Came in today for a gel manicure and a pedicure. Made an appointment and they were ready for me. Definitely enjoyed the pedicure and massage chair. Music was on point and it was not crowded. I actually liked paying by Venmo and the staff was nice. I would have given a 5, but the ambience was pretty cluttered. Love my nails and I will return! read more

In general, I do like Summer Breeze. I've been coming for years, even when I would just come down for a weekend. It's usually easy to get an appointment and you can do it right on your phone. However, I do feel like they are starting to rush some of the services. I used to do an express pedicure but lately I've been doing the regular pedicure. (About $10 more and supposed to be about 40 minutes vs the 30 of the express). The last 3 times, I've paid for a regular pedicure, it hasn't lasted longer than 30 minutes. (I've actually timed it from when I actually sit in the pedicure chair to when they move me to the drying station). And that's with the exfoliating and lotion massage add ons. The app does say it's supposed to be 40 minutes but can be more or less time (but it is ALWAYS less than 40 minutes) When I first started coming, a pedicure would always last a minimum of 40-45 minutes but now everything is rushed into a lesser time frame. They still did a good job but I don't think it's worth paying the extra to get the regular pedicure since you arent getting any additional time. Getting my nails done is a treat and one of the few things I do for myself and I like feeling pampered. Next time, I will probably just opt for the express pedi and save the cash. read more

I haven't gone to a nail salon in years so I thought I would treat myself since I was down the shore. I saw there were good reviews for this place so I gave it a shot. I saw that the price was higher than most places so I expected good service and a nice manicure. I was very disappointed! I had to tell the manicurist to fix up my nails after she put the second coat since she clearly missed painting half my nail and she still did not fix all of them. Would not go back again! read more

Summer Breeze Nails & Spa - Manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Avalon, New Jersey

they were very nice but I am not someone who likes to get color because it damages my nails (personally). but it was pretty clear since I didn't do color I got absolutely 0% of the treatment. No soaking my nails, no oil/lotion/massage, no asking me the shape or length. they just tore into my bone dry nails all the way to below my skin line. I am pretty pissed, it literally all happened so fast I didn't get to process what they were doing. I came for maintenance, so they can stay strong and grow nicely. instead I have no nails, the bone dry cutting means they'll likely split when they do grow back, and they made no attempt to shape so theyre all wonky looking - I could literally cry read more

I had a spa pedicure here this week and it was wonderful! It included 2 leg massages which were needed due to my job. It's a nice salon, pretty decor and lots of polishes to choose from, and no hidden charges. I'll be back. read more

The owners took me without an appointment great experience I needed a Mani / Pedi and was treated like a queen. Thank you so much.

I have had multiple great experiences at summer breeze. Their online booking makes it so easy to make / change appointments. Tony is a great and timely read more

One of the worst gel manicures I have had. My appointment was at 9:15 and I was in my car at 9:32. Not worth my money. I will never go back.

Absolutely the best in Avalon! Lisa has such great nail salon! Clean! Covid certified! Great people who work here to maintain the top notch service! Clean & friendly environment Chairs are so comfortable, great nail polish selection & great tunes! Isabella is a delight! She works at the front desk! Manages the scheduling perfectly! Very warm and inviting! Providing the best possible service during these unprecedented times! Thank you all! Will be back! read more

I had a fabulous pedicure by Tony today & will definitely be back! I made an appointment over the phone yesterday (8/20/22) right before they were about to close & I was able to get in by noon today. Not only do I love the color I chose, I told Tony I was kind of ticklish when it comes to Pedicures & he was awesome. Great conversation & I'll be back every summer! Thanks Tony & Summer Breeze! I would take a picture of my toes right now but I just got off the beach so they are covered with sand! See you guys soon! Xoxo read more

My favorite nail salon in Avalon. The location is very new looking and its always clean. They also have massage pedicure chairs which is always a plus! It doesn't reek of acetone like other nail salons. Prices are also very reasonable. I would recommend making a reservation as they are almost always busy, especially on the weekends. It is the shore! The technicians that I've had have always been nice and careful with my nails. I feel as though they take their time to ensure a good job. I've brought friends here and keep coming back! CASH ONLY! They have an ATM read more

This was my first visit to Summer Breeze and I will definitely be back. I had Kevin for a mani/pedi and it was the best I've ever had. It's appointment only, and was easy to make a reservation within a day. I was taken back quickly and the staff was very attentive. The salon sets the standard for cleanliness, absolutely pristine. They are cash only, but have an ATM on the premises. read more

This place used to have such great service, but it has sadly gone downhill. I believe they have succumbed to the same mindset as the other local nail salons: low competition=mediocre service. They have a sign-in sheet at the front desk but it seems to hold very little meaning. All in all, there's nothing that sets them apart from other nail salons on the island anymore. It is, however, a good place to kill time on a non-beach day. read more

Express Pedi at $22 is worth it. Wished the staff were a bit more personal. No talking at all. Put you under dryers and forgotten. No one came to spray toes or remove toe separators. Just left there. I stood up after 30 min removed and sprayed myself. My two daughters also came and were both rushed through. We had an appointment and they had to wait for 20 min before being brought in. Then they were finished 5 minutes after I was. Next time we will try a different place. read more

YAY OH YAY OH YAY!!!! My favorite and BEST nail salon in Avalon did not disappear! They only moved down the street.... Did NOT disappoint this morning at their new location. Walked in at 930 am on a Saturday. They open at 900 am - MAKE AN APPOINTMENT so you are guaranteed your time. It's 1030 am now and it's busy . They're open year round - if you are only here for a weekend - make an appointment or get here first thing in the morning. Rainy days are always busy, too, but this place is worth it!! Excellent value - my pedis don't chip they only grow out - and the prices are spot on. I can't review manis because I don't get them - but staff is A++++ as always. Anything you don't like? Let them know as soon as it's happened and it's fixed immediately. Great customer service! Pricing is clearly posted everywhere (different polishes have upcharges if you are into that sort of thing) and there is LITERALLY a chart of what comes with each level of pedi. (I'm an Express girl - $22 is cheaper than where I would go in Exton or Downingtown, and you get more bang for your buck.) This is a family business that has been serving Avalon for almost ten years. I come down all year long and try to plan my pedis here in the fall and winter too. read more

I was excited to see that Summer Breeze has moved across the street from their previous location. You really can't beat the Express Pedi deal -- $22 for essentially a full pedi. The only service missing from the express version is the lotion/massage. You're still getting a full soak, nail treatment, and hot towels. However, the full pedi at $30 isn't a bad deal either. Service was quick (got a same-day appt) and friendly. This is a family-owned business from Cape May, and all of the technicians are professional and careful to do a nice job. Will absolutely be back! read more

Excellent pedicure and french gel manicure in a clean, orderly, and pleasant salon. I made an appointment for my mother and me for manis and pedis; we arrived early and they were ready for us. The attention to cleanliness and nail care was exceptional. I was a bit concerned coming here because beach salons often disappoint, but this salon is better than most in my hometown. read more

Pre-wedding Nerves!!!! I recently got married in Stone Harbor and a few days before, I made appt to get a gel mani/ pedi with my maid of honor. The day of, I changed it to four girls and they were so accommodating. We had a great morning chatting and hanging out and everyone loved their nails! Me, being the bride, thought I was going to have to be picky and it was the amazing nail tech that was picky ( in a great way). She was giving me a gel French manicure and re-did the white lines a few times to make sure they were absolutely perfect for my big day! On top of the fact that everyone loved their nails, they lasted forever!!! And the only reason I just changed out my gel was because I am about to leave for my honeymoon and wanted a bright color.... Not because they were chipped. Best gel manicure I ever had! Thank you Summer Breeze! From one happy bride! read more

My friend and I visited on Monday 5/26. We called around 11am to make two appointments for noon. We arrived a little early and were seen right away. Tony and David were our technicians and they were both excellent. We each got a polish change on our toes and a gel manicure (my friend's involved a soak off, which they did while she had her toe polish change). Despite being just a polish change, we both had an excellent shaping and cuticle clean up and the polish was absolutely perfect. Tony even helped me find another color to layer over what I had picked out when he saw I wasn't in love with the color I had chosen. Our gel manicures are absolutely perfect and they were both so meticulously done. Tony even did a little design on my ring finger! It is probably the best gel manicure I've ever had. This is definitely going to be my place whenever I'm in town. read more

Waiting a half hour isn't too bad for this busy salon - but made an appointment and think a 35 minutes wait and confused owner didn't help me de- stress. So not on their game today. read more

Awesome nail salon. Such a nice family who runs it and they are very careful with COVID. Highly recommend them.

Clean salon, professional staff! I had an appointment today and walked in with pretty beat up hands and feet ( I work outdoors) and I walked out with beautiful nails! read more

I made an appointment for 1:00 pm on a Tuesday. I received a call at 12:50 asking to move it to 2 which I did. I then received a call at 1:55 canceling the appointment altogether. Was very disappointed in the lack of customer care throughout this process. My friend is going tomorrow -- hopefully my experience is unique, but I am not optimistic. My friends appointment the next day was a pleasant surprise. She found the salon to be beautiful, clean, and the customer service to be excellent. I'm very glad to say that my original impression did not hold true! read more

I SO wanted to like this place. However, the customer service is LACKING. I called ahead, and they told me to come in at 130, and didn't take my name. I came in at 125, and had to wait until 2pm because they took TWO walk-ins before me! They called all 3 of us back at the same time, but left me to "soak" while the other girls were attended to immediately. This might have even been ok, but I had to ask multiple times "how long". Hard to walk out when your feet are in water - nice tactic. As for the pedicure itself...not bad. I use vinylux and they upcharge for this. The color selection was small and seemed a bit older. Maybe I'm just in a mood because I'm now late (I'm a mom, my baby was napping, so I try to sneak out during that time). My husband is so going to give me crap. Pedicures are a treat for the feet, and can be so much more when done well. For the price of this one, I'm left feeling meh. read more

Really great salon down the shore! Friendly, hardworking and accommodating staff. Super clean space with a really large selection of polish. Highly recommend! read more

We called ahead to make sure they could take 3 mani pedis and they gave us a later time so we wouldn't have to wait. They took us right away an hour before closing but they were packed. I can see why - this was a GREAT m/p. It's very clean and well kept. All the staff were very pleasant and seemed quite experienced and careful. No rushing but not dragged out forever. All of us were happy with the great leg massage and the perfect polish. Too bad we live in LA. read more

Love it here! For sure the best nail place in Avalon! Friendly family run business. I've been coming for years and they never disappoint!

This is a sweet luxury for me!! Everyone was so helpful and really kind and courteous. The gentleman who did my toes gave me a towel to cover my legs and my skirt! How kind! We will be here next year for sure!! read more

I went there to only remove my mani! Simple right!!. They were so rude and told me to come back tomorrow because they don't have time!. I literally saw 3 other employees just sitting around. They place was almost empty around 6:50pm!. Not just that but the way she was talking and acting was ridiculous for someone her age!. read more
