One of my travel highlights is to find the best massage clinic in wherever it is I go. Thankfully, Dumaguete did nit disappoint. In favt, they have close to 20 massage clinics scattered all over the city. I opted to try Grand Royale Spa because I'm a big fan of their clinic in Cebu (near Capitol).
The location is a bit difficult to find since the signage is small and is way up the top of the building. Just look for Qualfon's building and it's just across. It's on the 3rd floor, on top of a coffee in the same building.
When you step inside, you'll be welcomed by a rather dark but tastefully decorated reception area. The clinic is decidedly Asian-inspired with huge portrait of a Buddha (or atleast that's what I think that was). There's also a small fountain/pond area just below the Buddha.
The receptionist is very friendly. She even gave me a discouny because I went in just before the promo ended. I paid php278.00 instead of php320.00
I was ushered into a smallish room with a massage table. They do have an undergarment/shorts you can change into before the massage starts. They even have a wash basin you can soak your feet into.
The masseur I got was very good. Too good. I think he was too eager to get rid of all my "lamig". Overall, I'm very satisfied with the massage and I will definitely be back once I'm in Dumaguete again. read more
