Legit massage

[Xyz808]

If they moved into Waikiki, they are still the cheapest option in the immediate area. Regular hotels charging 165/215 for 50/80 min massages. I guarantee high end places like the Ritz Carlton is charging even more. They should be able to draw in the tourists; but higher operating costs with rent etc might only end up in a wash for them in profits.

Awful approach. Massages are pure luxury / discretionary goods. Unlike food or gas or electricity, no one NEEDS a massage, and unlike something like roles or handbags, massages have a shady reputation that doesn't allow for public flexing. Raising the price, especially by so much, will just make people cut it out completely so they can buy groceries. The smart play would actually be to drop prices, offer deals (buy 4 massages get 1 free), etc until inflation stops killing everyone and the economy picks up again, but they won't do that.

Good luck to all these shops raising prices. They'll need it.

That's high prices for locals like us. But seeing that they in Waikiki that is a cheaper options for tourists than going to a hotel spa for a massage. Google spa prices in Waikiki, Modern hotel charges 150 for a 50 min massage. They'll get the tourist business, but not much locals for sure.

Jai Dee Thai has been my goto for a good Thai massage and stretching. $60/ h. $90/90 min. Older MTs, 2 favorites strong technics, and 1 younger MT call her are when the other 2 were off or busy. Always legit for me, denied extras, respect and repeat with no complaints.

So I called are, private #, and she moved to another shop at the International Market Place.

I went to check it out and the pricing shocked me.

60 min / $95+ tax.

90 min /$145+tax.

I like to support local businesses but this is too much for me.

Hope your favorite shop doesn't follow. FME.

Yes sorry I forgot to mention that. It looks like a common thing now to 'split' the split AC. They should have the girls remind customers that others are trying to relax.

Worse part was it was one sided as that therapist either didn't understand him or didn't know enough English to tell him to shush LOL.

Only downside is that every two rooms have an opening up top for the ac so if you get stuck with a room with a talkative guy you have to listen to the whole conversation. A tourist kinda killed it for me last time he talked for the full fing hour.

Chinese place with convenient parking, a couple of doors mauka of CC on Kalakaua Avenue in a building that has an "R & C Tours" sign.

It is a large beautiful quiet place that might have been an AMP years ago. Split AC if you prefer that.

Been seeing primarily May and Tina for some time. They are experienced having worked before in other shops. Supposedly Tina (who does not speak a whole lot of English but is always smiling) got her massage license this year or last, but I enjoy either of them. I do not go for Deep Tissue so cannot comment on that, but I estimate they could do it (but not all day I reckon). Both are very sweet and accommodating.

May's foot massage also feels good. They've had some hot-ish girls pass through but they do not stay. I don't get anything and they do not like to be roamed, but that's probably on me the Caveman and not them. There typically are 2 or 3+ other therapists as well.

L ratings, I'm not into that because it cannot account for the drastic variations in mens' preferences, but I find May hot especially for a legit place, so to me she is L=8; Tina L=7 but could be higher because of her wealth of charm (for me, even a gorgeous woman becomes fugly when acting like an AH). Both are A=9 and S (massage)=8/9 depending on the body part. Tina is probably in her early 50's and May perhaps early 40's with a fit body but I'm just guessing, as cavemen do not receive optical care.

Been here a couple of times and can agree. This is a good legit place. Usually don't get lookers here but so far most have been good at massage. Most are in their 40-50's.

Sup H Mobius and to the others asking about Sammy.

She doesn't have an ad that I'm aware of, I met her off of Tinder a few years ago. I'll have to ask if she's okay taking new customers, I'll PM you when I get an answer. Also, I appreciate the tip on Vicky and Yaya Spa.

Thank you G Recon.

Yes as Ajarn noted they do get some nice ones through there, but it is more of a special treat.

Passed by Yaya Spa and was surprised to see two comely SYTs giving foot massages.

Hi GR,

Does she have an ad?

I saw Vicky in Yaya Spa, on the first floor of CC. Legit covered massage but then the cover came off. Massaged me in provocative ways (I like when the girl sits on me) but no HJ or play. I think she plays with others, and no offense but her presentation (makeup and skimpy outfit) was that of a working girl. IMHO she would be a good choice in a place like Lemon Blossom.

They have a few good-looking girls in there and especially on weekend nights they can get pretty busy.

That's the fun thing about them; they're All married with children. They just don't all admit it 😊.

Thought Yaya and Yuyu were single all along.

[H Mobius]

Its definitely to get a better tip. She's happily married with a few kids so don't expect play. At least was last year.

Some of the girls, especially the owner's sis, like to tease. Maybe it's a tactic aimed at extracting a bigger tip. Most of the time it doesn't lead to anything.

A match won't get the sis lighted, but a Zippo would 😁.

[YoursTruly808]

So I text her just recently since I haven't seen her in forever. She still does massages. If you have her number or been with her before, go support her. Pretty strong massage from a petite Japanese girl.

Anyone able to provide her contact info? DM is fine as well.
