I always get excellent service here. Staff is extremely friendly and accepts walk ins. Very relaxing and quiet, which definitely is a must when receiving a massage. read more

Same day appointments! I recently sprained my back and was in desperate need of a massage after my pre-scheduled appointment from another place was cancelled. I heard of this place from my primary masseuse and gave them a call. They had 10 available masseuses on a Friday. I requested for a female masseuse. Lucy was my masseuse and she was friendly. I asked if she could focus on my back and spine, but she did a full body massage, which turned out great because I had a lot of tightness in my calves as well. I honestly didn't know what to expect. A green, thin towel on top of the massage bed was used to cover my body. I mistakenly went underneath the thin white sheet and Lucy had to adjust the cloth for me. I was a bit embarrassed. Towards the second half of the massage, Lucy used hot stones which was warm and unexpected. She asked if I was okay and was nice about it. I didn't ask her many questions. Maybe on my next visit. I felt a lot of the knots in my upper shoulders. For an hour massage at only $40, this is a great deal, especially for a last minute booking. The ambiance felt a little odd though. They don't have actual doors, just curtains for the full body massage. Conversations and footsteps can be heard from other rooms and the hallway. The customers that opted for leg massages are out in the open next to the front entrance and check in counter. I was able to pay tip to my masseuse with credit card despite their signage to pay tip in cash or Zelle. They charge an extra $2 for credit card payments. read more

Make an appointment to secure your time. $40 for full body massage. $50 for deep tissue for 1 hour, which isn't that bad. I opted for the Deep Tissue. TBH, it hurt! She was very strong! She was getting my knots on my upper back, neck, and legs. The next day, my upper back was extremely itchy. She did say something along the lines of it'll be red afterwards. The masseuse does do the entire time you opt for. read more

I've never had any issues getting a same day late afternoon appt. There is always a masseuse available. Everyone I've gotten has always been amazing. Today I went at 4pm for a 90 min massage. It was very warm inside when I went, likely because they were washing the white towels. When I got undressed and on the bed, I was a bit clammy for the first 5-10 mins but soon relaxed and was comfortable. I was concerned I might have to ask for a fan in the room lol. This was my first time in a while that I've gotten a female masseuse. I do tend to favor the men since they are much stronger and I'm not a squishy person lol. I've got layers that need to be penetrated LMAO! There were moments that felt like she was just "touching" and moving around IYKYK. Ultimately, I did appreciate her total pressure and massage style at the end because my body was so tight, it wouldn't handle getting roughed up well. I felt very relaxed and very loose after the massage and was very grateful in the end. She managed to read my mind in areas that needed slightly more kneading. I did notice they added new services. I'm assuming it's a recent addition to keep up with market trends. I have not tried them myself but I feel like if I wanted a Thai massage, I'd make the drive out to Thai Town in Hollywood/Korea Town to an actual Thai massage specialty place. read more

As my friend Lisa loves this place, we frequent this establishment for foot massages pretty regularly. I like the fact that they have ample parking in the back and you can enter from the back as well. I also appreciate that they are fully staffed. Meaning, you can make an appointment as a group. They have at least 12-14 cots and many masseuses. I think they do a pretty decent job of keeping their facilities clean, minus the restrooms. They are slightly pricier than other massage establishments in the neighborhood. However, they still have many patrons. There's a high probability because of their atmosphere, which is better than most Asian massage places. Meaning, the workers are not shouting, yelling and conversing throughout the entire massage. On the other hand, the massage is decent, but I wouldn't say I've had my best massages here. It's a hit or miss. So if you find any masseuses you like, make sure you get their name. read more

Received a great massage today with Lucy. It was my first time here. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the spa and the quality of the massage that I received. I will be back! read more

Your hardworking homegirl finally got the massage she has been needing since starting a new job. After long hours - both in terms of sitting in LA traffic and remote working on the work laptop - my back hurts. And after this 60 min full body hot stone massage my body is thanking me. Yes, they put the serenity in Serenity Spa. I was so relaxed and impressed by how thorough Lina, my masseuse, was. And can you believe the price was only $40?! Next time I will try the other massage options. Let me relax now... read more

Love this simple and yet calm space. The receptionist speaks English and it's easier to explain your needs. My mom loved going here for a chair massage with David. He is excellent! I get full body massage in room with oil with female massage therapist. I really like it and would go again. read more

Our go-to place when we are stressed and want to chill. Always a great experience, fantastic prices, they've been really consistent.

0 stars - Serious privacy concerns During my massage, the woman owner at the front desk repeatedly opened the curtains to the "private" massage room while I was undressed. At one point I lifted my head during the massage and saw her open the curtain again. As I was getting clothed at the end, she opened it again when I was butt naked, enough for the staff to see. I felt exposed and humiliated. She was standing outside my room as I was exiting and I confronted her and asked why she does that and she mentioned she does it REGULARLY!?!?! So when you're faced down just know you're being violated. Staff also sit right outside the curtain area talking and laughing, which made the environment feel anything but private or relaxing. Being exposed while you're undressed during a massage is completely unacceptable. Privacy should be the bare minimum in any massage setting. This place is low budget and anything but "serenity". On top of that, my massage ended about 5 minutes early. I also had to ask for a hot towel to remove the oil before leaving. Overall the experience felt unprofessional and uncomfortable and cheap. If you value privacy during a massage, I would strongly recommend going somewhere else. Do not support her business. She comes off nice but is 100% shady and unethical in her business practice. There are so many legit massage parlors just up the street. read more

I recommend earplugs or bring earphones. There is a shared room with 10 to 15 people. The foot massage was the best part.

Decided to try getting a foot massage here since they have good reviews. I made an appointment since I read it's always busy, but when I got there it was pretty empty. I went with the 60min foot massage and had a mediocre experience. I would recommend wearing a tank or tube top for women since you keep your clothes on and shorts or leggings you can pull up to your knees. The first portion of the foot massage you lay on your back while your feet soak, this was not a very comfortable position for me because I'm short. At other places I sit up while soaking my feet. The female masseuse then massaged my head, shoulders, and arms for 10min. Her movements were too fast and not relaxing. Next was the foot massage which was the same repetitive motions for 40min, too much oil and not enough pressure. The oil was cold too. At the end she stretched out my shoulders and back with a lot of force for 10min, I almost choked because she pressed down hard on my neck. It was a very strange massage. Overall I had high hopes for this place but left disappointed. Maybe I just got a bad masseuse. Also my massage was interrupted several times by an employee's phone ringing. read more

It was very nice. There's many rooms when you go inside, dimly lit. Clean. The rooms don't have doors and use curtains as covers which is very smart, I wasn't disrupted when they entered and exited for stuff like hot rocks. The masseuse was also very good, shes an older lady and was very gentle so it was easy to relax. I will say I did wish it was a little harder sometimes since it helps with my back pain but it's more preference than the actual skill, she's amazing! read more

My feelings for Serenity Spa are complicated Pros: - the massages themselves have been consistently great the last few years I've been coming here. - I like the atmosphere - dim light, soft relaxing music, clean. - Staff is usually always nice and they wear face masks. - They have great parking and clean bathrooms. I would definitely continue going to Serenity for massages. BUT... I have a hard time recommending this place because I don't think it would be everyone's cup of tea. Cons: - I usually get the massage in the open space and I'm aware I will hear noises... but, often, customers talk on their phones during massages. There was a man getting a massage in the open space and he answered his phone 3 times and spoke loudly. - when new customers come in, sometimes they will talk and laugh very loudly. - I even had an experience where a lady was watching YouTube without headphones during her own massage! - I feel like it can be frustrating when people don't care to keep voices down and turn off cellphones when other ppl are trying to relax and enjoy a massage. - I hope the owners can enforce a no phone policy or something bc it is rude and disruptive. So if you don't mind noises here and there, this place is awesome. If you feel like you will get annoyed, I would say look elsewhere! read more

I used to frequent this place prior to covid and finally went back yesterday on a whim. I opted for a foot massage and it was everything I had remembered. While the foot massage area was open with a number of other patrons, it was still relatively quiet. A little bit of pain followed by a whole lot of relief. I am so glad to be back. read more

This is my go to place for a massage. This time I got package b (30 min body and 60 min foot). I'm so impressed by the massage tonight by Lena. She gave consistent energy the entire massage. I was on cloud 9 and felt so lucky to have this experience. I'll be sure to request Lena again. Thank you! I have been paying cash but today I paid with credit card and tipped it cash. There is a $2 fee if you pay with credit cards. read more

Serenity Spa - Front - Massage Near Me - Monterey Park, California

This was one of the most uncomfortable and disturbing spa experiences I have ever had. I am a female client and was assigned a male masseuse ( short, bald guy, smoker- smelled his hands while he was working on my head). I was covered only by a towel, placing me in an inherently vulnerable position. During the massage, while he was working on my back, his groin area repeatedly made contact with my arms. I moved my arms multiple times to avoid this contact, yet it continued. At no point did he acknowledge or correct his positioning. When it came time to work further on my back, he asked me to remove my underwear. I clearly said no. Given the repeated boundary violations earlier in the session, this request felt highly inappropriate and alarming. Nothing about this massage felt professional, therapeutic, or safe. His technique, positioning, and behavior were intrusive and unacceptable. I left feeling violated rather than relaxed. This is not a minor complaint -- it is a serious failure in professionalism, client safety, and consent. Management should take this review seriously and investigate this employee's conduct. No client should ever feel this uncomfortable during a service that requires trust and vulnerability. Repeated complaints point to a serious problem--management is not taking necessary steps to safeguard their female clients read more

Love getting massages here! You really can't beat the value here. Disclaimer that this isn't a traditional spa experience that is super quiet and tranquil, but I always leave feeling relaxed. read more

This is my go-to massage place after trying several in the SGV area. Lina is very thorough and the pressure was consistent throughout the 60 minute massage, considering I requested "hard". My boyfriend enjoyed his massage with Jason as well. He definitely kneaded the knots on shoulders and lower back. Prices are reasonable and the area is very clean. Ample street parking or the empty lot across the street. read more

Angel was amazing! Hands down the best massage I've ever had in my life. She really got all of my knots out.

I usually get the hot stone full body massage. I recommend this location because it's clean and comfortable. Very relaxing as soon as you arrive and it doesn't break the bank. read more

This is my go to spot and I think the prices are fairly reasonable compared to other places. It's not a fancy spa (if that's what you're looking for) but once you find a good masseuse, remember their name and ask for them every time. read more

This is one of the best and most consistent spas that delivers quality service every time. For the most part, they are very on it when it comes to making sure that you get a proper massage as well as being very affordable on the pocketbook. The overall vibe is spectacular at this spot. They are so professional and it makes you feel so relaxed every time you hang out at Serenity :) read more

Lina gave me the 1 hour foot massage and she did a great job. I do have to ask for her to go softer but she listened and made me feel very relaxed. I love this place and tell all my friends about it cause you will leave feeling relaxed and some pains better. read more

I tried the $40 foot and body and $40 body massage for 1 hour . I like that price is reasonable and it's clean. I loved the massage - it's relaxing and good pressure - not too gentle , not too hard. Just right . I will definitely go here again. Parking is easy in the street. They offer many different massage services. read more

I called few hours before getting there to reserve a spot on a Saturday. My friend and I did one hour foot massage and 30mins body massage for $50 plus tips. Overall we really enjoyed our massage but I should've asked the lady to go a little harder for my foot. It was almost like a foot scrub but I will come back. Parking: Street Cleanness: Good Price: Fair. Bring cash or they will charge a fee. read more

Came by the other day for a foot massage and it was a phenomenal experience, reminding me of Asia. Called ahead and my therapist was available at the scheduled time. Parking was available on the street. The massage parlor appears to have a rear entrance as well. There is a good collection of foot massage ottomans, some in clusters of 3, in addition to individual ottomans. The $30 one hour foot massage started off with a very warm foot bath, and it was excellent. The therapist was wearing a mask covering the mouth and nose and started pressing all of the pressure points on my head. The therapist moved on to a massage of the arms and hands before blowing into a pair of used nitrile gloves for the foot massage. The foot massage was decent with the therapist hitting numerous pressure points and ended with the therapist wiping down my feet while wearing gloves. The last portion of the "foot massage" was a back massage without oil. The therapist was very strong using his fingers to really dig down and get all of the knots out! read more

Oh I hate to do this.... I hate writing positive reviews for services, because I always fear I will never an appointment with my favorite person. But here goes anyway. - - - - - - - - Last year, my body was severely aching and I wanted to find a reasonable place for a foot massage. I did go through Yelp (of course). I was looking for a place that did not look like a brothel and Serenity Spa was the closest. If you look across the street at their competitor, you know action is taking place there. Sorry for digressing. - - - - - - - - When I got in, I noticed the prices were ridiculously reasonable! There were the typical reclining seats found in most foot massage places.... BUT damn these seats were wide. My big butt fit comfortably in them and there was ample (and I do mean ample) space on both sides of my cheeks. This place did not look like or feel as if illegal money exchanges for coitus was taking place at all. Serenity Spa is 200% legit! So if you are worried that the cops are going to come raid this place... don't. Serenity Spa runs a tight ship! - - - - - - - - - I went for the 90 minute foot massage. The receptionist asked if I wanted a man or woman. I chose man and I got John. Holy doo doos folks! Holy doo doos! John is da bestest! After 90 minutes.... Oh my gosh, my legs felt lighter. The pain in my lower back and left leg (I was in a big car accident that screwed up my left side) were gone. I felt 200% new. Please know that they do wipe down your legs with a hot towel to get as much of the oil off you as possible. But oh my gosh.... John hands down... praise Jesus, Mary, Joseph, Confucius, Buddha, Allah, Brahma, and the 八百万の神々!! John is amazing and professional. I come back as often as I can just to have him help me heal. - - - - - - - - After that one experience, I try to make it out here on my monthly trips to Los Angeles (I am from SD). I always ask for John, even if I have to wait. So... the main question is... would I return to Serenity Spa? The answer is 1,000,000% yes. Yes! YEs!! YES!! Ok... so please don't take up all the appointment slots people (granted I only come once a month). Please don't start making appointments with just John. There are others there: male and female. I gave out my secret foot massage place. I gave out my secret masseur. Sigh.... Go at it folks.... enjoy! read more

Serenity Spa - Prices as of February 2023. - Massage Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Was greeted great.Great place , great prices, good entertainment definitely recommend.

I have been to a few massage places around this neighborhood including the one across the road, and was pleasantly surprised by the two massages I've had here. I don't know the name of the gentleman who gave me a combo body and foot massage but without my even having to tell him where I was experiencing aches and pains, he knew where to focus. He seemed to know exactly what my problem was and what he was doing. I felt pain-free afterwards! Recommended! *bring cash. read more

Called ahead to make an appointment to make sure they found me the right person for my deep tissue massage. I had Mike and he was able to get all my knots out. The pressure was just right and asked to make sure I was ok. After the deep tissue, he massaged my back, legs, and feet with oil. I had a brief back body scrub and hot stone massage. He asked if the stones were ok, it was a bit hot for my sensitive skin so he cooled off the stones and proceeded. Overall, the deep tissue massage for $50 and the little extra services was worth it. I'd definitely be back! read more
