I had a super positive experience with this spa yesterday. It was easy & quick to schedule a massage. The location was easy to find and lots of close parking. The lobby was clean, neat, and relaxing. I had a 1 hour prenatal massage which was fantastic! My massage therapist was kind and did a good job- Pressure was perfect. Table was comfortable, and temperature of the room was perfect. She occasionally would place warm towels over areas she has worked on which was super relaxing. There was no awkward conversation. And the prices were awesome! $88/1 hr I feel like is a great deal. I will definitely be going back! (Prenatal pillow in picture allowed me to be "on my stomach" comfortably! #bliss) read more

Ava Bella Day Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

If anyone purchases a gift card, you better remember the gift card number and balance each time you go. They say they do not have a way of storing gift card numbers purchased online on clients' accounts. They receive their money from online purchases but have no way of having any knowledge of it, unless the client keeps up with it. If I were a small business, I would have found a way. Each time I went, it was always the excuse that it was, "the system." I'd be better if my income were truly based on my business. read more

Incredible Massage! Good price. Friendly staff. Laid back vibe. I have been going for years, and finally decided to get a membership. Really like the ability to pay monthly at a discounted rate rather than purchase a pack of massages up front like some other places. read more

Do not waste money on lashes at this location terrible is an understatement!!! $225 Will get you a cheap looking set of lashes that looks as if you got a lash strip from the dollar store!!! I've been getting my lashes done for over 10 years..... I have never spent that much and left looking that basic!!!

I purchased a gift card for a massage and facial for Father's Day g for my husband. When he arrived for his appointment he was told he would be receiving a massage and a sauna. He didn't argue but he would have preferred what I purchased. Not sure I would purchase another GC or return. read more

Not worth the time of day. Customer service is awful. Had to reschedule three times in the last two months

I received a gift certificate from my husband for a massage and pedicure. I was excited to redeem them after hearing glowing reviews from others who have used Ava Bella. I arrived at my designated appointment time and shortly thereafter my masseuse came to meet me. The massage was wonderful. Page was awesome. After my massage, I was escorted to a waiting room where someone would come collect me for my pedicure. I don't know the name of the pedicurist as she didn't introduce herself. The pedicure was lacking to say the least. I felt rushed through the entire process and couldn't relax for the constant chatter from the tech. After it was over I was dismayed to find that my feet were in no better shape than when I came in. Honestly, I've had a much better pedi at the mall. I got the distinct feeling I was keeping someone from a lunch break. This feeling was confirmed when I was practically shoved out the door. No one asked if I enjoyed myself or wished to purchase anything. The door was pulled closed behind me and the closed sign flipped before I was to my car. Would I go back? Possibly for a massage. However I was so put off from the poor customer service that I'm hesitant. read more

Had a great couples massage last weekend! Extremely professional and worth every penny. The masseuses we're attentive, and customized the massages meeting all request! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to relax. They also do wonders for those with back issues. Will be returning soon! read more

I was in town for business and had time to kill, so I decided to get a manicure. This place was near where I was staying and there was a good review on here already. The front staff was very nice and helpful. I made an appointment for after lunch and returned. I ended up getting the spa manicure ($40) which is an acceptable price for me, but i think a bit too much for the area. The room was small with 2 manicure tables and 2 pedicure chairs squeezed in, but nicely decorated. The whole process was a bit rushed; I jumped a few times with the cuticle trim and the paraffin was still warm and gooey when she tried to peel it off. That left me picking it off in bits later on. The other MAJOR issue was the layers were painted on too soon after one another and there was no lamp to dry them. There was a ventilation fan built into the table, she had me wave my fingers over that to 'dry' them. She then 'helps' me to the front counter to pay and of course get my first smudge as I hand my wallet to the girl at the counter so she can take my card. (no i did not reach into my purse/pocket for it, i leave it out from the beginning so as to avoid smudges). Another smudge in the car led me straight to target to get supplies to take the ruined polish off and salvage the job. Before you think it... I wouldn't go back and ask for it to be fixed by someone who did such a poor job in the first place. I had high hopes for this place based on Darren's review. I suppose the other services could be better, but the set up leads me to believe otherwise. read more

I scheduled a couple's massage, and requested a man and a woman (2 different massage therapists). I scheduled my appointment 3 weeks in advance, for a weekend trip for my daughter and I. My appointment was initially scheduled for 11 30am. After scheduling, the spa called back, and said that they'd double booked the couples room, so they needed to move my appointment to 12 00pm. I obliged and took the later appointment . The day before the appointment, they confirmed that my daughter and I would be there. The day of the appointment, I've only got one full day in town, scheduled full of girl's day activities, before we wake up the next morning and go our separate ways. The spa calls and says that the therapist is sick, so they need to cancel the appointment... I'm thinking 'both therapists are sick?' Not saying it's not possible, but I suspect they overbooked themselves. I asked if they could recommend another spa. They said no. Almost ruined what was to be one of the highlights of our girls day trip... but the Body Shoppe Spa took us on same day, short notice. I'm ever so grateful! read more

I loved the experience here! I had an hour long massage and it was worth every penny. (It was also a bargain compared to Southern CA rates.) The massage itself was a full 60 minutes; they didn't deduct my bathroom or prep time from the total. Taylor/Tyler (female) did a fantastic job! I told her where my trouble spots were and why they were so bad. She really focused on those areas. I was so relaxed afterwards that it was hard to leave! There was great relaxing music playing and nice dim lighting. I'm allergic to many, many scents and didn't have any issues here. (There was nag champa burning though, which I like.) As an added bonus, they gave me a "happy hour" discount! I only wish I could go back :) read more

I've been seeing Lauren for years for her Shiatsu massage therapy. She is awesome for realignment work. Very perceptive and aware of your needs. I had been on my front for thirty minutes and rolled over with a stuffy head/nose into head clearing eucalyptus fog. Awesome!!! read more

I am a salon owner and this is definitely my (go to) place for massage. Tracy was very professional and gave a great deep tissue massage with the perfect pressure. I highly recommend this spa for all your spa needs! read more

I think Ava Bella is a nice option for people in the area who don't want to pay a fortune and still want a decent massage. The ambiance is not nearly as posh as some other area spas, but it is clean and pleasant. I've never disliked any services I've received here--and I've had plenty of massages, a facial, and a pedicure. They frequently run specials and stay open late, which is nice for people who work long hours. My favorite therapists are Tyler and Lauren. read more

I had booked an appointment for a spa pedicure before my baby shower. I had explained to the technician that I had chosen Ava Bella because I wanted to get a nice quiet pedicure without the intense smells of acrylic paint. She assured me all products were good for baby and me. She reminded me that she is a doula and not to worry. As she's saying this she starts pouring a lotion on my feet and says , " I hope you don't mind a bit of acid on your feet". I said is this safe for pregnancy ? Her answer was " it should be" and continued to tell me she wouldn't leave the chemical on long enough to go into my blood stream. Didn't know her product, nail polish lasted 3 days, and my feet were even more rough now than when we started. It was the most non relaxing, stressful pedicure I have ever had. read more

It's a nice spa. However, the menu of services provided by the spa are limited and haven't been updated in a while.

I have been a client of Ava Bella Day Spa since they opened 13 years ago, and a client of Dee Dee's five years prior to that. I had used other spa's services, but since finding Dee Dee (and her staff) I will not go anywhere else! I have used Ava Bella for facials, microdermabrasion, massage, manicures and pedicures. Everyone on the staff is professional and provides impeccable service. I have also given gift certificates to friends and family and they all had the same opinion as me, the experience was five star! read more

Worst massage I have ever received!! The therapist was very nice, but applied the pressure of a feather! I requested a DEEP TISSUE massage and that is what I was charged, but certainly did not receive. I even told her during massage to apply more pressure and the difference was negligible. Do NOT waste your time or money!!!!! read more

Great place. Excellent service. I bought a gift card for my wife for a massage and facial. She loved it. Would highly recommend Ava Bella Day Spa to anyone. read more
