Tonkoon Massage & Nail in Phuket is a one‑stop salon offering Thai and oil massages, foot massage, along with nail services and beauty treatments. It’s a convenient option for couples and families: while one person unwinds with a massage, the other can get a manicure/pedicure or take care of their hair.
The salon is generally clean and calm, with air conditioning in the main area. Before a massage, your feet may be washed, and after the session they usually serve ginger tea with cookies — sometimes also water and light snacks. The staff are friendly and try to accommodate requests on the spot, but the therapists’ English can be limited, so it helps to use gestures to confirm pressure level and focus areas.
Their strongest offerings are relaxing foot and back treatments, which can leave your legs and lower back feeling noticeably lighter. That said, the experience depends on the individual therapist: occasionally the technique is too gentle, requests for firmer pressure aren’t always followed, and some treatments may feel painful.
The manicure/pedicure and nail extensions section stands out for good value and precise work (including gel, French, and acrylic). However, wear time can be inconsistent, and more complex extensions may take longer than expected. Card payment is available.
