Recently had my nails done here. Used to go a lot, but lately the quality of the service was awful. Did sat through getting my nails done, while the tech had earbuds in talking with someone one the phone. Very rude. This is so unprofessional. They can’t call themselves a spa. Also, they now take cash only and have a cash machine that charges $2.25 to get cash. There are plenty of choices in Geneva to get your nails done, I wouldn’t choose this one.☹️☹️ Read Less

I have been here twice now. First time I spent over three hours. The "manager" kept saying I would be next and continued taking people even though I had an appointment. She blamed it on a partner that did not show up for work. Second time I had an appointment at 12 pm and I got a pedicure then waited 30 minutes until I finally asked and was told "what appointment?" She had me in the book and continued to work on another girl, not trying to rectify or apologize for the mistake on her behalf. I will never ever revisit this salon again under any circumstance.

I called 5 days before the day I went to Viva and made an appointment at 10am (when they opened) for my friend (a bride) and 4 of us bridesmaids. When we walked in at 9:59, there was 1 pedicure in progress and 3 others waiting in massage chairs for their pedicures. In addition, there were 4 people sitting in manicure chairs.Needless to say, we had to wait very long for all of us to get done, even though we had made an appointment. They accepted walk ins much earlier than their posted opening time, 10 am. Our nails looked fine, but it was pretty lame that they would let people in earlier than their posted opening time, especially when we had made an appointment. Read Less
