I got a mani pedi at Aptos nails and had such a pleasant experience! The person who attended me was so calm, kind, and did beautiful work! I love the way my nails look and would definitely recommend. read more

We decided to try a new nail place for pedicures. We made a reservation and were able to sit down immediately when we walked in even though they were getting busy. They did not have people ready for a us right away but we got to be comfortable and start picking out colors and soak. They had a wide variety of colors to choose from and even accommodated my request. It's clean inside and a modern atmosphere. We did the paraffin wax package and they did a great job! They took their time and it was very relaxing. I look forward to going back! read more

Did a walk in. Pretty busy. Friendly staff. Decent prices. Color choices were not thrilling. Think she forgot my top coat. Did a good job exfoliating my feet. Used something like a cheese grater. Lol. Id go back. read more

Made an appointment for Saturday at 11:30, when I came in I was told to sit and sat for over 45 mins until anyone spoke to me. As I sat it seemed multiple regulars walked in and were seated immediately. Around 5 hours after my manicure my ring finger snapped off with barely any pressure. They were too busy to fix it that afternoon, then closed Sunday. Monday morning they fixed it for free but Monday afternoon my pointer finger broke off. I'm not sure if it was my nail tech, application or the product used but I'm extremely disappointed with my manicure. In all my years of having acrylics I'd never had them be so fragile. read more

Had a relaxing quiet morning listening to my book as I go the #3 pedicure with gel and a new gel set manicure. Came out to $152 for both which is fair for going rates. Menu was easy to read and options well explained. I went Tuesday morning between 9:30-10am. Really appreciated the calf massage as my legs have been sore the last week. My last gel-dip manicure lasted 4-6 weeks but I couldn't afford a refill, so I'm going to try next month for a refill as that was recommended to be cheaper and better for my nails. The salon was clean and well staffed. The music was inviting and an appropriate volume do a slow overcast morning. I'm glad they take credit cards; machine worked easily. read more

Aptos Nails - Matching gel mani & pedicure April 2026 - Nail Salons Near Me - Aptos, California

I had an appointment and they made me wait 30 minutes for them to start, then also I had asked how much they charged for a fill and two broken nails and thought it was a little pricy but accepted and once I paid they charged another 5 dollars saying the color I chose was pricier. The color was just a light pink with no design no extra on it. My nails bumpy and some longer than others. It wasn't a good experience over all. read more

The salon was clean and convenient, but $58 dollars for a 30 minute pedicure, not including the gratuity, left me feeling taken advantage of. I thought I had traded up for a longer hot stone pedi massage but never saw or felt the hot stones. With lots of people popping in with no appointment you will be rushed through your service to accommodate more. read more

Best pedicure I have ever had. Clean salon, amazing massage, it didn't feel rushed, perfectly painted nails. Overall great experience, will be back! read more

I love Aptos nails! They are amazing and so efficient. Kelsey did my nails again today and absolutely killed it. We came in with 4 girls for mani and pedi before a Mexico bachelorette and we all left very happy! They took their time, offered their opinions, and did an incredible job! read more

I have been going there for a couple years and recently had gel polish applied, and unfortunately, the polish quickly came off of one of my fingernails. When I went to have it fixed, I was turned away and told they were too busy to deal with it. This is not the first time my gel polish has peeled off quickly when having it done there. read more

* The Place Where My Hands Feel at Peace Every time I visit this salon, I feel calm. They don't rush or push unnecessary services - they simply focus on care, precision, and kindness. My nails always look natural and clean, just the way I like them -- the color between calm and warmth. You can tell they genuinely care about their clients, and that honesty shines through their work. It's rare to find a place that does things right quietly, without noise, without pretense. That's why I'm writing this review to say thank you, sincerely. read more

Loved my experience here! Got a french manicure and pedicure. They were attentive, taking their time to get it right. Very relaxing. The staff was kind and thoughtful, making sure I was happy with the outcome. I will be back. read more

Had an appointment at 10:45, nail tech took someone else 5 minutes before. They had me wait 45 minutes just to tell me to leave because they couldn't accommodate me. Used to really love this place and how much they cared about their long term clients. read more

I highly recommend this place for your nail services. The staff is friendly and helpful. They always do a great job. Always a consistent great nail service. read more

Do not go here, they cut me during a pedicure in 2 spots. Did not say anything to me at all, they also did not paint my entire nail . Only part of my nails on all my toes. Truly for $40? Not great, not worth it. Very unfortunate that this is what was offered. read more

I received a really poor manicure today, and this is not the first time. My nails are all bumpy from not allowing the paint to dry in between coats and my arms have red welts from the woman massaging my arms so hard, it was really painful. read more

I was worried because of the reviews but they are so close to home so thought I'd give it a chance. Nails look beautiful. They filled and corrected issues I had with first set from different salon. Thank you Aptos Nails! read more

I recently went for the I don't know how manynth time. I called ahead and they said they had no wait. But when I arrived I needed to wait a little bit. So there must have been some walk in's. They do a great pedicure and the best pumice (actually dremel) of your foot bottoms. It's pretty quiet and parking is easy. The only downside is the price is much higher (I'm guessing due to less seats) than Tracy's. But it does have a convenient Aptos location which is a nice plus. read more

Always quality service! Very relaxing and everyone is so nice! Highly recommended! So thorough fixing my broken toe nail. read more

The ladies in the salon are not verbal with you. They are so serious it makes for a bad vibe. My pedicure was just so so. She seemed to be in a rush. I had the young man do my manicure and he did a really good job. It just seems so unfriendly! I don't think I have ever seen a smile there. I had an eyebrow wax that was not good!!! She was too rushed. I'm gonna to stick to friendlier places. Place is depressing. read more

I am so mad that I spent $50 on a pedicure and my toenails were smudged and uneven, and never dried. Tina was rude and didn't seem to care about anything that I asked getting a pedicure is a luxury and this end up being a nightmare I will never be back here. people beware of their polish and the way that they paint horrible job ! read more

Good nails but they don't close at 6:30. They'll be leaving by 6pm so they really should change their hours if they're not willing to still accept a walk in. The vibes are the same as any other place. read more

What has happened to Aptos Nails? It use to be so clean and well kept, I went in for a pedicure and they used tools that were already out and used and the same with all the filing boards!!!!!!!! The place just seemed dirty. The best part of all was one of the girls sat across from me and worked on her own feet, that was enjoyable, not! The gal that did my pedicure did a great job, just was not thrilled about the fact that all the tools in files had already been used read more

We had a great experience at Aptos Nails! They accommodated me, my mother-in-law, and daughter on a Saturday! We didn't feel rushed and the service was excellent! So friendly and welcoming. read more

It was a nice salon and they did an okay job. I went in for a pedicure and a full set and started my pedicure first. What bothered me is that the two ladies working on my nails would not stop talking. I mean I get conversations, but they talked and laughed the entire time through what was supposed to be relaxing. The woman who did my full set did screw up at the very end and had to laser away all the color on two nails because she rushed which was frustrating. Might give this place a second shot because the first impression was mediocre at best. read more

I brought my 3 little girls here for pre-spring break pedicures and the nail techs were so patient and wonderful with my crew!

It's been 3 hours and my toes aren't dry. They are all smudged at this point. I would drive back but thats an hour round trip for me. I asked for no gel. I think she used gel and they aren't drying because there was no uv light to cure them since I asked for no gel. What a waste of $45 (tip included). read more

Kelly did an amazing job on my working hands! Natural color with some white on the tip in gel! They last weeks! She is meticulous about the perfect curve! Definitely a repeat customer! Massage chairs are great here! read more

I went to this salon twice . My first experience was below par. The woman doing my nails was rude and mean . I left with a terrible experience vowing to never return. I did return a second time because it's close to my home. Big mistake . I stood there waiting for over 30 minutes before someone had the "courtesy " to tell me they were not taking any more people that day. While I was waiting a man I presume the husband of the woman he was accosting tried to physically remove her while she was doing someone's toes! There was yelling and violence and no one stopped him - I will never return and I recommend you go to one of the many other salons in the area. read more

I thought the service and quality of pedi/mani was amazing. Store was very clean, organized and several guests were in and out promptly. Several walk ins can by and they promptly accommodate them. I'm not sure why the people who rated so low. My experience was completely the opposite. read more

Had an excellent pedicure yesterday. My poor feet haven't had many. The place is clean, and the workers professional. I believe Jenny was the one who tackled these tired feet, and she was just great and my feet have never looked better. I Highly recommend. read more

Had full sex of ex nails applied by Ricky on Saturday. Kept having to tell him they were crooked and he seems annoyed by that. Also saw no evidence of sterilization of tools. Never again read more

I've been twice now for a gel mani/ pedi and eyebrow waxing all done by Sara. She is thorough and I am impressed with my nails and brows. They have been able to help me with a walk in twice however it could be best to call because they seem to be a buzzing spot. read more
