Manicure, pedicure and massage. IF your priority for a mani-pedi is the aesthetic environment then…read morethis is a solid five stars! The view cannot be beat; you look outward to the most gorgeous view of Gull Lake - stunning! However, if your priority is a quality service then skip the manicure for sure. My manicure did not last 4 hours before it started to chip. By 24 hours, I had only three fully intact nails with polish. The nail tech used Dazzle Dry, which peeled within hours. HOWEVER, I strongly suspect the peeling occurred because the nail tech did not have me wash my hands after applying oil. Also, my pedicure is going strong with the same Dazzle Dry color (no oil). I do not expect any nail polish could perform with oil being laid down as a foundation. Net, it began peeling immediately. I suspect the nail tech is new to the profession based on the oil error, haphazard filing and service length (my appt ran 30 mins long). On the positive side, she was absolutely lovely to converse with (5-star for friendliness!). In fact, she gave us many dining pointers that led to the best meal we had at Classic Grill. I was there for the experience, so I did not complain. BUT, my experience is worth sharing in case your priority is a great nail service; you will not find it at The Spa at Madden's (at least not with the 2024 nail tech). To add, I selected a topper for my toes, but the same nail tech ran out of time to apply it, so I was sent off without the desired topper, and my massage therapist provided an awkward public scolding for my service running long. Main/Pedi - Service = 0, Experience = 5, Total Score = 2. Deep tissue massage - I gave explicit instructions upfront for the massage therapist to spend the majority of the 90-minute service on my neck and back. She saved my back until the last 10-15 minutes. Also, the pressure was definitely not deep tissue. Service = 1, Experience = 3, Total Score = 2 As a visitor to Madden's Spa over 18 years I wanted to LOVE my "spa day", BUT it was an epic fail, especially given I paid nearly $600 for my services and a pedicure for my SO. Please do better next season, The Spa at Madden's. 2024 didn't live up to my past experiences and arguably wouldn't meet anyone's expectations. I want to return in 2025, but if there isn't a substantial improvement it will be my last visit to The Spa at Madden's. Thank you for listening to my feedback! I hope changes will be afoot for 2025. I really am a fan and want to see you succeed!

She explained everything very thoroughly, and proceeded to advise me toward a process called balayage instead of putting color/highlights in my hair. This is a technique used to bring out your natural highlights of your hair with very little damage to the hair. You did a fabulous job, and I have had many compliments on my hair. I have referred you to several of my friends/family members and will continue to do so in the future! Thank you for your guidance and support Joselyn. Highly recommend!
