First post. Just got back from the Big Durian. Was there for work but squeezed in some time to explore the massage scene, thanks to the intel from this thread and based on my own research.
It's official, Grand Odiseus Spa at Hotel Nikko has closed shop wef 31 Jan, as result of the raid. Not sure if it has relocated elsewhere.
Tried Fortune Spa - nice place and cost me IDR320K for 1.5 hours. Masseuse was a petite slim girl with nice legs and ass. Massage skills rather poor. Clean massage only. There's a sign in the room saying no hanky panky in Bahasa (hmmm...). She didn't offer anyway and I didn't ask. Not good value for money, IMO, although the quality of girls seem superior.
Sands Executive Club at Mannga Dua Square Mall was much better. Went twice. Local at only 175K for 1.5hours, Chinese masseuse at 280K. Took the local plus upgrade to VIP room for 255K total.
First visit was a friendly and shapely local and she definitely put effort into the massage. They are quite good with their shiatsu skills, and able to make my back crack.
HJ Question popped after a good massage on my first visit but I declined. But she maintained good attitude and remained friendly. Tipped 50K.
On my second visit, took the same package with a different girl from Surabaya. She can't speak English though. After 1 hour strong massage session, she proclaimed "habis" and sat down. After looking at each other and a few jokes later, persuaded her to remove her clothes. Ended up with some foreplay with her wearing only her panties on. Nice GFE and somewhat shy. These Indo girls definitely have nice silky smooth skin and hair. Tipped her 200K after some bargaining and went off into the balmy Jakarta night happy.
Don't think Sands is the right place for FJ though, but I wasn't interested anyway.
Too bad didn't have a chance to try the mandi lulur at Kimochi or Kartika
