Tantopia Tanning Centers

.ANOTHER TANTOPIA CLOSED WITHOUT WARNING! WARMINSTER IS CLOSED BUT NO «We are closed» sign on the door… no you have to walk up to the door to read a tiny paper. STILL BEING CHARGED AND NO REFUND FOR ONE MONTH UP FRONT! SCAM ARTIST! If I could rate Tantopia on a negative 5 stars– I would. I was a monthly customer paying 61 dollars a month in Ephrata PA and when I moved to Bucks County, I specifically told my realtor I look for a close fitness center and tanning salon when choosing a house to purchase. I paid $ 61 for a month up front only to find that Tantopia Warminster Closed without bothering to call or email anyone about it’s closing. I walked to the door to find a small typed paper with other locations all 25 minutes away or more from my house. Not to mention the entire 10 months in Warminster they would close 45 minutes early or just not open at all on random days. I was charged for $ 61 for THIS month again on March 6, 2015– 6 days after Warminster Location had permanently closed– taking me to May 5 so I can drive 25 minutes for a 12 minute lay down bed– not the 8 minute lay down bed for which I have paid the premium price. The owner should have emailed everyone and refunded their first month and given them the option of choosing to drive the distance or pick another salon. It is pure theft and deception. I have never in my life been so frustrated with a company and I should have switched months ago when I saw them being rude to a customer who decided instantly he wanted to cancel his membership. If this is how the owner runs his «business’ I do not see ANY Tantopia surviving much longer. I can tan at my gym, at my work, at hotels I travel to for work, yet I chose to spend my money on this thief who doesn’t have the common courtesy to even contact his own customers out of what… 9 stores? to tell them that their local salon has closed. Premium Philadelphia Tanning Salon– what a joke. I’d rather go to Hollywood tans who actually remains open until closing time and has extended weekend/​evening hours then EVER join another Tantopia. Not the first Tantopia I have seen shut down randomly and certainly will not be the last.

For Starters, I cannot believe I needed to add this location myself! Goes to show how WACK the Willow Grove /​Warminster area is! God I need to move to the city…
I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS about this place!!! WOW I’m not even kidding! Krysta says this is the place movie stars from Hollywood go to tan when they are in town, I’m totally a believer. I’m currently a member of Planet Beach in Jamison (check out my review) and I love them but…
Here is the story, as I was out shopping one afternoon I was in a near by Beautyland (which is awesome I will also be writing a review for them) and I seen a young girl, with the darkest tan i have ever seen, being its only the beginning of April i knew it was fake. I asked her where she tanned, since I’m new to the area I’m still finding new places. she said TANTOPIA right down the street! Awesome so I just had to check it out.
Now being that I’m 27 years old I felt a little old pulling up, ekkkk, as there were about 4 little girls between the ages of 20 – 24, tan as can be with there poker straight hair and belly chains. The first girl greeted me behind the counter was named Krysta, I told her I never been to this salon and could she show me around? She was very polite and didn’t huff and puff with an attitude that she had to do some work. Trust me, coming from New Orleans I’m used to this on a daily biases, she showed me pricing and all the beds. Now as she was filling me in I couldn’t help but think these girls are soooooo tan EVERY SINGLE one of them. Got me thinking I NEVER see this outcome at Planet Beach, Hmmm whats the catch??? and we are not talking the crazy orange tan I have pics to prove– its a deep brown tan.
So these two lay down beds they have, called Lotus /​Classic 600 is like nothing I NEVER seen before! They were huge like double the size of planet beach. they have different settings, you can lower the intensity of all the bulbs not just facial. I paid $ 14 for one session, I’m not a student so no discount.
I would have to say the prices are very reasonable $ 44 per month (for the lay down spaceship beds, they do have cheaper prices for stand ups but I don’t stand up, I have a hard enough time getting up) BUT she says your locked in for three months, that’s nothing!
They also have Mystic Tan at $ 15 a pop über cheap.
There gratefulness doesn’t end there, as I was so excited to get home and Unilocal about this location I left my $ 900 Movado watch in the room!!! My heart sank as it had been a few hours before I finally realized, being from NOLA I have no trust in folks at all. I thought there is NO-​WAY that watch is still there so feeling like a JACKASS, I decided to call just to see. What do you know? The girl that was tanning after me turned it in!!! Can you believe it. I was sooooooo thrilled, I wanted to leave a reward as I was rummaging thru my wallet the little girl says what are you doing??? were not going to take your money, but I insisted, she could have easily kept my watch and sell it on eBay!!! She insited that’s nice of you but no, were not going to accept it. Now these are young girls we are talking about! Very proper and mature. I will definitely be going back, not to mention from one tanning session, I’m tanner than if I were to tan the whole month somewhere else.
The only cons I would point out is if you are older you may feel over the hill, stick with Planet Beach.
Now this is one of the best tanning salons I have found in my area. I cannot wait to go back.
One more thing, there is this amazing tanning lotion by Australian Gold Krystal or Crystal (not sure of the spelling) Planet Beach sells this item for $ 120.00!!! Now I’m not saying its not worth it because it TOTALLY IS the best tanning lotion I have found in my 10 years of tanning. BUT you can get this off of AMAZON. Com for about $ 36.00 Its out of this world.
