We booked a "couples" massage as a family day and were really excited to try hot stone therapy. We had to call to book since it wasn't letting us online and we were told we had to book many weeks out to both have hot stone, after a lot of back and forth we settled on one receiving hot stone and one regular massage so we could book sooner. Even at that, openings were very minimal and we had to work our schedules around it. We were not warmly greeted upon arrival and provided cheap polyester robes. Our locker stopped working making us need to go back out to rescue our belongings. After the massage we asked each other how the hot stone was (since in the midst of the silence we both thought somehow the other had been assigned the hot stone masseuse) and realized NEITHER of us had received it. Upon bringing it up at the. front we were offered $4 off our $420 appointment. No replacement offered for the service we never received. The massage itself was fine, but masseuse was sick and coughing. The level of service here and the fact that we never got what we booked was a huge disappointment and frankly this establishment isn't even close to living up to the hefty price tag they charge. Never again.

I had sent pictures of the style of nail I wanted and she was able to recommend an artist that was known in the salon for being the best at it (in this case, it was Anna for gel forms)! Once I arrived, I was immediately greeted by staff who provided comfy slippers and hung up my jacket while I looked at nail polish colors! Anna was so patient and helped me ensure i got the exact nails I wanted :) They also give you a great hand massage at the end which was fantastic!

TL:DR: - I got the best gel manicure from this place in my…read moreentire life - Staff changing the appointment time five times, including while I was heading over to the spa, was a major turnoff In June, I bought a Groupon for a gel manicure from Ageless Spa & Boutique. I couldn't tell you when I last got a manicure. It has been years. I typically do my own nails every Sunday because I find it relaxing and therapeutic. It's also a huge savings. I decided to splurge. I bought the Groupon and called in late June to book an appointment. I got a woman on the other end. I asked if I could get an appointment after July 1st. I got July 5th at noon, which was a Friday. I was okay with the time, as I had a Blue Bombers game at night. She assumed that I was local by asking for my 204 phone number for the appointment. Nope. I'm 416. I got a call on Tuesday, July 2, from a man at this place. He asked whether I could do 11:45 am. I was fine with the change. I wanted an earlier time anyway. I got a call from a woman from this spa almost two hours later. She asked whether someone had called me to change my time to an earlier one. Yes, but don't you guys communicate with each other? Shouldn't this change be on your end and noted in your system rather than interrupting me driving through a downpour in which I can barely hear you? Weird. On Thursday, I got another call from the same woman. She wanted to bump up the time to 11:30 am. I was okay with it. I was extremely accommodating. On Friday, I was getting ready to leave for my appointment, which takes thirty minutes to get to from where I was staying. She called me while I was away from my phone to ask if I can come earlier. I didn't respond, as I had to head out the door. While I was driving, roughly eighteen minutes away from the spa, she called me, asking if I could come in early. I had had it. I asked her why there were so many time changes. She couldn't respond. I let her know that my appointment time has changed multiple times and I haven't even had anything done to my nails. I let her know that my time of arrival was exactly at 11:30 am and that her short notice was not enough time for me to magically whisk myself over to the spa. I needed far more notice than less than an hour before my appointment. Sheesh! She may think that she was being helpful by saying that she's free earlier. She wasn't. It was a huge drag to get almost a daily time change the week of my appointment. I arrived at the spa. There is parking behind the building. There is a single spot for an Ageless Spa customer. I backed intoit. There is a backdoor from the parking lot. I couldn't go through it. It was locked. I went around to the front. It's a two-floor building with a basement. This spa is straight ahead on the main floor. The woman who had called me was waiting for me at the door. She was efficient. This Groupon did not include taxes, so I paid for them right off the bat. I then sat down at one of the manicure stations. I got to select the colour of my gel manicure. I chose wisteria haze, which was a pretty lavender colour. She prepped my nails. I then had to wash my hands in the washroom and return to the manicure area. She then diligently and carefully went through painting my nails and curing them. I felt relaxed and happy. I got a mini massage at the end with lavender oil. It was heavenly. She was great. I loved my nails and let her know that she did a wonderful job. I just wished that she didn't have this weirdness with moving up my appointment time. Otherwise, this place would have got a perfect rating from me. This gel manicure was the best one that I ever had. It didn't chip. I normally take it off after three weeks. I let things run their course naturally and finally removed the gel polish after six weeks. I would definitely return to get another gel manicure from this place. The quality and shine are amazing. It's the multiple time changes to my appointment that irked me. (322)

Leah, the owner/operator exudes positive energy with her warm welcome and bright and genuine smile. She and their facial technician, Jean really know their stuff and walk you through each step.

This was so delightful that I am not waiting "until I have some time" I have already booked Follow ups with both. I am not made of money and rarely spend time or money on myself but this was so worth it I wish I had not waited so long to treat myself. Thank you ladies.

The body polish, with the hot towels was SOOOO relaxing. I nearly fell asleep. I felt so spoiled and amazing after I was done.
