Frequently asked questions
Is the massage suitable for a first-time visitor?
Yes the staff are used to first-timers and will guide you through. Mention any injuries pregnancy or pressure preferences before starting. Thai massage involves stretching that some find intense Western-style oil massage is gentler.
How long should I plan for at Sweet Massage Samui?
Allow the booked treatment time plus 20 minutes either side for changing showering and tea. A 2-hour treatment realistically takes 2.5 hours total. Most spas serve herbal tea and a snack before you leave.
Is tipping expected?
Tipping the therapist directly is appreciated and the local norm is 50-100 baht for an hour. Larger tips are not necessary unless you booked an extended luxury treatment. The bill itself does not include service charge except at hotel spas.
