- ASWebsDoha, Qatar23 contributionsGreat spot for a mani/pedi! You won’t regret it. ☺️My daughter and I came for a mani/pedi to treat ourselves for our Christmas holiday. The ladies were kind, and did a meticulous job with our nails. My daughter asked for a complicated design, and I asked for snowflakes on 2 of my toenails. One of the staff specializes in nail art, so she came over and stepped in when it was time for the designs. We’re really happy with the results! A few days have passed and our nails still look fresh. (We both got gel polish on fingers and toes.) The price was very reasonable as well.Thank you for sharing your experience at SANKARA Thailand!

- WeTrippinAUBrisbane, Australia1,416 contributionsBest foot massage in Krabi.I’ve visited many massage shops in the last 5 days. Thirteen hours of massage in 5 days, hubby has had about 8 hours. Once we found Sankara, we stopped trying other shops. Their technique for foot massage works on the whole leg with perfect slow firm pressure. It’s the only shop that I have found that offers proper remedial massage. We had therapist Namwan, and she was number one! We booked her every day for three days. I also tried the traditional thai massage. Also excellent, with proper thai attire provided for you to wear during the thai massage. It is highly recommended to book in advance as they book out quickly, allow 10 mins to wait at reception to sort your booking, again due to being popular. You can also book on their website, Facebook, Insta etcThank you for sharing your experience at SANKARA Thailand!

- siya kothariPerth, Australia7 contributions5 star massages every day by Kamla, Lala, Pla and especially Cheer!We are a family of 4 with 2 children aged 17 and 11 from Perth, Australia and came to visit Krabi on holiday from the 12th to 20th of July 2024. We stayed at the Panan Resort in Krabi and came across Sankara which was just walking distance from the resort - perfect! We had the foot/head/neck/shoulder massage, aroma massage & junior massages between the 4 of us and they were so good that we came back nearly every single day! Special mention to therapist Cheer - he was so kind, friendly, fun to chat with and had the biggest smile on his face every single day, my little brother Shail always wanted him and he was an excellent massage therapist! Kamla, Lala, and Pla were also amazing too and we always asked for them as they made the experience so relaxing for all of us. We really miss Krabi and Sankara Spa and if we are ever here again we will definitely return! 100/100!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you for sharing your experience at SANKARA Thailand!

I went for a manicure + pedicure. I did not think she was very friendly and it was hard to communicate with her. The gellamp did not turn on automatically and I had to tell her to turn it on every time. A few times I did not notice myself so the polish would remain wet after which it dripped down the sides of my nails. It hurt quite a lot when the lamp was turned on and my finger started to turn very hot. Once finished with my nails, I was not happy at all as it was very thick and uneven and polish was around my nails completely. Then she moved on to my toes and immediately it started to hurt again so I asked her to stop as I felt very uncomfortable. I told her I would go outside for a moment as I felt very awkward. Then I asked to talk to the receptionist outside as I did not want to discuss this matter with other customers listening in and because I felt very awkward with everyone looking at me but they refused to talk to me outside and I did not want to go back. As they required me to pay upfront, I have lost the money whilst I did not even get my toes done. Once I started peeling of the gel of my skin, which hurt as well, the entire gel came with it (see photo). Now I have to get it removed somewhere else again losing money on this. Ofcourse it can happen that you are not satisfied with your nails, which is fine, but I do feel that I should be able to discuss this in private and that they should ask me why I decided to stop the treatment.

I'm sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at our salon. Communication and comfort during treatments are crucial, and it's unfortunate that these aspects were lacking during your visit. I can assure you that a UV lamp for curing your nail polish does NOT radiate any heat that can cause discomfort. It's purely a blue light only. It's unfortunate that you left without giving us the opportunity to address it.

5 of us went for massage at 10am and were told to keep quiet multiple times although no one was present around.
Was disappointing as the cashiers were very rude. Do not understand what is the need to reduce volume if we are the only one present around.
We were told our money wont be refunded and we will be asked to leave.
One of the worst massage experiences
I would suggest not to visit this outlet

Excellent aloe vera massage. The premises are clean and the staff very friendly. I went back to do eyelash extensions. The staff is very professional and the treatment was carried out quickly. The result is very pretty. I recommend this place!

The best Thai massage I've ever had. And I've been to many, but this one beats them all. I don't know if it's luck with the masseuse or the general quality of the place, but from my perspective I highly recommend it. I was in Ao Nang at 4. This one was the BEST!

The old nail polish had to be removed and newer nail polish had to be applied. 399 Bhat (the most expensive salon) 30 minutes later half the polish had come off again 🤡
Plus point: the salon is very well maintained
Another minus point: they are very superficial here
Do you really need a manicure? Here and now? Really?
