The massage I received from Amy on August 15, 2026 was the first real relief I've felt since a…read moreshoulder injury in March that eventually developed into a very painful frozen shoulder. Amy is a true master of her craft. She really knows what she's doing. The pressure and techniques she used made a significant difference in my shoulder, and I left feeling better than I have in months. I'm not sure why I waited so long to get a massage. Part of it was fear of the unknown and, honestly, concern about the cost. But my experience with Amy at Melrose Spa was wonderful--and surprisingly affordable, especially in a time when everything costs more. I'm so glad I finally made the appointment. I will definitely be returning to Amy at Melrose Spa for follow-up massage care. I highly recommend her!

NAH! We live 6mins away from this place and wanted to get a massage after a week long trip. Called…read moreand was quoted a diff price for a couple massage. I dont understand the inconsistent pricing they give you, why cant u guys give the pricing right? And YES THEY DO DEMAND FOR A TIP, in a weird and unprofessional way. Please go somewhere else. The massage we got was just MEH. We are long time customers in Vila Massage in Oceanside and was just too tired to drive 15 more mins, wish we stayed in Vila Massage. So yup, I dont recommend this place.

This is a darling day spa in the heart of downtown Carlsbad. When I first walked by I didn't know…read morethey did skincare & waxing; I thought it was just a cute boutique...when some coworkers surprised me with a gift card, I was so excited! I booked a bikini wax and did not state a preference for the technician. Riley ended up doing my Brazilian and she was excellent! She talked to me throughout to distract me from the pain, but honestly it was not that painful. I was surprised that my skin was not super red afterward. She offered me a rosewater wipe to use prior the waxing and the treatment room was clean. She did a thorough job and used an oil by the brand Fur to finish, and I decided to purchase the travel rollerball, which totally helped eliminate any ingrown hairs or red bumps that were trying to come out. I kept using the rollerball for weeks after, and no ingrowns! I shopped around the boutique after my treatment and was astounded at the reasonable prices on the super cute clothes, jewelry, and other accessories and fun things in the shop. I left with a dress, a couple cute tops, a bracelet and earrings by Scout (love that brand), and a travel candle, plus the Fur rollerball. I believe the Brazilian bikini wax was $65, and I left a nice tip and walked away with fun new stuff without spending a ton over my gift card amount of $115. Side note--the toilet would not flush when I used their restroom, and let them know, so they shut it down for customer use while I was there. I think it's an older building and perhaps sensitive plumbing. This did not affect my experience in any way. Overall I recommend Riley and this awesome little boutique if you live near the Carlsbad area or are visiting!

It seems odd to have to give a poor rating to a business whose services I've never received, but…read morethat's actually WHY I'm giving the Vanity Chest a single star. I wish I could give it zero stars. I called Felisa to schedule a little waxing. Nose and ears needed tending before a business trip and sales meeting. I called her at noon to see if she was available the same afternoon. She said she could fit me in at 3:30. I drove 30 minutes and arrived 5 minutes early. The door to Felisa's room was locked, so I waited a couple of minutes. 3:00 o'clock rolled around and the door was still locked. I sent another text to Felisa to let her know I was there waiting. She opened her door and asked "Are you here for waxing?" I said yes and she said "I'm Felisa." And then she closed her door again. I presumed she might be finishing with a previous client. She left me sitting in the hallway for 20 minutes, not once telling me I would be taken care of soon or apologizing for the delay. I sent Felisa a final text at 3:50 letting her know I was leaving and got no response. Basically, I wasted and hour of my time driving to and from Felisa's studio to be ignored. I consider her behavior unprofessional and inconsiderate, especially considering she had sent me a message telling me if I was more than 15 minutes late, I'd have to reschedule.
