When I arrived I was greeted by my masseuse and filled out the paperwork. I really enjoyed my massage. The pressure was perfect. Before we started Sheryl reiterated this experience is all about me and to make sure I let her know if I want her to go lighter or deeper. She asked where I was feeling pain to make sure she addressed it. The set up in the room has two beds. The beds are heated which I love. It was calming music in the background. Sheryl was very professional the entire time. She also gave me recommendations on how to help relieve some pressure in my back. I was pleasantly surprised by the warm towels at the end to wrap up the massage. I already booked another appointment. I truly feel like I had a touch of TLC!

The chairs are comfortable, and the staff is always friendly, professional, and welcoming. They genuinely seem to enjoy what they do--you can often hear them laughing and having a good time while still providing excellent service. The quality of their work is consistently great. I appreciate the bags that line the tubs to make it clean and safe for us. The staff also speaks English very well, along with other languages, which makes communication easy and is something I really appreciate. Another thing I love is that they usually accommodate walk-ins. I've never had to wait long, which is a huge plus. My only criticism is that on a few occasions I stopped in just to have my gel polish removed, but I was told I would need to pay for a full manicure even though I only wanted the removal. I wish they offered a standalone gel removal service for customers who don't need a manicure. I also think the prices are higher at this salon than others in the area. Overall, I highly recommend this salon. The excellent customer service, positive atmosphere, and quality of their work keep me coming back. Keep up the great work!

I needed a nail fixed, a full fill, and a gel pedicure, but I needed all of it at the same time and in the fastest time possible.

The Sanctuary Beach Resort is one of the most beautiful boutique hotels located in Marina,…read moreCalifornia along the Monterey Bay and Marina Beach. The hotel makes you feel super welcome the moment you walk in. We stayed in a bay front room with the the most incredible sunsets and sunrises. To get to your room they provide a shuttle from the parking lot right to your room. The rooms are new and modern with plenty of space and partially stocked. There is also room service if you want it. There is also a restaurant on the grounds but make a reservation. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained and really clean and they offer complimentary teas and coffees in the lobby. If you're planning a trip to the Monterey or Carmel area I would definitely recommend the Sanctuary Beach Resort.

I had this…read morehotel saved for a long time and booked it after seeing so many glowing reviews about the pet-friendly luxury experience. We paid around $1,000 for one night, so I arrived excited and expecting something special. Unfortunately, our experience was the opposite. Many of the pet-friendly touches that influenced me to book were missing at check-in. There was no personalized dog welcome setup, no dog package, and my dog's name was not on the welcome sign until I called later. I had also requested a simple welcome card for my mother-in-law's first trip to California, and although staff said they would gladly do it, it was never done. We also had multiple room issues throughout the stay. The TV was not working, the phone buttons to reach the front desk did not work, there was no extra pillow for the fold-out bed, and there was even a leftover dog chew from a previous guest found in the bed. To be fair, the maintenance employee was kind and helpful, and the complimentary bottle of wine was appreciated. However, for this price point, the lack of attention to detail and overall service was really disappointing. What upset me most was checkout. I politely explained that I was disappointed and thought at minimum the pet fee might be removed, but there was no effort to make things right beyond emailing the receipt. Beautiful location, but the experience did not match the cost or reputation. I truly wanted to love this stay and left sad and let down instead.
