I visited the Shades of Love store on June 1, 2021 looking for a gift for a friend of mine. I was very impressed with the presence of your store, and the beautiful display of the merchandise.When I arrived to the store, there were no other customers inside, and the cashier named Rose (Rosemary) helped me with a few questions I had.She was very pleasant, friendly and knowledgeable of the merchandise.I would highly recommend that anyone looking for quality merchandise at reasonable prices, to visit your store and/or your website.Many thanks to Rose for her outstanding customer service!!Karen H
I loved the selection here. I found exactly what I was looking for. Rosemary was very helpful.
The best adult store in the city, you dont fell weird about buying items in that store. Everyone on staff is amazing from jessika to the owner. The have great mystery bags that is a little surprise to spice up the bed life. By far the best shop in San Antonio.
Really loved this little shop! Devin was super helpful and this was my first time here and I really loved the vibe and music. I felt very comfortable and they have a unique yet awesome variety of different items. I’ll definitely be going back again.
Rita and her staff are very kind and helpful. They make your experience in the shop comfortable and fun.
Devon was wonderful! Knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the business and the products they offer. Will definitely become a regular customer. Looking forward to attending the various classes!!
Went in 1/22/21 evening. Lady behind the counter didnt acknowledge me for over 15 minutes. Only said hi then was talking on the phone the next 20 minutes while i browsed.Never once asked me if i was looking for anything or if I needed assistance.It has the facade of a nice place but without good employees its just nothing special. Things on display are nowhere to be found new in box.
Excellent customer service! Knowledgeable staff. I will definitely go back and I recommend it to all my friends.
I have been coming to Shades of Love for years . Staff is awesome . Great customer service and very knowledgeable. Devin was excellent.
Great serviceVery easy going & answered all our questions
Great prices, great selection and friendly staff
Great customer service! Great variety! Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The store has a sexy atmosphere. The ladies are very friendly and helpful. Made it fun to shop there. I will definitely be back for more toys. Thank you for a great experience.
Great selection, very organized and Devin was very helpful, i definitely recommend Shades of Love!
There is so many things I didnt know I wanted and needed.
I love Shades of Love! The store is so classy and clean. Rosemary is always very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful when I come to the store. Im a regular visitor and I love the wide variety and selection of everything from the lingerie to the toys and the fun bachelorette party supplies. Im so happy to have a safe, clean, upscale place to come to for any of my needs. I highly recommend it!
Excellent Customer Service. Staff is very knowledgeable and super friendly willing to help out anyway possible. There is a wide variety of products, lingerie, personal and party supplies. Its our go to place. Ask Questions and they will have the perfect answer.
Perfect for first time lingerie shoppers!
Devin was very helpful and store was very clean and organized
Love this store so much! The owner (Rose especially) and the employees are always so helpful and polite. This store is extremely amazing and I would recommend it to anyone either experienced or new.
This is one of the best shops I have ever been to. Rosemary was professional, kind, and helpful. They also have amazing plus size options which can be hard to find. Many of their options are flattering which has not been my experience with lingerie from other retailers. They carry an excellent selection. The quality is also very good with a great price.
Lorraine assisted me when I visited. I appreciated her not only showing me what I needed, but educating me on the safest brands. Her personality made the experience way more enjoyable, and I didnt feel judged like I have in other adult stores. There is a great selection for everyone and the prices are great for the quality of products.
I wrote a story for the San Antonio Current about this place about 10 years ago, and it’s been my go-to shop ever since. Well-stocked, well-run, female friendly. Don’t be shy about asking questions or expressing preferences! Rosemary is always helpful and fun to talk to. It’s an inspiring, educational woman-run business and I recommend it completely!
This place is a very disappointing establishment! I went in a instantly smelt mildew, almost like wet dog. There’s gnats flying around everywhere (I assume from the food the girl was eating behind the register). The cashier just sat down the entire time never offered help, had their phone out the entire time. Lingerie looked so cheap and old. The toys looked like they were in super cheap packaging. I would never shop here. I would give Zero stars honestly.
I love coming here especially when rosemary is there. she helped me and my boyfriend find some.great toys and she is easy to talk to in general. if your looking for a great comfortable place to buy toys and everything else in between please come here !!!!!
Rose was great! Helped with our questions and recommended toys for me and bf. Definitely recommend.
I love this store!! Small, intimate setting with friendly, knowledgeable staff to help with any type of purchase. Rosemary was super helpful with my very personal questions. Thank you Shades of Love!!
If you are looking for a place that is totally knowledgeable and helpful, this is the place to go. Shades of Love has been there since 2000, and its so nice to know the staff can be so helpful. And, it is a beautiful boutique!
I have been to this store a few times and have had a good experience. Very friendly staff and a tasteful variety of products. Lost of sexy clothing for women. I would recommend it to spice up any relationship. Also great for the sexy Halloween costumes, it is never to early to shop around for that. Have fun!
I love this store when I shop there I always feel welcome with greetings and the ladies there are very nice. Very friendly and experience with there customer service the shades of the love makes you feel at home :)YesGreat adult store with best selection of lingerie.Felt very comfortable shopping there.
The store is great! And Rosemary gave me excellent customer service! She was very sweet and kind and helped me find exactly what I was looking for ;) definitely recommend this store and ask for Rosemary!
On my recent visit to Shades of Love, Rosemary helped me pick out several great items for gifts. She even helped me find something fun for myself. Definitely a great place visit!
I visited this store a few weeks ago, looking for something that I really liked online. They didn’t have it in the store so I asked about it and the owner was extremely helpful and ordered it had it shipped to store within a few days. I’ve been to several adult stores before, this is by far The BESTone I’ve been to. Not only are the prices very cheap compared to other stores the staff is extremely helpful and they really care about helping you find what you’re looking for if they don’t have it don’t get it for you! And they were give you the price that is online instead of the price in store. If I could rite them with six stars I would. I will definitely be back to visit them
Always a great place when looking for a gift for your special someone. Even more fun when you just want to treat yourself. 😉 From the first time I walked in I felt like the woman there were very helpful in helping me feel comfortable. Never a full moment when Im in there.
I love this store. It has a very inviting and relaxing atmosphere. Quality products. Rosemary was amazing and assisted me in finding what I was looking for.
Rosemary was AMAZING, helped both myself and my best friend out and we got everything we were looking for and more! She was super friendly and very knowledgeable!
Was taught a wonderful and informative class on orally pleasing your man.
The store is very welcoming and the staff is willing to answer any questions we have. The toy quality are amazing. I highly recommend coming here.
This is the most amazing adult store I have ever been in. Comfortable u dont feel any pressure has a womans touch, it does not feel as it would with stores that is run by men u dont feel there eyes following you. It felt like a visit to a friends house, very light very open and feminine. I would give this place 10 stars if I could :)
OMG... My absolute new favorite beautique and it snuck up on me as I was driving by so made a u-turn and figured I would just run in and check it out as I do every other I come across. Upon entering I was immediately impressed with cleanliness as well as presentation and downright cuteness of this boutique. As the owner came out with the friendliest welcome Ive encountered by far. I believe her name was Mary Ann? Oops but last name was Arguello because not only did I purchase something but I also got her Sons card from his tattoo shop LOL all in all it was a quick pit stop but will definitely be going back. Best find by far.
Always friendly and helpful every visit. Good selection of items. My go to store.
This place is great. took my wife to do a little shopping and didnt feel dirty! They even have a web site that you can order from the comfort of your own home. We will defiantly be back (Valentines Day is around the corner)
I love coming here. The staff is super friendly and definitely has the perfect touch when it comes to helping out and standing off. Awesome vibe. 💕
Rosie is the bomb! She makes you feel comfortable and gives great suggestions and advice. Will definitely be a repeat customer.
Great experience with Devin
After visiting Shades of Love, I found it to be a classy and upscale establishment unlike others including Love Shack and Temptations. The store contains a vast variety of quality products, and the staff members are both sensitive and EXTREMELY knowledgeable on their own products as well as information of a more intimate nature. Ditch the other places, and go to Shades of Love!
I had never been to Shades of Love before until today and I was impressed! The prices are so much cheaper than Adult Video Megaplex and feels a lot cleaner. I will without a doubt be going there from now on! Great service as well!
I walked into the store and didn’t even know there was an employee behind the counter. The whole time there, I was never greeted or asked if I needed assistance. Another lady went up to the counter asking for help in looking for a toy. The employee behind the counter just pointed to the testers on the wall and didn’t help her any further. Wow, no customer service skills.You walk in and it’s sort of dark and not easy on the eyes. The whole vibe of the store is out of date. The items were dust, sticky and disorganized. With the shape of the store, it looks like the employee needs to step out from behind the counter and start cleaning up the store and their customer service skills.
I love this store !!! They have a awesome set up ! Always diffrent stuff alot to chose from ... Variety is best ...
Great staff, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable. Stopped by to find a bday gift for a friend and had a great experience. We will reccomend Shades of Love to all our friends.
Experienced and non judgemental 👍great selection but needs more large buttplugs
Had an amazing visit rosemary helped us a lot and made us feel at home. Very knowledgeable and open.
Perfect for women who are uncomfortable in regular stores. The women here work hard to help you get what you need. I love it! If I could give Shades of Love 10 stars, I would! Definitely coming back!
Kady Lopez was such a big help, I was shy in asking some questions, but she made me feel comfortable, and it was very educational I learned some things, and the products are great, they just bring you so much confidence in the bedroom. Shades of love is my spot for adult fun!
Sales rep Rose was very pleasant and helpful. It was a relaxed environment in which you could explore and feel comfortable asking questions thank you again rose :)
This is a great place to find something fun. The atmosphere is very welcoming and Rosemary is very knowledgeable and helpful.
I lost a bet with my wife and as part of my payment I had to wear some womens clothing and go to this store and get an item and an outfit for me to wear and my wife and her friends to use at a party she threw. It was embarrassing as it was obvious what I was wearing underneath but the folks at the store were tremendous. Rosemary in particular was tremendous. No judgement, no embarrassing comments about what I was wearing. She also suggested some items she said my wife would probably like for the purpose of the party and she was spot on. She knew what would be fun and what would work for me and she was a true professional, not making me feel embarrassed in the least. Thanks for all you did!!! I highly recommend the store and staff.
Great service and selections, relaxed and informative environment. Rosemary was very helpful for my partner and I. Dont be shy and ask questions.
Absolutely lovely place!! You do not feel uncomfortable which is a nice change. They will answer your questions and help you find what you need. I will be back!! A great place to find items to spice up that weekend in!!
The lady was absolutely wonderful! Was on our honeymoon and she helped us find exactly what we wanted. Next time we are in the area we will definitely be back. Thanks so much!
Shades of love is the place to go for romantic lingerie and toys! Rose delivers amazing customer service and is funny, knowledgeable and smart! She also gives all types of classes which are fun and entertaining as well!
Loraine was such a huuuuge help! I was curious about the difference between water based or silicone based lube & she was beyond helpful. This cute lil shop is very female friendly with a great vibe to it. Highly recommend 💕
Probably the cleanest adult store in San Antonio by far. Didnt have an awkward vibe at all, very friendly staff, however the variety of actual toys could be better. But I highly suggest this place for lingerie and similar items.
Love this place everytime we come its such an open feeling. Thanks Rosemary for being so open with my friends questions.
Well merchandised and a large selection of items. Lingerie is beautiful. Great looking store and the staff is very friendly too!!
I have been working here for 18 years in our family business. I love helping couples stay together by exploring new and fun ways to add some excitement to their relationship.
Great store. Great selection. Rose was very helpful!
While this is the biggest store and maybe doesnt have the largest collection, I was very impressed. They do it right in terms of atmosphere and classiness. I didnt feel like I was in some skeevy porn shop, I felt like I was just normally shopping....just for sexy stuff for me and my hubby. Lol.
I have been to the other places in town (Adam & Eve, Temptations, & Love Shack) and Shades is the store that I always come back to. They have what I need 99% of the time, and if they dont they get it in for me quickly. Plus the staff are very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend giving them a look!
Sales rep was pleasant and helpful. It was a relaxed environment in which you could explore and feel comfortable asking questions.
Great atmosphere, and an extremely friendly owner!
Love the store! Very friendly workers! Rosemary was such a great help!!
Amazing place!! Very helpful and Rosemary gave amazing insight!!
The most knowledgeable people specially Rosemary. Prices are great. She really helped me a lot. Grade AAA experience
Rosemary is the shiznit! She hooked this girl up. I can’t wait to give my new toys a spin!
I loved how the employees were very kind, and albe to help us find what we were looking for, I felt very comfortable in this environment, the music playing also was awsome, very positive and up beat... I loved it here, I would highly recommend coming here.
I love the store but I feel dissapointed, I walked in and spent over 30 min trying to find what I was looking for without noticing that there was a lady at the counter the whole time sitting down looking at her phone and never greet me or seem to a knowledge me. I asked for couple suggestions and couple questions about the products and she really didnt show the minimum interest, motivitation or simple as customer service skills.. I dont feel like coming back. 👎👎
Great store..... fast and friendly service and always has great recommendations
It was great!! I love it, customer service was great they provided me with necessities.
Great products.And awesome customer service experience.
I could go to another adult store near my house, but I love Shades of Love, wouldnt go anywhere else. Robin
Great customer service and helpful staff - highly recommended!
Great shop with lots of selection! We went to buy things for a bachelorette party and found everything we needed and much more!
Great adult store for lingerie and other adult items
