In 2010 on Market Street in the City of Poughkeepsie, Kiriaki (Kiki) Pertesis, licensed massage therapist and esthetician opened a small one-room spa called The Little Owl Spa. Her dream was to create small-scaled luxury spa focused on honesty, knowledge and customer care. In a smaller space, each service could be customized to fit the needs of every client. No one would be rushed out the door or forced to purchase products they don’t need just to fulfill a demanded quota. The Little Owl Spa on Market St, fulfilled every one of her wishes!

After 7 years of building a large clientele and adding a couple practitioners to her team, Kiki found another location that was slightly bigger and close to home! Maintaining her original vision, The Little Owl Spa at 214 Hooker Ave is perfectly sized with 2 treatment rooms, a relaxation lounge, brow bar, small retail area and free parking! By keeping services simple, customized and honest, The Little Owl Spa is one of the most visited spas in Poughkeepsie receiving awards from the Best of Hudson Valley in Best Waxing in 2018 and Best Day Spa in 2021.

Our team consists of talented, loving, fun and experienced estheticians and massage therapists. One of the things we all have in common is our great customer service. We aim to please and to make sure you leave feeling absolutely fabulous and loved.
