  Comments from Utopians:

  "In Ubud, there's a spa called Nus where men do all the services for male clientele. The outdoor stalls are nice but you can hear everything happening (all while some stupid loud woman next door was bitching about her sunburn!). My masseur was pressing himself against my feet and hands to make sure I felt him. When I flipped over, he concentrated on the pelvic region a lot. Try your luck." -- cruzndomtop, Sep 19, 2009

  "I also had a massage with Mr. Win Sumantri. Very good but slightly pricy. His place is very basic and not too clean. Here are some alternatives: Sara Spa, Monkey Forest Rd, 868-8206, 081-2464-2222. Down the little lane by Lotus Restaurant. They have two masseurs, both called Dewa. The slimmer Dewa is stronger but slightly more rushed. The other Dewa is gentler and more relaxing. Both are very nice guys. Private rooms with shower. One hour oil massage is R$40,000. A little bit further up Monkey Forest Rd on the same side is Aura Bali Spa (TMC building, upstairs), 745-6320, 781-1818. They also have masseurs and private rooms with showers but I haven't had a massage here yet, so I can't comment on the quality. One hour oil massage R$80,000. Milano Salon and Spa, Monkey Forest Rd near the football field (walk down little lane between Lobong Cafe and football field), 973-488. Gay-owned and managed by Paris, a lovely guy who is not always there as he travels quite a lot. If he is at the salon, he is great to talk to about the gay scene anywhere in the world. There are currently also two masseurs working in the spa. I can recommend Suria, he is very good. Private rooms with shower. One hour oil massage R$80,000. Please note that none of these spas are exclusively gay and have mostly female staff. My experiences were strictly professional massage." -- supermichel, Jul 22, 2009

  "For a totally satisfying massage in Ubud try Mr Win Sumantri, Jln Jembawan 9X. Excellent treatment. Very enjoyable!" -- Mustapha, May 27, 2009

  Comments from Utopians:

  "Facilities are less than basic. Dark, dingy bedrooms and cold showers. If you are into the masseurs, I suggest you order take out." -- cruzndomtop, Sep 21, 2009

  "Close to Nusa Dua resorts. Very basic facilities, but a good choice of masseurs." -- Trevelly, Sep 3, 2009

  Comments from Utopians:

  "The only place I recommend is Cozy Massage on Sunset Rd (not far from Carrefour). The best masage I have had in Bali, by far. Extremely professional. Request a masseur. Under R$100,000 for 90 minutes!" -- jack69ph, Oct 4, 2009
