For my first experience going to Bella on the Bay, it was great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I had a massage and a facial. Alayna did the facial and tinted my eyebrows. Jeana gave me my massage. It was a great experience with both ladies. I would definitely come back. Linda

Had a 90 minute Signature massage from Molly today July 24. I have chronic hip, leg and lower back pain due to arthritic hips. Molly's massage was amazing as I had no pain during the massage which I did not believe was possible. I will definitely be a long term customer. The rest of the Bella staff is wonderful too.

Both the massage and the facial were amazing. There were two issues that I ran into. The facial started 15 minutes late. She did give me the entire time that I had paid for, but it was still later than I anticipated. I also had a gift card that apparently expired even though the email never said that there was an…

I should have done a longer massage! I felt like goo after in the best way! Everyone was so kind. I was offered beverages upon arrival and after the hour long massage.
