Bridal parties are not welcome at Endota Spa. The bride booked and paid in advance the day before, and even took the health questionnaire home so her bridal party could fill it in the night before, so that we could all spend more precious time together at our penthouse!!! :)

When she arrived at 0900 and others trickled in at 0905, the focus became solely on TIME TIME TIME, we were reminded frequently that we were late, that it was eating into our appointment time to the point we became to feel like naughty school children and not the beautiful goddesses that we were supposed to be turning into.

The staff at Endota could also not fathom how or why a bridal party would not want their toenails all painted in the exact same shade. We watched it eat into our appointment time as they scrambled back and forth trying to find extra bottles of polish so at least 2 of the bridesmaids could have the same shade. In the end they were unable to accommodate this but we all did love our shades in the end.

The bride was already in tears at this point. And do you think any of us found our treatments after this point relaxing? No. Not in the slightest.

But this weekend was 9 years in the making, even post-phoned by a year because of COVID, so there is no way the incompetence of Endota Spa was going to rain on our parade.

PS: We got our manicures done at BerryGoodNails later that day and I'll be giving that salon 10/10 reviews.
