Questions Guests Ask Before Booking
Everything first-time clients usually want to know about an in-room massage at their Goa hotel. Anything else, just ask on WhatsApp.
Do you only visit hotels?
Yes. I work exclusively with guests staying at Goa’s leading hotels and resorts, from the five-star beach properties in Candolim, Sinquerim and Cavelossim to boutique hotels in Anjuna, Assagao and Panaji. I do not run a parlour and do not do walk-in appointments.
Is this service only for women?
Yes. Sessions are for women, and for couples booking together. Every session is strictly professional and therapeutic, with proper draping throughout.
Do hotels allow a visiting therapist?
Almost all do. You are simply receiving a guest in your room. I arrive in plain clothes with the table in a carry bag, register at reception with ID if the property asks, and leave as quietly as I came. If a resort has a strict no-outside-vendor policy it usually says so on your booking confirmation.
How much notice do you need?
A day ahead is ideal in peak season (November to February). Same-day bookings with 2–3 hours’ notice are usually possible in the Candolim–Calangute–Baga belt, Panaji and the Cavelossim–Varca strip.
What do you bring?
A portable massage table, fresh linen, towels, a choice of coconut, almond or aromatherapy oils, and hot stones if booked. Your room only needs a little floor space and the air-conditioning on.
What does it cost?
₹1,999 for 60 minutes, ₹2,799 for 90 minutes and ₹3,799 for 120 minutes, all-inclusive. There is no travel charge for hotels in North Goa between Sinquerim and Panaji, or in the Margao–Cavelossim resort belt.
Do you visit villas or apartments?
Only villas and serviced apartments that are part of a hotel or resort. I do not visit independently rented villas, Airbnbs or private homes in Goa.
What are your hours?
9am to 10pm, seven days a week, with the last session starting by 9pm. Later starts are possible on request with a small surcharge.
Which massage should I choose?
Swedish for relaxation and post-flight fatigue, deep tissue for knots and chronic stiffness, aromatherapy for stress and sleep, hot stone for deep muscle fatigue after beach days or long drives, and head-neck-foot for a quick reset. If you are unsure, describe how you feel and the session is tailored on the spot.
Is there a travel charge?
Not for hotels in Sinquerim, Candolim, Calangute, Baga, Anjuna, Vagator, Panaji, Dona Paula, Colva, Benaulim, Varca or Cavelossim. Morjim, Ashvem, Mandrem, Vasco, Bogmalo and Majorda are ₹300; Arambol, Palolem, Patnem and Agonda are ₹600 and pre-booked.
Can I book for a friend or a group?
Yes. Back-to-back sessions for two or more people in the same suite are common, with a discount on the second and subsequent sessions. Groups of three or more get 10% off each session.
What should I wear?
Whatever you are comfortable in. You undress to your comfort level in private and are draped with a sheet throughout, with only the area being worked on uncovered. For a head-neck-foot or Thai stretching session you can stay fully clothed.
Are you certified and verified?
Yes. Certified in Swedish and deep tissue massage with over six years of full-time practice, including two seasons at a resort spa in North Goa, and background-verified. ID can be shared with your hotel front desk.
How do I pay?
After the session by UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm) or cash. No advance is required within the main resort belts.
What is the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 2 hours before the slot. Later cancellations or no-shows carry a ₹500 charge. Rescheduling is always free.
Is massage safe during pregnancy?
Gentle Swedish massage is usually fine after the first trimester with your doctor’s go-ahead, using side-lying positioning. Deep tissue and hot stone are not offered during pregnancy.
