Meet the Founders
Dr. Darryl Martins, Co-Founder and CEO
As a Podiatrist, our co-founder saw an opportunity to combine social gatherings and a spa in a totally new and innovative environment. Having been a part-time bartender in college, he was able to create the initial signature cocktails that were offered to spa guests – completely enhancing the experience someone would have while enjoying a manicure and pedicure. While his days as a “guest bartender” are fewer, he still enjoys taking a break from his medical practice to visit and chat with staff and guests, while also being a resource for new franchise owners who want to follow their path to entrepreneurship.
Annie Martins, Co-Founder and COO
Annie is a registered nurse and licensed nail technician, and a huge inspiration for the launch of Martini’s Spa & Lounge. She created the menu of offerings, designed the space, and trained the first technicians. Annie continues to manage operations in multiple locations in the founding locations and is always excited to help a new owner startup and launch their spa & lounge.
