While Thai & Balinese style massages are staple in most parts of the country, the Borneo native massage is unique to Malaysia & one to experience when visiting. Be sure to check out Jari-Jari & treat yourself to an authentic "Dusun" massage. It was the perfect end to our Sabah experience of exploring pristine beaches & climbing Mount Kinabalu. Personal...

Staff was friendly and made sure comfort was a priority. Absolutely loved the entire experience from the moment I stepped in. From the ambience to the massage itself, could not complain a single bit. Best thing to do before rushing off to the airport which is 2 minutes away!

Perfect. Friendly and polite staff. Very generous 'greeting' serving hot ginger tea as welcoming drink and mini foot bath/soak before the massage. General ambience just great and music not tacky.

This spa is located inside an almost empty, rundown mall, but don't freak out yet, just walk up to 2nd floor and you will find this nice little spa, a friendly english speaking Japanese lady at the reception. Treatment price is really cheap if you compare to other "hotel's spa", you can have 2 hours treatment here while the price... More

Not easy to find. Pleasant reception staff. Relaxing foot soak and foot massage before the full massage begins. A great massage, different in some ways to what we are used to. Very professional and thoroughly enjoyable massage. Recomend
