We called ahead and were promptly seated when we arrived. The staff were all super friendly, and paid an incredible amount of attention to detail on our pedicures. The price for everything we received was very very reasonable, and I appreciated that they took card and allowed us to add tip via card as well. My wife and I both left feeling very relaxed and our feet feeling brand new, and can't wait to make a trip back soon. Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area and need a pedicure, it's absolutely worth it!

Thank you Lina for a great experience on my first visit!!

Yen is my go-to nail tech and she's amazing and always gets my nails done within 30 minutes. I've never had any issues with her work. I've paid over $120 at other salons for Gel-X with designs, but here I usually spend around $50-$60. I switch it up depending on my mood: tip and dip, Gel-X with designs, cat eye, or gel and the pricing is always fair for the quality. Definitely try to go on a weekday during their happy hour specials for even better deals! Also, don't skip the pedicure especially the deluxe pedicure. It's such a nice treat. You get a 10-minute leg massage, hot wax treatment on your feet, and everything is cleaned off with a hot towel. Super relaxing and worth it. Great service, great prices, and consistent quality. Highly recommend!

She's been doing my nails regularly and is always super kind, professional, and genuinely pleasant to spend time with. I usually get gel builder, and Lynn is incredibly meticulous about shaping, balance, and getting the color perfectly clean and even. She's also helped me with fun styles like cat eye and chrome, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything looks just right. If you're looking for someone who really cares about the quality of her work and consistently delivers beautiful results, I can't recommend Lynn enough.

He asked me if it was the money or service I was upset about. I told him that I was upset at the service. I know the price and understood it was a service. I did let him know that I would still be going to visit my nail lady because I do love her work. So long as she is there I will continue to visit the location. I wish I had read the reviews from the person with her daughter. I went here because my nail lady started working here. I have followed her for over 10 years because she does the best pedicures! I took my daughter here to get her nails done for her Bday and promotions, she is 14. I called in to see if they could take her in at athe same time of my appointment for a full set of acrylic nails. They said yes to bring her. I arrived and reminded them it was for acrylic. I told the nail technician the same thing. She told him the same thing, I hear as she was near my seat and I even went over to see what design she had showed him. Somehow the guy that did her nails did Gel X nails. We did not ask for Gel X as we have that at home and can do that ourselves. Not sure it's was a language barrier but they did Gel x!!! My daughter said she didn't want me to cause a scene in the salon. She is also quite and shy so it doesn't surprise me that she didn't mention. So what I called I was very upset as they charged me $70 for her nails. They ask me why didn't my daughter say anything which I replied, She shouldn't have and it doesn't matter because I paid for the service and I had explicitly told them three times what we wanted, my daughter did too. At the end they did offer to take them off and put acrylic which I said absolutely not because they are fresh but of nails and if we do that it will ruin her nail bed. I did ask for my money back they said the owner would call me back I was adamant to get a response and then there because they had supposedly already alert at the owner. At the end they hung up on me I called back I thought it was a mistake turns out that they are blocking me according to the message from the salon. I am upset and I am expecting a call from the owner as per our conversation before they hung up on me. Very bad customer service and very bad attitude from some of these people. I love my nail lady, she apologized to me on a separate text and I apologize to her because I am upset, but I am so very upset at the salon not her. She did an amazing job on my pedicure as always.

I had made an appointment with Kim in advance but instead when I walked in, was given somebody else. Overall this place is great for pedicures- the orange pedicure was amazing. But if you're looking for nail art and precision for manicures, I'd say there are better options out there. Take a look at how my nails came out clumpy near the base and splotchy. Not to mention that I needed gel x for one of my nails and the guy angled the nail upwards so now it looks awkward compared to my other nails. I brought this up and he said it's because my nails are turned downwards? I'm not sure what he meant but I've gotten gel x plenty of times and never had any issues like this elsewhere. It's not the worst nail job I've had but it just missed the mark in terms of sloppiness for me. Don't think I'll be coming back unfortunately unless it's for a pedicure.

After multiple disappointing services at other salons in Orange County, I finally found a place that understands that being a nail tech is a craft and prioritizes healthy nails!!! I've been coming here for almost 2 years and I very much enjoy every appointment. Rachel and Cindy do my manicures and Grazziela does my pedicures. I appreciate them all. They use quality products. They have super clean sanitation practices. I always leave happy.

My very first appointment she talked about nail health and I honestly learned so much. I've been coming back ever since. I have NEVER not been completely satisfied with my nails and the experience. I look forward to coming in and catching up with Rachel and leaving with nails I can't stop staring at. She is an artist through and through and I love showing off her work to everyone I know. I get basic gel (or at least I think it is) and my nails always last - I go about 4 weeks between appointments. I've also gotten by nails done by Grazziela, another artist at Vacation Nail Collective. She too did an amazing job! I've been meaning to book a pedicure with her and have been eyeing her books. Just need to commit! The location is also super cute. There's parking either on the street, the lot behind the building, or a parking structure about a block away (don't worry it's free). If you park in the parking garage there is a very cute cat that lives in the nearby houses and it will likely come out and greet you if you walk by (10/10 experience). If you're hungry or thirsty after your appointment there are SO many good cafes and restaurants near by. Since the artists here are so talented, their books fill up fast, so book quickly! Enjoy your pretty nails and ignore how bad I am at nail pics.
