I was charged idr20k for 1 bottle of water at octopuss. Maybe batam is good for those bros who wants to book a lady overnight. It’s not my kind of thing as I’m a 1 shot guy and I feel awkward spending the night with a stranger. Maybe if I got a regular there, it would be different.

Thank you for sharing. I have been to those Spas in Johor Bahru before (most time no more than 300rm). The main issue for myself is i find it kind of boring to go there alone,but for batam i dont. The hotel/s which i regularly goes to knows me well enough to have myself struck up a conversation even tho i dont speak bahasa or malay. Or the least,they are willing to start talking (easy to start a conversation with even with language barrrier),and they dont mind me using google translate,hehehe...i cant say the same for Johor bahru when i am with non-chinese.
You were right on one thing tho,i think many goes to batam becos LT is more popular there. I mean i book a girl, i have her company throughout my day/night...and i truly dont mind leaving her in the hotel room alone (just so i keep all valuable safely 1st) so that i can still get the freedom to monger around to look for other fun in Batam. (worse case scenario,i just send her back to joint) In some way, there wont be a single boring moment or at the least,i have a choice to choose how i wish my holiday to be. I cant speak the same for Johor tho,hehehe...making more other choices there can cost more than expected.
Men Spa,i dont visit them unless i have a friend or a group of friends with me. We have a couple of hours to burn before going on to our next-to-do list. And if i am alone, i am more likely to book a girl or 2 in some booking joints,hehehe...in a way,its like using money to buy company.
1. Da Vienna Junior suite room is good. In fact better than most Formosa hotel rooms,but still i would ask you try that hotel out. (Formosa has a poorer outlook,in-room and out-room carpet can be stinky at times,noisy at night from the KTV upstair,some time toilet gets choked,lousier breakfast,cockroaches i caught at times etc)
2. Next time if you are still coming to Batam, drop in New Spa at Batam City Hotel to have a try (if i dont remember wrong,before 3pm is a bit cheaper). A different culture as compared to Octopuss. At least there wont be mosquitoes,hehehe...
3. Utama hotel,walk its perimeter one round,hehehe...try out their most MPs there (less than 100k rupiah/hour most time). Dont go for the option of those VIP room or those fanciful packages 1st (just the basic package 1st). Why so? Its becos if each MP is under different boss/es,more than likely the work culture will also be different. I must have killed hundreds of mosquitoes there thru out my time in Batam,hehehe...sorry,this part is a plain joke.
4. If you are looking for MPs with lesser or no mosquitoes. Hmm...try Area B Massage places,hehehe...

...which is why i am mostly sticking to Area B more than Area A nowaday after i "grew up" from Area A.
5. Its a challenge to get something "special" from MPs like Spa Secret,Manzu etc. And even a greater challenge to get the same or lower priced "service" from those places (hehehe...i rarely "recommend").
But isnt it good to have "such" in those so called "clean places"? Which is one of the reason why i am still enjoying Batam until today. I am sure i cannot get something "special" from Johor bahru's Sabye sabye, Spa Manja ,Thai Odyssey, Bangkok Spa ,Thai Imperial, Khatulistiwa Spa etc (one reason why Batam is different).
To me, its just like when getting something special from Bluewave or Poseidon is really nothing special at all becos i paid for it upfront and already expecting it to happen when the time comes. I often keep my expectation low whenever i am in Batam and i have a good time from them. A good massage with a good ending (pardon me for being unable to speak out specifically and clearly in the open).
* I am still not willing to try Batam Sports Massage becos i dont want to waste my money when i am in Batam with "expectation",hehehe... (i cant speak the same for the other MPs)
May you have a better Batam trip next round.
Cheers!
