My boyfriend and I had a 60 minute couples massage. Probably the best one yet. I think I fell asleep half way thru until I turned around. It was affordable, I think we paid $139 for both. I like how we got a full bottle of champagne and they treated us very well. I will be back next time we're in Manhattan Beach! read more

Went here for my birthday and got a sports massage from Cole and he did a great job. I have a compressed nerve in my calf and he took the time to listen to my issue and he spent a good amount of time working it out. I highly recommend him! Great location and a clean facility! You will not be disappointed! read more

I had a hot stone massage at Sand Spa while I was visiting California and all I can say is wow. My massage therapist was Barbie and the woman has hands of magic! I literally left the place feeling like a weight was lifted from my shoulders. I floated to the car... The staff was friendly, warm and very courteous. I cannot say enough good things about this spa and especially Barbie. Not only was the massage amazing, the price was incredibly reasonable. Don't hesitate to book an appointment here. Whenever I'm in Cali, I will be stopping by Sand Spa for an amazing massage. read more

Another wonderful massage! This is my go to massage spot for deep tissue and it's always been consistently amazing. I usually have achey knots and went in today. Diana was my therapist and she was amazing! I love when therapists explain what they're doing and why they're doing it while giving a massage. Will always come back here :) read more

The Sand Spa is my absolute go to when I'm in need of a massage. All of the massage therapists are consistently good, though I usually see David. David is a master - he applies acupressure and always knows how to work out back, neck or hip kinks. I have seen other massage therapists and I have never had a bad massage. The location is convenient and the ambience warm and inviting. Parking can be a challenge, though there are public lots a few blocks away and metered spaces in front. There are lots of swanky day spas in Manhattan Beach, but no one can beat this price and quality. Go now! read more

Fantastic, relaxing nail spa! Services are reasonably priced and I love the open air space. So many nail salons smell toxic but not Sand Spa. They had the roller doors open so you could feel the ocean breeze. Clean and just lovely. read more

I've been to this spa a handful of times but after only my first visit I was hooked! The front desk staff is super friendly and after explaining over the phone exactly what I like in a massage they pointed me in the direction of Julia, who I absolutely LOVE. The pricing is super affordable, which is good for someone like me who is constantly exercising and has sore/tight muscles. The spa itself is super clean and the music and lighting is always so calming, I've been recommending Sand Spa to all of my friends! read more

I can't say enough good things about this spa, this past week I've been traveling a lot and the plane rides have really gotten to me. I went in yesterday for a sports massage with Jerome and I feel like a whole new person! The ease of the online booking system and the friendly front desk staff were the best start to an even better massage. Jerome was super knowledgeable and even told me a few good stretches that'll help me out the next time I'm traveling a lot and may not have much time to get in. I'll definitely be returning! read more

I did not want my deep tissued massage to end. It was just amazing! Gonzalo was able to address all my problematic areas. The spa was clean and calming. Reception was welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend. read more

One of the cleanest, most professional places I've been to. The massage was great, the service was wonderful and the they have the friendliest staff. Will go again for sure . read more

My husband and I went here for a couples massage. It was such a pleasant and relaxing experience. The facility was Very clean, and the service was extremely friendly and professional. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. We will definitely go again, and I recommend it highly. This is what a spa experience is supposed to be like. No complaints at all. read more

There are so many options for spas in the southbay/west side and LA in general but, Sand Spa is by far the BEST, Affordable, HIGH QUALITY, luxury experience. If you haven't gone, I suggest you stop waiting and go check it out! The illuminating peels, facials & massages are amazing!!! 100 stars!!! Definitely treat yourself, you'll be happy you did. read more

My wife and I came in for a couples massage today with Chase and Julia and we had a GREAT experience. They were both very talented massage therapist - might have been the best massages we've ever received. I'm really happy and thoroughly impressed, you can really tell this place cares about their staff and establishment. Highly recommend. read more

This is a quaint and clean spa! The staff here is friendly and professional. I booked a massage with Robin and I thought I'd try the back scrub...Wow! I can honestly say that was one of the best massages that I ever had! Robin was an experienced massage therapist who only talked quietly when necessary. The scrub was especially nice because it was all natural and left me feeling invigorated. An added treat is that you can buy the body scrubs for everyday use. I highly recommend the massage with the scrub. You will not be disappointed. Parking is limited as in any beach city so arrive early. I will definitely be booking another massage soon! read more

I had a 90 minute massage and it was the best ever. I had Barbie and she was amazing. I added on the scrub for the feet which I have never had before and it was incredible. The best part about the Sand Spa are the owners, Megan and Gretchen. They treat every client like they are the only ones. I overpaid accidentally and I was called right away to let me know and they said they apologize but it was my fault. This is a great find in the South Bay!!! read more

Been coming here for years!! Just gets better and better. Very convenient, clean, personable, professional, and private. Massages are excellent, would recommend to anyone, and will continue to make many appointments. read more

Came by this weekend and saw Carrie for a 90 minute deep tissue. I thoroughly enjoyed my massage she really listened to me and took the time to put me back together. The location is beautiful and super clean. You can tell whoever put this place together really thought through every detail. Add bonus: You can see the beach from the deck! I will 100% be back! Thank you Sand Spa. read more

Got a gift card for my 40th and was able to treat myself to a microdermabrasion & spa facial with Candace. I'd never had microderm before but I have had facials. She was very gentle at extractions, her massage techniques were wonderful, and she obviously took her time and did not rush through the steps. Since the treatment, I can feel such a difference in the texture of the skin on my face and neck, it is so smooth - totally worth it and I will return to her even though I don't have any money left on my gift certificate. Thank you! ;) read more

This place is great! Everyone is always friendly and makes you feel welcome. They just opened up in Hermosa Beach on Pier and it makes parking much easier then the manhattan beach location. If you are looking for a fantastic deep tissue then go and see Robin. She is great and really listens to what you want and gets all those nasty knots out :)! read more

Went here for the first time last week. They accepted a reservation on short notice. The estetician that did the facial was very nice and accommodating. read more

My experience at both Manhattan and Hermosa Beach were absolutely fabulous and super duper relaxing. Not only are the locations amazing and a few steps away from the sand , they also manage to keep that relaxing beach vibe throughout the spa. Liz...thank you for the AWESOME stretching and Eloisa thank you for getting all the knots out of my back after thinking I could do an advanced Pilates class...what a joke!!! Gretchen, thank you for your lovely hospitality and really making me feel welcomed. Sand spa is definitely my new go-to spa! I wish you guys the best SAND SPA ROCKS :))) read more

I called and was able to get a same day appointment. The massage was really good. I really loved the quality of customer service that was provided. This place is one of my new go to massage locations. They listen to what you want and they focus on the areas. I give this place a 5 star! read more

Loved my experience here! Lauren was my therapist and she was amazing. I highly recommend her.

I have had back and neck problems for years. Probably had well over 100 massages in my lifetime. This had to be the best one. Not only was it relaxing and comfortable, but my neck and back actually felt aligned. The staff was friendly and listened to my needs. The spa itself was clean and inviting. I would recommend it over any place here in town and believe me I have been to all of them! read more

I feel so lucky to have found Sand Spa and I have to admit that I feel ridiculous for having wasted my money at Burke Williams all these years. The massages I've received at Sand Spa are thorough, the exact pressure I specify and always leave me feeling like a new woman. I have tried different masseuses and I have been so happy with the massage each time I go. Each masseuse at Sand Spa has focused on my issue areas and methodically worked out the various knots and tension that I carry around as a result of my every day life. While the massages have been amazing, the thing that puts Sand Spa over the top is the customer service. They are always incredibly accommodating, have found ways to squeeze me in and just make the booking process so easy and enjoyable. I always feel like the most important person to them - whether it be on the phone to book the appointment or when I walk in the door for my appointment. They are incredibly attentive to my needs and make me feel so welcome and truly taken care of each time I come in. Thank you Sand Spa, I can't imagine ever going anywhere else after coming here! read more

I had an amazing combination swedish/deep tissue massage with Barbie. We discussed what I wanted her to focus on at the beginning and she did a great job - I feel so much better! I booked my massage same day and everyone I spoke with acted friendly and professional. This place is really cute and beach themed with relatively few frills - you change in the room so no extra amenities. This may be why the price is so much more reasonable than most other places. I had read this in other reviews before I went so knew what to expect when I got there. I was very pleased with my entire experience here and will definitely be back for another massage. read more

Sand Spa is my new go to spot in South Bay. I grew up going to other spas in the area with my mom (mainly for mothers day) and I never really got it. My friend Lauren who lives down the street from Sand Spa made us appointment for Saturday morning, at first I was a little apprehensive but, she promised i'd love it. AND I DID. It was popping in at all the brunch spots, the spa was completely booked and there was Lauren and I sipping our champagne waiting for our 60min swedish massage appointments. My therapist was Carry and she was wonderful. She listened and was very skilled. The whole spa had a relaxing atmosphere and I really enjoyed it. I actually loved it. read more

This was my second time here. The first time I did not have a positive customer service experience and the owner invited me back for another massage for free. This time around I had a wonderful 1 hour Swedish massage, the massage therapist worked on all my trouble areas and showed care and professionalism. They gave me champagne while I waited and really turned around my experience. I would recommend it based on how much Gretchen (the owner) cared!! read more

My husband and I went for a deep tissue couples massage with Denisha and Liz, these ladies were amazing!! We walked out of there feeling great, friendly staff and cute place, we will totally be back!! read more

My Daughter and I were staying at the Sea View Inn down the street and decided to book some spa time. We were both very happy and look forward to going back. read more

This spa is nothing short of AMAZING! I came here for a massage and has the best experience. The entire staff is so pleasant and you can tell they truly care about their clients! Go check this spa out, it's one of a kind! They also have a location in Hermosa that does nails! read more

So happy to have found this place!! We saw the grand opening sign and decided to stop by. Both owners were there, they were very knowledgeable and extremely nice! The decor is super cute and the overall experience was pleasurable! All of the employees I encountered acknowledged us with eye contact and a polite greet. Sincerely a great location and business. I'm hooked! read more

I came to Sand Spa for a massage while visiting from Oregon. I'm so lucky to have stumbled in during the grand opening, the staff was friendly and attentive and I had one of the best massages of my life! Highly recommended! read more

Came here this past weekend and received a great Swedish massage. The staff was super nice and attentive! Atmosphere was very relaxing. As soon as I walked in I felt welcomed and peaceful. Will definitely be coming back! read more

The Sand Spa is a little gem! The facility is very cozy and relaxing. The front desk staff is very welcoming and made sure we were well taken care of. There is great attention to detail throughout the whole experience. I have come in a couple of times for the 60 minute couples massage. I have had a deep tissue massage from Denisha and Darshon. IT WAS INCREDIBLE. Can't wait to be back! read more

I've been to this location before, but back when it was under different management. I didn't realize when I booked the appointment online that there was no place to specify the gender of the massage therapist, so I was a little surprised when I was scheduled with a male (I always request female). They offered to reschedule me, but I decided that was silly. Jerome gave a great massage and went out of his way to make me feel more comfortable. I especially appreciated his gentle work on my neck. read more

I had a great experience at Sand Spa. The receptionist was friendly and attentive and the massage therapist did a great job! A lovely, soothing atmosphere inside the spa, and outside the glorious Pacific. This place is the best. I plan on going monthly. read more

I love Sand Spa Manhattan Beach! Great massage therapists! I've been there 7-8 times and it's always been great. They are very experienced and do an amazing job. I always walk away feeling great! The parking can be a pain on weekends, so make sure to leave yourself plenty of time to find a spot at one of the meters. The offer great specials and promotions too! Highly recommend this place! read more

Sand Spa is amazing, I can't say enough about the staff and wonderful service. Really impressive for being a new business. Check this place out! Ill definitely be a returning customer. read more

Most unfulfilling massage ever. I usually go to Trilogy but my neck and upper back were sore and I needed a last minute massage and they were booked. I booked the Detox Massage at Sand Spa last minute. It's supposed to be a Deep Tissue using hot stones and essential oils according to the website. The massage was basically just being moisturized, the only essential oil used was lavender and the masseuse stopped in between each body part to take literally 3 minutes to mix more oil + lavender. The whole massage was this awkward long drawn out process of just being lightly moisturized with odd pauses/breaks so I'd get the right side of my neck rubbed, then the masseuse would mix oils, then he'd rub my upper back, then he'd mix oils, then he'd rub the right upper arm, then he'd mix oils, then the same on the other side. It wasn't just a quick squirt of the lotion or oil either. It took a bizarrely long time to do the mixing and each time he'd have to leave me and walk over to the counter. Super super weird experience. It was a 90 min massage and I'm pretty sure I got about 30 min of very light massage. Oddest most unfulfilling massage I've ever had. read more
