About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Palm Beach Tan, customers began noticing something peculiar one morning. As they lined up for their daily sessions, an automated voice announced over the speaker: 'Remember, ladies and gentlemen—tanning is forever!' The staff tried to dismiss it as a glitch, but the message repeated every day. One day, an elderly gentleman walked in and asked, ‘What does “tanning is forever” mean?’ No one could explain. Then, during a power outage, the lights came back on—and everyone was glowing orange! It turned out the place had been secretly testing a new LED tanning lamp that left a permanent golden sheen. Customers either loved it or hated it, but Palm Beach Tan became famous for its unique marketing gimmick.

2. At Palm Beach Tan, a regular noticed something odd one afternoon. As he walked in, a strange humming sound filled the air—like an old record player winding up. Curious, he followed the noise and found it was coming from an ancient radio behind the reception desk. It seemed no one else had noticed, so our regular decided to keep it a secret—a little surprise for his friends next time they came in. From then on, whenever someone mentioned Palm Beach Tan, they’d wink knowingly and say, ‘Don’t forget to listen for the music!’

3. At Palm Beach Tan, a delivery driver left an unusual package on the loading dock one day. Curious neighbors gathered around, wondering what it could be. Inside was a giant inflatable palm tree, clearly marked ‘Happy Anniversary’ with a note from the owner’s wife. Turns out, she’d hired someone to surprise her husband, who thought he was just getting another boring box of office supplies.

4. At Palm Beach Tan, as customers were getting ready for their sessions, someone started hearing whispers over the loudspeaker: ‘Don’t forget your sunscreen—even if you’re already golden!’ As one regular customer leaned in curiously, another voice chimed in softly: 'And don’t miss your appointment!' Turns out it was just a mischievous employee having fun with new clients. Everyone burst into laughter, and from then on, everyone at Palm Beach Tan knew to double-check their schedule before booking their tan.
