General spa tips:
Most spas offer both facials, manicures and pedicures as well as massages and body treatments. Several have a hair salon.
Entrance to the spa is often free if you stay at the hotel, but not always. With some exceptions, it is possible to visit the spa in
the hotel, you do not even live on. The entrance is usually included if you book a treatment.
It is customary to tip the masseur if you are satisfied with the treatment. 10 percent may be appropriate.
Dress code varies, but bikini works in most public areas. Do you massage, you can pretty much choose to have your own panties
/ bikini, or to borrow a disposable brief.
Not all treatments suitable for everyone. For example, people with diabetes should be cautious foot treatments, because the
risk of infection is increased. Pregnant women should be cautious with the use of certain oils and some types of massage, but
many have their own spa treatments for expectant mothers. Enlighten always about any health problems.
