2025-10-28I had a massage with Anna last Friday after a long break. She is the best! It was such a pleasure. I walked away feeling so much lighter, and my body felt amazing. I won't stay away so long this time. Hurry in for a great experience.

2025-09-27Christine is an amazing hair stylist. Very intuitive, picked up on my (somewhat disorganized) account of what I wanted for my hair - and created a style that is perfect for my hair, personality and lifestyle. I am going to stick with her for as long as she practices her craft!

2025-06-17Akari - Simply the Best in New England! I cannot recommend Akari enough โ it's truly the best spa I've ever visited in New England! I've had the pleasure of visiting twice, and each experience was absolutely fantastic. My first visit was a full day of pampering, and it was pure bliss. The day was packed with amazing spa procedures, including a rejuvenating massage, a refreshing facial, and perfectly done manicures and pedicures. To top it all off, a delicious lunch was provided, and we enjoyed wine throughout the day. It was an incredibly relaxing and luxurious experience. My second visit was a half-day trip with a friend, and once again, we were both incredibly impressed. The care and attention we received were exceptional, making us feel completely spoiled and refreshed. Both times, my friend and I left feeling incredibly satisfied with the high level of service and personal care. If you're looking for an outstanding spa experience with top-notch treatments and incredible attention to detail, Akari Spa is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!
