I've never once questioned the skill or professionalism of the stylists here--they truly know their craft. Over time, I've had the pleasure of working with a few different stylists, but I've finally found my stylist, and he works magic every single time I'm in his chair. The atmosphere at the salon feels like family. The owner (the mother) is one of the kindest people I've ever met, and her daughter, Olivia, is the aesthetician who takes care of my eyebrows. Olivia is not only incredibly talented and skilled, but she also takes the time to listen and make adjustments if I ever feel unsure about the color or darkness of my brows. She has a real gift for understanding what her clients truly want--even when we don't explain it perfectly. This salon is the full package: skilled professionals, a welcoming environment, and prices that are fair and absolutely worth it. I recommend Salon Gaboa hands down--if you're looking for a place that combines talent with genuine care, this is it.

I have to tell them that Ebe, my stylist, is no longer taking new clients. But, fear not, there are other stylists who do fabulous work! Give them a call and make an appointment to be pampered soon.

The owner suggested her as someone who knows how to work with long hair so I tried her seven months ago after a bad cut somewhere else with someone else left my hair uneven and grossly choppy. She helped me even it out dramatically but she suggested then we work on growing it out. So I did. I went back today for another cut and it is flawless. She's so good. After many, many years of searching for someone who can do a great job on my long hair, I am relieved to have really found that. The shampoo massage is worth the money I spend here alone.

My family raves about their services; but my experience exceeded my expectations still. Chelsea did my keratin and it was the best one I've ever gotten.

Keratin makes my hair manageable living in beach climates (and having really thick hair)! A simple blow dry looks styled and ready to go. Even air drying looks presentable. It feels strong and shiny I love it!! Not to mention Chelsea is so personable and fun to talk with. Victoria dyed and cut my hair from blonde to dark balayage! She did a fabulous job and I love how it turned out. She really has an eye for how to style. Their dyes are ammonia free and my hair felt soft and healthy even after all the colors. She too was so fun to be around and really had me laughing. All the ladies in the salon are professional, welcoming, and friendly! You're surrounded with smiles and good vibes and you can really tell they love what they do. Thank you!!

Stayed here over graduation weekend for my son's high school celebration and overall I'd rate it…read moreabout 3.5 stars. The hotel itself is beautiful and centrally located on Clearwater Beach with just a short walk across the street to the beach. We booked two suites , a 2 queen private rooftop terrace suite with a full kitchen and a poolside king suite with a kitchenette which were spacious and perfect for our large gathering. The rooftop terrace was definitely a highlight, and the hotel is within walking distance to restaurants, the pier, playgrounds, and shops. I also liked that the pool is on the 8th floor with a great view and access limited to hotel guests only. Pool chairs were very comfortable, towels were unlimited with no towel card system, and beach cabana/umbrella rentals were half off for guests. The hot tub being on the 16th floor separate from the pool didn't make much sense though. Room service was daily, and I appreciated being able to text the front desk instead of calling. I highly recommend using the text feature and keeping everything in writing because there were discrepancies regarding credits we were promised. There were unfortunately several maintenance and service issues during our stay. The living room TV constantly glitched and wouldn't sync properly even after maintenance attempted to fix it. More importantly, the AC completely stopped working in the rooftop terrace suite for hours while we hosted about 25 guests for the graduation party. Everyone was hot and sweaty in almost 100-degree indoor conditions. Thankfully the terrace breeze helped, but being offered only a $100 credit for such a major issue during a once-in-a-lifetime celebration felt insufficient! The parking garage situation was also frustrating. We were told our vehicles could enter and exit freely with the resort fee, but every time we tried leaving, the room keys and garage passes failed. We repeatedly went back to front desk to get new passes and had to pay $40 to exit then contact customer service afterward for refunds such a waste of vacation time Customer service overall was very hit or miss. Some employees were wonderful while others seemed miserable and unfriendly. The onsite coffee shop was particularly disappointing I'd recommend walking across the street from The front lobby to the real Starbucks instead. At times it felt like the hotel relies heavily on its excellent location and beach proximity rather than consistent service standards.Coming from previous stays at Sandpearl Resort, I personally would still choose Sandpearl for smaller family vacations. However, I will say this hotel offers more flexibility for large gatherings and easier garage access compared to Sandpearl's valet-only setup. That said, between the AC outage, power issues in BOTH suites floor 8 and 17, lukewarm water, TV problems, phone problems, garage charges, and inconsistent customer service, I would probably try another Clearwater Beach hotel next time. We still made wonderful graduation memories and the location, spacious suites, rooftop terrace, and beach convenience were definitely the highlights of our stay.

And not one spider or bug on that balcony the whole week we were there! Five stars just for that! All staff were very friendly, in fact I believe it was a manager that bought me and my husband drinks after we walked down 15 flights of stairs during a fire alarm. (I swear nobody else even heeded the alarm, we were the only one in the stairwell). We only ate breakfast in the main restaurant (which was good), but we did have room service a couple of times and enjoyed the rooftop bar, The Tropico, for food and drinks. (The kids menu burgers and fries was plenty for me!) All were good experiences. Hotel is in walking distance of so many restaurants, shops and of course, the pier. We only hung out on the beach one day with the loungers and cabana. I was a little disappointed that they weren't included in the stay. The cost was $30 per day. Otherwise I was content to hang out on the loungers at the pool. A store called Surf Style is just a couple of doors down that has besides clothing, your snacks, drinks and all the tourist goodies.

The lift & the tone of my blond is an icy perfection previous stylists could never achieve with Redken's line (plus no harsh chemicals). The tone looks exactly the same as when I left the salon after 2 weeks of washes, and the foils were placed so beautifully. She technically did a color correction on a bad bleach job for me and I almost happy-cried when I put my glasses on and saw what she did. My mom and sister see her, too, and she has helped my mom keep her hair looking full and beautiful in the face of hormonal hair loss with good products and some wizard-level shaping/layering. On top of that, she's a gem of a human being. Thank you Amber, you're my hair hero!
