Amsterdam erotic massages or a day spa: two ways to spend a free afternoon in the city
A free afternoon in Amsterdam often ends in one of two places: a spa with saunas and treatment rooms, or a session in your own room. They are different things, and this page sets Amsterdam erotic massages and a day spa side by side so the choice is an informed one.
What a day spa offers
Spas in and around the city sell an afternoon of saunas, steam rooms, pools and quiet areas, often with a facial or a therapeutic massage booked on top. They are social places: other visitors share the saunas, and the treatment rooms are clinical by design. Visitors are also often surprised to learn that saunas here are usually mixed and that swimwear is frequently not allowed in them, which is worth checking before you go.
What a session in your room offers
An hour in your own room is the opposite in almost every way. There is one guest, one therapist or two, and nobody else. Nothing has to be packed or carried across the city, because she comes to you, in the forty to sixty minutes after the booking is agreed. The work is warm oil and an unhurried pace rather than a treatment menu, and what the session includes is set out by her at the start. The women who can come are on the roster, each with her own photographs and figures.
Amsterdam erotic massages or a day spa: travel and time
A spa afternoon takes the whole afternoon. There is the journey out, often to the edge of the city, then changing, the round of saunas, the treatment slot and the journey back. A session in your room takes the length you booked and nothing more, and the rest of the afternoon stays yours. For a guest with three free hours, that difference usually decides it.
Doing both
They compete less than it seems. A morning at a spa and an afternoon hour in the room make a full day of looking after yourself, and some guests do exactly that on the quiet day of a trip. Put the spa first: arriving at a session already warm and loose from a sauna is pleasant, whereas going to a public sauna after an oil session means showering twice and arriving slippery.
What neither one is
Neither is medical treatment, and a session here makes no claims about health. If you have an injury or a condition, a physiotherapist is the person to see. What a session here offers is an hour of warm, attentive touch in private, described in plain terms on the services page.
