5 Best Tanning Salons in Sydney (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

A wedding morning is the worst time to find out your spray tan streaks. Sydney's tanning salons on this page have logged just over 1,400 reviews between them, and every single one sits at 4.8 stars or higher, so the real decision here isn't quality, it's whether you want someone to come to you or a studio to walk into.

Short answer: Bella Bronzed Spray Tanning leads with a perfect 5.0 from 343 reviews, working mobile across the Eastern Suburbs and Inner City or from her Surry Hills studio. Beauty on Park Street is the strongest CBD studio option at 4.8 from 410 reviews if you want facials and waxing in the same visit. Most sessions run under 30 minutes and mobile tans typically cost more than an in-studio visit.

How we score

Rating is the live Google average. Review volume shows how many customers actually rated the business, ranked against the others here. Confidence blends the rating with that volume, since 5 stars from 300 reviews means more than 5 stars from a dozen. Recency checks how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does a spray tan cost in Sydney? (2026)

Pricing depends heavily on whether you book a mobile visit or walk into a studio, and whether it’s a single tan or a bridal party booking several people at once.

Serving all of Sydney

These salons between them cover Surry Hills, the CBD, Paddington, Breakfast Point, and Drummoyne, with mobile options reaching the Eastern Suburbs and Inner City more broadly. If you’re searching for a tanning salon near me in Sydney, start with whichever end of the harbour is closer and check whether they travel to you or expect a studio visit.

What to ask before you book a tanning salon

  • Do you come to me, or do I need to visit a studio?
  • What solution do you use, and is it suitable for sensitive skin?
  • How long before an event should I book my tan?
  • Can you fit in a bridal party or group booking?
  • What’s the aftercare, and how long will the tan last?
  • Do you offer exfoliation or prep beforehand?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these tanning salons?

We pulled real, publicly listed businesses tagged as tanning salons in Sydney, then ranked them on their live Google rating, how many people have reviewed them, and how recently those reviews were left.

How often is this updated?

This page was verified in July 2026 using live Google data, and we refresh it periodically as ratings and review counts change.

Should I book a mobile tan or visit a studio?

Mobile suits weddings and groups who don’t want to travel on the day. A studio visit often costs less and can be combined with other beauty treatments if the salon offers them.

How far in advance should I book a wedding tan?

Reviewers who used these salons for weddings generally booked their tan a day or two before the event, and did a trial run earlier if it was their first time.

The bottom line

Bella Bronzed Spray Tanning is the safe default if you want a mobile tan with the deepest review history behind it. If you’d rather go to a studio and combine it with another treatment, Beauty on Park Street is the better fit. Either way, book early if it’s for a wedding.
