My boyfriend, offered to purchase a massage appointment for his visiting mother and sister. I chose Oasis because I had been to there former Union Square location and I didn't want to take the time to research. I made the appointments via phone. My boyfriend gets on the phone to confirm the use of his credit card for the gift certificates. We make it clear that these appointments were a gift ...
Read More On Citysearch iloverock 2/14/2010 - Such an incredible disappointment!....In this economy, you'd expect that retaining a client is the one main objective for any business, but especially within the luxury industry. Not with Oasis Day Spa!
Where shall I start:
1. Continual changes to the Gift card policy without ANY notification or recourse for the client.
2. Unsanitary bathroom and shower stalls.
3. Rude customer service - including the owner! What happene...

I must say that Evelyn is by far the best. Not only does my skin look absolutely amazing after I see her, but she always has honest and helpful advice about how to improve the condition of my skin at home. Not to mention, her facial is more relaxing and therapeutic than any massage I've ever ha...

I venture to Oasis Day Spa at least twice a month, and the staff there is nothing but FRIENDLY, COURTEOUS, and KIND. I think that "micma" has serious issues that only a trained professional can handle. Do you even know how it is to work in retail in NYC? Our motto is "If you see something, say something" and if you were acting suspicious, then Oasis ha...

Unlike other establishments in the same industry, Oasis' only concern is making a profit and places no value on building and cherishing relations with former customers. In all my years of living in NYC, I have never been treated in such a disrespectful manner and would not wis...

The service is good, but you pay for an experience. Now you feel like a number in a factory. Most disappointing is the lack of cleanliness in the showers and locker room. Equally annoying is the fact that it is hard to find a locker because of the crowd and the fact th...

Huge pet peeve during a facial. When I told their staff about my shortened facial they did not care at all.

In mid Febuary I decided to do a facial just before a trip, for give my face a much needed treat. Reading reasonably good reviews on Citysearch, I decided to try Oasis Spa. Scheduling it last minute, I was told it'd be done by Dgamara (or some name like that). She was friendly and explained the procedure. But when she started, she would message around my eye area with very high speed a couple of ...

Later that week, my skin peeled from the rash and dehydration. When I left my facial, the technician i...

She talked to me for the whole hour. I just wanted to relax but she wouldn?t be quiet. Then when it was over she talked to me for another 5 minutes about supplements that she wanted me to buy at Whole Foods. I would definitely not recommend anyone going to her for a facial.

I've gone to J Sisters & many others and none of them compare. She uses a special wax that really minimizes the pain and she is a perfectionist! I also had a wax with Georgette one time because Lizzy was on vacation - and like the previous review, experienced one of the worst waxings ever.

Oasis was hands down the worst ever. I saw a coupon on Citysearch and after reading the reviews and checking out the website, I felt it would be a great choice. WRONG. I was taken into the massage room, which stunk like old vegetable oil, and saw on the bed a single, tiny (!) bath towe...

Read More On Citysearch jonahr 1/16/2007 - A very nice experienceMy husband got me a spa package for my birthday which consisted of a manicure, pedicure and a massage. Basic treatments, yes, but Oasis on Park did a great job from beginning to end. The staff made me feel very welcome and the people who worked with me were wonderful. I felt very refreshed after my visit and highly recommend Oasis

Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing one. I signed up for a scrub w/ vichy water. I should have been told not to make plans after the session since I left the room with my hair soaked to the roots. In a very flippant manner I was told that brushes and hair dryers were available. You can imagine how upset I ...
Read More On Citysearch anilda 1/9/2007 - What a great massage!I had a great experience at Oasis. After a long aggravating day at work, Oasis was just what the doctor ordered. I was greeted kindly by the person at the front desk. Everything was right on time and the facilities were very clean. The massage itself was wonderful, hitting all the sore spots on my lower back. I've heard a lot of nice things about Oasis and now I know why, Highy recommended
Read More On Citysearch tralfazz 1/1/2007 - Be truthful and watch what happensThis was my third trip to Oasis, and I remembered why I always go back. The front desk staff was polite and efficient.
More importantly, I had made an appointment for a deep cleaning facial. The aesthetician took one look at my skin, and said ?you don?t need it.? She changed my treatment on the spot, and it was for a LESS EXPENSIVE one. How often does that happen? No up-sale, no pushing prod...
Read More On Citysearch skaterlady 12/25/2006 - Best massage everyI get a lot of massages, but none compare to the job done by Beth. She was very attentive and receptive to feedback. I felt like a new person afterwards. The atmosphere of Oasis is very relaxing. I loved using their sauna before and after my treatment. Their front desk is a little disorganized though, and I came in on a weekday afternoon, so I can't even image what it would be like when really bu...

The relaxation room is great with many different teas, water and snacks ( dried fruit). The room is round and dimly lit. They have plenty of magazines to browse through. The locker room was very nice with tons of ametities as well. The steam room was a nice touch. My massage therapist wasnt very pleasant ...
Read More On Citysearch diankiny 12/8/2006 - Great ExperienceI hada facial and massage at Oasis and it was all a great experience. Ariel was the facialist and she was really sweet and also very knowledgeable. She recommended some great products the Spa offers but wasn't pushy at all. I have extremely sensitive skin and have had problems in the past getting facials, but Ariel knew exactly what was going on and how to work with my skin type.
I had a mass...
Read More On Citysearch spa_lvr 12/3/2006 - Very DisappointingI was looking forward to my facial but was quite let down. I had a facial with Mimi and she really did not want to be bothered. In the actual 50 minutes she was in the room (for a 60 minute facial) she was more interested in washing the bowl three times or writing down a "prescription." She left the room for about 5 minutes to "get samples" and came back with two small packets. I will not b...
Read More On Citysearch julieandben 12/1/2006 - Bad bikini waxOasis spa is a very nice spa - good customer service, relaxing ambience and a comprehensive spa menu; unfortunately, the bikini wax I received was a disappointment. The staff who did my wax did not trim before waxing, which made the process quite painful (I have a relatively high endurance of pain, so I didn't complain at the time, but it definitely hurt more than my previous waxes at other salon...

This is a clean, relaxing place with a friendly staff.
Read More On Citysearch bettyo70 11/17/2006 - Wonderful experienceWe got a 60 minute side by side couples massage and it was amazing. My masseuse was very nice and did a great job, I felt like butter at the end of it. (only bad thing was that it sounded there was hammering or pounding going on somewhere else in the building for abou 5 minutes - but I was able to zone it out anyway b/c I felt so relaxed) Locker room was very clean and big. Had the sauna all to m...
Read More On Citysearch nycpsu 11/6/2006 - Customer Service lackingI've been to this spa before and have had a wonderful experience. Their relaxation room is like a dim-lit lounge with plenty of reading material and drinks and snacks to enjoy while you wait for your therapist. The atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable, however my last encounter left much to be desired. I had a 60-minute deep tissue with a therapist who chewed gum during the entire session. In add...

I was then instructed to wait in the comfortable relaxation room. The room was supplied with tea, various dried fruit, snacks and water. My masseuse asked me prior to beginning what I wanted to focus on and she did just that. The massage was extremely re...

Read More On Citysearch monica_simpson 10/10/2006 - best facial everI have had a few facials at Oasis. Each time I go, they get better and better. The professionalism in the aestheticians is wonderful. I love the extra touch that each technician brings to the facial.
I highly recommend this spa for facials.
Read More On Citysearch fischetti 10/4/2006 - Invigorating massage!I was walking around the trade show floor at the Javits Center during the Spa and Resort Expo. I came across the Oasis Day Spa chair massage booth. In a just a few minutes, I was seated in Phil K.'s massage chair. A massage therapist myself, I am rather particular about how I like my massages. Phil K. was fantastic. He shook out my arms and hands and worked pressure points along my hands and fore...

Read More On Citysearch jenniferannnn 8/4/2006 - The worst Reservationist and Customer Service I've experiencedhi,
I have made numerous attempts to schedule an
appointment at Oasis for my 3 girlfriends and I for
the past 2 weeks. Everytime I call them, I get a
different receptionist that gives me conflicting
information. Now, they say they will be short on
staff for my appointment I supposedly made with them
for early September. What is the meaning of short on
staff? I think it is perfectly ...
Read More On Citysearch widdleboo 8/1/2006 - Wonderful experienceI had the citrus scrub and a 45 min facial. Both women were excellent and very very nice. The scrub was heavenly, more than I expected. The facial was great as well. What a beautiful place.

I asked for a sample to test with first(b/c I sometimes turn orange with certain products) and they gave it to me - even though I had to call 5 times and was told different things each time I called.
The clinician was good and made me feel comfortable during what is kind of a bizarre experience (basically naked being rubbed d...
Read More On Citysearch kweifei 6/14/2006 - I only go back because of ONE person ...Shatelle is an incredibly talented and amazing facialist. She is the only reason I continue to return to this spa. My first impression of Oasis was unpromising - staff at the front desk is RUDE and simply not interested in you. I've been to many spas and never have I been asked to pay for the service before receiving the service. At my first visit, after a very weak greeting, I was given the ...
Read More On Citysearch melissa_nyc 4/5/2006 - I'm HookedHard to understand some of the negative comments I've read about Oasis. I have now gone 4 times for a variety of services and have found Oasis to be consistently a great experience. I particularly enjoyed how nice everyone is, and the massages and facial services are an exceptional value compared to other high end spa's I've visited in NYC. I will admit that I've called to schedule sometimes and ...
Read More On Citysearch sandilovesnyc 3/4/2006 - Overrated but niceI've been a couple times, and I agree with all the other reviews that the staff there is very rude, snobbish, and unprofessional.
Bikini wax - I've done it a couple times, and not's not that good here. For me, applying pressure is important, but they didn't. And when I asked them to, they kinda mumbled something and barely did it.
Body massage - it's OK, but not worth their price
Reflexology...
Read More On Citysearch newyorker_jy 2/28/2006 - Best Facial EverI was very pleased with my facial, and the woman who did it (Evelyn? Vivian?) I'm bad with names, but the facial was so relaxing that I actually fell asleep a couple times. My skin is still glowing a day later.
The only thing I didn't like is the relaxation room- where you go and wait to be called for your service. I would have been more comfortable if it was only women, as I was surrounded by ...
Read More On Citysearch denvernicole 2/16/2006 - unbelievable attitude -- stay away!First, got 2 calls within one hour, by two different people, to confirm (no organization!). Woman sounded halfasleep and gruff and ignored my question about the cross-street (nice). On both calls, plus a third confirmation call, I was told, sternly, that tipping must be in cash. Lest we forget, Oasis also has a large sign at the front desk not stating "Welcome" or some positive message but sta...

Read More On Citysearch mcb17 2/7/2006 - Too overrated!I have seen a lot of advertisement about Oasis Spa everywhere. So I was very excited about a gift certificate given to me for Christmas; but I found the deep tissue massage to be so average even after I explained to be too soft many times, then, the massage just became "weird" as if the therapist got offended. The ambience is nice but I am more interested on a great service.
Read More On Citysearch hansensch 2/2/2006 - Nice atmosphere, but disappointing massage...Oasis was one of a couple spas recommended by colleagues when I mentioned I'd like a massage while visiting New York. I liked the atmosphere overall, and the staff that checked me in was very friendly.
I was disappointed though in the actual massage. The therapist was friendly, but she seemed new or at least unfamiliar with the treatment (Muscle Meltdown Massage). This "specialty massage" end...

I was feeling a little weary of going after I read some of the reviews Oasis had gotten.
