San Marco Spa and nails - Jacksonville, Florida

visited 2x.
2nd visit was great!!! went back reluctantly as a travel date was approaching. upon entry a tech was working on another client but pushed to service me. i decided to go with the tech who was available and ready to take me. She was AWESOME!!! Will return and request her!!! owner and techs communicate to keep the flow of service and convivence customer friendly. you have pay attn and request what you want!!!

1st visit made me not want to ever go back. tech was too pushy and unfriendly. as I relaxed in the massage chair slapped my leg repeatedly to put my foot back in the water, aggravatingly jostling me from a slight doze several times. asked her to stop slapping my foot and leg, but she didn't. a friendly tap would've been fine.
NOTE TO SELF. Try places twice if first visit wasn't to satisfaction to see if its the same experience. i usually dismiss places after one bad visit.

My almost 7 year old had her nails done here for the first time. She loved it! She was treated like a princess.

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. I got a mani pedi 3 days ago. Within 24 hours the gel on my left thumbs started peeling. I called to let them know I was coming to get it fixed, but that night the parking lot was completely packed and it was pouring rain, so I decided to leave and the peeling wasn’t that bad, so I’d be ok.

But the next day two other nails on my other hand began peeling. It is now day three and I need another manicure.

I want to start by saying I have frequented this spa for a long time now and every other time I’ve been there I’ve received work that has been high quality. This has been my only bad experience and I share this so that the nail technicians can be aware.

Two days ago I had a mani/pedi at the spa and the gel manicure I received was partially down my nails, making it look like I have a lot of outgrowth. Additionally, one of the nails is already peeling up. I did come in last thing of the day and I understand if the techs felt rushed because of that. I was really excited about the manicure and didn’t take a good look in the spa, which I should have so that they could fix the manicure.

Everything else about the experience was fabulous, though. My pedicure looks amazing and everyone was very very nice.

It’s important that techs starts the gel polish as far back on the nail as they can. It elevates the quality of the work. And it’s important to get every step of the nail preparation right so that there isn’t gel lifting within two days of being applied.

I look forward to returning in the future but I will be a little bit more discerning so that this doesn’t happen again. It’s disappointing.

Finally found this place for when I am here in Jacksonville. Wonderful place, easy to schedule and attention to detail. Thank you Emily for make the color I wanted with the glitz.

My pedicure was AMAZING! I appreciated the fact that she massaged calves and feet no less than 3 times during the deluxe pedi. Best $60 I ever spent! Will return when I'm down this way again.

Lida is my nail tech and she has never let me down. She does my nails quick with quality results. My polish never chips and my nails never break. I normally just get gel polish only on my nails and feet. They never over charge.

San Marco Spa and Nails is a gem! Their friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere, and complimentary beverages create a top-notch experience. They've even accommodated me on last-minute visits. Highly recommend!
