Palm Beach Tan

This place used to be called «TanLine» and just changed ownership 1 – 2 weeks before writing this review. I signed up when it was TanLine, so I’m not sure if anything is different now but this is my experience. They have a wide variety of tanning beds that seem to be clean and similar strength as other places I’ve tried. However, they are on the more expensive side and they try to upsell you like crazy.
When I wanted to purchase a package they recommended I tan first and then pick a package, locking me in before showing me any pricing. I said no thanks, I want to see your package options before I commit to anything. The girl went over their very confusing options very quickly and inaccurately at that, recommending the most expensive one. She skipped over the normal option of purchasing X number tans for $x.xx until I specifically asked for it. I could never even imagine package more convoluted membership and package options, go in and see for yourself. I literally spent at least 15 – 20 minutes of my limited lunch hour trying to get a normal package and making sure I wouldn’t be swindled. I felt like I was at a cheap car dealership. Unless you come in knowing exactly what you want and have the time and patience to decipher their membership options, you’ll be ripped off for sure.
The first two times I went I was told that max time is 10 min for the bed I picked, but the third time I was told 12 min for the SAME BED. I did not like feeling ripped off for those 4 tanning minutes.
This last point may not be a negative for many, and possibly not intentional, but they have skinny mirrors in both of the rooms I was in, which feels like they are trying to deceive you into thinking you look better than you actually do when you go to their salon. Thankfully I don’t need the skinny mirrors for sell confidence so they are just weird to me.
The one good thing about this place is that the beds don’t automatically turn on after 5 min like at other places I’ve been to, which is dangerous for your eyes and shouldn’t even be allowed. You have as much time to put lotion on as you want.
I go here because it’s the only place close to work but can’t wait until a better option becomes available.
