Ciao Bella Salon & Day Spa

Bella was amazing! She fit us in at the last minute for 3 end-​of-​vacation pedicures when other places turned us away. Thank you for sending us out of the Keys and back to reality relaxed and with great-​looking toes!

Love coming here! Had my first mani/​pedi here today. Was great! Not only was the mani/​pedi great, the pedi chairs massage your back while you get pampered. Relaxing and peaceful.
In the past have always had great massages here.
I will keep coming back every time I am in Islamorada!

The locals choice for a Salon and Spa in the Florida Keys. This Islamorada spa is my favorite. Shea is my stylist and Gilda is my favorite facial its in town. Bella is a doll and makes you feel as if you are part of the family. Try it next time you are in town.

You see the Stars! Yeah great Service, fantastic people serving with joyful hearts. I am picky when it comes hair cut and color. Specially hair cut. Michelle is an artist.

Wasn’t too thrilled with this place. I am a local that has been twice and left my appointments less than impressed. The first time I went here I had a facial, hair colored, mani/​pedi, and massage. The only thing that I liked was the mani/​pedi. I had scars on my face from the facial extractions.
Just tried this place again today and had a terrible spray tan experience. I look TERRIBLE! The spray tan booth is outside so it’s very awkward to be naked outside next to the employees eating lunch. The wind kept blowing the tent so I have white streaks on my chest and face from where it hit me. I had to run through the hall naked to a room to dry off. It was terrible!!!

Came here by recommendation for my wedding without a trial. We all loved our hair and makeup! When I called they did tell us our hair would be from $ 75-​$ 135. All of our hair, different lengths and textures ended up being $ 125 each. If you’re going to go here be prepared to pay at least that. They did an awesome job and took care of us! Also– if you want to do lashes, be prepared to pay $ 25 for lashes that you can purchase at CVS for a fraction of the cost and apply them yourself. Again, they did an amazing job on all of our hair and makeup we just thought it was a bit pricey.

Pleasant and relaxing experience each visit. Consistent service, professional and welcoming group, excellent products and great energy. Thank you Ciao Bella. Top notch salon and spa!

Best facial I’ve ever had. Gilda is so helpful and caters to your skin’s specific needs.

My wife and I had been looking for a Day Spa during our recent visit to the Florida Keys. We rented a condo in Tavernier and decided to do an internet search to save time in finding a good place. We totally did this on a whim.
All I can say was that my wife was so ecstatic after her facial and pedicure at this place we scheduled a couples massage for the following day.
I can say that my wife and I have experienced massages and other spa services in different areas of the country. In no other place have we found an owner (Bella) and a staff more attentive to providing a quality experience than what we had received while at Ciao Bella. Our only regret was the place wasn’t in our hometown. We will sure miss it!

This salon is a rip off. Went here for a recent wedding to get my hair styled. You need to look into the prices first, trust me. I showed up with washed and dried hair and receive a style only. The bride had told me it would cost $ 60 to get hair styled (which is too much in itself). The final price at Ciao Bella: $ 115. No lie. $ 115 to curl and pin my hair into a styled side bun with pins and apply hairspray. Definitely a mediocre job. The owner is not a friendly person. We never felt welcome or received customer service that would make the price worth it. Also, my stylist lied and said she used a blow dryer on my hair, which increased the $ 90 style fee to $ 115. Even if she did use a blow dryer, seriously: an additional $ 25 to blow dry hair? Never heard of it. Should be included in the styling fee. A joke of a salon that swindles out-​of-​towners because they think it is the only option.

I would not recommend this salon ever to anyone. I was in Islamorada for my sisters wedding so we visited the salon in July for the preview for my sister, and again in Sept for the actual wedding.
The preview was fine and my sister was happy with makeup and hair. Her preview was over $ 200, she had been quoted $ 160. Of course there was a very hard sell on product.
Coming back for the wedding I went in with myself, mom, several other adults and a little one who got a mani/​pedi. I have four children and we do nails at home often and have never been charged full price for a child. They get less service, take less time and should pay accordingly. I negotiated this but shouldn’t have to.
Skip did my hair and did a good job, I had wanted to cancel my appointment but told I would be charged full price if I did cancel even though I brought in 4 other people to the salon. Mom’s hair looked like Tammy Wynnet (sic). She was happy, the other ladies were fine with their visit. One of the girls was asked if her wallet was real? You don’t question a person’s things when they are standing in front of you to pay for services. It was just rude.
I got my brows waxed or maybe I should say I got scalped. I had the skin waxed off my face. I spent four days including my sisters wedding with scabs on my face. Bella, the owner, tried to tell me I should have told them my skin was sensitive. Well I’ve been waxed often and NEVER had a problem. I was offered many products to fix it and they were all expensive.
I went in with my sister on her wedding day and when they finished they asked her and me what we thought. Well our input was disputed and disregarded. I said a little more white in the corner to make her eyes pop. No she did plenty, and my sister was given a lip color that was more orange then she wanted but they were sure it was what she needed.
The salon was very noisy and not relaxing, Bella was really loud on the phone and kept running to the back to smoke. It was very expensive, not chill at all, some of the services were horrible. Service was atrocious, prices — it may be normal for the Keys, but I expect to pay what I am quoted.
Just don’t go.
