Kody S

Yes! Pasha! He was my go to when I visited NYC pre-pandemic. I don’t see him on any of the sites, but I believe he stopped massaging, yes?

Also have the same question! Thanks.

I also enjoy Ethan. His place has a very clean, easy to find, a very nice guy, and gives a good massage—-I agree with other’s comments. PM me for details.

If you like Asian guys on the younger and/leaner side, you might try Shangrila. My experience there has been quite good both in terms of massage and ambiance (but that’s just me). PM me for details.

I would try Jorge in NYC. He is in my top five in the US and checks all the boxes. https://rentmasseur.com/Jorge_M

Sounds like he is working the internet with a pretty successful “tease” factor. I’ve run into quite a lot of high prices and suspect advertising lately on the various sites. When the ads say “ask” on price, that’s never a good sign. But I “ask” nonetheless just to get a feel for where providers are. One such provider said this “I know my rate is high at $200/hr” when I asked what is included he said “nude massage but anything that goes in any hole is extra.” So beware of massage-noodling I guess? Haha. Pass.

Yes, try Mike. He is consistently good in my experience and also try the table shower there. PM me for more details.

Also interested…

Also interested as he is coming through my city.

Tim: so sorry that happened to you at the Spa. It should never have happened and I join the others in encouraging you to report the masseur who demanded a bigger tip and then did a sub-par massage. That happened to me once at a Spa in NYC but it wasn’t on the table, but afterward went to the front desk to check out. The masseur said I was to pay a $30 minimum tip, for a 90min session. I asked him why since I had him before and he never said anything about the amount of my tip. We hashed it out then and there. I was more disappointed than anything else. I know these guys are trying to make a living but they won’t make as much as they could if they do not great their customers right.

Bump 👍 totally my type.

Thank you for the recommendation. Tim looks like a good one. I will have to give him a try next time out there.

He looks familiar but I can’t place him. I know I haven’t hired him in PS. In fact a I’ve never had a good massage experience in PS. If you or anyone has a good recommendation, please let me know.

I have had both Mike and Scott recently and both were good experiences. Massage plus table shower afterwards. The table shower is extra but worth it. I didn’t know Rodrigo was still there? I thought he left pre-covid.

Thanks guy! Since I started the thread a while back this is good feedback. He is in town and I may see what happens. I am not going in any grand expectations but am curious. PM me if you want to share anything specific.

Reached out to him while in Europe. No response until today, about a month later. He apologized for not responding sooner because he was very busy… same as others have commented here. He lives in Paris but often comes to NYC he said. His texts were polite and we chatted a bit. May give him a try if we are in the same city soon. His prices are not massage prices though.

Yes absolutely I add my recommendation for Jorge for all the reasons cited.

@KensingtonHomoYeah I get that. He really is a nice guy even so. I enjoyed meeting him experiencing his massage. The many comments on the forum here give a fair overview of the pros and cons.

Absolutely pass. Do not pass GO and save your $200.

I had a very good experience with him.

It’s been a couple of years but PM me if you want more info.

Totally agree. Amazing experience and will definitely. Repeat.

Hey Guys: Anybody have info on Alex at ShangriLa Spa in NYC? I have had Mike in the past but not any of the other newer guys there. Looking for someone who has good massage skills. If no info on Alex is there a private masseur you could recommend in the city who delivers? It has been a while since I’ve been in town and most of ones I used in the past have since gone in to other things post-covid. Thanks

Also interested. Totally my type.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a Latino masseur at Shangri-la?
