Spa Kingston

Lie Lani is wonderful, always my go to girl! She always does an amazing job on my brows, which let me tell you, can be a handful! What’s also great is how personable and kind Lie Lani is, not to mention all the great tips she gives on skin care. She definitely knows her stuff, and my skin and brows have never looked better!
On top all that Spa Kingston has such a relaxing atmosphere and is beautifully designed, a must go!

This facility is lovely and relaxing, and their team is uniformly friendly and helpful. They are now my go-​to salon for facials, threading, massage etc. None of the techs I’ve worked with so far have tried to give me a hard sell on products, but they will definitely go over the benefits if you express interest.

Came here last Friday, January 22^nd, with my mom who was visiting from out of town. 100% amazing, hands down, from beginning to end. My mom began with the microdermabrasion with Emily and I started with the Mini Facial Royale with LieLani. My facial was perfect and relaxing, LieLani was so sweet and did a wonderful job. My mom said her microderm was the best, and Emily was so knowledgable and kind. We then went into a rose foot soak, followed by a couples massage with Josh & Ricardo and that was amazing as well, basically one of the top 5 massages we’ve had in our lifetime. I would definitely recommend this spa to anyone. Love the inside décor and friendly staff. 5 stars!

I usually don’t write reviews for anything but Spa Kingston really deserves one.
Last summer, I started getting an unusual series breakouts. For a few months I tried a bunch of the typical products (a lot of the salicylic acid/​tea tree oil based stuffs), which only exacerbated the issue and ended up being cash flushed down the toilet.
As a poor graduate student, signing up for an actual ‘treatment’ was a huge decision and honestly, a last ditch effort. I’ve been seeing Emily for about 3 months for Spa Kingston’s acne clinic, and this is probably one of the smartest choices I’ve made in my life. She’s super knowledgeable, and tailors your program to the changing conditions of your skin. For certain products that you only need to use a few times, she packs you sample batches so you don’t have to buy a whole bottle. It took a bit of patience and… it was really hard to cut cheese… but now everything’s almost completely cleared — we’re working to get rid of the pigment remnants. In addition, my skin doesn’t dry out as much as it used to, which is a completely separate issue I’ve been dealing with for years.
For the first time in about half a year, I’m not stressed about a new breakout every time I walk into a restroom and see a mirror. Thank you Emily, and Spa Kingston :)

Christiana Rojas is a wonderful aesthetician. She is thoughtful and provides tips on how to improve your facial skin and make it shiny, not dry or oily. Always great to see a smiling face whenever you walk in the spa and hear a «hello, how’s your skin doing today?» Thanks, my face has become more nourished since I’ve been coming to Spa Kingston.
Oh and the atmosphere of being in a field surrounded with white flowers makes it feel like heaven

An aesthetician at another spa recommended I visit the spa Kingston acne clinic due to my unhappiness with the texture of my skin and some underlying acne. The initial cost of the program was hard to overcome. It almost seemed like a scam just to get you to buy the pricey products. But after many failed regimens to improve my skin, I resigned to pay the high cost of the program. I have been seeing Emily Avery since November and she creates a skin care program designed just for me and evaluates my skin about every two weeks when I receive a skin treatment that she recommends based on the current condition of my skin. I without a doubt have seen improvement in the look and feel of my skin. And I couldn’t be more happy with both my results and the service I receive from Emily. I would highly recommend Emily for any treatments but I can only speak to my experience with the acne clinic program.

What an amazing place
From when you walk in the atmosphere is relaxing with amazing flowers design to the walls
But the massage is no less than the décor
I was lucky to have a Swedish deep tissue massage
Strong relaxing and refreshing
Than I went for siesta…
Thank u Renne and the team

I have very sensitive skin and had my first Oxygen facial at this spa. It was pretty amazing, like cool liquid cotton balls on your face and it just felt healthy. And it sure was. She took the time to ask about my skin and gave me a great lesson on skincare (wouldn’t let me leave till she put on a 50SPF after the treatment). Then, I went to Vegas and I did an Oxygen facial at a very expensive hotel/​resort spa (thinking this is great) and it was nothing like what I experienced at Kingston. Spa Kingston just does the best Oxygen facial ever, and I just think they really care. Big recommendation, best San Diego secret!

Massage with Leslie is out of this world. She has the strongest hands for deep tissue and she’s sensitive, calm and wise.

I went to Emily for lashes and was very impressed how knowledgeable she was with skin care recommendations. She did an amazing job, my lashes look flawless and I will be returning for a facial later this week. Highly recommend!

Amazing place. Had a deep tissue massage during my recent vist. It was a absoutly amazing. Im a very satisfied customer. I would recomend this place to anybody.

Go see Emily Avery!!! She is a BROW ARTIST!!! She is very thorough and precise in her work, not to mention painless! She has been threading my brows for quite sometime now. Do yourself a favor and go see her!

I love this place! Very relaxing. I am a member. Get a facial or a peel every month. My face has improved significantly after just a few visits. The reason for 4 stars as opposed to 5 is I once got a make up done there and it was a huge disappointment. The make up was dull and not much different from if I did it myself. I hope they work on having that improved.

I absolutely loved the facial royal I received recently! My skin looked amazing afterwards and felt great to unclog those pores! I was serviced my this great gal named Christiana who is very personal and sweet. I had been coming to Christiana for a few months for Brazilian waxes and she recommended the facial royal for my skin condition.
Also, such a cute place! Nice and homey, plus champagne!

One of the best facial I’ve had! I’ve lately struggled with acne, but Renee gave me an amazing facial! Her extractions are EXCELLENT, her products that she uses are AMAZING and they really work. They’re not just one of those that smell nice and be socially do nothing.
Me face is all clear and glowing after I come for a facial, I just had to buy the products she used. Since I’ve used them I recommend around 20 people to use them too, because I’ve started to receive a bunch of compliments!
The spa looks amazing and fancy, great scent and a very relaxing atmosphere! I’ll be back :)

I am 9 month pregnant. I got a facial, massage and spray tan in the spa.
First, the massage was wonderful, the lady did it firm as I requested (most massages therapist are afraid from pregnant ladies and they barely touch you) and release all the tightness I had.
The facial was amazingggg!!! Rennee (the owner) was adjusting the bed (since I can’t lay straight for a whole hour), she did microdermabrasion, oxygen, lactic and my face is still glowing.
Oo and she is the best at getting rid of black heads!
The spray tan is organic and have no scent (don’t want my baby to smell chemicals), the lady is super nice and make you feel so comfortable being 9 month pregnant and naked!
I love this place!!! It’s clean and beautiful but more important it is the most professional spa I have ever been!!!
P. s. Now they do eyelashes extension. I might do it before my baby comes

This spa is not only beautiful but omits such positive energy and good vibes, that alone makes it worth a visit. I had the pleasure of getting a massage here during a recent trip to San Diego for a work conference, and was very pleased with the service, professionalism, and experience overall. My 60 minute Swedish Massage was done by Lisa Ritz and she was incredible; her knowledge of sports medicine and her massage technique was exactly what I needed. My next trip back to San Diego will definitely include another visit to Spa Kingston and I will be exploring some of the facials and skin care options as well as another great massage.

Love this place! The atmosphere is always calm and serene, they always greet me warmly upon entering and offer a beverage. I have only seen Laura but I have been to several aestheticians in my years (fairly severe teenage acne and several skin changes since then) and she is great! Laura is always flexible to change the service to whatever would be the most beneficial to my skin during my appointment and she truly listens and empathizes with your skin issues and offers suggestions.
Highly recommend Laura and this spa!

Amazing. If you’ve never had a facial you must get one from Spa Kingston and your skin will be amazing. I particularly love their facial royale. They do a good job with not only cleaning your face, but educating you on how to maintain the cleanliness and do a thorough job at it. They aren’t like other spas who try to up sale you. They make each session worth it and completely relaxing. Clean, friendly, and professional. Get a free consultation and boom your appointment.

A beautiful oasis tucked in a welcoming entrance off 5^th ave in south Banker’s Hill.
I have been finally convinced of the benefits and enjoyment of a well performed massage in a calm, clean and modern spa.
Very friend receptionist signs you in and brings you back to the waiting area for a glass of champagne or some tea while you listen to relaxing background music. Kingston is a very small spa (I think I saw 3, perhaps 4 rooms?), and I enjoyed that intimacy.
Your massage therapist greets you with a bowl of warm water with other goodies to prep your feet. I am already nearing heaven.
Lisa and I had a very thorough conversation about likes, dislikes, goals for the session. She was very knowledgable and patient.
Then comes the smell test to choose your scent during the session :)
The rooms are simple, keeping the distractions to a minimum of you want to keep your eyes open. (Why would you?)
My previous massage experiences never led me to understand everyone’s obsession, so I choose an hour (versus 90″ or 2 hours). Even with this great experience at Kingston, an hour was perfect for me.
No one rushes you from beginning to end, and Lisa even took the time me to show me a few exercises and stretches to do on my own to help with some of my problem areas.
They do have a small selection of fancy spa-​related items for purchase: lotions, etc. and happily, these are not pushed on you.
My only request is that they offer a room to take a nap in afterwards ;)
I will most definitely be back.
