I would rate it 4 or 5 stars, if not for most unpleasant experiences I have had with Cheryl, a manicurist. Without providing details, let me say, I will never book another appointment with her. In addition to giving manicures and pedicures, Cheryl frequently mans the front desk and answers the telephone. Do not be mistaken by her loud and rough manner. The rest of the personnel are not like her. The massage therapists are very good. Both of the other two manicurists are excellent -- Michelle and Nancy, I believe.
If Oasis Spa intends to live up to its name, it is time for the owner to allow Cheryl

Oasis is excellent with their covid policies, I felt very safe during the entire process. My massage with Cecile was excellent (deep tissue, fantastic pressure) and they even put a pillowcase tucked inside the headrest as a mask when you're face down. Genius. Everyone one had masks on the entire time including the clients. Julie gave me a wonderful pedicure, the whole experience was relaxing and top notch.

Honestly, what can be said about this place other than it is INCREDIBLE and I left feeling lucky to have found both the spa, and owner, Kore, who is just beyond anything I could have ever wished for in an owner. Her COVID precautions were thoughtful and detailed and very safe. She didn't let this get in the way of the relaxing environment and caring ambience, or the impeccable service she provided. I was a newbie and she was just detailed enough while still leaving me to relax and be alone. You can tell she has put her heart into this wonderful haven. I will definitely be back!

I had completely given up on getting gel manicures in Charlottesville after visiting at least 7 different salons over the past year. Every time they peeled after 3-4 days. After coming to Oasis for pedicures, Cheryl convinced me to try again. My gel manicure lasted over two weeks! The facility is clean and the staff is the best! Do yourself a favor and choose Oasis... ask for Cheryl.

My first experience at Oasis was a year ago when my daughter and I were getting pedis/manis for her wedding day. Cheryl not only provided an excellent service on one of the most special times in our lives but also helped my daughter and me through a last minute wedding debacle that had all of us googling where in Charlottesville we could find bowties!!! A year later and I am still going back to Cheryl for my pedicures! She makes you feel at ease and relaxed but mostly her outgoing personality makes you laugh and forget about the stress of the day! I highly recommend this salon and especially Cheryl

On Thursday, 12/27 I had a morning appointment scheduled for a manicure and pedicure. The night before, my dog became very sick and I had to take her to the after hours emergency vet and was up with her for much of the night. I was finally able to sleep in the very early morning hours and called Oasis when I woke and realized the time. This was right around the time of my scheduled appointment and, still very distraught with concern for my dog who was still not well, I explained the situation and profusely apologized for needing to cancel at the very last minute. The receptionist was pleasant enough

I finally made it a point to check out their new location in Belmont and it was lovely. There was ample parking, it was easily accessible, and the check-in desk was easy to find. They did a great job with decorating the space and creating a truly serene atmosphere.
The front desk associate was really nice and welcoming when I first arrived. She greeted me pleasantly, and showed me where the bathroom and waiting room was located. The bathroom and general facility was very clean and kept in great condition. The waiting room was very zen with a calm color palate, an array of magazines to peruse

My daughter and a visited Oasis last Saturday as part of her 21st birthday celebration. We were enveloped in the spa's calm environment as soon as we entered the door, and ushered into a cozy waiting area offering soft lighting, comfortable sofas, tea and other small items. My daughter enjoyed a mud wrap and I had a massage. We were both delighted with our respective services, and plan to return soon!

Oasis is a lovely spot for a treat yourself kind of day. You are first brought to a cozy waiting area where you can find water and hot tea to help set the mood for relaxation. I came here for a flash massage and pedicure and left feeling super relaxed and happy. My massage therapist asked which specific areas needed work and gave me tips for home massage techniques at the end of the session. The price for the pedicure is a bit more than other standalone nail salons in the area, but you're paying for ambiance and quality. The seating area for the pedi is a little uncomfortable (probably because

I had a 60 minute aromatherapy massage today with Catherine. I was congested and couldn't smell much, so I can't vouch for the actual aromas. The massage was good - she asked about any problem areas I have and let me know where I was tight and needed to stretch more. However, she talked a little too much for me - I was trying to have a zen like experience and she pulled me out of the zen with her small talk. At the end of the massage she offered to massage my face to get my sinuses cleared up! It felt weird but definitely helped. I really appreciated her effort to make me feel better

I had a gift certificate here for a pedicure and was excited to check out this spa. It was simple to book an appointment over the phone just a few days in advance. It's great that they have some later evening hours. The spa is really nice and conveniently located on the downtown mall. The pedicure area is really nice and unique instead of sterile with those massage chairs. Everyone was really friendly and the service was spot on. This is definitely a place to visit in the area for a special spa treat.

I visited here a while ago and had a wonderful time. While I cannot attest to the bad reviews previously posted, I can give my opinion of my own personal experience. The place was clean, the front desk was extremely nice, and I really loved the spa experience with the robes and slippers. I came in with my mother who got a pedicure from Michelle, who did an excellent job. My mother said that her feet have never been so soft and her painted toes were perfect. She loved the minty foot wrap that she received. I received a massage from Amy. Her massage was amazing. She catered to all of my needs, did

I received what is hands down the best waxing ever. I've been a lifelong eyebrow waxer and I am very picky, but they did an impeccable job. Sara is excellent. She takes her time, is friendly, and manages to somehow make it nearly painless. She is very skilled at her craft! There are two Sara's there apparently, so ask for Sara B.
Great atmosphere, upscale without the snobiness of an upscale place. Slightly pricey, but worth every penny. I would recommend this place to anyone.

I love this place! I have gotten manicures and pedicures so far and Tanya does great work. I am not usually a manicure person because it chips so quickly but mine held up for about 4-5 days without wear and tear. The 2nd manicure I put Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails top coat on (per Tanya's recommendations) and fared even better.
The spa is not the cheapest but I will pay for quality work and a clean environment.
