My favorite nail salon in the South Bay! They have consistent service and lots of options for services. I've been going here for over a decade. And Megan and Gretchen are the best. If I ever have any issues, they do whatever they can to improve the experience. The chairs are comfy and the salon is always clean. read more

I love the staff and services here. I mostly like that it doesn't have that toxic smell. It seems the staff is treated well here which is also important to me. read more

They have naicestaff, very clean and great selection. I always get consistent service. There isn't a hard sell on upgrades either.

Don't go here. The lobby legitimately wreaked of body odor on a level I didn't know was possible in a business. Then Lilly was rude, she laughed at me in a really inappropriate and demeaning way. When I simply didn't want any extra services, then was blatantly talking crap in her language. read more

So happy! the text did a great job very pleased and because Joel full Nail doesn't take too long that was great too in and out read more

Terrible experience. I called after the session and asked for a manager to phone me back...three weeks and waiting. Well done, Sand Spa.

No better place to get your nails done, relax, and feel taken care of in Hermosa. The scheduling process online is so easy, great vibes when you enter, and the quality of the services is worth the price. I love the Healthy Sole with Sandy, she is a miracle worker! read more

I used to come to sand spa often but haven't in almost a year. I have a trip coming up so I decided to stop in. Not sure if it's because I came on a Tuesday afternoon when it was slow or what but I asked for baby pink French tips on clear dip powder and truly they are the worst nails I have ever received. If we can not do a simple French tip in 2024 what are we doing. It should not be up to the customer to speak up when their nails look this bad. $75+tip for this quality is a bummer. Worst part is I can't even get the color off with my acetone at home so I am stuck with these until someone somewhere else can get me in to fix them. Would also like to add when I booked appointment online, it was booked with nickie- who I remember being very talented but I was not actually put with her. read more

I just had an amazing facial. The best I've had in a LONG time. This woman knows what she is doing. Go see Kasia, she is SO good. Professional, thorough, and so relaxing. You can tell she has a lot of experience I've been getting facials for half my life. Her service and skill remind of facials I used to get at Murad Spa. I got the HydraFacial with derma-plane. My skin feels SO CLEAN! Well worth it! read more

Since my daughters and I found this place for nails we will never go anywhere else. They don't try to upsell, they have new polish that last for a few weeks. They are truly skilled. The spa is such a peaceful place that I always want to hang and get the neck massage as well. I also will now only go here for my massages. Everyone needs to try Adam out. Very professional and skilled. He seems like he might have been a physical therapist. I have fibromyalgia and he knows just the right amount of pressure to use to give relief and to not trigger more pain. Thank you! read more

Ok second massage second location I did the beach body massage! I don't know which was better this or the hot stone I think maybe this but they both are amazing. Suri was fantastic, sweet and just the right amount of pressure and I am already figuring out when I can book again with her. Thanks to the Owners for staffing such great people and thanks Sabrina who was at the front desk and answered my questions!! read more

This is my second time here and once again they did not disappoint. The first tome I came I got a gel manicure and a regular pedicure. The gel lasted for 3 weeks and the pedicure for 4 weeks. I came back to have my nails done for an event and they turned out better than I could have imagined. I am obsessed! This place is clean and the staff are extremely friendly. When you make an appointment they honor that time, which is huge. I'm so happy I found this place and will continue to get my manicures and pedicures done here! read more

This is my go to nail salon in Hermosa! Everyone is so nice and welcoming. My nails always look great and I always look forward to coming here for a little self-care time. Also, the foot massages are amazing! read more

I want to love this nail salon, but unfortunately it has been hit or miss. Everyone is always very nice, but quality not consistent. Very disappointing! My last gel mani started chipping 3 days after and now a week out my nails look terrible. Also some of the techs do not take time to pay attention to detail. Teach your techs to take pride in their work and Provide great quality each time! Very disappointing with the amount I paid. You will lose customers if you don't require your staff to pay attention to detail and not just rush through. read more

Do not come here for nail art and be aware that this business saves customers credit card information that their front desk assistants have access to charge as wanted. Thought I would do something fun for my engagement nails the design was beyond botched I walked out and called my fiancé so upset that I just paid so much to have my nails look awful for our engagement photos. He told me to go back in and say something so I did. I was told it was to late for them to fix them but that I could come back the next day.... Super inconvenient but wanted my nails to look good for the engagement photos. Went back got them fixed with just a single color. I got gel with designs which cost me $80 when I went back the next day to get them fixed I found a navy color that I loved but it was powder I asked the lady at the front desk if there was a difference she said no (the girl at the front was aware this was getting fixed for free as discussed with her and the owner). Took another hour of my time to finish, tipped the nail artist and went on my way. A few days pass and I see another charge on my credit card for $85. I call immediately the same front desk girl picked up the phone and she says I remember you, you ran away without paying the other day the powder dip is more than the service you paid for. I corrected her and asked if the powder was $85 more than the $80 I already paid she said well no powder is $85 so I'm like this is a $5 but you also waisted my time, I had to drive back over, pay for parking, and tip the nail tech again...... and I asked you if there was a difference. I'm absolutely appalled because the card they charged was one that I had used here over a year ago... this business is wrongfully storing customer credit card information and front desk assistants have access to these accounts..... wreck-less business practices. I asked to speak to the owner about the credit card storage information I barely got an apology.... I had to beg to have my credit card information removed from their system if you have been here and used a card make sure to call and have it removed off their files. read more

I hate to leave a bad review but I have never been more disappointed in a nail salon. When I came in I noticed it was pretty dirty. The chairs that you sit in while they do your nails were stained with dirt and the place overall was not very clean. The nail tech talked me out of gel x (which I've been getting for 2 years elsewhere) and told me I should do dip with gel instead. Besides the fact that she dipped my fingers in the same container of powder that everyone else's had been in (which I know is comment but it's not supposed to be done as it's unsanitary) my nails ended up chipping and breaking 2 days later. read more

Overall not a horrible experience- probably because it was a girls day with my two best friends! Their polish is very unorganized. I asked for dip powder, so chose a color off of the dip rack. As my service begins, they told me it's an additional $7 for my color due to it being gel, not dip. On top of that, I said I wanted the classic pedi. Then they asked if I wanted my calluses removed, and usually with any pedicure they do a light buff treatment around your heel so I thought nothing of it. After it was complete, they said they were charging me an extra $10 for it. Mind you- I have very soft feet as it is. Not much to remove. (I'll spare you the feet pics- after all nothing in life is free! LOL). Just think communication needs to be more clear. Stop trying to upsell after people clearly state which service they want. read more

Sand Spa Hermosa Beach - Me and boys - Massage Near Me - Hermosa Beach, California

I almost wrote this before but thought hey..maybe she was having a bad day I'll give another chance. The person with long braids who works at the front desk is so rude. I tried to give this place a second chance but her negative nelly rude customer service is not a place I will do business. Go to Bliss the staff so friendly and nice. They even offer postal service employees a cold drink when they walk by! They care about their customers and the community! Sand and Spa do better! First impressions are everything. And in this case 2nd and 3rd impressions. Terrible front desk customer service. read more

First off I had no issues with the service from my nail technician aside from not clearly communicating costs of the services in detail. I tried several times to be sure and clarify what I was spending. Callus removal is extra 10$! Gel or dip are both extra costs on top of the packages! Chrome that takes 5 seconds is an extra 15$! This was my second time back after spending nearly 300$ the first time on a dip mani and gel pedi. I tried to be very careful with my package selection so that I could know exactly what I was spending this time! Not knowing that dip is an added 23$ and gel an added 39$ on top of the package cost! Clearly if money is of no object then this is the place for you! I however like to treat myself biweekly to a mani pedi and I'm not down for 600$ a month to do so! If you get a package ask what the extra costs are at the front desk! I left spending 300$ once again. read more

BE AWARE that a gel polish change (no cutting, shaping, scrubbing, lotion, massage, or foot bath) is $40!!!!!!! So insane to charge that for JUST polish (my nails were naked and filed before so no prep needed). Online it's advertised as $15 for a regular polish change and I expected maybe $5-$10 dollar increase. I was told the $25 up-charge is for the gel... I felt robbed. I wasn't given a refund, discount, or even offered a discount on any future services when I expressed my concerns and dissatisfaction. I told them it was insane and that customers would probably appreciate some price transparency if they listed it on their booking website. I called other salons of the same prestige in the area and they are all $10-20 cheaper. The nails look fine, but not for that cost. Totally unfair. read more

I have a lot of stress and some serious back issues as a result. I came in on a whim and got a 80 minute massage with Adam that helped me so much! He really worked at breaking up the knots in my butt, lower back & legs using pressure points and deep tissue which loosened me up enough so that i could really move better and had relief right away. We have 3-4 more sessions to get me in good shape, but what a great start. Thanks Adam!! read more

I liked this place but didn't love it. The polish choices for a regular mani/pedi were not great. Many of the bottles were practically finished so it was slim pickens. The mani and pedi itself were fine I see some areas on my nails (like the sides) that I would say aren't perfect but it's ok. read more

She created this beautiful soothing atmosphere where I felt I could really un wind from the stresses of the holiday. Highly recommend her! I left feeling glowing and above all confident!

They used to be the BEST place to get nails done in Hermosa. But lately the chairs have been so dirty, the bowls for pedicures are clogged, and just overall isn't as nice of an experience. The nail ladies are very friendly and do a good job. But they just raised the prices despite it getting dirtier each time I visit. So I'm hoping that the price increase means they will be able to fix the cleanliness. If they don't shape up after the price increase I will have to find a new nail salon. read more

I've been coming here for a couple of years and it's my favorite place to get my nails done. It's bright and clean, has comfy chairs (though no massage chairs, which I do miss sometimes) and a good selection of colors. A classic mani is $25 and classic pedi is $30. Every technician I've had has done a great job. They also have rooms in the back for massages and wax. read more

Not worth it. I have been seeking a local spot for HydraFacial and was eager for Sand Spa to open here in Hermosa. I have exclusively enjoyed HydraFacial for the last 10+ years (they should be the same everywhere since it uses a machine) and wanted to find something closer than Alchemie and Trilogy. My first HydraFacial here was disappointing and ineffective. The experience was also subpar - it was just what you would expect getting a facial in a nail salon. The woman was polite but not very good and I didn't see the immediate glow I normally see. I figured they had just opened so maybe there is a learning curve and they will clean up the experience so its not so cheap feeling considering they charge more for HydraFacial than the other spas I frequent. (to be clear, you are in a closet with a curtain without airflow). I booked a second HydraFacial but unfortunately tested positive for Covid I called the day before to cancel and was told I would not be charged - and yet the next day I was charged for the entire appointment for a "no show" (which is frustrating because its outrageously expensive and I was being responsible and not getting others ill). I love Hermosa and want to support our local businesses so badly so I let it pass... My third visit, today, was by far the worst. I booked an 80 minute Diamond Pro Go HydraFacial for $325. This service is advertised in part as: "Our holy grail facial service that includes our most targeted and powerful booster, ReGen GF to firm & restore skin as well as boost collagen and elastin production. Our Diamond Pro service Includes all the bells and whistles ... a face massage as well as arm/hand/neck & shoulder massage. Includes 15-30% Glysal Peel. I received none of the above. First, I arrived a few minutes early for my 12:20 appointment. I was on the bed ready to go at 12:20 and my esthetician entered around 12:25. My appointment finished at 1:30. That is 65 minutes, not 80. I was ready to be done however, because it just was not enjoyable. When she placed the serum on my face she then left the room for 5+ minutes to mix the mask. she then returned to put the mask upon my face, which in doing so dripped a lot of it on my hair. she then placed a light dome over my face and then left the room for 20 minutes. There was no "arm/hand/neck & shoulder massage" or anything except I was trapped under a light that was resting upon my shoulder and I could hear people talking loudly outside my closet curtain. She returned removed the mask from my hair to the best of her ability and that was it. To be clear, the women that work at this location are kind. but clearly quality and experience and customer service just don't matter. There is just so much lacking from the experience I sincerely would rather just not even have a service. I wasted $375 on this experience and I hope taking the time to write this out spares you the same. The Mani Pedi experience here is lovely. it is quite expensive but I do find that at least worthy of the price. read more

First time visit. Would not recommend the organic pedicure. They still used the regular nail polish removed (probably by mistake), did not use a hotel towel and set their timer for 4 min (the menu said hot towel and 5 min massage). The chairs are also covered in plastic and was ripped at the seams. I asked to sit on a towel since my leg was getting scratched from the plastic. read more

Have had amazing pedicures from Sand Spa from wonderful technicians. 4 stars is because they are pricey.

Moon is one of the best nail technician. She is a true artist! Very caring and gentle. She is very precise and that is what makes her special! I would really recommend her to anyone who is going there! read more

I do not recommend this place for a facial or a massage because they cut the 50-minute facial to 40 min., the therapist was late to start even though I did not see there any other customers, the customer service was bad. I moved to the area and was looking for a place to get facials and massages regularly nearby. I went to Sand Spa based on good reviews on Yelp. They advertise 50 minute "Shore thing" facial at $89. Well.. I arrived at least 10 minutes early and was placed in a waiting area. It was my first time getting facial there so I had to fill in the intake form. The therapist took a long time to come out, instead of 12:10 - my scheduled time, she came out about 12:20 and took me to the room. There was not much discussion about my facial needs but by the time I undressed and laid down, a couple more minutes passed. The facial itself was okay, mainly mask driven. She washed my face a few times with different product and placed some masks, did extractions just for a few minutes. Most stuff was left untouched. I gave a star for the okay facial. The facial finished at 1:02! I looked at my watch immediately upon the therapist left the room. Wow, when you advertise a 50-min facial, are late, and cut it short because your therapist was late, it is not good. I was very unhappy and expressed that to the receptionist. She was mildly passive-agressive and rude, and tried to convince me that I ALMOST got the full 50 min. My understanding is they do 5-min now so that there is 10 min gap between customers to get dressed/undressed and get out of the room. After my facial finished, it took me a few minutes to get dressed and put my shoes on before I came out. But the receptionist did not want to take any of that time in consideration. There was a promotion so I paid $79 vs. $89 and figured that's why I was treated so badly. I go to get a massage or facial to pamper myself, enjoy my experience and relax, not to argue with the customer care. Terrible customer service. The owner called me later, but because it was reported to her that I ALMOST got the 50 minutes (minus 7), she did not sound very sympathetic, offered me a little discount on my next visit. Thank you, but no thank you. The day was ruined already, money paid, and I will not be returning to this place, not for any discount. The place is overpriced overall, especially considering they provide truncated services vs. your regular 1-hr massage or facials, as other places do. read more

After looking on yelp to find a nail salon in Hermosa, and not seeing anything that really stood out, I decided to give Sand a try. I hoped the negative reviews were just yuppies being overly picky. I'd like to say the receptionist Whitney was very kind and knowledgeable. However, nothing about the rest of the experience was good. I won't even touch on the minimal effort to make the place comfortable yet how unprofessional it is to do nails on top of a pillow on the clients lap with towels on it, if the end product was good I wouldn't have thought twice about it. I went in to get a fill, and I felt like I was being tortured on my right hand. My nail person Kim must be new or inexperienced, while filing down the old nails she cut my skin so badly on three fingers that every time she did anything else it burned so badly I didn't think I would be able to finish and I have a high pain tolerance. I told her it was burning and she didn't do anything about it. If it was that painful to get a fill every time I would never get acrylics done again. Secondly, one of my nails has already chipped and has a weird wavy texture in it. And two others have strange indentations in them like a bubble in the gel polish popped or something. The owner or a manger was at the counter when I went to pay and didn't smile or really acknowledge me besides charging me $44 for a fill. Needless to say, I won't be back. I'm sure there has to be better places in Hermosa or The South Bay. read more

Sand Spa Hermosa Beach - circular ident on middle finger - Massage Near Me - Hermosa Beach, California

The best hydrafacial in town! Aurora was the best. I added the JLo glow for the WIN!!! ......LADIES, this facial is a must. What's great about the hydrafacial is that you can customize it to your needs. Sometimes my skin is dry and needs extra moisturizing and other times I need a little extra and add on a peel. The hydrafacial keeps the appearance of my pores small, smooth and skin glowing! The front desk is always attentive to my needs. After my facial, I usually head over to Nikki for my manicure and Linda for a pedicure. This was a perfect way to start my week!!! Polish by SandSpa for the WINNN! read more

I didn't feel extremely confident in their Covid guidelines. read more
