This is my second time at this location. I was looking on Groupon for some pampering to prep for my bday and saw they had a Groupon for a facial, massage, mani & pedi. Booking was easy, just called and they got me in. They texted me to remind me and also asking if i can arrive a bit earlier which i arrived around 1:45pm for my 2pm appt. The facial was first and i was so glad, i haven't had a facial in a full year when i prepared for my last bday. Irina was so nice and made sure the experience was amazing. She also got into those extractions and gave me advice for my next services to help my skin. Next, was my massage with Dana which i upgraded to a deep tissue. Soo relaxing these ladies have magical hands for real. Lastly was the pedi following the mani with Diana. I upgraded to gel mani. She was easy to talk to we have children similar ages and was a breath of fresh air. I truly enjoyed my experience today. This place is very nice and staff here is so nice even the front desk. It also smells amazing inside and those face towels too! Like essential oils. I will def be returning and requesting these ladies ! read more

If I could review all my services individually they would be wildly different scores. my facial was stellar and the esthetician did some work with extractions! She got a bunch that the facialist from two weeks ago (different location) skipped! Worth it!!! Edit to my review : Vada reached out to try and fix the short lived manicure, I really appreciate that level of customer service. Got a manicure and pedicure and it was very ok. It lasted 3 days. And the massage was fine. Also ensure you are getting the best deal as prices seem to fluctuate widely. read more

Normally I go to cheapie massage spots so I was a little anxious and hoping this place wasn't too pretentious. The staff is super nice and pleasant. My manicurist Adrianna was skilled and fast. My waxer Leeza was so sweet and she was very precise with my brows. Now to why I came- the massage. The room was super clean. Massage bed was heated and cozy. The music was soothing. I was relaxed before my therapist even came in the room.I opted for the CBD oil. Definitely try this. It was an extra $20 and I would get it again. My therapist Dinaro was the star of my visit. I got the deep tissue massage and the pressure was just right. She really knows how to get to the knots and work them out. I loved my massage. I will come again And treat my husband. Vada was the relaxation that I've been needing for weeks. read more

My daughter and I made an appointment for massage and facial for noon on June 1, 2026. My daughter was stuck in traffic so I made the receptionist aware only to be told there would be an additional cost of $25 because she had to make the adjustment. I made her aware that we have been customers for over fifteen years. She apologized and said the fee was to be applied. No place in the contract states that policy. I believe I'll have to find another place because in my opinion the $25 could have been waived. Will make my granddaughter & grandson aware that we will no longer use them. It's not like people were waiting- the place was empty. read more

Thank-you Vada spa for my fantastic service for a Mani&Pedi! Eliza was so kind and professional. I enjoyed my time with her and in the inviting environment. See you soon, Nadine read more

Horrible experience here today. I got a gel manicure and asked for a stripe pattern, to which my manicurist agreed. She did not take any care in prepping my nails, meaning she left a lot of my old color around the edges of my nails and did not shape my nails at all. When she finished the base coat, she attempted to do this stripe pattern, but it was possibly the worst attempt at stripes i've ever seen. I'm not upset that this woman could not do stripes, but that she accepted my request KNOWING she could not replicate my inspiration. So now i have a plain, patternless base color that I would not have chose otherwise, old color on the edges, uneven nails, and no refund!!!???? She attempted to fix the color at the edges and ended up filing off half the top coat on the nails she did paint. So so horrible. Cherry on top: these were supposed to be my special birthday nails. read more

Liza is amazing!!! Really apparent she cares about her job - just goes above and beyond! Thank you - I'll be back :)

Love this place!!! My friend and I came here 30 mins late and they were still able to accommodate us. We did have to cut down on our massage time. First, my friend and I ordered through Groupon a deal for Facial 45 mins and Massage 60mins! Really great deal! We called them to make an appointment! They were very nice. When we got here, the place is clean and the hostess are very friendly. I believe they offer complimentary glass of wine but since were late, we didn't receive that which was okay. On to the treatments, I had Olga for my facial and she's very sweet and could tell she's experienced. I loved the atmosphere in the room. Everything smelled so stress-free! Lavender :) For my 30 mins massage, I had Eugene. They asked me if I had a guy/girl preference for a masseuse but I didn't care. For a 30mins massage, Eugene was a pro. The massage was amazing !!! I def reco this place. read more

I went in for a shellac manicure and regular pedicure. Originally, a technician by the name of Tatiana was set to complete my service. Upon seeing her, I felt that her energy was off as she practically grunted when she asked me to pick my polish. Always trust your instincts. She barely greeted me, didn't offer to put my coat away, and didn't offer me a drink which is customary at this location. As she's doing my nails, I simply ask her if she can clean under my nails. She then looks up at me with this extremely condescending look to which she says I quote "You're picky. When I go to the salon, I tell them what I want and I stay on my phone." I clearly understood that she was basically telling me that I should keep my mouth shut. At this point, I was upset that this nail technician would think it's normal to overstep her boundaries and speak to me in such a way. She obviously lacks basic training in customer service. At this point, I tell her to stop the service and get someone else. I speak to the manager who agrees that Tatiana's comment was inappropriate and offers Adriana. If you go to this salon, request Adriana. She's an absolute gem. She immediately apologized for Tatiana's action, putting me at ease, and made sure that I left satisfied with my service. Attention Management: Adriana is the only reason that you're getting 3 stars instead of 1. I suggest you have a serious discussion with Tatiana about her attitude. She should have apologized to me before I left. read more

I am really happy with my service today.. Donna is amazing. I had the Brazilian wax, full legs, annd buttocks and she was amazing...took her time. She was very gentle and I wasn't hardly in any pain. I would highly recommend her. I've been getting Waxing done for more than four years now. And I have never met someone like her Uni K Wax doesn't compare.. read more

First time back since pre pandemic and I'm so glad my boyfriend got me a Groupon here. They fit me in for a mani pedi at 2pm on a Saturday no problem. Adriana was TOP NOTCH! 5 / 5 Very patient and effective! I'll be back specifically asking for Adriana! read more

Vada Spa and Laser Center - Adriana's hard work! She's THE BEST!! - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

Honestly, Isabel the stylist was AMAZING. She clearly cares about her clients and I knew I was in good hands. However, I will NEVER return. I've been before with Groupons for multiple services throughout the years. The older blonde (owner?) lady at the front desk really scams you. I also got messages all week trying to rush me in on other days when I didn't consent to that. I bought a groupon valued at $139 which offered cut & style with roots or partial color. I needed some partial growth recolored and I was quoted $205 in ADDITION to my $139. I have long hair and I get that places like this LOVE to charge people for length even though it's still cutting hair the same. Charging me $200 when I already paid for a service is so completely absurd and inflated, it's laughable. The older blonde lady makes a big show of calling the 'front' to offer me a deal of $175 (in addition to my $139 Groupon) and I still declined. At the end, she called the stylist amid seeving another client to make sure I didn't lie about the color service and see if I tipped. I tipped $40 and will never return or recomend Vada to another person. Not sure if she's racist her what her issue was that was despicable behavior. Post covid, in their new space, they have become hugely overpriced money grubbers. Very bad business practices. read more

you know I never write reviews but wow I went Saturday for like a spa day that included a mani pedi massage and facial I felt like the pedi was rushed , no skin buffing to remove callus besides the painted toes wouldn't even tell I had a pedicure . I paid extra to get gel tip extentions with design which was not very cheap and I kid you not lasted 2 days they started separating and one literally fell off . Waste of money would not go back . read more

This review is about their waxing and manicure service. Booking for the 2 services on separate occasions was a breeze and they follow up with a call / text as a reminder. This is my go-to spot for chocolate waxing. I found this place because of a Groupon deal and I kept coming back even if I had to pay full price because the service is phenomenal. I've tried other places and end up getting literally burned. The technicians here are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I snagged the Shellac Groupon to try their manicure services and tried it for the first time last night and. I loved how my nails came out (picked 2 colors to use, one on top of the other) and liked most of the experience. It would have been a 5-star experience if not for the tech buffing too near my left thumbs' nail bed it scraped some of my skin and also nipped too close it made 2 cuts (see photos). These were my major let down. I'm not too keen with the manicure services but will definitely be back for the waxing. read more

I went to Vada for a single process, cut & blow-out based on a groupon offer. Since I needed the service done the Sat before Mother's day, I called Vada to make the appointment first. They said they would honor the offer, but asked that I did not purchase through Groupon - I assume to save on the commission. On arrival I am told due to my long hair it would be $20 more for the cut & blow out. I was also told that the "single process" meant for roots only & mine were too long to qualify so it would be $65 more too. These extras doubled the cost. I was in a bind and said yes. Then it got worse. I was asked what color, and I said med brown cool/ash - no brass or red please. The tech started to mix without showing me a sample of the color or even bringing one over to match! I had to stop her and ask for it. Then it was an argument because she was going way too dark and picking a warm tone. I have been coloring for 30 years, I know how it works. The manager got involved - said the tech was matching to my darkest base for the root touch-up. I pointed out since I am now paying more for a "full single process", that should not matter. Manager agreed, tech went to mix the color I choose. Bottom line - She mixed the color I did not want. My hair is dark and very reddish! I noticed it during the blow-out but was told it was due to the lighting. Such BullShit. All day at the family party everyone commented on how red my hair is particularly on top. Now that I washed, it is even worse. Picture is an hour after I left the salon. Avoid this salon. It practices deceptive processes. read more

Very pleased with my first visit at Vada Spa. came here for a gel mani and reg pedi. I had an evening appointment but since I was free during the day, I called them to ask if they can accommodate me earlier and they took me in on such a short notice.

This is a must use laser hair removal location. The machine is magic compared to other places. I always book with Anastasia, she is very knowledgeable, professional, and makes you feel very very comfortable. After one session, I noticed a tremendous difference in the slow down of the growth of my hair. Very very happy here! read more

Came here for a last minute gel mani and regular pedi session on a Friday at around 1 pm. I only had to wait for about 10 minutes. They offered me water. I used the restroom and put my coat in the coat closet while I waited. Mayra did both my pedi and mani and she was amazing! You can tell she's been doing this for a while. She would keep going back and perfecting whatever needed to be adjusted, which I appreciate. I asked for a special design (see photo) and she was completely comfortable executing it. A LOT of places have a hard time doing something other than a basic French manicure, so I have to scour their review photos to see if they might be able to handle something like a cool ombre. Voila! They honored the current Groupon price of $40 for a gel mani and regular pedi + $15 for the special design + tax + tip (cash or Venmo directly to the technician). Their regular bottles were all Essie, which I don't love. You have to pay $5 extra for higher quality nail polish. Kind of silly, but so many places do this. The ladies working the front desk were also professional and very nice. Will come back. read more

I came here a week ago for a shellac manicure. I purchased a groupon for an awesome price. I had the pleasure of having Lucia as a nail technician. She was very kind and took her time with my nails. She made sure she applied enough coats (four) so that my nails would look good. There was not anything out of place and my gel manicure was very neat. In the end, I wasn't crazy about the color I selected but that was a fault of my own lol. Next time, I'll try another color. No chips so far and it has been a week. If it starts chipping before two weeks, I'll update my review. Also, they were gracious and allowed me to start my appointment early. I really appreciated it. Seems like a solid nail salon. I'll definitely be back! read more

Another place that I've been a patron of more than 8 years. However, it wasn't until this Feb that I feel I found the best esthetician in the biz and fell in love. There isn't a hair growing that can survive her skills with some wax and popsicle sticks, lol. For those of us who like the results of this torture we know it's virtually impossible to have a pain free experience well this gem knows how to achieve the impossible. Reluctantly, I will share her name, in fear that I will be unable to get an appointment when needed. This wonderfully skilled esthetician is IRA and she is the bomb.com Vada offers a plethora of other services. From hair & nail services, massages, & laser treatments. The spa is clean, they have late hours, and they move pretty quickly. read more

Just got back to Vada Spa for a long overdue visit. First time on new location. Was almost empty at noon Saturday which surprised me but it was a very relaxing time. They have a sign on the south window but nothing overhead yet, i hope they can get signage above their doors soon. I almost missed them, between the store on the left and the right, but glad I did not :-) Gorgeous new color scheme and very nice zen vibes... Again a wonderful experience and the new space is very beautiful. Thank you! read more

Please beware as your service is now based on the minutes. This appears to be something new. Does not matter the condition of your skin. Like a taxi meter for your . I was charged 170 for a "European facial " with chest. Then 1 month later 210. And told it was 2 hours of service at 105 per hour. This is very odd way of doing business. Good Luck. #.

I've been going to vada spa for a couple of years now. I did tattoo removal and mani/pedi. Everyone is very professional. They also have a great booking system, easy to schedule and reschedule via phone and texts. Both gel and regular pedicure were great. I'll go back! read more

They did a decent job and it was a good price with a coupon but it did chip fairly quickly even though I got gel

I got a Signature Hydrafacial treatment with Rosie and it was truly the BEST facial I have had in the city...I 10/10 recommend!

The place is decent. Reception is welcoming. My review is for Nail technician, Tatiana? I think she was borderline biased. She was talking way too much, making unnecessary comments about me. About my personal "appearance ". At some point she pulled really hard on my skin. I think she has to focus on work more. read more

I've been coming to Vada for almost a year now and I absolutely love this place. They offer an excellent menu of services and the prices are very fair and even competitive when I researched other spas. My favorite tech is Irina, she's amazing!! She does both my facial (I highly recommend the Vitamin Sea facial for an instant 10 years off your face) and my deep tissue massage, so it's a beautiful, unbroken energy with the same person. The nail salon is very upscale and I really like the set up with privacy curtains between the chairs. The entire staff treats you like a VIP, and I always feel like I've given myself the biggest hug after leaving. The location is excellent, steps away from the West 4th street station. Do yourself a favor and Go!! read more

I had to stop coming here because they always put pressure to get more things done that you do not need so they make the experience quite stressful when you're supposed to be there to relax and enjoy getting your nails or hair done. '' Do you want to do hair or laser today since you are already here you can get everything done ''? No thanks I would not like to pay $200 extra since I only came here for a manicure. The lady also won't let you leave until you make an appointment?? Goodbye read more

I visited Vada after seeing it on a Groupon for a gel manicure for $23 ($2 off the usual Groupon price of $25, and the full price is around $40). I booked my appointment over the phone and it was pretty easy with the receptionist. I also showed up an hour early and the salon was able to accommodate me. The quality of my mani is great, if not 4-5 stars; it was the level of comfort of the salon that needs improvement. I couldn't relax because my arm was awkwardly placed with my hand to rest on the UV machine. I couldn't wait to get out of the salon because I felt uncomfortable and not at all relaxed. My thumb also bled; it's been about two days and still feels slightly infected/swollen. read more

I bought a Groupon and got a shellac mani and regular pedi for really cheap. I then proceeded to cancel it. I'd recommend calling them directly though and asking for the Groupon deal as they will honor it (and Groupon takes a HUGE chunk from businesses). I had Ira and if you have her, she is very thorough and won't leave you with a half baked job. My nail beds are great. My shellac is gorgeous. And my cracked soles are also scrubbed to perfection - as in she really went to town with it and I'm yet to find a place that pays attention there. Go here. Support businesses directly. read more

So bummed about my haircut. I went in for a standard trim to my long very fine hair, and explained to the concierge that I wanted to "take off 3-4 inches to clean up the ends" because they were lacking volume. The cut started off great! Then the stylist who didn't speak English started butchering the ends with thinning sheers AND point cutting...as I mentioned my hair is super fine, unfortunately she was unable to comprehending when I was asked why she started shredding the ends. The blow out looked very nice, but 3 days later it's looking worse on the ends than when I went in and it's now several inches shorter. I have a photo shoot with some athlete sponsors next month and am going to have to pay hundred of dollars to get extensions to compensate for all the volume taken out of my hair which is exactly the opposite of what I asked for. The spa itself is very clean, and appointment availability is great, and the staff was super friendly. Just very unfortunate to walk away with a shitty cut for my hair. read more

After several years of not getting services done there they didn't disappoint. I got a Groupon gift for Christmas and just used it before it expired. I'm happy I went and I booked my massage and facial with Dinora, she's amazing her hands are magic. Carmen did my mani and pedicure she was also very good. Yes, the ladies are the front desk always ask to upgrade your package but, you can always refuse and get the services as is no pressure. Every, business does that to make the remaining money off the original price. I always make it up with a good TIP for those hard working ladies. The place is clean and well kept. read more

Booked a couples massage for Valentine's Day, and must say, this was pretty great. Got there a little later on a Saturday, and as we were waiting they passed us complimentary wine. A little bit more like fruit juice than wine, and couldn't finish, but nice thought. When we first entered, our room had disco lights going off, which at first was kind of cute, but just got a little annoying. We did a body scrub first, which, was not my favorite. Not because of them, just wasn't a fan of the rough exfoliation and then sitting in it. My partner said it was too rough as well. Wouldn't do this again. My massage was fantastic. Lina was my masseuse and she was outstanding. I have a lot of tightness and usually I'm in a lot of pain during massages. This was the first that was relaxing without being over the top. Loved. It was hot stone which was also magical. We then got facials as well which were lovely as well. Very nice job, and would definitely come back for that as well. All in all great prices and great job. I'd happily head back down and make this a permanent stop! read more

Came here after I seeing a Groupon online for a shellac mani and pedi! After calling to confirm it was valid, I took a screenshot of the Groupon and brought that in instead of buying it on the Groupon site. DO THIS! They honored the price right away.

Ira really took her time and was meticulous and thorough throughout, helping me choose my design and trying out a few options along the way to make sure I really liked what we chose. Felt like family! Thanks so much I will be coming back. read more
