BEWARE. old bulbs, terrible staff, charge your card $50 if you cancel!  5 Star Rating - World class

BEWARE!! AWFUL!! The staff is very rude and will HARASS you constantly to try to get you to buy more lotions and to sign up friends (as if you work for Planet Beach)!! They are also all VERY stupid and will screw your account all the time.... and they LIE about perks they will give if you bring in referrals. They sell you a "VIP" membership that is twice the price of the regular...and there is ONLY 1 VIP BED!!! So, basically, you never get to use it, unless you make an appointment, and even then the staff is too stupid to keep track of appointments and there is someone tanning in the ONE vip bed when you arrive. THE MAJOR PROBLEM is that the owner LIES consistently about getting new bulbs for the beds. WARNING - you will NOT get any color at this salon. I don't think the bulbs have ever been changed since it opened. The owner is VERY CHEAP!!! Also, ANOTHER WARNING... there is a $50 cancellation fee!!!! That is ABSURD. NO tanning salons charge you for terminating!!! I'm recommending that everyone I know cancel their membership there and sign up elsewhere... it's worth the $50 because you waste a whole lot more paying for tans that don't get you ANY color!!!

Awesome tanning and spa! 5 Star Rating - World class

I used to tan at Darque tan as well. What I hated about that place was the huge turn over in staff and the prices. It was never a personal experience and the staff was rude and the prices were outrageous. The "upgrade" prices were ridiculous. I ended up spending a fortune there. At Planet Beach, it's the same staff and has been for some time now. Each and everyone of them know me by first and last name and I am well taken care of every time I am in the spa. I never pay upgrade fees because the have and unlimited pricing plan that's phenomenally cheap. And the beds are amazing. Definately try it out. They also have really cool spa pieces that don't keep you tied up all day like a regular day spa. Try the hydration station! It's awesome!

Pros: Staff and prices.
Cons: Absolutely none!
