do you remember a really old skit that went viral years ago with the girl (angela's johnson) imitating the lady at the nail salon? The one where she was judged for getting short nails? Yeah that's me. Well, this is exactly what you're gonna get at this location. And I love it. i was recommended this place by a friend. there were some off putting reviews, but i gave it a try. the space reminds me of caesar's palace in las vegas, with the cloud ceiling and pillars. i was told to see tina, upon arrival- the owner tiffany, who was excepting walked me over to the pedicure area they had ready. to speed things up- tina did my pedi and tiffany did my mani. they were both really nice- the perfect amount of engagement and attentiveness, but still gave me time to myself. tiffany was so sweet- she custom made a color for me with bubbly bath mixed with funny bunny to give me exactly what i wanted- without me having to ask. tina would check in, to make sure the color was right, to go back for cuticles, asked to check for ingrowns, etc. i normally get russian mani/pedis, but this was a great substitute- i got gel mani/pedis- they paid a lot of attention to my cuticles, listened to what shape i wanted, took their time and was v neat. I highly recommend you give this a place to try . read more

Avalon Nail Spa - it's giving caesar's palace i kinda love it - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

These people people rip off my young daughter, over charging her for a pedi.. bad service. We will never be going there again.

I have to say I used to go to La vie all the time growing up adore the owners such sweet people; however today I went to Avalon I left before I even got my nails finished bc the guy cut me multiple times and sliced my finger he was not gentle at all & i pulled away multiple times i was in pain w this deep cut i almost cried actually. Left before finishing my french tips & was charged $65 even though i couldn't even enjoy the experience & a basic gel full set is listed at $55 on the website. I just am in distraught w my cut and how painful the experience was. read more

Very bad work, my daughter has her high school dance today, and she was sad about the bad job 5/09/2026

I rarely take time to write bad reviews, but the pain I'm in definitely warrants it. I am a LOYALIST to Lavender nail spa, hieu has done my nails for years... but I went one time to Avalon, and their massage chairs got me good! So I've gone a few times recently for my pedicures. The visit before last, I paid extra for a neck massage which I only remembered hours after I got home I hadn't received. Oh well, my bad. I went this last visit with my boyfriend for a pedicure, mentioned it hoping to have them give me the massage this time - NOPE. Then we decided to do various face waxing as well, we both wanted our nose waxed. The woman takes me in the back and proceeds to pull the wax with what seemed like a c-fold paper towel. Odd, didn't think anything of it though. Until I walk out and see my boyfriend with the swabs up his nose (what I expected) done by who I think is the owner. I immediately started feeling a throbbing burning in my nose, told the owner and she gave me a soothing salve, which did not help. She apologized for the other woman when I explained her method... fine. Came home and immediately shoved ice cubes in my nostrils. Cut to two days later, my nostrils are both scabbed over, super painful and draining puss. Moral of the story- the man that did my pedicure was awesome, the massage chairs are DIVINE but under no circumstances should you get any kind of waxing from anyone but the owner. read more

Service was horrible I wanted regular black coffin French tip!!! The lady who did my pedicure didn't even use q clean set of nail clippers just sprayed with alcohol and my nails were horrible shape wise and tips so I requested to get them fixed the lady went off talking to her other colleagues and refused to fix them! I requested a refund the following day because I was NOT going to have them mess with "fixing" my nails didn't have the time not energy to deal with them and they refused to refund me ! It's ridiculous !!!!! Will NEVER EVER go or recommend this place ever !!!!!! Now my bank is trying to despute the charge and they aren't allowing it. My daughter got gel nails and they chipped and fell off in less than a week !!! Horrible quality too! read more

Avalon Nail Spa - DO NOT RECOMMEND !!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

Prices are high but this is a beautiful and clean salon and I've been going for a few years. Sonny is an excellent technician. I will not be returning because the woman who answers the phone is rude and embarrassed me in front of other customers when she disputed what I said what I was told about whether to come in. She has no clue about customer service. I did not feel welcome here anymore and so I will not be returning. read more

Should've listened to the bad reviews, but I still gave this place a chance. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. The nail shape was uneven, and the polish had visible patches. At first, the tech insisted they didn't have milky white, even though it's a super common shade. But when I didn't like the color she used, she suddenly "found" it, claiming it had just been delivered. Felt more like she didn't want to grab it in the first place. She also kept making comments about how bad my previous nails looked, which was unnecessary and untrue, they actually looked better than what I left with. Definitely learned my lesson, next time I'll trust the reviews. read more

I have gone here a few times and only had one negative experience. Today David did my set and he did a wonderful job. I got a full set with French tips and I got exactly what I had asked for. I did wish to get a darker color but that is no sweat. I usually like to choose more than one color and this French looks great, I'm happy with what how they turned out! read more

Thank you so much to Julie! I had my nails done at another salon yesterday, and they were horrible. Let alone ugly, but they were also not shaped and wider than my actual nail. I was referred to Avalon and will never go anywhere else! Julie took the time to listen to what I wanted, and fixed my nails perfectly. And checked in the entire time to make sure they were to my liking. I am forever grateful, thank you so much! read more

I was a little hesitant about getting a mani/pedi from this place because of the reviews but I decided to get the experience anyway because a friend treated me and some friends to the mani/pedi. The salon is very inviting and clean. The service on the other hand was the worse I've had for a mani/pedi. The lady was nice and made sure I was comfortable but did not provide good service. My pedicure soak was longer than the time it took the lady to clean my cuticles, trim down toenails, clean away dead skin and calluses. I felt bad that my girlfriend spent so much on the services we got. I always get a mani/gel pedicure and told the lady to just put plain, clear polish. What was spent on a classic pedicure and Avalon manicure was not worth it. I would never recommend this place to first timers or anybody at the matter. The 1-star reviews are valid. Don't waste your money on this place. read more

PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE! I had one good experience here a long time ago with an older woman, so when my gel polish started lifting while I was home for thanksgiving, I went here to have it removed/get a manicure. First red flag was that a dremel was used to remove the gel polish completely. Not to remove the top layer. No acetone was used at all. I thought well, at least that is over. THEN, a dremel came out again with an even rougher bit to INTENTIONALLY ROUGH UP the surface of my nails. I assume this was to "make the gel stick". Horribly damaging to the nails and unpleasant feeling. My nails were also filed with a very gritty file in every direction, including up and down. I left with nails that had rough edges and caught on everything and today (the next day) some have even had bits of the actual nail break off. The nails did look fine when I first left, so if you are okay with damaging your natural nails, it might be fine for you. read more

Do NOT come here & waste your money! This is my 3rd bad experience coming to this nail salon out of 3 times. Every experience has been terrible. I decided to give this place one last shot yesterday for convenience as it was in the same parking lot I was shopping in & I really regret it. I'm in so much pain (as you can see from the photos & video- my toes are all red, inflamed, & have dried blood/ crusted pus). The lady was trimming my nails & taking out ingrown toe nails on my big toes. She was hurting me as she was doing it & even noticed my discomfort. I clenched a few times as I was gripping my chair & said ahhh owww! I feel like she was exceptionally rough even though she could clearly see she was hurting me. My nails kept bleeding even after she painted them & now they look like this now a little more than 24 hours later. I came in about a month & ago half ago with my 8 month old son at the time. He's a very easy going , happy baby, but anyway, I paid for a gel pedicure & they so rudely rushed me out of there. I'm a busy mom of 3 under 2 & look forward to getting a pedicure (mostly getting my feet rubbed) & I kid you not the lady did one stroke on each foot & that was it. Then I didn't even get a warm towel on my legs, instead I got a cold one. I was highly disappointed! Please do yourself a favor & go elsewhere! I will never be going back here again. read more

Avalon Nail Spa - Manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

Paid $70 for a full set of acrylic no add ons. Had a couple finger with acrylic nails still on that needed removing. She cut my pinky twice. And my hands feel burnt. The woman who worked on my nails was nice and stayed not to worry she could help me. She place my fingers in a water bag. For soaking. However a day later. My skin is peeling ( sorry no extra pictures) I have used a coconut oil 4 times to add moister my hand. ) I kept letting her know it smelled bad and she said don't worry don't worry. She cut my pinky twice once with the drill. And another with acrylic that landed on the cut and she used sissies to yank it off. I just wanted to get done and out. I feel so bad and uncomfortable because I suggested it hurt. She said No. I suggested to be gentle she said Ok Honey. She didn't add oil to my cuticles and I noticed other people got lotion on their hands with a massage. I was not offered that. Sad. read more

From the moment we walked in the women there were rude. I could tell they were talking about me. I asked them point blank what they were talking about. They said the expensive handbag I was carrying. I think the only reason she fessed up was because she was shocked that I had confronted her. The other nail tech was super rude to my bff who couldn't figure out the massage buttons. Telling her to stop touching it and scolding her. The pedi was less than good. I'd call it a foot wash with polish put on with less than precision. I had a under color I wanted with a glitter as a 2nd coat. She didn't do it and when I pointed out she didn't put on the glitter she let out a huge breath of disgust that I wanted the glitter. I'd go elsewhere read more

Got a mani and pedi here last Wednesday... today (Tuesday) my index fingernail chipped so I stopped by around 5:30pm and the place was dead so all the ladies were asking to help me.. but after that, it all goes down hill. See the pictures for reference: - They got my color wrong - Shape of my nail wrong - Left tons of glue under and didn't finish filing under the nail All together just butched my nail job.. I knew when I didn't see my normal lady today I should've just walked out.... the person who did help me clearly was blind and I'll make sure to never go to her again. read more

COME HERE!! Definitely one of the best nail spots I've ever been to. Came up to Napa for my besties bday weekend and stumbled upon this place on Yelp. We walked in and were seen within 5 mins. I got a dip mani and my friend got a deal mani/pedi. My experience with Vi was AMAZING. When she found out we were there for my besties bday, she gave us both glasses of champagne which was soooo sweet. I originally was going to get gel, but she convinced me to get dip to help the health of my nails (which I'm happy I got!!). We had great conversation, and she would include me into the conversation with the other nail techs. She made me feel extremely pampered and it was overall a great experience. What I love most is that she took her time with my nails and made sure I really liked what was happening at every step. Will definitely come back anytime I'm in Napa! (: So here's an update! It's been 9 days since and my nails or my friends nails are not holding up. I'm all about being honest, so people who come across my review know. The customer service was amazing, but her gel and my dip did not last. Her gel was cracked and chipping within a few days. My dip has been chipping off after a few days as well, and I'm surprised because I was told it doesn't chip and lasts longer than gel. A bit disappointed with how our nails didn't last. read more

The chair massaging includes your LEGS! *Covid safe and clean. Perfect for bachelorette & bridal parties, little girl parties and of course GIRLS DAY ! Excellent Saturday. read more

***EDIT JUNE 1*** Avalon reached out and offered a complimentary correction. Unfortunately I do not live in Napa, so this resolution does not work for me. However, since they did take the time to try and make it right, I added another star. __________ My daughter and I visited on May 28 for mani-pedi. The salon is beautiful, everyone is super sweet, and they took us as walk-ins. They also don't do the hard upsell which is great; last thing you want is pressure to buy when you're already spending $100+ trying to have a relaxing experience. My daughter's mani-pedi turned out great. Mine? Not so much...well, the pedi was ok, but the mani is a hot mess. Yes, my hands were a mess when I arrived, but I was there to make them look nice. They do not appear to be a fresh manicure. Pic is of that mani less than 25 hours later. Totally unacceptable and disappointing considering I am in a wedding this weekend and now I just have to go with it. I'm not saying the entire place is a waste of money. Just saying that you gotta watch what the nail tech is doing so that they don't eff up the job. I shouldn't have to babysit and micromanage someone who is literally licensed (or is she?) to preform a service. read more

Avalon Nail Spa - HOT MESS - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

Charged me 50$ for a "mani pedi" for a 3 year old when their other location only charges me $20. She charged me for stickers and design that I didn't ask for ( nor did my 3 year old) and they were peeled off by the time we got in the car. When I questioned the manager about the price she said that's just what they charge. Horrible service from the manager. read more

Came home to Napa for a friend's bachelorette weekend and decided to try this place out to get our nails done. The service was great. My nail person did a gel pedicure and dip manicure. I was happy the colors for both matched the place I usually go to can never match dip With the gel. I also got a pretty good massage. The people who work there are very kind and the place was pretty clean inside. It was a little pricey I usually pay about $75 for a mani pedi and I paid over a $100 here but my nails look great!! read more

The original lady who was going to do my nails didn't do them someone else did, I showed the picture, they look nothing alike. The nail she put on is really thick and bulky I wanted a square long shape I didn't want thick square I wanted the heart to be on the opposite side everything was just wrong and she still charged me $120 for nothing that I wanted. I want my money back!!! read more

COVID ALERT So I hate to post this because I've been going here since they've reopened after covid restrictions were lifted. They were always nice and accommodating until today. The girl who started my pedicure has covid n was coughing n sneezing and no mask on. When I finally said something she got pissed n her manager FINALLY made her wear a mask. And she didn't want to service me anymore. Boo I'm glad you stepped away. Bye Felicia. The lady who replaced her clearly didn't want to be bothered. She was rude too. The guy who did my nails got mad n rude when I didn't want powder. I've been going here for a yr. Check my venmo. I've never experienced such bad experience until I came across this trio. Unfortunately this was my last visit. Napa has a ton of salons, I'll find a new one. I will miss the rest of the technicians because when I had a split nail they took care of me. Sad because I really liked that place but don't disrespect me! read more

Terrible nail salon. I rarely write reviews. The ladies doing my mani/pedi were more interested in chatting with each other than paying attention to my service and offering a quality experience.

The massage chair is the best thing about this place. Don't let the furnishing fool you these people were rude. The customer service was horrible!

Here's a pic make up your mind from there. Also no lotion on my hands or even for my pedicure, no leg massage at all either, horrible. I'm giving a two star but only because the massage chair was pretty nice. This is after two of them tried to fix it. read more

Avalon Nail Spa - After I finally got them to try fixing it. - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

This has been my go-to spot for years, basically since they opened! Everyone is very friendly, I absolutely love the bomb.com pedicures, and they do great dip powder. Sometimes I bring in my own dips, sometimes I use theirs, but I never have any lifting and a set will easily last me 3 to 4 weeks with no chips. Really the only reason to go back and get a new set is for the change of color and because my nails have grown out! While lots of places offer dip, they're not necessarily good at it...V and David at Avalon are the best I have found in town and I'll never go anywhere else. For an amazing pedicure, Tina and Maya are incredible. Bonus: during the summer and on some weekends and busier days they may even have the margarita machine on! read more

My fiancé calls them "launch ramp nails" uugghhh they're so bad.. I feel bad I really didn't want to do this but... I'm gonna leave the shit talking out of it, and just give the facts so you guys can judge for yourself.. they're super uneven and LUMPY. I asked for almond shape, they are SO round. Most are lopsided, leaning to the left or right.. honestly looks like my toddler did them. I even told the woman that the tips were facing up, and she told me "doesn't matter!" ......... Um ok.... It matters to me! Honestly they're so bad. The women were SO rude. The pedicure was awful too and I even paid extra for the deluxe pedicure. But who cares that pedicures not stuck on my hands for the next two weeks if you're gonna get dip nails with a tip, don't do it here! Unless you like launch ramp nails ‍ read more
