Tranquility Organic Spa

This is a great spa to have your fingernails done.
I have been there twice. Once with Jimi and once with Luna. Jimi’s hand and shoulder massage are great. I really liked my nails once Luna was done, but I didn’t care for Luna as she seemed annoyed when I asked her to make my nails shorter and when I wanted to test one of the colours.
I love that they sterilize their instruments with an autoclave. I also love that they use SpaRitual nail polish as it’s a healthier alternative to some other polishes.
All things considered, I will definitely return to have my nails done again.

4 stars for Kia’s service.
3.5 stars for the décor, place & the weirdness of the entrance, weaving thru the building itself to 2^nd floor, hallway washrooms if these things matter to you lol.
I prefer the own storefronts.
Anyways, went for the quickie 30-​min hydra clean facial, for $ 65 in Yaletown, as to be expected.
Felt great with the heating machine to burn off bacteria. Supposingly this is their niche as ive never experienced this before. Kudos to Kia for adjusting the heat, a burning sensation as she rubs the metal piece over the whole face several times.
Wasn’t a full-​on facial as no blackheads but definitely a deep-​pore cleansing.
Would’ve been nice to be offered tea/​water.

I went here for a birthday massage. The lady was very nice and the message did leave me feeling relax. Though these are nice qualities about the place I do have to warn people who are looking for a nice quiet message because this will not suffice. The room for the message is not a real room and is really small. You could hear every single thing (phone ringing, other customers & employees talking, and things happening on the street — ESPECIALLY THE GARBAGE TRUCK). I know they are trying to work with what they got but for a really pricey massage I was not able to slump into a zen which was what I was looking for most.

Quiet and peaceful. I had a facial and pedicure. Both services were excellent and my skin feels amazing. Organic products were so yummy. Wonderful friendly professional staff. Will go back and I recommend you to go.

I came here to have my nails redone from a previous salon that destroyed them on me and they did an amazing job! This salon is so relaxing and atmospheric, it was very hard not to fall asleep! From the hot towels on your hands to the back massage and hand/​arm massage! The manners and hospitality in here is outstanding, you’re offered a drink and everyone is so calm and lovely! I highly recommend this place!
For anyone that’s wondering I had a shellac manicure French tip!
My only flaw, if I was to be very picky, was that my thumbnail chipped the following day which I was upset over as she was so careful and spent so much time perfecting my nails so not sure what happened there but all in all fantastic! Very talented women!
When I visit Vancouver next year I’ll be back ladies :) great business x

I only have been there twice but this became my go-​to nail salon because of their cleaness and exceptional massage. Although it is located on the busy street, this place is hidden on the 2^nd floor of a large office building. It was quite tricky for me to find out where the place was on my first visit.
Since I got a nail infection by using dirty nail files from a salon in LA not a long ago, I’ve been on strong medication for almost 6 months. I am still fighting with it. My recent concern when choosing nail salon is cleanness of the tools and equipments. Tranquility uses glass nail files that is disinfectable in quats. According to the owner, their tools are autoclaved. They do not have a spa chair that is generally a source of fungal or staph infection. Their pedicure water comes in a large bowl.
Tranquility is not the cheapest nail salon. They take time for massage. Especially the owner gives exceptional hand massages. That’s what made me hooked from the first place. Lina is a great tech as well. They also give complimentary shoulder massages at the end of your service.

Went here with a friend 2 weeks ago… was able to make a same day appointment — in fact it was less than 2 hours before that I called but they were still able to accommodate me. I’ve had hundreds of massages and this was one of the best ones that I’ve ever had. I’m going back this Saturday!

Went here a while ago for a Lavender Milk pedicure. Love the massaging chairs and the short (~2 minute) massage at the end. I used the spa ritual nail polish and it lasted for quite a while on my toes, I was impressed!

Now that I have been here, I’ll never need to try somewhere else. I first came in for a pedicure after having a vary poorly done one the week previous at a different spa. Luna was excellent and really made sure she was suiting your needs, by explaining all she was doing, and asking if you needed anything else.
I got the massage paradise for pedicure, and when I returned later on in the month for a last minute manicure, they remembered me and asked about my last service and really made sure I was taken care of.
On top of wonderful service, they even give you a shoulder massage while your Polish is drying!
I recommend this place to everyone and anyone. I’m moving out to delta, but I know I’ll be back just for tranquility spa!

This spa is a very relaxing and beautiful space with super comfortable massage chairs for pedicures. We experienced great attention to detail by the staff as the went to great lengths to make sure our toes where dry enough to put our shoes back on before we left. The upgraded pedicures did not seem to add much in terms of services over the basic one and cost $ 20 more. Getting into the building and the bathrooms is a bit odd, but once you’re in, it’s nice.

In town for a conference and badly in need of a chair massage. Wandered around and a very nice person directed me to this spa. Wonderful, friendly and helpful staff. I feel SO MUCH BETTER. Thank you!

I decided to come in for a pedicure after reading the positive Unilocal reviews and so glad I did… My new favorite place!
I am not one of those people who wants a quick mani/​pedi, I love to completely de-​stress and get pampered and Tranquility Spa does just that. I went in last week, on a HOT and sunny day and tried their monthly special, the fresh cucumber pedi. The esthetician (I forgot her name! and I even asked for it!!! she was amazing!!) really took her time and made me feel completely relaxed. The atmosphere is quite and… well, tranquil! You can definitely find a cheaper place for a pedi as $ 65+tax, tip can be pricey but I highly recommend this place if you are looking to get pampered and truly un-​wind.
I also LOVE that they hand make their scrubs, lotions etc and most of their products are organic, which is amazing. They use a soaking bowl, which I prefer over a jetted tub since it can be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. My pet-​peeve is going to a nail salon/​spa that is loud and disorganized… Tranquil Spa is quiet, clean and extremely professional, 5 star service!
The only thing I would consider a ‘con’ would be the fact that there isn’t a washroom inside of the spa, it is located outside in a shared location in the building. Another thing would be that I would not consider this a ‘luxurious spa’ in that it is small and doesn’t have the luxury feel that some spas would have. That being said… the service and products they use are truly amazing so the ‘cons’ does not bother me one bit, hence the 5 star review!
I truly enjoyed my time and will definitely be going back to try their other services (facials etc.)This will be my new favorite place and the only place I will go for my pedicures!

So relaxing and clean!
I came for a pedicure and got the July cucumber special.
Very clean — all tools are either new or autoclaved and the foot soaking basins are all big bowls that are cleaned in between clients (not the gross foot soaking tubs with jets… bacteria havens).
All of the scrubs and lotions are made in house too!
My aesthetician was very professional and made my experience very pleasurable!
Would recommend this place and definitely would go back!

Well, the girls that work there are very nice and polite.
I came to pamper myself. Tried both packages below and it was nice. BUT, the Korean girl that did my French mani didn’t do it very well. I think she was new. She scraped so hard under my nails, I thought the nails were going to come off and there was so much polish under the nails, it was awful. The owner had to clean up after her. Nail polish chipped off immediately later that day.
The other Japanese girl did an okay job on my pedi except she forgot to trim back the nails and so a couple of days later, I felt the nails growing into my big toe skin (painful) so I had to trim my own nails. She also forgot one heel and it was still rough when I got home and noticed right away when my velcro-​rough heel got caught in the carpet.
Reflexology wasn’t the greatest or the worst. I figured for these prices, I would get the best foot massage. My skin was a lot softer afterwards though.

I only talked to a lady through a telecom. she sounds not friendly at all. I would never go to this kind of spa at all.

Tiny but amazing little spa. The «organic» in their name is what drew me here. I come here for the Relax Package (60 minute Aroma massage + 60 minute Aroma facial), and have also had specialty manicure and hair removal services here.
The Relax Package is by far my favourite deal. Guinot Paris products are used for the facial, and they feel very refreshing on my face. Although the products claim to be ethical, paraben and preservative-​free, I would like to see a list of their ingredients online. I do notice how my face glows after the facial. Aromatherapy oil burns in the treatment room and you get to choose the scent for your massage oil too.
I thoroughly enjoyed my Green Mint Tea manicure– impressed that they make their own scrubs. I am allllll for simple home remedies that work. It was so refreshing and relaxing, all I can remember now is that I loved it. Price is a bit steep at $ 50 for a specialty manicure and on average almost $ 65 for a pedicure, so I do save it for times I need some extra pampering.
Hair removal was pleasant, the tool that applies the wax (to my arm) is really great but I had to wonder if they ever clean it.
I usually see Luna and she does a fabulous job each time. But I can honestly say all their staff are well trained, personable, and knowledgable.
The downside: because this is not a big spa, it does not have the bells and whistles of your luxury giant corporate spa such as hot tubs or champagne. The washroom is also outside the spa, in a shared location with other office suites on the same floor. The walls are quite thin, so you can hear people at the offices next door talking and telling bad jokes. I won’t lie; it does interrupt your relaxation, so come after office hours if possible.
Closest cheap parking is at the community centre near Pacific at Davie and Marinaside Crescent, for $ 2 an hour. Or you can take some time to find free two-​hour parking near the apartments.
I am happy to say that I have found my go-​to spa that I can count on.

This is a hidden gem! I rarely venture out to Yaletown for quality services. Have to say that the customer service here is the best I’ve encountered in the city. If you’re looking to be pampered, definitely come here for a longer mani and pedi. I have also tried their massage which was good but not as great as expected. Support this local business and remind yourself of what good customer service feels like!

I came here for the first time and had an amazing experience. I called on the day of to book a regular manicure and swedish massage and they happily accommodated me. Their location is a bit hard to find (located on the second floor and the door is locked in the evenings), but I was greeted at the door and brought upstairs by the lady at the front desk. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly and offered water with lemon. That was a nice touch. My swedish massage was excellent. My masseuse made sure that pressure and temperature were alright for me throughout the massage which I appreciated. For $ 75, I thought it was great value.
The same lady also did my manicure. I think she tried to upsell me by offering me different specials but I decided to stick with just the basic regular manicure ($ 25). She really took her time to do a detailed job (1 hour) and I appreciated her precise work. While I was getting my nails dried, I was given a nice shoulder and neck massage. Awesome!
I would recommend this place and would definitely come back here again.

~Lovely, serene atmosphere.
~Natural foot scrubs (many to chose from)
~Warm accommodating staff.
~Thurough, quality pedi.
~Beautiful natural plants growing.
~LOVED that I watched Cirque De Soleil~O rather than some mindless music videos or talk shows.
~I will go back.

I was in need of a mani/​pedi and since i’m pregnant i decided to give Tranquility a try. I called at around noon and she was able to accommodate me on the same day at 1:30 and I found that to be fantastic!
I got there late forgetting that Thursdays is the Yaletown Farmer’s Market and finding parking is a B! They were super nice about the fact that not only was I late but I had forgotten to tell them that I had gotten gel nail polish back in May and that they needed to be removed.
The place is very clean and quiet despite the hustle and bustle of Yaletown. The décor was beautiful and the staff made sure the keep a relaxing environment by not speaking among each other.
They had a great selection of plant based nail polishes and after I picked my colour I was directed toward my seat where I was given a menu to pick my mani/​pedi. The seats were great and the bowls where I put my hands and feet had beautiful flower petals in them.
The manager made sure to tell me that since I’m pregnant it would a good idea not to get a foot massage but to just stick with the leg massage. She said that there are many pressure points on our feet which are connected to various parts of our body so it’s safest not to trigger those points.
Luna did my mani and JJ did my pedi. They were both fantastic and paid great attention to detail which I really appreciated. They made sure that I was ok with everything, that I was relaxed, that I was having a pleasant experience and that I was happy with their quality of service.
While that staff was at work, I noticed that manager taking great care of the salon by making sure everything was well kept, clean and that the environment was a pleasant one for the customers. I must say that she made sure that there wasn’t a speck of dust on the floor.
Overall I had a good experience and I would definitely come back. Their prices are way better than Spa Utopia and the like and I received a better quality of service than I would at one of Vancouver’s top spas.
