Title: Review: Ocean Spa
Date: Nov 28, 2018
Phone:
City: Lake Hopatcong
State: NJ
Address: Route 15
Activities: A good massage experience
Age Estimate: mid 40's
Nationality: Korean
Physical Description: Average with a little extra
Summary: I was in the area and decided to give Ocean Spa a try. They are on Rte. 15 in Lake Hopatcong. I went in and 2 women were there, both probably in their mid 40's or so. One led me back with her arm around me and mine around her.

In the room she collected the house fee which is $60 for the hour. There is a price list with other times and prices but I was focused on the price for an hour. I got undressed while the woman left with the house fee. In a few minutes she came back in.
Her name is Cherry. She had me lay face down. She covered me with a towel. After some small talk, she started an acupressure massage through the towel. At some point she removed the towel from my upper half and with oil started a pretty good Swedish style massage.
She has a very good touch. Sometimes strong and sometimes softer. She worked on my upper half: neck, shoulders, hands and back for a good amount of time before moving down to my legs, removing the towel from that area. She worked on my butt, legs and feet for a while. She used long slow strokes which felt very good.

She worked on me from head to toe while I was face down. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. It felt very good.

At about the half hour mark she used hot towels to get the oil off. She did not do much of a ST before having me flip over. After the flip she started a ST on my chest and stomach area but then she caught me by surprise. She said that she would like to be tipped first. I said I never tip 1st and would tip later. She said she would like the tip 1st, so I gave her the minimum I tip for an hour massage which is $40. She asked for more and I said no but that if more was given then a larger tip would be given.

Using oil she worked on the front of me again from head to toe. She used the same wonderful touch that she used on the other side of me. The massage lasted the full hour.

It was a nice massage experience. The only thing that was a big turn -off was the up front tip. When I was getting dressed I told her that she would make more money if she did not ask for the tip 1st. I told her that most guys do not like that. I told her that I might have tipped a little more if she did not ask for the tip 1st.

I have to say that it was nice that she did do a full body massage front and back. Most places spend most of the hour working on the back, neck and shoulder area. Cherry did not. She made sure that she worked on every part front and back. I liked that a lot and for that I would have tipped a little extra.


Even though I had a nice time I am not sure that I would go back because of the upfront tipping and that a tip was even asked for.

Hopefully she will not ask for a tip at all with other customers.
Recommendation: No

Can’t stand it when they ask for tip 1st. If the girl has great reviews I’ll do tip upfront. If not, no tip until the end. If they don’t like it finish the hour with a therapeutic massage and leave her 10 or 20 bucks depending on her mood.

If they don't know you they might not know if you want extra fun. Getting tip means that they know what's up. Might go to Cubbard for a condom or go wash their box for you some places might be under scrutiny get from management. To with hold extras money in places other than room or hold girls money do they keep all girls tips somewhat equal. Perhaps you're only in it for therapeutic massage so some of this all may not apply. Some girls are afraid they're gonna get ripped off as well. Give great service to a guy then he plays with Monopoly money or just says he's broke after session. Douche bag guys do that sometimes I hate getting asked upfront as well but don't let it anger me to a point I gave a bad session

The session wasn't bad. I received what I came there for which was a good massage and a standard AMP experience but anyone asking for a tip up front is a turn-off. That is the only reason I do not recommend this place. This is not a FS type of place. I understand about girls not wanting to get ripped off. Some guys are jerks that way but asking for a tip up front does not help a place bring in business.

What it does is make them more vulnerable to LE activity if cops went under cover. A woman asking for money up front for any kind of service is not going to go over well.

I thought about not agreeing to her requests to tip 1st & just letting her finish the massage and tipping her only $20 if she went the full hour which she did. I usually would not tip 1st but I knew that for the $40 I would get what I wanted.

I also thought it might be helpful to her to tell her that it is not a good idea to ask for a tip 1st as that would turn guys off. I am hopeful she would follow that advice but I am not sure that she will. Time will tell.

Adding to my review, the place appears to be new and is very clean. I counted 5 massage room all with doors on my walk back to the bathroom. My massage room door did not have a lock.
I did not notice any shower and a shower was not offered.
