New massage place – half of the former Club Love and run by the Tangmo group. Our friend in Phuket has been in to try it and we’ve written his review up here: http://www.nickysgaythailand.com/gay-blog
They advertise themselves as the only “men only” guesthouse!
They are the second soi from the action in Paradise, so are a little quieter than some other places.
The rooms are good and clean and offer all the facilities you’d expect. They list: Free American breakfast: Free entrance to all their facilities: No extra tax or charge: No joiner fee: Lots of free extras included: Monthly prices available all year long
They also have a Sauna and offer massage facilities as well as a very good restaurant and bar! In fact this just about covers all the things you could want from a holiday without leaving the place!
We tried their massage and noted they have correct massage tables with facewells (although there was a pillow over it). The rooms were spotlessly clean and there was a really efficient shower after. It was a nice set up.

Blue Dolphin is a gay-owned massage parlour with hotel rooms for gay people. They are located in the gay area of the Paradise Complex, on a nice, quiet and safe pedestrian street, yet close to the bars and discos and about 10 minutes away from the beach. The perfect location for a fun and comfortable sleep …
All rooms with private bathroom and hot water, air-condition unit, minibar, safe deposit box, cable TV and good quality mattress. Free WIFI internet available in every room.
The massage itself is good. The rooms are well set up and the boys give a nice service. There is a good shower when you finish and the whole experience is a good one.

Fun massage place in the main walkway area of the Paradise Complex by the front of Mein Schatz.
The boys are good at calling you in. Once they’ve got you, it’s a fairly normal set up. Mattresses on the floor, reasonable shower (although I couldn’t find the hot) and nice service.
I left happy!
Kai bar is one of the smaller bars on the entry road to the complex. Being away from the main area, it suffers, but the boys are friendly and the prices are OK. If you want a quiet drink with a nice lad, then this is the place to go.
They also do massage upstairs. They have one room with a double size mattress on the floor. At least they cover it with a clean (silk?) sheet and make it look inviting. The room itself is a bit scruffy, but it does have air-conditioning and they do a good massage (if you get the right boy).
It was a little expensive, but I “think they saw me coming”. The shower is nice and spacious, but there was no hot water. Worth trying once.

Nice massage place with a great reputation. It’s been there a long time.
The word of warning is the spiral stair to get upstairs. It’s lethal! But having negotiated that, the rooms are large enough and have mattresses on raised platforms. The service was very good and the shower at the end was warm enough and powerful enough.
400B for an oil massage was a little more than some places, but it was a good experience and I would go back.
They have a good website here – http://www.men-massage-patong.com/
Small massage place in the first (entrance) soi of the Paradise Complex. Seemed to have mainly ladies there, but a couple of boys. They were keen for business, but I’d run out of time. As it was mixed, I’ll be honest and say I didn’t try it.
If anyone can write me a report I’d be grateful. Otherwise it’s a definite on the list for next time.
Massage and bar in the heart of the Paradise Complex. The décor is laid on really thick. The massage room is upstairs and not too private with curtains dividing the mattresses. The boys are good at their craft and the happy ending was certainly happy.
Nicely air conditioned and reasonable shower to clean up afterwards.
Good place – definitely recommended.
New sauna in Phuket Town

Everything is brand new and clean. Inside the compound you will find locker rooms, showers, dry sauna, steam sauna room, gym and bar and of course a cruising area. There is also an outdoor café and a karaoke room.

Owner Khun Noi welcome you.

This is a mixed massage, but the boys have their own “entrance round the back” so to speak. Make sure that you go to the back entrance opposite Backstage if you’re interested in boy massage.
It’s a really nice place. They have good massage tables and the rooms are separated by partition walls, so you get a good degree of privacy. They’re not soundproof though! The bed was set up with the classic “two swan” towel arrangement and was very clean. They gave great service and I probably had the best massage there I’ve had in Phuket. Great shower, hot and good supply of water afterwards.
All in all this scored a good 9 out of 10.
It doesn’t get enough publicity as it’s mixed, but it should get more …
