Went here for a company gathering, and it was an amazing experience. Having never received an actual massage before I had very little expectations going into it. Right when you walk in the ambiance and decor matched the vibe perfectly. I got the full body cbd massage and my body felt 10 years younger! 10/10 would recommend for solo sesh or even for group events.

I love the massages and facials here. The retail store is also great, with a good selection of gifts and CBD products. I also like that the front desk can text and remind me of appointments!

Our company booked a "Spa Party" where 5 of us were able to experience the wonderful hospitality of AvantGard. We were greeted by Sofia, and were taken to the lounge to enjoy a glass of champagne. This was then followed by a tour of the facility by the owner, Blanca Caballero. Me, alongside of the rest of the party were stunned (in a good way!) after our treatments, and we thank the AvantGard team for their magnificent service and hospitality.

I had a life-changing massage with Res. Perfect pressure! He made me feel comfortable to ask any questions if I had them, checked in with me a couple of times to ask if the pressure was ok and he was easy to talk to and has mad massage skills. I will be seeing him again soon! Worth every penny!

Always very professional, awesome service. My favorite day spa on the peninsula! This place is not cheap, but it's definitely worth the high prices.

I have been getting a membership message with Meirya for years and was a loyal client. Meirya definitely knew her stuff! Unfortunately, for the spa and me she has moved.
I asked the front desk who they recommended and they suggested Barbara. Sadly the two don't even compare! Not sure Barbara is even a masseuse. The massage I received was anything but relaxing or beneficial. It actually made me angry. All she did was pump the oil and lathering me up with soft caresses. Then she would stop and just lay her hands on one spot and then shake her hands a little. I was thinking "I just wanted

Klaudia is reason I first came to AvantGard and happily make the 45 minute drive from Oakland. I followed her from a previous spa because she is hands-down the best esthetician I've ever had. I have adult acne (ugh!) and she really takes her time to understand your skin problems and provide a tailored treatment that will leave your skin looking great while feeling so pampered. The rest of the spa staff are nice, the facilities are clean and the ambiance is relaxing. I can't recommend Klaudia and AvantGard enough!

It's been awhile since I've reviewed anything. I mostly save those for when I'm super impressed and Avantgard breaks that spell

Once a year I take my grooming to the next level (weird but men secretly do that) and decided, well damn, my eyebrows are bushy. That's a random thing to think about after you stuff your face with a tri-tip sandwich. Anyway, I set the appointment and two days later I come in to my 3:30 appointment pretty early.

The check in process is super easy. You definitely get hosted but the vibe and presentation there is exceptional. They really take their

My massage experience with Mireya was phenomenal. The outside setup was well organized and nicely set up, complete with misters which was very nice on a warm day. Unfortunately, my customer service experience was less than satisfactory. While I appreciate that times are changing due to COVID, I was extremely disappointed to find that the information presented on the website was not honored in the spa. When I questioned it, they explained that they were "in the process of updating" and I received a complete refusal to honor the pricing depicting on the location's website. I exited my massage experience

This place never disappoints. They do great pedicures, and I've had a couple facials there too over the years. Today my husband and I got a couples massage and it was amazing. I've had a lot of massages with many different therapists in various modalities and today's massage with Tony was among the best I've ever had. I feel so relaxed and pain free. Very professional and talented staff. Pricey, but worth it when you want to spoil yourself or someone else. Overall peaceful ambience and cozy lounge.
