Elite Retreat Day Spa & Salon

I like how professional the staff is here and the pleasant interior and décor. I have been here multiple times for manicures and pedicures and they always do an excellent job. The only downfall is the price. I recently had the candy cane pedicure, and was super excited! I am 36 weeks pregnant and a refreshing peppermint pedicure sounded perfect! It lasted an hour and was $ 50 plus tip. That’s an extravagance for me. But, I really wanted to try it out. It included a really nice salt scrub and peppermint lotion massage on legs and feet. I loved that part, just wished it was longer. They did a good job of cleaning up my dry skin and shaping and painting my toes. I will probably go back if they have a special I am interested in, just won’t pay that much for a service again.

Very surprised I would ever be rating a day spa, much less 5 stars, but they deserve it. Danielle is an excellent massage therapist! I have had her probably 5 times and she has not only never disappointed but has actually noticeably gotten better over the 2 years I have come in. She is a lifetime learner and has a lot of useful knowledge about your body and health that she is willing to share. And if you have any bad habits, she does not hold back and lets you know that too!
Writing this review is a good reminder I need to schedule another appointment with her.

This is definitely a don’t judge a book by it’s cover situation. The outside looked a little rundown but inside everything was updated and modern. Everyone was super nice. I got a Swedish massage from Brenda who was awesome. She made me feel really comfortable and massaged my muscles into submission. I didn’t catch the name of the little brunette girl who did my toes but she was awesome too. I left feeling super pampered and the prices were really reasonable. I got two pedicures and a 60 minute massage for only $ 120. I will be back.
Edit: Brooke! I just remembered the name of the girl that did my toes. It might have been the most comfortable pedi I’ve ever had. HIGHLY recommended.

My husband brought me a $ 200+ gift certificate for my birthday in December 2014. I scheduled and appt for Jan 9^th, 2015 back in Dec 2014. When scheduling I asked for 2 services – 1-​body wrap and 1-​eye facial. The lady on the phone asked me for my phone number as she would call me a day prior to give a reminder, which was not done. Then asked if I had a gift card, which I said yes. When I got there, the lady at the counter asked me for my phone number and stated we did not have it on file. Ugh! The body wrap and eye facial received was really nice. After receiving the services I was asked appox 3 times if I was paying w/​a gift card – made me feel really uncomfortable as though I could not pay with any other means. Clearly my gift card was not entered into their booking system or they thought I was going to bail! Bad customer service!!!

I went for a classic pedicure for my birthday and was pleased with the results. Being 38 weeks pregnant my feet were puffy and the light massage and pampering felt good. Nail color turned out nice too. The woman who worked with me was super nice and we had a nice chat during the pedicure.
It wasn’t a mind blowing experience and that is why I rate a 4 instead of 5. It is also a little more pricey than I’m use to paying. But I would go back again and even try their other services when I have the money for some pampering.

I wish I could give E.R. ANOTHER 5 stars. I can’t say enough about it! Everyone here is fantastic. Brooke is my go-​to girl. She’s fabulous and super talented, and she does everything from hair to nails to tanning to waxing. She does it all, and let me tell you how refreshing that is! I don’t have to make appointments at 3 different places; I can do it all in one spot – heck, even on ONE day! I’ve never taken part of the spa portion of business, but I sure love to use the salon! Even the girls I haven’t had work on me are still wonderful. Ryann is super sweet and does some awesome nail art. Carrie and Mandy make you feel like friends when you call the salon. We even had a wonderful experience when I told my friends we needed to book our appointments as the wedding party for our friend’s wedding this past fall. We went in and booked our time slots (and I was selfish and asked for Brooke!) and we were treated to bagels and mimosas, other assorted treats, and they did full hair and airbrush makeup on the bride. She looked flawless. We all had different styles to our hair, and each one was well-​done and held up all night. I even wanted to rock mine the next day, but it’s best I didn’t! :) I couldn’t be anymore thrilled that E.R. is in Belleville! Truly a hidden gem!

I love this place! I’ve gone there for haircuts, manicures, and massages. All of the employees are very friendly and professional. No matter what I’m getting done, they always make sure it’s exactly how I want it. The prices are very reasonable too.

I’ve done 2 body wraps here and have left feeling so renewed after both! They also carry my fancy ;) shampoo and that makes me happy: D

Love them! I got my first ever set of gel nails done here and they have been awesome. Squeezed me in on short notice, have always been nice when I have come in and talkative, very informative. I broke one off and they fixed it– for free. Which was very nice as well. I recently got some terrible hair coloring from a neighboring salon and my nail stylist has been great about giving advice on when I should come back to get my hair stripped and redone, can’t wait to make this my permanent place to go for nails, hair, etc. Go to Ryne, she’s been my nail stylist and is really awesome to talk to– on my first time in she also gave me a ton of coupons to use for future services. The place is nice, the girls seem fun, the prices are cheap and I love it.

This is a really nice little place that will really surprise you! I was here about a year ago for a massage and then I received a Pampering Package from my husband recently for my birthday. Both times here have been a great experience. It has a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. The services were wonderful. I had a great massage! The manicure/​pedicure is great quality. I will definitely go back!

Incredible! I was given a Pampering Package for Christmas and just now have had time to go in and use it. Awesome massage, wonderful facial and fabulous pedicure.
Home turned day spa this place is one of Belleville’s best kept secrets! No need to go to St Louis for a day of pampering. The atmosphere is so relaxing. Cocktails offered with every service — what more could a girl ask for?
They moved me through my appointments in a very timely but not rushed manner. Other spas that I have been to, I have had to wait between appointments — not cool.
Staff was courteous and very professional. Everyone had years of experience and you can tell they love what they do! Thanks ladies for giving me such a wonderful relaxing day!
