Like Heaven

A few days ago my husband and I, we were celebrating our 3rd anniversary. We received a gift certificate for body scrub and body massage for both of us, and that was amazing experience. My husband and I, we were having scrub and massage in same room, there were fresh flowers around, soft music... The treatment was really refreshing and relaxing and we had wonderful time there. The stuff was very friendly and professional and they made us feel very comfortable. Already looking forward for our next appointment.

A HUGE Disappointment

My daughter and I went to Faina last week to celebrate a momentous occasion for her and to enable her to unwind from a long and arduous academic and professional schedule. What she needed, above all else, was a totally relaxing spa immersion experience. Our time there was anything but relaxing. There is no way that a spa should be set up physically like this one is. The acoustics are terrible; the music has to be turned up to an extremely high volume in order to drown out the unprofessional noise from the hall, reception area, and adjoining treatment rooms. The owner hovers and feels free to open the doors to the treatment rooms to speak to her staff mid-treatment. Between treatments, clients are asked to put their clothes back on or to wait either in the reception area in robes or in the cramped hallway so that equipment can be moved and tiny treatment rooms can be converted from one kind of treatment area to another. It is impossible to evaluate the treatment quality or even imagine luxuriating in an atmosphere so fraught with noise, exposure and interruptions. And the "champagne and chocolate" featured in the package we signed up for was a joke: 3 small, flat pieces of Ghiradelli wrapped chocolate (looked like samples that the factory gives away) and two small glasses of non-bubbly, warm liquid that might have been champagne but certainly didn't taste fresh or appealing. And, to top it all off, this "special end of spa experience" took place in the crowded hallway where the noise from the surrounding treatment rooms was ever-present, and "privacy" was supposed to be ensured by a folding screen that made the tight area seem like a makeshift closet, at best. Even the best massage therapists and facialists (which these clearly weren't) couldn't begin to compensate for the inadequate and distracting surroundings.

Great experience

They made me feel like a new person when I left the only problem was they took me a little late and I was on-time for my appointment but the service was amazing..

great experience.

We came to this Spa to celebrate a Valentine's Day together. It was our first experience at a Spa ever! The ambiance created an extremely relaxing and soothing atmosphere. We had facials and body massages. And they served champagne and chocolates after all the services. Niceeeee. It was like a great one day vacation!

AMAZING

My husband got me a spa package for Valentine's Day. They were booked for V-Day, so we did not mind to come a day earlier. The package was for both of us and consisted of a manicure for me, pedicure for him and a body massage for both in the same room. Basic treatments, yes, but Faina's Spa did a great job from beginning to end. The staff made us feel very welcome and the people who worked with us were wonderful. We felt very refreshed after our visit! Highly recommend this Spa!

Great place

I've been once for a facial, which was pretty amazing. The lady who gave me the facial was great. Very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. She gave me tips and things to do to improve my skin. I would definitely go back. The location was a little tricky but once I found it, it was a good experience.

European Deep Clean Facial

I absolutely loved my facial. Fay, the esthetician, was gentle yet she got the work done. Everyone was extremely friendly and the facility was very clean. I booked another appointment that same day. I definitely found my permanent spa now.

What an experience !

Boy, did I need to be pampered ! I certainly found the place. It was clean, it smelled great and the team that was there for me, and me alone, was wonderful. I first had a manicure. BARO is exceptional. She does a beautiful manicure. I then proceded to another room where I had a intense facial. Marina was great. My skin has never felt so soft and smooth. Then, on to my favorite....a massage. I asked for a deep tissue massage(especially for my back) and that is what I receved. Zak is wonderful. I waited 4 or 5 days to write this review so that I called honesly tell you that my manicure still looks good, my face feels great and my back feels great and so does my body. Thanks to all at FAINA.... I will return !

Wonderful experience! I went to Faina's spa and it was delightful. The ambiance was fantastic and the employees were even better. One specific employee, Barno, made me feel at home. She is very highly qualified and wonderful at her job. I highly recommend you share your experience with her.

relaxing spa experience

I went to Faina's yesterday to see if someone could work the kinks out of my tense neck & shoulder area. My therapist spent a great deal of time and was very thorough in kneading that area and I left feeling much looser and less tense. The atmosphere was calm & relaxing with little extraneous noise; always a plus in a spa. I will definately return.

Lovin It

I came to this spa as a gift from a special friend of mines. They treated me to a 60 min full body massage and a 60 min facial. When I arrived they were ready to start right away there was no waiting. Which is what I liked. I started with my massage the massage therapist was awesome. She really hit all the points that my body needed work on. i loved it. After I went for my facial which was another great experience considering I only had 2 before ever. The esthecian was very polite and explained what she was doing every step of the way. I had a great experience at this spa. i would definitely tell a friend to tell a friend. You must go and see what I'm talking about.
