Tranquil Nail Spa - San Mateo (CA)

Maria Vasina I’ve been aaaaall over Burlingame trying to find a nail salon that I like and kept striking out. The criteria was simple: 1. I want quality. A place that will just do a good job and not skip out on the details. 2. I want service. A mani pedi isn’t event that cheap these days and I’d like to feel like I’m being pampered. I’d like the experience to never be painful and to never feel like I’m being rushed out. Pretty straightforward, right? Welp no, I’ve been to salons where they cut my cuticles so bad that they bled, salons where the staff was just straight up rude and salons where they just did a crappy job. Well no more. I’ve been to Aqua a few times now and it’s officially my go to place. The ladies here are so lovely, they always make me feel well taken care of, they sweat all the little details to make sure my nails look perfect. And somehow even though they’re super careful, they manage to be quick! On top of it all they have great customer service and are just so nice to be around.

P Jeffery Wow. Just had powder manicure with Kelly. They made me and my pup very welcome (he is very well behaved and does not bark!). So happy with service and the nails.

Jasmine Chand Sammy is the best to go to for any type of threading. i get my eyebrows done by her and she takes her time and has attention to detail. she is great and the other people i’ve gone to weren’t the best but sammy gets me right every single time. she is caring and does a fantastic job. my aunt and mom also go to her as well

Anita Mostasisa AMAZING!!! I have been getting my nails done forever and Sammi is by far the best!! She always does an amazing job & every time I bring an idea to her she is able to create the perfect design!! I highly recommend her.

Lupe Corona Just some of my most recent full sets. I love going here. This is my favorite spot in the entire Bay Area. I literally live in Oakland and make sure to still make my appts here. I am one of those people who comes in with a picture of what I want and they never fail me! Also the sets last FOREVER. Or at least a month in my experience with not one nail falling off. I kid you not I work at VS and use my nails to stab through tape and open boxes up. Durable, affordable for the bay, and amazing!!

janet oates We, hubs and I have been going to Starlight for years. They are very nice and we appreciate how they care for us old folks (we are in our 80s) As one ages our nails become thick, they never complain and do a good job. We love the extras on our feet, the foot and leg massages, the hot wax, it is such a luxury.

Monica Rios Services Rendered: Regular Mani and Pedi | Bikini Wax Very reasonably priced considering the fact that everything is highly expensive. I would return, I have found my new place and so close to Daly City / SF Border, right next to Starbucks and a cross the street from café. Who: Jennifer and Luna Space: Relaxing, recently renovated, music on point First time visiting, noticed no reviews, so figured I would give it a chance. As soon as I came in, I felt relaxed. Jennifer helped me pick the color I was looking for, something neutral, that wouldn’t blend with my skin, with a pink tone. Luna did great in preparing and doing mani. Jennifer was quick and great at feet, super fast. You could tell she was trying to help everyone and giving everyone attention. - Great customer service! Luna was very nice and assisted in everything to make mani easy and not ruin it. She also did the waxing, very quick and made sure comfortable. Everyone on staff pleasant. Luna did her best to perfect it, and I highly appreciate it. Highly encourage you all to go there, bc they won’t rush and they will be there for you. 5 star customer service.

Allison MacQueen Felder I got both of my childrens hair cut here. Both cuts look really nice and they did a very nice job straightening my daughters hair with a blow dry. She cant wait to come back. Friendly service and great prices!

Natalie Luu JJ is a new nail salon that has become my go-to in San Mateo. I love that they give a complimentary foot hot wax soak and calf massage for pedicures, and forearm and hand massage for manicures.

Judy Liberti Love this nail spa! Very clean, professional and friendly. My husband has thick, gnarly toenails and Chao does an amazing job on them. Shes far better than the podiatrists hes seen over the years. I highly recommend them!
