Nanette is also very welcoming and warm. A friend and I went to her for facials while we were on vacation. And to say it was the best I've had is not an understatement. Nanette did an amazing job and my skin was glowing and smooth. My only complaint is that I'm several states away and can't see her on a regular basis. I strongly recommend Nanette and Simple Pleasures for a spa facial. You won't regret it.

She has such an incredible gift and is so intuitive. She somehow knew exactly where I needed the most work without me having to say much.

If you're looking for an incredible massage in the Pismo area, I can't recommend Molly at Bungalow Spa enough. She is truly magic.

My friend and I arrived and were excited- but the salon is dark and immediately we were separated into chairs were we could not see each other or talk. No offer of magazines- I don't believe there was music either. The stylists were very polite and very responsive via email in the scheduling. But again typically pay $40 - $50 for a blow out and it's worth it - the cost of a blow out at this salon does not mirror the experience or service you should receive.

There was no one at reception to check in so I stood in the foyer for a minute or so. One technician ( giving a pedicure) saw me but did not greet me. I decided to step into the restroom and when I came back into the foyer- still no acknowledgment that a new client had arrived. I finally addressed the young lady giving the pedi to ask " is there someone I should check in with?" 2 more staff members came out of the office into the foyer- still no greeting or even eye contact. ( Way to make someone feel welcome...not) The young lady giving the facial was ok. I tried to ask " what are you applying now?" a few times but got very short responses. Lastly- paid for 80 minute treatment but only got 70 minutes... if this was the only issue I would not gave said anything, but when combined with the rest of the average customer service, I was disappointed overall.

I visited this salon twice for acrylic nails and a pedicure. While the finished look was nice, I'm very disappointed with the condition of my natural nails afterward. After removing the acrylics, I now have "rings of fire" on all of my nails, which indicates they were over-filed. During one appointment, my cuticle was cut so deeply that it bled. My nails are now very sensitive, brittle, and damaged. I was also concerned about the cleanliness of the salon. During my second visit, I noticed the tools used on me were placed back into the same container as other "clean" tools instead of being properly separated for sterilization. That raised concerns about their sanitation practices. Although the final appearance of my nails looked good, I don't think the health of my natural nails or the sanitation standards were given enough attention.

I had a prenatal massage scheduled but unexpectedly went into labor the morning of my appointment…read more I called just a few hours after giving birth to let them know I couldn't make it, then spent the next 10 days calling four times to speak with the manager, only to receive an email reiterating the cancellation policy. I understand businesses need policies, but I was disappointed there was no effort to offer any reasonable accommodation--such as a future credit or discount--for a circumstance completely outside of my control. As a local customer, what disappointed me most wasn't the policy itself but the lack of compassion, communication, and customer service during such a significant life event. If you cater to late-term prenatal clients, it's worth considering a policy that recognizes spontaneous labor can happen. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this business based on how this situation was handled. Update: While the manager is standing by their cancellation policy, they acknowledged that late-term prenatal appointments are a unique circumstance and shared that they're reconsidering whether a separate policy should exist for situations like unexpected labor. They offered me a $120 spa credit as a goodwill gesture (with the original cost of my charged prenatal massage service being $240) I appreciate that they took the time to listen, reflect on my feedback, and make an effort to address my concerns. While I still believe there is room for improvement in how these situations are handled and the offer to make it right, I'm grateful my experience may help create a more compassionate approach for future prenatal clients.

I really wish I could say that everything about this place is perfect. I did get a facial that was…read morewonderful! My massage was scheduled for later that day, but we happen to be a witness to a very bad accident and so we stayed to need to help and call 911. Because of that, I missed my appointment. They were not willing to give me a credit or allow me to come some other day, and I lost the money for that massage. So that was disappointing. The other issue was that the staff of the masseurs and aestheticians are great. The front office staff, the ladies could be friendlier. She was very cold and rude, especially if you don't buy the products that they suggest. Very disappointed, and I drive up there from LA. Probably won't be making another trip.
