Nice find, Granite! Glad you enjoyed your CGK layover.

Enjoy your trip, EA. Yes, Jalan Pecenongan is a lot better location than where HI is. I used to always stay at Redtop as my go to hotel. Just around the corner from your hotel is a Jonisteak like restaurant named Happy Day on Juanda. Nicer interior, food is cheap and decent.

Emporivm is not too expensive for what you get.

I understand the difficulties of those who are not expert travelers and find themselves staying in Jakarta for just a few days. The places I have listed are 30 km apart from each other, but they can also be an opportunity to visit the city, discover corners that are little explored by non-residents and not always stay in your comfort zone. My nickname is not because I am Colombian, I am European, but I chose this nickname because I have been to Medellin several times and the city has literally conquered me. Since my first trip I have chosen to rent a scooter and explore the city and the places of mongering even those outside the usual circuits. It is a method that I have also used in Thailand and the Philippines, not in Vietnam in Saigon where traffic is crazy with the total absence of rules of the road code. I do not know if Jakarta is feasible for this type of choice, but in any case I am not afraid of doing 30 km by taxi or public transport if this means enriching my experiences. After all, what to do from 9 in the morning until 2/3 in the afternoon if not explore the different corners of the city.

To those who asked me, DE Natsu allows full sex (it is the older and more quality sister of DE Momo, in fact the prices increase on average by 100 RDI).

For now my favorite is GLC spa.

Regarding the bad reviews of Zaigon. Better to check in person since the cost to satisfy your curiosity is only about 50 euros.

I consider myself a traveler not a tourist, it would be stupid to leave Italy for Indonesia just to get a few hours of sex, after all I come from the country of Marco Polo, Cristoforo Colombo and Amerigo Vespucci.

Had a recent four hour layover and thought no better way to spend it than with a visit to a spa. Since it was morning there were only a few places open before 11 and found Aurum Spa to be the closest at just a 20 minute taxi from the airport. Girls were shown on the phone, 90 minutes all in for 600 k. My girl enters the room and tells me she cannot do massage. Tia is a spinner with a surprisingly big rack which I could not tell from the photo. Sometimes the girls are better in person than in the photos. No massage no problem for me as I didn't want to waste any time, but since I like to warm up to the girl before gettin down to business I told her I would teach her some massage skills. She was happy to hear my offer and of course enjoyed receiving the massage, feeling relaxed and open for intimacy. Began with some nice DFK and with a promised tip, got her to agree to BB to which she told me not to tell the boss. Would never do such a thing! Damn she was sexy little thing, got her number and would like to repeat outside the spa on a return to Jakarta. At checkout many of the girls were in the front lounge area and it looked like I picked the best of the bunch. You could probably request to see the lineup of girls if it is a slow time of day. Called a gocar and had plenty of time to spare for my flight. Jakarta once again ftw.

I'm going to add one thing to this discussion. One place I don't think is getting enough recognition from the new guys is Travel, based on reviews anyways. Now personally Travel has fallen down my list but I know experienced guys who still really like Travel and get great service from the girls there. There are a lot of girls at Travel so it certainly should be on the list of any newbie. Don't let negative feedback from someone like me dissuade you from visiting Travel. It's only 5-10 minutes taxi from both Classic and KI.

In my view:

Classic / Travel / KI offer a lot of convenience since reasonably close (major benefit in Jakarta!) and a large selection of girls at low cost. Even local boards / telegram groups often refer to Classic as "Legend Place".

Emporium (&1001) - which I have not been to yet. Are very close nearby and offer a different type of experience with more "pampering" as part of the package. This is closer to the scene that Medellin is referencing, however the upper end in terms of quality / facilities which comes at a cost (naturally). Again, as pointed out by many: distance / vicinity is a major benefit.

So I would say it is absolutely natural that these places get most of the attention, particularly in recent posts.

Having said that:

I have commented before on the SPA scene outside of Emporium and 1001 and subjectively do believe that it is going a bit too much under the radar. It is more geared towards residents / locals (incl. 99% of communication etc. Being only available in Bahasa), however I can confirm that there is a very active local telegram community where patrons as well as GROs (Guest Relation Officers) and Managers / Papasans / Mamasans share information including fotos, availability, recommendations for certain services (those mainly would be 1 to 1, less so in the public groups. Some also issue Field Reports in sub-sections of their telegram groups. Next to Spas these also e. G. Cover places like Mega Ayu / Royal VIP in KI (even Classic, however they don't bother issuing roster / pictures etc, no need for them). Locals regularly pre-book their favourites in these locations via telegram with GRO / Mamasan.

For me personally (attention: subjective view): this scene is simply more tricky to navigate and takes more time getting used to. For me, by now the share of times I visit the SPAs vs. Classic / Travel / CJs / BATS has increased significantly, since I usually visit on my own and personally believe that Classic etc. Are more fun with a wingman (since I am a rather quiet person myself) whereas in the SPA scene I enjoy relaxing in hot / cold pool, 1-2 sauna rounds as well as being "pampered" with a decent massage leading into more fun.

But that is simply a subjective personal preference, what is great in Jakarta is that you have these different options.

Long story short:

As I started with, I think in the core Medellin wasn't wrong, the. Recent. Reports offer limited range, however the locations are easy, convenient and suitable for visitors whereas a lot of other options are more complicated to navigate, hence in my view take more time getting used to and are more suitable for residents, so to me it makes perfect sense that the majority of reports focus on Classic / KI and Emporium as flavor of the day with the benefit of being just next door to Classic.

Looking forward to spending some time in good old Jakarta soon!

Can anyone provide links to Emporium and 1001?

I think that is the reason you got negative feedback. On the ground reports are valued. Commenting based on Internet searches without ever being there is fairly useless. If you found a lot of unknown gems, great for you. Come to Jakarta, try them out and write nice first hand reports so we can all benefit. Everyone knows pictures are so filtered that they are totally useless and bear no resemblance to the actual girls. Also as others have mentioned North, Central, South, West and East Jakarta are at least 1 hour or more away from each other so most people don't do all sides of the city. North / Central has a high concentration of reliable places so that's where everyone goes. Bars, clubs and Spas are not the only options either. There are a million ways to get laid from $30 to $300 and more.

Medellin65 mentioned all these places but did not post any names until we jumped his * about it. I stated most the problems with his list that common sense would have answered for him if he looked at a map and thought about it. He also said he got some prices and still no prices listed. He asks for info and does not give any.

Your turn. You think we and me are harsh? Funny. Go visit the Medellin Colombia thread. Now you talk about this local Telegram communities but YOU do not list the community names or how to find them.

FYI pre-booking is not a magic bullet. Right now I am waiting for a girl I had last night. She said she starts at 5:00 and I told her I will be there 5:20. She texted me something came up so now 6:00 so I will see her at 6:20. I am hoping but it is iffy she will even be there. I told another girl and her mamasan I want her again tomorrow when she gets here at 4:00.4:10 she is not there. Mamasan says she is in the salon and will I wait. NO! That is in the same building but she is not here to "F". Then the other girl I wanted that did not come in at all that day.

So in summary niether of you have posted any helpful information.

I will there in late Oct or early Nov and staying for 60 days unless if it turns out to be a total flop then I'll head back to Thailand but I highly doubt it will be a flop with the wealth of information I have collected from this forum.

Bb your reply is from a man with tons of experience, now I read our man from Medellin has not even visited Jakarta, leave alone visiting the places he mentioned. What a guy, LOL. Trolling is justified, yes the horrible traffic makes it very difficult, Classic to KC in itself takes about 50-60 min. Idea is to find more such places like Classic, Travel, Emporium, 1001, KC, KI.

The only place I have repeated at since in West Jakarta is New Medika.

Hopefully Medellin65 can check them all out for us and report back. That would be very useful info for the board. Now I see Medellin65 has not been to Jakarta which is likely the reason he's listing places way too far from where most, if not all, of us tourists stay. I guess he doesn't realize there are spots in Jakarta where it can take up to 30 minutes to go a km.

But the worsening city traffic makes it almost impossible.

Thanks LoveItHere for looking the places up. As I suspected these places are far.

**LoveItHere69** · 09-14-24 17:58

SR Massage.

8 km east of CJ Bar in Block M. No info found.

Majhong Massage & Lounge.

Directly south of the airport in South Tangerang. 31 km from Classic.

Bidadari Asia Spa Lounge Grand Asia Hotel.

Doable (close) north location. But little out of my area to visit.

Aquarius Spa.

5 k, south of CJs Bar. 650 K. 12 km from Classic.

GLC Spa.

Near the airport. Too far.

DE Natsu Lounge.

Center of Block M. CJ / BATS area. Is sex available?

DE Momo lounge.

Short walk from Kota Indah. I went there today. 765 k for 90 minutes. I can get 2 girls at Kota Indah.

Romeo Health Massage.

Directly south of the airport in South Tangerang. 31 km from Classic.

Zaigon Spa & Lounge.

Someone had a bad experience on another site just last week. Most reports are bad that I have found. They want you to choose by photo which will be photoshopped and no way to see if you have chemistry. I believe they are in the 600 k realm.

XXXXX.

Kelapa Gading is only 11 km with many different places in a group and I gave prices for most of them. But you guys are interested in places that are much further and all over the city? Brilliant waste of time.

So the answer is that the places you listed are scattered through the city and at far distances.

I would like to clarify one thing.

I have never been to Jakarta and I am planning my 2 week trip for March.

I have traveled many times in Southeast Asia and I have not always used my method so as not to waste opportunities and time. First of all, I inform myself on forums from other people's experiences without limiting myself to just that. Then I check online and on social media (instagram, telegram, etc.), I contact the administrators of the premises or possibly the GROs on Wapp with the aim of obtaining the most detailed and recent information. I often also get access to private links with photos and videos of the therapists in addition to the price list and promotions.

I am convinced that to know that fire burns you do not need to put your hand on the flame, just as to know that ice is cold you do not necessarily have to put your hand in the freezer.

Direct experience is important but so is using all the information available in any way, this is to not have a limited vision of everything.

The one I saw was on De Momo in August, 2024. Pretty sure I wrote about De MoMo well before that. FWIW it doesn't come close to a place like Classic. The main thing it has going for it is that it's near Kota Indah so you can walk or take a $1-2 taxi ride there.

I did understand your original question. The reason you're seeing guys review mainly Classic and Emporium (+1001) now is because they're the flavor of the day. Most of the reviews done lately are from new posters on their first trip to Jakarta, usually on a short one week trial visit. They will go to where guys are providing good feedback.
