Went to Batam recently and thought I'd share something. Was there for a family trip and stayed in an international 4-star hotel. Last min felt like I needed a massage and was lazy to go out from hotel so decided to try their in-house spa since prices seemed reasonable. Had the choice of in-room massage but preferred some quiet time so went down to the spa itself. Room was big with a massage bed and shower facilities with a professional-looking masseuse in uniform who looked about early 30s. And her massage was good. Anyway wasn't expecting much but boy was i wrong. Chatted with her in bahasa and she was asking about my family and stuff in the beginning. Anyway later i was telling her about being lazy to go out of the hotel and about the many types of massage in Batam including "specials". Initially she teased me about liking "specials" but eventually surprised me when she herself popped the question. Prices were definitely chop carrot head but with my family around and limited choices i went ahead for full service. We had to be very discreet as she said she could lose her job and didn't even strip fully although I had access to everything. Midway we even had to reposition the towels on the massage bed as it was creaking too much.
Anyway long story short, didn't expect any action from professional in-house hotel spa but guess it depends on individual masseuse and how u preposition them. Cannot compare with those who chiong there but if u're there with family might be an option.
