The Palladian Day Spa

I wasn’t super impressed. Candace was fifteen minutes late. The two ladies working the from desk and and text and chatted the whole time. I just didn’t think it was very professional. She does strip wax which I’m also not crazy about, doesn’t tweeze at the end and I had to clean myself up. After asking for a discount for Candace being late or a military discount, I was denied both.

I love the Palladian Spa! I see Candice regularly every 4 weeks for a waxing and have been for over 2 years now. She does a fabulous job. She makes you feel very comfortable and gets the job done. She’s quick and efficient. I was referred to her by several people and heard that she was the best in town. I would have to agree and will remain a loyal client.
I’ve also had a massage there and I received excellent customer service. Again, I felt very comfortable and very satisfied with the treatment I received.
Everyone that I’ve encountered at the Palladian Spa has always been very helpful. They are attentive and provide great customer service.
I highly recommend the Palladian Spa and will continue to enjoy the services they provide.

The location of the Palladian Day Spa is very convienently located on knickbocker. I can only speak in regards to the waxing services since that is so far the only service I have received at the Palladian. I get brazilians waxes by Candace and I will say I have been waxing for over ten years and Candace is one of the best. She makes me comfortable; I never feel awkward or insecure around her. She also offers an ingrown hair treatment that has done wonders for me. As for pricing, it is very fair in my opinion. If you are new in town please don’t judge the book by its cover this place is awesome and has lots to offer, ask for Candace you will not regret it!

Everyone I spoke with was very helpful! Wanted to surprise my wife with a spa day, and they made this happen. I sent a package which was delivered to my wife as, and when I requested. My wife got a massage, facial, manicure and pedicure, said it was an awesome time, recommends the facial:) Thank you everyone at Palladian!

The Palladian is nestled at the end of a shopping strip area, next door to a real estate office off of Knickerbocker. The storefront leaves some to be desired, but don’t judge this book by its cover.
I read a few reviews on here that mentioned gossiping and I have to say I have not witnessed this either of the two times I was there for a massage. All employees I have interacted with have been nice and professional.
The front desk is directly across from the front door and to the left is the waiting area. When I showed up for my first appointment (on a Saturday) it was quiet and tidy; same on my second appt.
I was there both times for a massage (with Brandi) and she did an EXCELLENT job! I am no stranger to massages and so it is fair to say I am particular about having firm pressure and someone who is capable of working out knots. Brandi does a great job of both! She is also accommodating with me since I am nursing my infant and I require a little modification to stay comfortable during the massage. She is always professional and courteous and doesn’t skimp on the time.
Brandi is officially my go-​to in this town for a massage and I’ve already sent my husband to see her too! If you’re looking for a great massage at a great price, go see Brandi at the Palladian. You will NOT be disappointed!

Went back for another massage and had a blast. Was so relaxed that I fell asleep during my fantastic facial. I had a manicure and pedicure that were amazing. For the first time ever I did not have someone yelling at me saying «too short.» The paint did not peel off a day later and it look exquisite. Most of all the pedicure was done the BEST and MOST SANITARY way. I had a PERSONAL bowl to prevent cross contamination. I had my own mani/​pedi tools and the file was given to me once everything was completed rather than used on another person. The prices are great. The people are great. There are so many services to choose from and all the services are top notch. Go today!!!

I have to admit, the atmosphere of this place is not very spa like. When you walk in the front door you are less than a step away from the front desk. The front desk people are a little rude, I’m not sure they even greeted me. just stared at me until I gave them my name. And in between treatments, I did notice a lot of employees standing around at the teeny front desk area to gossip. This is the VERY first thing people see when stepping inside.
I have to say that they were able to get me a same day appointment for two back to back spa treatments. That can’t be said for many other places. The hour long facial was just ok. The girl asked if there was anything I wanted to address and when I mentioned a few things I was concerned about she just suggested another, more expensive treatment that I would have to come back for. That’s fine, I don’t mind coming back for different treatments but I did expect maybe some slight tweaking of the treatment I was there to get or possibly some suggestions of things I could try at home, in between treatments. But I didn’t get any of that. And the factial treatment I did receive I couldnt have give myself at home. The hour long massage, on the other hand, was wonderful. The room was spacious and dimly lit. The music was nice and relaxing. The massage was just right, just enough pressure to make me feel like jelly. I wish I would have spent my facial money on a longer massage.

I get a full Brazilian wax once a month and this is the only thing I can review this place on. They offer massages, facials, and the usual spa fare. The facilities are nothing fancy and the front desk people are kind of rude. They gossip and are loud; not the ambiance you would expect from a spa. You expect quiet and a peaceful setting when you visit a spa… not here. Candace does an ok job on her Brazilians but she does not tweeze after she is done. She also does not remove the wax but she gives you a bottle of wax remover and cooling gel so you can do it yourself. I’ve been to so many different places to get Brazilians and this is the first time I have experienced this. I don’t mind doing it but they charge $ 65 for a full Brazilian. That is expensive! I used to pay $ 45 at Isabelle’s European Day Spa in San Antonio and did not have to clean myself after the wax was done. Unfortunately I am stuck in San Angelo for the next year or so and this is one of the very few places in this city that will do a full Brazilian wax. Oh, and she uses strip wax… not hard wax. Oh well!
