Not even sure where to start. I received a gift card March 2020 as a post baby gift. I never booked a massage then because of COVID. Finally I decided this week to have a much needed message and remembered my gift card. I called the south Miami location to simply ask if they had an appointment available for tomorrow for some reason the process of my name and phone number seemed like it was not convenient for the receptionist. Still waiting if they even had an appointment available…. was asked for my gift card number which I physically have to be told I redeemed the card at the Kendall location by a person named Sandy Garcia which isn’t me. The receptionist still had no interest to help me after the fact. I did make the attempt to call Kendall and the receptionist response to my situation was “wow” she then transferred my call to a manger which after listening to hold music dropped within two minutes. Sad with the whole situation because if I was just told please bring the gift card with you and we can at least give you a discount I would have booked an appointment not sure why customer service is so hard. Hope that Sandy Garcia had a great message.For reference here’s a physical picture of the gift card I still have in my possession.

Please do not waste your time getting a membership with Hand and Stone. Although the facility is beautiful the customer service is terrible. I’ve had this membership for over a year and have only been able to book 2 sessions. Number one you submit and inquiry online they NEVER contact you. Number two when you call via phone you need to call 15+ times before they answer and tell you they NEVER have appointments. Lastly, when you do get up drive to the location and finally book an appointment over two weeks in advanced they cancel the day of. One time is acceptable but two and three times is NOT! They have canceled my facials and massages day of sometimes with less than an hours notice. Horrible customer service. Not worth paying if you can literally never use it!

I recommend you don’t receive any services from here they have extremely horrible customer service , the employees are extremely unprofessional and very disrespectful with the customers , when I walked in to go receive services they asked me for my credit card information and for me to leave my card while receiving services, when I politely told her no because I have read the reviews she said I couldn’t receive any services unless I left my card, I was really dissatisfied and very disgusted by the way they treat their customers. the amount of times they have tried attempt fraud and it’s a shame how little respect they have for the customers , go take your money somewhere else this place is the most unprofessional disturbing place ever and it’s a miracle this place hasn’t shut down still. hand and stone spa is a scam operated by all their employees don’t waste your time coming here you will be very unsatisfied by their services.

If I can give 0 stars I absolutely would! My first impression was horrible. Went a couple of weeks ago, because a relative referred me to that specific location. However my experience was not what I expected. I have no experience whatsoever in massages so I like to ask information. I walked in and the girl at the front desk was doing these weird dances with her arms and hands. She had her phone propped up and was recording herself to these dances. I was embarrassed for her and myself because I walked in in that. When she saw me she laughed and ran to her desk. I told her I was a new customer and would like information on the services that they provided she murmured something but to find out she was talking to someone on these things she had in her ear. I waited patiently then she told me someone would be right out . I didn’t understand why if she was the front desk lady. She proceeded to scroll through her phone. She never ask if I was okay or having a good day, she ignored me. I told her how long did I needed to wait she got an attitude right away , huffed and puffed. I honestly was appalled by how she worked at the front desk and not even help. Very inexperienced, unprofessional, no manners what so ever. I feel sorry for her parents! But never in my years of being a trainee have I experienced this with my own employees! I left and didn’t bother to ever come back. I will make sure I never refer anyone there as long as the lady (kiara) is still working there. I cannot believe with all the complaints this location has gotten and especially recent ones that they have done nothing about this. It seems the management there doesn’t take into consideration of there customers. I will be taking this to higher authority. Please retrain your staff especially front desk people. Set rules!! No phone! Air pods! Or doing these silly dances. Attitude adjustments!!! Hello!!!??

ATTENTION ALL POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS!!! Do not!! I Repeat Do Not ever patronized this business. Take Heed to my bad experience! This Business will place charges on your card without you actually receiving a service. When you try and ask to cancel your membership, they will lie and tell you they cannot. I should have took heed to other reviewers saying the same thing happened to them. They tell you one price and when you finish your service they tack on extra fees saying they had to do this and that without asking you for authorization to perform extra services. You will also have to watch your credit card statements for extra billing. RUN AWAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN! AND NEVER LET THEM OFFER YOU MEMBERSHIP!! The manager of this business refused to speak to me to resolve issues and explain. THIS PLACE & THE EMPLOYYEEs ARE SO DISHONEST! I AM TOTALLY TURNED OFF & DISGUSTED OF LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE!! ONE of employee claim she could not write down my Email address to cancel membership. Go to any other Spa but this one. I Recommend LAPIS in Fountainbleau where you receive TOP Notch service. Something Hand and Stone Massage and Facial SPA know nothing about!! They deserve zero stars , but I had to give one star to post my review. Im considering reporting them to the Better Business Bureau if they dont remove the charges from my card that I did not receive services for and cancel my membership.

I want to start off by saying that Natasha is the best masseuse Ive ever encountered. (Town & Country Location)However, no massage is worth the hassle that the front desk workers give you. Ive had the same billing problem for months that they continue to say they resolved just for the same issue to come up again the following month. The first time i had signed up to become a member, I brought my boyfriend for a couples massage and there was a misunderstanding. They had made him a member as well WITHOUT HIS CONSENT and put my credit card under his account. I was getting billed twice so I called and spoke to a manager and she assured me that they would cancel my boyfriends account and just transfer his service to my account.For a few months now, everytime I call to make my monthly appt, Theres always an issue. Whether itd be that my account doesnt exist at all or that my monthly services would be in my boyfriends account even after they assured me multiple times that his account was cancelled. Ive spoken to several people about this issue and no one has truly resolved it. Its gotten to the point where I had to cancel my membership due to the lack of accountability on their behalf.Today I wanted to get a massage and I called and spoke to Kiara to make sure my services were available. It turns out I have no services available. I decided to go in person and asked them to look up my boyfriends account that is supposed to be cancelled and all the services were in his account. Kiara was not being attentive and was using her personal phone and airpods. I asked Kiara to transfer the services since its my account and she had the audacity to say that a transfer fee would be charged. That was the last thing I needed to hear and I decided to cancel my membership. I am very disappointed and I will miss Natasha but I cant deal with the level of unprofessionalism and disaorganization.

I have been a member of this hand and stone for four years now. I am always extremely happy and satisfied with the services offered and that I received for both facials and massages. The front desk staff is incredibly polite, courteous, kind and attentive! The licensed masseuses and facialists are top notch! The membership fee is a great deal for these devices that are more expensive at other spas or locations!

I received a gift card for a 50 minute massage. I went to the Town and Country location. The receptionist was very outgoing, warm and attentive.. I had a hot stone massage by Maybellis. It was great and she was wonderful. On the way out I signed up for the monthly membership. I saw all of the negative reviews and the warning about continued automatic monthly billing after cancelling the membership. I will be on the lookout for this and even bring this up if and when I decide to cancel my membership.

Review №35

Great deep tissue massage. My therapist Ilba is very thorough and very proffessional. I’m glad they went back to letting you transfer the service for free to a family member. The monthly membership is high enough. Would like to see a better price for the additional services in the same month maybe I would get them more often.Overall great place and the staff is always very helpful.

Spa is clean & pretty. Ladies working the reception area are gracious & kind. My aesthetian was very nice. Why did I give 3 stars? I purchased a facial which includes extractions. I had one pimple, medium size. It was sore, raised with pus & top was a bit dry due to me applying pimple medication to try & dry it up. I did not want to pop it myself. My face was cleaned, steamed then the extraction for my 1-pimple & whiteheads on nose. My experience in past has been a pimple like I had that did not pop easily after steam would require a small sterile needle to Pop the pimple then pressure by aesthetian to release the pus/blood followed by passing over the entire face, focusing on areas of extractions with a high frequency “zappy electricity like” wand. This kills bacteria. This did not happen she just kept applying pressure to squeeze out the pimple, no high frequency wand following extractions & left me with a very red area and noticeable scab which is the result I would have gotten if I performed the ‘squeeze the pimple myself”. My pimple area was still sore like there was still fluid beneath. That has never happened & this pimple was not like a cystic pimple (red with very little head). Pimple was red, raised with visible pus but had a dried top. Keep in mind I had teenage & adult acne until age 30 with weekly/biweekly facials performed as I described above with great results . Disappointed with end results. It is now the following morning and I have a very ugly black scab.

I went in for a couples massage and was charged and additional $20 for a couples room which really adds absolutely NO value what so ever. less privacy my gf was far enough away that I barely even new she was there so not sure why they charge this when perhaps one should get a credit for not having used 2 separate rooms. SMH ????

Very disappointed with the customer service at Town and Country location. The lack of customer service skills from the management level at this location is something I have not experienced. Management has NO care in the world if you are satisfied or not with their service or treatment. The monthly contract deal for me was a set up and management has no intent to take care of the client or abide by the good faith treatment Management was very quick to let me go rather than work a little to fix a situation.

Maybe they pay people to write good reviews because I honestly cannot think of one positive feedback for them. The worst company ever go get a massage from hands-down! I wish I can get a hold of the owner of this franchise so I can let him know whats going on at his location. Please if you still decide to go here do not go to Stephanie. Hear me out she is so unprofessional ever would add non-apologetic for making her guest wait over 30 minutes in the lobby while she was having pickles in the back. At the front desk, very wet warm thats what Im hearing on the comments deafly paid comments because theres no warmth with the front desk receptionist she was very cold and rude and not since year with the fact that I had to wait so long

Very Deceiving!!!! I was given a gift certificate from my friend. Booked an appointment, asked me for the certificate number. I even asked if the certificate was valid as a walk in, they said yes. I get the service done and when I handed over the certificate, they told me that it was not valid supposedly. They gave all kind of excuses and explanations, they were not helpful at all, front desk girls were ironic and despot. I called my friend who gave me the certificate and told me that she gets billed on the dot every month. Stay away as much as you can from this place. Horrible customer service!!!!!

Beware of subscribing to a monthly membership with this place because when you want to cancel it they continue to bill your credit card and then they refuse to credit you.The ladies in the front have no notion of customer service.

Very disappointed in this spa... if there were no star option thats waht would be here. When they first opened customer service was good, services were also good. Now, you cant get desk staff nor a regional or spa manager to understand your disappointment and follow up.I came in for an 80min. package - yes, package! Got 1hr (if that) bet. pre service talk and post (how was service, get dressed and come out) - Therapist/massage person; needs to be re-trained, loud with items needed for the hot stone massage, the sink etc., care of limbs, foot treatment rushed, facial - did not know what to do and how - Very seriously a total waste of my gift card! Simply stated, I regret I went that day to get her and the type of poor service I received. Imagine the cost of this gift card from a non-member to then be disappointed in the poor service I was given. Ive warned my friends/colleagues to never buy me a gift card from this place again- as they know Im a spa enthusiast. Buyer beware, make it clear of how many mins. you expect from what you booked. My disappointment really stemmed from the fact that No one in charge took the time to reach out to understand what took place and how I was not given what was purchased. Bad news.

Heard great things about the therapists here but havent had a chance to try them because the receptionist was so rude, I turned around and walked out. WORST FRONT DESK ATTENDANT EVER. I believe her name was Kiara (or Ciara) and as multiple people have said, she was awful. I cant believe the owners havent done something yet about her. Rude, unattentive and on her phone, I could not be more disappointed with my attempted first visit. Very unprofessional. I will not be back.
