Today was the second massage I've had at Oceanova. When we walked in, the wonderful aroma is fantastic. Very relaxing. They carry candles from a local maker. The staff was expecting us and is very friendly. My masseuse was Wendy and I think she gave me the best massage I've ever had. I cannot recommend enough. Great experience. We will definitely be going back.

My massage from Wendy was absolutely excellent! She got knots out of my back that have been plaguing me for years in just one 90min session. I highly recommend her to anyone. All of the staff are professional and polite. It was an extremely clean and relaxing atmosphere. Will be coming back for sure!

I just had what I would classify as one of my best massages today. Denise was fabulous! I almost fell asleep on the table. I carry my stress and tension in my shoulders, by the time Denise was finished, I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off my shoulders. I will be making a return visit! Thank you.

I always have a great experience at Oceanova Spa. The spa waiting area has a nice relaxing vibe and everyone is so nice and friendly. I've been going there for over a year and consider my monthly facials a 'have to' and part of my health and stress-reducing regime. I highly recommend them, especially from Stacy! The spa also sell really nice skincare products too.

I came to Bethany Beach for a weekend getaway to de-stress. When I came across Oceanova's de-stress massage, I had to give it a try. Stacie did not disappoint. I left completely satisfied with the service she provided and will definitely be returning in the near future. The aromatherapy smell throughout the spa is pleasing and tranquil. This place is pure serenity!

This spa is everything I look for in a massage. Very nice selection of treatments. Good experience massage therapists. They listen to your wants, ask appropriate questions and will make suggestions. The environment is welcoming, cozy, relaxing, and most important to me, soothing. I have only used the Ocean View location.

Worst manicure I've ever had. It was a gel manicure & the technician painted over my cuticles. It looks like a 4-year old did this. She did say she does not like gel nails. Not sure why. The room was very dimly lit. Maybe she couldn't see well. Then we had to wait.because there was ONLY ONE gel drying machine & it was in use. Really? I almost feel bad writing this because the technician was very nice. But I will not return. So disappointed. Lovely place & it smells delicious when you walk in. Maybe we will try the massages.

Friendly happy professional peaceful place! I highly recommend Denise for therapeutic massage -- knowledgeable and aware, so issues are addressed with sensitivity and strength! Lurana does an incredible job with pedicures for my 92yo father. he walks better with each one! I am happy with Ashley's manicures. her attention to detail is impressive! Lovely spa. I need to try a facial soon. Friends say they're wonderful at Oceanova!

My visit to Oceanova Spa was a real pleasure. I was warmly greeted and had no wait for Carolyn to do my massage. She was very knowledgable and we sat down and discussed my situation or problem. She addressed each area and took her time with me. She is a very talented therapist and she was very congenial. I will definitely go back and she will be my go to girl. Try it.you will love it!

I have been seeing Denise for massages for several years and can't recommend her more highly. Her knowledge of the body, muscles, nerves, fascia and all the other complex stuff in there is amazing. And she teaches me how things work and why stuff hurts while she's making it better. She's also just a phenomenal human with a beautiful heart.
I genuinely enjoy our chats almost as much as how my body feels when I leave the table. She brings a great balance to the massage and even though she is doing deep tissue and trigger work, I have never once left feeling that "I've been bruised" feeling you get most places. The staff at Oceanova is lovely, too. Always pleasant, organized and friendly. I highly recommend.

This was a first trip to Oceanova. I don't get massages very often, but must say that Stacie was really great. I have a chronic stiff and painful neck and she was able to focus and help me with it! She asked about areas that were troublesome and knew exactly how to handle them. I would recommend her and Oceanova to anyone seeking massages. Thanks.

Went to the Bethany Beach location this weekend for the 4-hour Total Transformation package. Incredible. Best massage I've ever had, hands down. The facial left my skin beautifully supple and soft and I was so relaxed during my body scrub I fell asleep on the table. Bonus points for having light, refreshing snacks waiting for me each time I left the room to switch to a different treatment. I'll be making this a regular part of my vacation for sure.

This was my very first customized massage. It was a very good first experience with Denise. We talked before she began. She listened to my concerns and I felt very much at ease during my massage. Everything felt so relaxing from the soft lights, to the meditation CD and the warm coverings. It was an hour of pampering that is already calling me to visit there again.
I met Rose Ann, the owner before leav ing. We chatted and she told me about a special spa evening benefit for Justin's Place. It takes place at the Marriott on Bethany Beach boardwalk. For more information call Oceanova. Ticket are $45. I want to thank my wonderful son and his fiance for the gift certificate that brought me to Oceanova Spa. I rec ommend giving gifts like this that make people happy and also promotes wellness.

This place is amazing! This was my second time and I'm so impressed with the quality and skills of the massage therapists. This time I got a trigger point massage with Denise and she really was an expert. My mom got a hot stone massage and my sister in law got a custom massage. They too were very impressed! Will look forward to coming back soon!

Oceanova is my favorite spa in the area. I have had many massages and facials here over the years and have always left very satisfied. If you need a serious massage, go here, it's worth the money. The masseuses really know what they're doing and have had years of experience. They spend ample time getting to the heart of your issues and are very caring and responsive to your needs. Stacie and Lillia are especially great if you need a heavy handed masseuse for serious neck and back issues. I've also had many wonderful facials here-- they have a wide array of services and many natural products, many of which I've purchased and would recommend. Stacey the aesthetician is very knowledgeable and a delight.
The owner and staff of oceanova are also always very friendly and go out of their way to make your experience extremely pleasant and relaxing. If you want a great massage or facial, don't waste your time going anywhere else!

This is a nice place for a 1 hour vacation anytime of year! The staff are friendly and talented. The environment is very serene, professional and the prices are ok. My wife and I try to get here once a quarter. Additionally, they do gift certificates right from their website, so I generally include one in the wife's birthday, Valentine's and Christmas cards. Naturally you have your choice of the many types of treatment from which to select. -Enjoy

While down in Delaware for the holidays, I really wanted to do something relaxing. I figured a massage couldn't hurt and called around to five different places trying to get an appointment that day. Not only did Oceanova accommodate me, but they called in a masseuse to come in just so that they wouldn't lose my business. That was certainly a great start.
When I arrived, the waiting area was very comfortable, well-decorated (comfy but not too new-agey) and had peaceful music playing in the background. The receptionist was very friendly, had me fill out a form, and told me the massage therapist would be right with me. Carol, my LMT, was incredible. She was friendly from the get-go, and we had a nice chat on the way down the hall.
She took me to the private room and started by asking me what my goals were for the sessions, if I had any areas of focus, etc. It seems so obvious, but in the 50+ massages I've gotten, that conversation has happened just a handful of times. The room was perfect. The music was relaxing, the bed was soft and warm, the head support was extremely comfortable (always a crap shoot), and I began to feel at ease immediately.
As for the massage itself, it was the ideal balance of pressure and relaxation. I actually fell asleep for a few minutes, something I have never done before. Carol was highly skilled and I felt so great when I left. I would highly recommend Oceanova to anyone in the area!

Came with a group of friends. Staff wonderful and very helpful in scheduling all 7 of us. I had a mani pedi that was delightful. Technician professional and pleasant to be with. Waiting area relaxing with generous offering of healthy refreshments. Clean and comfortable. Will update review once I hear how the other services went. Here is update: my friends all had massages and facials.
Everyone LOVED them. One friend who needs extreme deep tissue work reported it was the best massage she has ever had. Therapist customized and perfected the deep tissue work to meet her needs. Other friends came out of room smiling and saying they wanted to come back tomorrow.

Let me start off by saying that staff here is very friendly, kind and accommodating. They were very good at getting us in on short notice at the same time for multiple people and multiple services, so kudos! That's pretty much the only plus to this place. I went for the sugar scrub and a mani/pedi. Like I said, my service professionals were very nice, but my scrubber told me this was the first scrub she'd done at this place and that there was no methodology, and also there was no facility to rinse yourself off after. I'm of the thinking that if you don't have a shower, don't offer scrubs.
My nail tech was again, very sweet and professional, but my mani and pedi were both pretty weak. I still had rough cuticles when I left, my feet were barely exfoliated and there was polish all over the place. For the prices ($95 for the scrub and $60ish for the mani/pedi), I expect better. Period. I'm hesitant to diss a locally owned business, but having to repeatedly face the dilemma of "is this place any good?" while on vacation leads me to want to advise other future beach-goers to skip this spa. Spend your $150 getting hammered at Seacrets.
