Not much leave left for me this year, so no choice but to combo in between the upcoming public holidays. So next trip could be either xmas week or new years eve, if not next year.

I would have tried if it wasn't fully occupied by Singaporeans twice when I went lol.

For all trips (except #4) it was traditional massage. Apologies if you might have misunderstood it wrongly.

What I mean was some spas do not show the full price with tax whereas some spa states the full price including tax.

Adorabella's menu was 275k, paid the same price stated.
Namii's menu was 340k, but paid 391k total after tax.
Alamanda's menu was 270k, paid the same price stated.
Eska's menu was 310k, but paid 341k total after tax.

Iirc I don't see any lines stating price was w/o gst for Namii and Eska. I could be wrong about this though.

Honestly I'd feel my trip wasn't really rushed, since most of the time I was just casually walking back and forth between places and at times stopping for a while trying to spot points of interest while en-route. But if I could do a 4 hour massage, I might consider reducing down to probably 3 massages per day... :P

Interesting. How do you get them to book a 3-4 hours massage?
Though I think it's kinda risky for them since doing 3-4 hours straight, scared they kena hand cramps from all the pressing.

Comparing to SG standards, most already CMI after 1.5hours. Yet when I did the massages in batam their strength feels the same throughout the entire duration.

Yeah, hopefully the booking rates don't jump on me again like how it did the other time.

Also thanks for the ups. I've returned you with some green apples as well.
