The best Spa pedicure was excellently done by Tina as usual. I am relaxed and pampered. Tina always give the best massage. Thank you Tina.
The staff at Joy Nails is so friendly and kind. Tom did my pedicure and made sure that I was ok at each step. I’m in town visiting for work but if I ever come back, I know where to go.
My sisters and I walked into the salon at 6:30, feeling terrible for arriving so late. But our hotel check-in took a very long time and we didn't get to check-in until hours later. We planned to get our nails done before leaving on a cruise the next morning. These ladies (and the owner) were so welcoming even though…
Came here for my first pedicure in my life, I had Mr. T and he was awesome. Hot wax hot stone was awesome.
I was seen promptly, I was seated as soon as I walked in for me pedicure. My tech was friendly and carried a great conversation with me, and he did a great job on my manicure.
Excellent service. We came in without an appointment and were still seated quickly for pedicures. Kind and attentive staff.
Service is always great when we come to get pedicures. They treat their clients very well.
Can is the absolute best! My nails and toes always look amazing!
Great massage!!
My over all experience has always been AMAZING!!!!! Everyone is always respectful and patient. I’ve not been to another nail shop since I’ve started coming here. A major 10/10 experience!!!!!!!
Jasmin was great! It was pretty busy, but still helped me right away! Took their time and loved the color and environment! Since moving to the island this is my new nail place!

My daughter and I are in town, and thankfully found Joy Nails! It was a wonderful experience! Can did a perfect job on my nails - and the other gentlemen who did my daughter’s nails and the two ladies who did our pedicures were great. We plan to make this a tradition every summer when we come visit!
Comfortable, fast and great price!
