were in desperate need of love, and I needed a place in Old San Juan. A quick search on Yelp offered slim picks and -to my utter dismay- it showed that Anam was closed. WHAT!? Imagine my surprise when -strolling down Calle Cristo intent on reminiscing about my childhood visits to el Parque de las Palomas- I found the place was open. Forget the pigeons! I made my way there in a flash. All services priced at $15+ get you a free house drink (in my case, it was an orange and rum punch), which was a huge incentive. Keep in mind -as other reviewers have griped- that this is not the place where you come in quest for a meditative experience. All facial and massage services are done in the same room separated only by curtains. However, if you want a mani-pedi, friendly service and a fun atmosphere this is the place to be. Also, be sure to bring cash. The day I visited the credit card machine was not working, so I had to make a mad dash to an ATM. Though I was told it was temporary, my cousin tells me the system has never worked the times she's visited. read more

It was ok, the place is super busy so couldn't get anything done and they no longer offer free drink upon check in.

I'm only giving this one star bc of the free sangria. Came here for some relaxing therapy, but got the complete opposite. First off, the massage therapist didn't talk to me, didn't ask me what I want from the massage. Got completely no privacy to change, so I was unsure if I was suppose to get undress down to my undies. And the only thing that separated the massage room from the nail salon area was a curtain! Seriously? Definitely not sound proof or light proof. My head was too distracted from the loud noise outside and the bright sun that happened to land right on my eyes. I had some major knots in my back and told the therapist to apply deeper pressure on several occasions and apparently she did not understand at all. read more

Nail salon + bar: how is this not available all over the world? I can't believe I can't do this in New York! The service at the bar and for my nails was wonderful. Everyone was sweet and helpful. My hands and feet came out looking great! For $53 I got a manicure, pedicure, my one free drink and an additional drink. Other Yelpers mention that it's not the most meditative place for a massage, but to have a drink with your mani pedi it is absolutely perfect. It is loud for a salon but quiet for a bar. The doors of the salon open up to a view of the ocean and the mountains, which is absolutely beautiful. There was a birthday party there today - looked like fun! read more

AVOID AT ALL COST. Travellers beware, it may seem like a cool place to stop before you jump on a cruise. Trust me, this is the worst nail service I've ever experienced and it was expensive. I went to Anam on Sunday Nov 18th to have a toenail repaired after someone stepped on my foot and broke my toenail in half. The first nail she applied was so short it looked like a chiclet. I had to ask the nail tech to fix it and this is what she did. My 9 year old could have done a better job. Absolutely unprofessional and clearly not a trained nail technician. Save your money and your stress. Find another location so you won't be disappointed. I ended up paying for my service only to have to go elsewhere to fix the mess she made. When the second spa saw the work that I paid for she told me I should not have paid. read more

Right off the cruise ship and after visiting Parque de Palomas we entered Anam. As my husband ordered a beer i entered the next room to get my nails done. Was pleasantly surprised at the quick service, good conversation in either Spanish or English and beautiful nails by Lom. Afterwards Kelly Renee gave me a fantastic facial. I came here per Yelps suggestion and they were right. read more

We stopped here after a long day of walking (Condado to Old San Juan) and we weren't disappointed. We did not have appointments (they were able to accommodate us immediately) our foot massages were great, the two free drinks were a nice touch, and the view of the ocean was amazing. The staff was also very nice. Four stars only because it was slightly hard to relax. The first 10 minutes of our 20 min massage there were a lot of people just hanging out at the bar accompanied by very loud party music. read more

Cynthia did a fantastic job on my gel French pedicure. The paraffin treatment was such a nice treat & the sangria was an even better touch! Thanks, Anam Spa! read more

Anam Spa - Gel French pedi - Nail Salons Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Perfect for a last minute pedicure on this girls trip. Technicians are the friendliest and sangria comes with any treatment over 15$. Never a bore with great conversation. Color selection is small but decent. They scrubbed my feet and did an excellent massage. My toes have never been softer. It was a fun and entertaining pampering. read more

Anam is an awesome salon. Besides the fact that it's view of the ocean is beautiful and decor is cool and relaxing, they really do a great job of doing your nails. Removed all the cuticles, very precise with color application. I would go back in a heart beat. I only wish they sanitized their instruments a little better. Overall though a great experience. read more

I love the idea of the tiny bar/spa! We had beers while we waited for our turn and I believe you get a free sangria with your service. My pedicure was fine and as someone else mentioned, the person I had was not chatty but that was perfectly fine with me-I was too busy zoning out. Obviously, this concept wouldn't work at a strip mall nail shop, but it worked here. The decor was done in an Asian/Thai style with lots of dark wood and Buddha heads. This is a perfect stop to revive your tired feet after spending an afternoon exploring Old San Juan. read more

A spa AND a lounge. Fantastic sangria to sip while experiencing a great pedi and manicure in an almost magical setting. Great drinks service and friendly manager made it a delightful hour of pleasure. Pamper yourself in old San Juan. You know you deserve it! read more

Things that are awesome about this place: - concept - view - drinking while being pampered - bar is pretty separate from salon so anyone waiting on you can hang out comfortably and wait for you if needed - bartender was really friendly and nice Things that can be improved: - service: i made an appointment weeks before and still had to wait. No one greeted me upon my arrival and once they had my name they just said, "ok" and left it at that. I wasn't sure whether to wait at the bar or stand outside or what, and the girls all returned to intense conversations that I felt bad interrupting. I figured it out but not the kind of service I usually get, even in my divey nail salon at home. My pedicurist made me feel like I was intruding on her girls weekend or something. She was really friendly and talkative to everyone around her (who all seemed to be locals) but gave me one word answers when I tried to engage her in conversation, and she rushed through the pedicure. I don't always like to chit chat either but it felt rude. - Atmosphere is a hacked together, so it' doesn't exactly feel classy or spa-like. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and it was fun to do on vacation. I may stop in again when I'm back in San Juan but now that I've been once, it won't be on my "must-do" list anymore. read more

So, I love a pedicure before a vacation. Getting ready for a cruise and here is a cruise caliber pedicure and manicure at an affordable price. Then, the availability of a full bar to help complete the relaxation experience. You can beat the view of the ocean and wonderful music. Me and my friends found it to be great. And people in your party aren't interested in nail work? Enjoy the bar and outside seating. read more

Review is for massage only. Total waste. I was promised a massage with strong pressure. Dari was inexperienced, and had no clue what he was doing. Too bad. I wanted to like them. No price list. They charged me $60/hr. The 2014 version of Lonely Planet says it's $40/hr. They were charging $17 for manicures. I passed on that. I asked around. The recommendation I got from others is to go to Condado if you want a massage. read more
