Sakura Nail Spa, Gainesville FL

Pedicure was 5 stars for the money. Not spa like at all since they were playing kiss105.3. I requested a receipt but since I had paid cash they refused to create one for me. The place has potential but they don't seem to care much. Badly decorated. Definitely not a spa like thier name advertised.

EDIT (4 years later) : After years of coming here, I won't be returning. Service used to be wonderful, but has significantly gotten worse in the past year or so. Seems they are cutting corners on everything, and it's not even been busy every time I've gone. They've also become dishonest with $$ and tried to charge me for a service I paid for. Would not recommend at all.

I had a great time at Sakura! Julie was a wonderful tech, very friendly! The place was very clean and my nails turned out very nice. Great prices for great services. Highly recommend!

I used to come to this location regularly about 4 years ago and have missed it dearly. Out of all nail salons I have ever been to in Florida, Sakura Nail Spa has been my favorite. The regular pedicure is great, but the deluxe is worth it too! Michael gives great massages. My toes always look great and I feel relaxed when I leave!

I got a full set within a week they are off and my finger is infected bad and the worker lady refused service because it’s was past 3 days and said I give no refund it says there

Mind you,   I'm pregnant & a little more biased as I am a licensed cosmetologist.
I went in with powder french-dipped nails, asked for them to be soaked off & redone, and for an upgraded pedicure.my tech was an older lady with short, choppy hair.the pedicure was standard.she cut into the corners of my big toe too deep.the massage was rushed but she had good pressure. I requested the hot stone and paraffin upgrade.because she was rushing, she burnt the skin on my inner calf. I told her it was too hot and she just kept going.
I understand there was a language barrier, but this was where I started to feel uneasy.
I told her I wanted to keep my length and my natural nail, that I wanted French dip with solid glitter accent nails.she removed my prior set by prying them off with an acrylic tip after I specifically asked for them to be soaked off. I spoke up when she started cutting them and she reassured me she was just "evening them out"
I told her to keep them long and she said she was going to make them have tips. I said no, I don't want false tips, I just want white tips.at this point another tech spoke up and said she would do sculpted tips like we had consulted. I said no, that's not what I asked for.long story short, my nails ended up flush with my nail bed, she filed into my nail bed to give them some semblance of a shape and she cut into my nail bed on 7 of my nails.when I went to pay I was just so upset with everything, I swiped my card & walked out.

I sat in the car and called back up there and explained my issue and she said come back, we'll fix it.i told her no,   they were too short and she had compromised my nail bed.there were open cuts & they would have to grow out and heal first before I could undergo any other services. I really wanted a partial refund & she said come back in a week but not on the weekend.well FF a week later and Hurricane Elsa was here & she told me it had been too long and I needed a fill and she would only do 3 repairs of the 7 injured nails.we went back and forth and I asked if I could just get my money back, and she refused, so consumer beware.

Michael was great! My toes really needed some TLC after a camping trip, and he got rid of a lot of dead skin that was difficult to deal with. They used stones for the massage, and that was my first time. They were kind of hot on the bottom of my feet, but on my legs and top of feet it felt GREAT. I'd go back. Only $27 for a basic pedicure.

Worse experience ever, my daughter nails looks like she did them and trust to charge $65 for gel toes and hands.the mother in there (Owner) is the worse with attitude and service.

Sooooooo worth the price. They offer a wide variety of services. In my humble opinion, they give the best pedicures. Some of the packages comes with a complimentary water, soda or glass of wine.

I love the attention I get the whole experience very nice and friendly plus I come home with beautiful nails and toenails

Would definitely recommend this nail salon! My mother and I went a week ago for a basic mani/pedi. We paid $40 each, and the basic still included a nice massage and lotion! Overall a great experience! Wonderful quality service! And our nails looked outstanding! Michael and Julie were very courteous and accommodating, and we will definitely be going back!
