Paradise Nails & Spa

I’m really happy with the service I always receive here. I’ve had multiple pedicures here and a few gel manicures. They take their time on the services and I really like the way they shape my fingernails. Last time I had a gel manicure, I chose a brand new color which ended up changing in the sunlight and getting a stained appearance. I called the following week and they got me in that day. Not only did my nail technician replace the gel color with a new one, but he re-​manicured and filed my nails free of charge. Really appreciated the attention, and the new manicure is looking excellent!
Would recommend this salon for the great service you receive here.

Sure my toes wound up looking fine, but for awhile there, I thought it was going to turn into a catastrophe.
First of all, I typically paint my nails in an assortment of colors and I wanted to do the HOT PINK, ORANGE & YELLOW motif, however, this place doesn’t have HOT ORANGE– like BLIND YOU orange. It only has UGLY PASTEL oranges, which just WILL NOT FLY. Ha!
You may all be thinking THANK GOODNESS they didn’t have orange because that sounds hideous, but I assure you, it’s cute… My nail technician even «cooed» over my previous nail colors prior to removing the polish.
I wound up choosing a DARK BLUE and a hot yellow… But was pretty un easy about that color choice. And even after my nail «pro» finished painting my toes, I wasn’t overly impressed until… I suggested we throw on a little sparkle! Now my toes look like the solar system, which I guess is pretty cool. That being said, my nail technician seemed to get a bit offended when I told her my nails needed a bit more pop. Whoa now, it has nothing to do with you, and everything to do with the nail polish. She even rudely made me get up and go pick the sparkle for my toes, even though I was half asleep on the chair and I told her exactly what I wanted.
Aside from that, my lady did an ok job… My favorite part was definitely the exfoliating scrub, but I can’t give her much of the credit for that… Hats off the the exfoliating beads in the scrub! ;)
My sister got her nails done as well and I think she was happy with the result however she told me the guy who focused on her toes beat the crap out of her feet. It’s not like she kicked him in the face when he was buffing her heels, so not sure why he decided to get angry at her feet.
My pedicure was $ 35… Was it worth that much, no, but oh well, I guess I really need to not compare prices to what I may find in LA, the land of $ 35 MANI PEDI combos!
At least I can call my toes: SPACE TOES!

Quest for a clean nail salon. Found it. It’s spa-​like inside with soft blue walls, simply decorated and efficient. No strong odor or constant chatter. Classical music plays in the background. Owner is on-​site working. Basic nail salon services offered plus facials. I saw a previous review regarding children being brought here – they are obviously creating a relaxing, spa-​like environment for their patrons to be pampered. It’s apparent when you walk in. I think at that point it is common courtesy to respect that since it is one large open space with facial rooms in the back. Serving both men and women. I will be back.

Rob did an amazing job on my stiletto nails! Wonderful customer service while getting my nails and pedi done.

Rob is amazing! I just came here from
NY and decided to try out this place. He did an incredible job. He was also very professional, hospitable and kind. Cute place and excellent customer service.

A small, clean, friendly spot tucked into a strip shopping center. I was able to get an appt almost immediately. They did my nails exactly as I wanted then and exactly how they do them at home. Hard to find a good spot for nails in Naples. Struck up a conversation with another customer and she said she tried 5 places before she found Paradise.

3.5 mani/​pedi, addt’l half-​star awarded for
massage chairs and having a salon dog. Prior to SarSar and Stevo moving to Naples, I previously thought that my hometown of Winnetka had the highest number of ways to get your gel on per capita. Wrong. That title, my friends and frenemies, belongs to Naples — and, as you may remember, I found last trip’s Passion Nails fine but not a hole-​in-​one, so I turned to Unilocal to locate another salon close to our pad… only to find at least EIGHT within a 1.5mi radius — so, let the games begin.
Season has started (Dec-​April), so I rec calling ahead for an appt (same day is fine) — rolled in at 1045a on a random weekday and there were several technicians polishing pinkie toes — and as a few of the ppl who tried just to come for a mani were told to return later, if time is of the essence, call ahead — strong selection of Essie and OPI, weighted towards pinks/​reds, but, don’t worry, I was able to hit glitter on mis dedos in a very real way — polish sampled seemed fresh.
Technicians are friendly, you can be as chatty or quiet as you’d like. My nails are still decent two days out — though length is kind of uneven and technique was a bit sloppy — however, as they look head and shoulders above what I can do to myself, which functionally resembles giving a 3y a crayon and letting him/​her/​zee run wild on my digits, it was worth the cash money.
In terms of the scene, chairs are all new and give lovely, vigorous rub-​downs — but the rest of the place could use a fresh coat of paint, it’s a bit dingy and the equipment may or may not be sterilized btwn ppl — oh goodness, and I almost neglected to mention that one of the lights on the UV dryer was out (quelle horreur) — and I didn’t think that the fans were as robust as they could have been. Walls plastered in large format murals of versions of beachy paradises. Sure. Why not?
For a standard mani/​pedi it’s $ 45, which seems to be abt average for the area — a deluxe mani/​pedi is $ 60 — unclear what this entails as my basic version was foot/​leg exfoliation, quick rub down w oil, finish with a hot towel, and the requisite cuticle work. For a basic mani/​pedi it took abt an hour, which is fine as I get bored after more than that — but could the massage have been longer? Obs. Overall, it’s a glorious luxury to get someone to do my nails, I know, but, for the money and if Unilocal is worth its salt, it appears you can get a better mani/​pedi a hop, skip, and a jump away.

They always do a great job. Friendly staff, quality work and the shop is always clean. I recommend them to anyone who asks for a great place for mani, pedi, or waxing needs !

I want to like this place because I did like the person that did my nails and he did a very good job. I can’t like this place because it’s just so dirty. I just wish they would clean a little especially the bathroom.

Chairs are great. I wished the workmanship matched :-((My girl could not match the length on any of my nails. She left them uneven and not smooth. I had to ask her two times to fix them. It took my wife TWO hours for Spa-​Pedi & Shellac! YES, 2 hours !!! That’s too much!
I think the 5 star reviews are fake… sadly… :-((
We are from out of state and we relied on Unilocal

Uyen was so great! She took her time and did a fantastic job. I got the Deluxe Mani/​Pedi combo. It was $ 60, but was really nice since it included a ton of spa extras. Uyen worked on me for about an hour and a half. She was so sweet and friendly and we talked the whole time! The place was busy, which is a good sign, and really nice and clean inside. I will definitely go back!

I always receive exceptional service by everyone when I come in there. Staff is very attentive always offer soda or wine. My nail tech Rob is great with pedicures and shellac manicures. He also did a great job on my squoval nail set. I’m extremely picky and he did a great job.

First time here but I love this place. what a great pedicure! Leg massage was out of this world! Excellent job on the toes too…
I didn’t have an appointment but they got me in ! :-)

Great gel manicure this afternoon! I pick my cuticles a lot so they always look like a mess and my nail tech took the time and detail to fix up my hands! The best manicure I had in naples so far! If you want a great manicure come here! I plan to go in for a pedicure soon!

I have been coming Paradise Nails and Spa for three years and have always been very happy with the treatment! Van is wonderful and nice to talk to. She does a great job with my feet and I leave feeling great! It is a nice way to start my vacation every time! They just did a refresh of the paint and décor and it looks great. Very comfortable environment. I highly recommend Paradise Nails and Spa to everyone.

I am so bummed because this place used to be a constant 5-​star for me! However, after my most recent mani/​pedis, I have left disappointed each time. (Maybe it all depends on which nail tech you are lucky, or unlucky, enough to get???)
Overall: Massage chairs are getting old and not all of them work as well as others. Pedis are decent, though I have had to prompt the tech each time to fix something. Manis — both standard and shellac — have been unpredictable at best. My recent shellac mani took WAY too long to do (I was there for almost 2 hrs!). Standard manis aren’t even worth the money — they haven’t soaked my nails prior to working on the cuticles, nor have I received a hand massage the last two times. Cuticles aren’t carefully trimmed, and polish is never well-​removed from edges of nails at finish. I can do a far better job at home.
Save your money and don’t get a mani. Pedi is worth it as long as you get one of the «good» chairs.

The only reason I didn’t give two starts was because the end product looks pretty good. However, it was the most half-​assed manicure I have ever gotten. Whenever I get a manicure, they always soak your hands in the little tubs of water. My manicurist completely skipped this. The cuticle cutting was also incomplete and not done throughly. Lotion was only quickly applied to my hands, no nice little massage involved. The manicurist was fairly rough and quick with every step involved.
This is the type of service I would expect from a groupon coupon for a manicure, not the number one search result for manicures on Unilocal.Save your money and pick another salon in Naples if you want a nice pleasant experience and not just a polish change.

They always do a great job on my gel polish nails and toes! Never a long wait, even walking in. All the nail technicians are very friendly and make an effort for conversation. Their price are high but average for the area. ($ 90 for gel polish manicure and pedicure). They have Amy choices for color and even did special ombré glitter for me once (which was fun trying to explain what I meant! LOL) This is just an upbeat neighborhood nail salon, always people in it but never wildly busy. They also have a punch card so be sure to grab one if you’re looking to be a repeat customer!

Worse manicure and pedicure ever. In addition, got there at 3:30 and they didn’t finish until 6pm. Lastly, 65.00??? Really??? My girlfriend got a shellac and pedicure and hers was 87.00.
This is the most I have ever spent and the worse pedicure ever!!!
Don’t use them or go to them!!!

Getting a manicure at Paradise Nails & Spa was a positive experience only in the fact that it reminded me of why I prefer to my nails myself. I could have done a much better job than what was done to my poor unfortunate nails at this salon.
While visiting my friend in Naples I wanted to get a manicure to get my nails ready for my upcoming wedding. I figured they would take care of my cuticles, buff and file to a nice shape and then I could upkeep in the weeks to follow. Oh how wrong was I.
Strike 1: the technician over zealously cut my cuticles to the point of making me bleed. He apologized. But blood at a nail salon? Where an infection isn’t far away? Seems like that should be avoided.
Strike 2: the age of the nail polishes used. I asked for a French manicure ($ 5 extra) and they use OPI (yay!). However, their OPI was so old it must have remembered the Reagan administration. There was a trail of threadlike polish that would trail the bottle with each stroke. The technician would wipe it away with each coat. Spend the $ 8 on a new bottle. Seriously.
Note: Actual manicure looked fine. My nails were pretty short so he did the best he could. The problem came 24 hours later:
Strike 3: the manicure began to chip horribly less than 36 hours after completion. I didn’t expect it to last weeks upon weeks like a gel, but I thought I would get at least 3 – 4 days for my $ 40. But no. The polish was so brittle the chips were horribly noticeable.
Which led me to try to remove it a few days later. Key word try.
Strike 4: you would think that if nail polish starts chipping, it would be easy to remove — since it was already coming off on its own. But no. I had to soak my nails in acetone like I had a strong coat of glitter nail polish. Total removal time took more than 20 minutes.
Moral of the story? Do your nails at home if you want to avoid #1, 2, 3 and 4. Or just avoid this salon.
