Hapa Spa, Bangkok



During my recent trip to Bangkok, I got the opportunity to check out this cool spa. It is located in Sukumvit area of Bangkok and pretty easy to find.


When I arrived at the spa, I was greeted by this really friendly girl and she took time to explain to us the different packages that they have including their current promotions. She was really cute and bubbly and was patient with us when we couldnt make up our minds on what treatment to do. There were 5 of us..so imagine la melayan kerenah 5 people yang cant make up their minds cuz everything on the spa menu looks good. For me, I wanted to try them all but because we have limited time and also if one of us opt for a 2 hour treatment then obviously I cant go for a 3 hours treatment cuz then everyone will be pissed for waiting for me to finish. Finally we all decided to go for 2 hour treatment.




The treatment

Hubby: 2 hour aromatheraphy oil massage

Brother 1: 2 hour thai massage

Brother 2: 2 hour 4 hands aromatheraphy oil massage. (2 therapists massaging at the same time)

Mum: 1 hour aromatheraphy oil massage & manicure & pedicure

Me: 2 hour 4 hands aromatheraphy oil massage



Verdict

Everyone loved the massage whether it was thai massage, aromatheraphy massage or even the 4 hands massage. Everyone said the massage was superb and fantastic.

The manicure and pedicure was ok mummy said. She just wanted them to buff it but it wasnt really that shiny..but overall it was ok.



My 4 hands massage was something I've never tried before. I've always wanted to give it a try but they're normally too pricey. In Maldives it was something like almost USD200 for an hour or something like that. Even in KL it was priced at about RM500 plus.

At Hapa, it was only approximately RM170 for 2 whole hours. It was bloody worth it. But mind you, it was on a discount because they had some promotion going on that time.



It was so cool. While one therapist is massaging your leg, another one is massaging your shoulder or upper body. And then when the one massaging your leg moves up to massage your upper body, the other one will massage your legs. So basically, that whole 2 hours your whole body is getting massaged. Best gila!!!


Price

Bloody worth it!!!

If you're in Bangkok, please go and visit this spa, I tell you, you wont regret it. They have a branch even in Italy ok..dont play play.

Khareyana Spa, PJ


It's been a while since I last visited this spa. I actually like it a lot but been trying other spas that I havent had the chance to come back here.

My best friend took a day off to spend time with me on my birthday so we decided to pamper ourselves rotten. I skipped work too for this. Since my best friend is pregnant, we had to find a place that has treatment safe for her. The only one I could think of is Khareyana. Plus, I've always wanted to take her to this spa.



We got there and picked the treatment we want to go for. They told us about all the different types of smell/treatments that they have and finally,we decided to go for this treatment called Dara Putih Aroma because that's the best for pregnant women. I decided to go for the same one. It's a 3 hour body treatment for RM275.00 each.



We shared a room cuz we planned to chit chat and gossip during the treatment but not long after the scrub we were both on cloud 9. My friend fell asleep and I was in lalaland too.

The treatment
1. Scrub
2. Shower
3. Steam / Sauna
4. Massage
5. Milk bath

3 hours of bliss.

The massage was alright. I normally like strong pressure but the pressure was very soft and very relaxing. I wanted to ask the lady to increase the pressure but then I thought why not go for something relaxing and something soft for a change. I quite like it actually. But of course, it didnt help to ease my muscle ache and all.


After the spa, fresh watermelon and hot ginger tea was waiting for us. I didnt puasa yesterday. I had a good time at the spa. I love it. Cant wait to come back.

Do visit their website because they do have special offer and promotion for ramadhan. It's a nice spa and treatment is good too. You'll forget that you're in PJ once you step in the spa. Makes you feel like you're far away in Bali or something. Check it out.
