6/26/25@1130 I called for a 90 minute massage. The lady was really nice but her technique wasn't! She was all over the place and kept missing the knots along my vertebrae! That's when I realized that she wasn't a licensed massage therapist ! So I stopped her and still paid for half an hr. I've been here before and had many fantastic massages but now I don't think I'll be returning read more

I see thanny! She is the best & always gives me the best body massages. I work in the hair industry & need a lot of self care when it comes to my body & muscles, I always feel my very best everytime I leave. read more

My husband comes here often on like a monthly base. He said I had to make a review for Thanny because she's really good! She has strong hands and she knows exactly where the pain spots are and where to target. Thanny takes care and is very professional. Definitely come check it out here. It's clean, vibe is relaxing, and welcoming. read more

Thanny fixed my wife's lower back pain within 3 minutes. What an amazing job she did and her shop is very clean, relaxing and quiet. I highly recommend her. read more

Awesome massage! Awesome prices! Awesome experience scheduling last minute appointments! Clean and quiet, for the most part. I avoid traffic hour because you can hear traffic from the 1st room, but otherwise no complaints! read more

I was on O'ahu visiting from a neighbor island and looked on yelp for help in finding a masseuse. They were able to accommodate a same day appointment for a 1 hour massage. The masseuse Thanny( I think that was her name) was great and really worked on my shoulders where I wanted the most focus on, but she also did a full body massage using a combination of massage techniques. The place was very clean, calming, nicely decorated and staff was professional and friendly, and made me feel comfortable. Prices were very reasonable and I felt I got a great price for a very quality experience. Based on my experience I can't wait to go back the next time I am visiting O'ahu! read more

My husband and I got a couples massage in this very professional establishment. I enjoyed my massage, my husband did not but we are also not the best at stating our specific strength needs. I love Thai massages though and would recommend and return. I'm only giving it 4 stars bc my masseuse smelled like cigarettes read more

I was suffering with tightness in my back so decided to give Thai massage a try. I was greeted by two women that were sweet. I was escorted to my room and given instructions. When my massage technician came in she asked me which massage I wanted. I chose the 90 min combination Thai deep tissue. She spent the majority of my 90 mins on my back, shoulders and neck working out my many knots. She was attentive and courteous, often asking if the pressure was too hard. She did a full body massage, but not to much stretching as I expected in a Thai massage The place was very clean and tranquil. Sure to back one day soon read more

Located in Waimalu Shopping Center. It's on the second floor of the adjacent building in the parking area. It has a separate small parking lot that has its own entrance. Additional parking in the main lot. This massage is very relaxing. Staff are super friendly and great. The hour long massage goes by almost too fast it's so good. They offer a lot of different massage service and combinations. They offer gift certificates which I love to give. Everyone who gets one raves to me about how wonderful their massage was. Well worth the price. read more

I'm on here because of Thanny! She's so awesome! She hit all the right spots and is the sweetest! So professional and really knows what she's doing. She addressed all the issues I was having and totally fit it! Thank you so much Thanny! read more

I used to love this place,but quality has gone down a bit. Every since covid, people have gotten lazy and adjusted hours to basically not work anymore. My massage was routine, no stretching, no thai anything. The masseuse was an older lady and nice,but she couldnt handle me or even make a dent in my muscles. I still tipped,but sooo disappointed. Guess times change. read more

I really did not want to write this review. But I'm going to because - sharing is caring. My massage therapist is the best I've been to in my whole life. And believe you/me - I've been to A LOT of massage therapists in my life. For anyone who has chronic pain - try this place out. I actually felt better after I left the building, normally - I only feel better during the massage, not after. I tipped 100% because she deserved it. I think I might tear up just writing this, it really was that good of a massage. Hands from the heavens is an accurate description I read on another review. Thank the Lord I called, and also Thanks to God that someone had cancelled. I hope I've inspired you enough to make an appointment here - it's worth it! read more

Had the best deep tissue massage from Mayo. Came in with achey knots and tension in my neck/shoulders and she knew exactly where to focus with pressure. Already booked my next appt. read more

Can we say I'm in luv w/Thanny!! I called and ask if she could see me since I had so many knots in my upper back and shoulder.... She put pressure on all the right spots and I left there feeling like soft tofu!! Hahaha It's clean and I felt safe during this crazy pandemic. I will have to start seeing her weekly!! read more

It's been a long time since I fell asleep on the massage table. This place is the best!

I've been having a lot of back pain recently so I decided to get a massage here, it was great! The environment was so relaxing and the masseuse made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. This place was also cheaper than other places that were recommended to me, I got a 1 hour deep tissue massage for $70. Highly recommend:) read more

I'm so glad they opened back up. Still clean and awesome massage. I'm gonna make it my monthly self care. read more

Sukotai Massage is a life saver. I had been having really bad neck and shoulder pain for three days... you know the kind where it hurts to turn your head. I have always wanted to try a Thai style massage and this place is located close to home with good reviews so I decided to give it a shot. I called a couple times with no answer (I guess it gets busy) so I left a voice message and I got a call back within 20 minutes and got a same day appointment. Parking is free with a two hour maximum at the new two story building at Waimalu shopping plaza across from Zippy's and Chun Wah Kam. I went upstairs and signed a history form and waiver and got taken in right away to a private room where I had to dress down. The table was clean and the sheets smelled super fresh. My therapist was Yuri. She was fantastic! I'm 5'1 and taller than Yuri but she has the strength of a tiger! She even walked down my back and legs and stretched out my stiff muscles. I asked for firm pressure and I got it. Afterwards, she used a hot towel to wipe the lotion off and everything felt good. I was able to walk out pain free and I can turn my head and even relax my shoulders. I paid $70 for a one hour Thai/deep tissue combo massage plus tip. I will definitely be back! read more

Such an unassuming place and pleasant experience! Sukotai is very professional and very clean. I had Santi and she provided a relaxing combination Thai + Swedish massage that has me coming back for a second massage. read more

Mayo just gave the most amazing massage I've ever received! Ive had a bad flare-up of chronic neck and back pain and was in need of some relief. I called day of and was told they had availability. This was my first visit to Sukotai massage, and will definitely not be my last. It was very clean and the room was comfortable. After asking if there were any areas of focus, Mayo began to work her magic! She has excellent technique and knew every single spot to hit. She is very considerate and asked if the pressure was ok and how i was feeling throughout. Im amazed at how many knots she was able to work and how much relief she was able to provide after just one massage! I feel relaxed and so thankful for Mayo! read more

First Thai massage for me. Excellent! Classy vibe, clean and friendly staff. Wonderful massages. Would definitely go back.

Why 5 stars? Because this might be the best massage I've ever had. --- --- --- After a long flight to Hawaii, and a very bumpy ATV ride at Kualoa Ranch, I was in desperate need for a massage before flying 8 hours back to Houston. Really, really desperate need. I looked up a couple of different places who offered Thai massage, and was unsuccessful in finding a day-of appointment. Thankfully, Sukotai called me back, and I was all set for something just before heading to the airport. I wish I could remember the person who performed my massage, but she was absolutely unbelievable. She was moving pretty rapidly between different positions and types of massage, but the entire process was a well-oiled machine. It was incredibly relaxing and helped me feel infinitely better for that long plane ride. She incorporated some ashiatsu, as well as some deep tissue, and some other things I didn't even know about. Her strength per pound ratio was quite hard to believe. Thanks Sukotai for saving the day! If I lived here, I would be back every month! read more

Definitely well worth the visit. The small parking lot is a bit weird since it's adjacent to the shopping center entrance/Zippys but closer to the corner of the street so it can be hard to get into when there's a little traffic. It's also a max of 2hr parking and they will tow. The massages though are amazing and they are very accommodating. I ended having to go here after a poor trip to massage envy so that they could actually work out my knots! I walked in and they were able to see me 30 mins later with no appointment. I can't wait to use up my massage envy hrs just so I can cancel it and give this place all of my business. I went for the 90 min Thai/deep tissue combo and it was well worth it. If you want just a light massage/Swedish massage for relaxation then you can stick with massage envy. If you're like me and need a legit, firm/deep pressure massage because your body hurts then go here. read more

Magic and healing hands that leaves me feeling good like I'm in heaven. They always know the areas that needs the most attention but also provides quality time to the rest of the body. They always find a way to take me in on the same day I call in. Sukotai has become my very favorite massage location and will continue to do business with them. read more

Sukotai Massage 1 - Massage Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

My mom's birthday was coming up and wanted to give her a nice massage. I decided on this place after reading all of the great reviews! I called 4 days in advance and they were able to give me the slot time I wanted for my mom. The day of her appointment, my mom was held up at the DMV trying to renew her license. I knew for a fact we would not be able to make it to Sukotai by 11. I called 9:30 asking if there was any way I could push her appointment back another hour. Surprisingly, the lady on the phone was very friendly and was able to move our appointment. My mom LOVED her massage, she kept raving on how Thanny was so friendly, how comfortable she was, how much lighter she feels and how Thanny has hands from the heavens. She got the Lomi Lomi and deep tissue. Cannot wait to try this place for myself and I will post an updated review. 10/10 as a gift to someone you love! read more

My go-to massage place, and as for my go to person, I am in love with Tammy. I've been going there of sciatic pain in conjunction with my chiropractor and PT appointments. She is able to loosen everything up and get me mobile again especially after hard days at work, standing up on the floor for 8hrs running around will take a toll on you. The techniques vary each time but Tammy (along with the other awesome and courteous staff) makes sure to check the pressure being applied, how you're feeling and what other areas are being affected through your massage. Soft music plays in the background and the lights are dim helping me relax and occasionally doze off. No strong odors or strong perfumes/essential oils for those who may be allergic or sensitive to certain scents. I don't necessarily have sensitive skin, but some products do make me breakout, but I have never experienced a breakout or allergic reaction to any of the products they use. There are 60min and 90min massages available, they get full quick so try to call in advance. Price wise it is very affordable. I go several times a month to help relieve some pains and stiffness built up in my shoulders and lower back. After 10stamps (10 60min OR 90min massages) you can redeem your stamp card for 1 free massage 60min or 90min depending on which card was stamped (does that even make sense?) Ex: After 10 60min massages your 11th one is free, just present your stamp card at time of payment to redeem. Absolutely love this place. read more

I had been going to Thai Issan - Keeaumoku but I live on the leeward side and didn't want to dive into town just for a massage. So, I Yelped and found this gem in semi-ghetto Waimalu Shopping Center -of all places. But it's in a newer building on the corner near Zippy's, so it's nice and clean inside and out. This is actually my second time here and had Thanny (sp?) as my therapist for a Thai (deep tissue) massage. She was great! I like the step massaging better because she can put firmer, more focused pressure on your muscles. She always made sure you were o.k. throughout the session and worked like she was gonna miss the bus or something; unlike some other places that only put firm pressure about half the time and play "patty-cake" the other half (you massage vets know what I mean). She also incorporated some light stretching as well as hot stone and warm towel treatments which went way beyond any other straightforward massages I've ever had. I also like that I can call for same-day appointment (on a weekday -not sure how busy they are on the weekend). Sukotai is now my go-to spot for Thai massage! read more

Went here sometimes last year 2015 and it was great. Made me fall asleep. Not to sure who was my masseuse but she was great too. Asked me if the pressure was good an all. Went again in 2017. Still as great as the first time. read more

I've been waking up with a sore back for a few days. Probably from just sleeping funny as my bed is new. So I wanted to get a massage. I called this place and maybe because it was a weekday, I easily got an appointment. The woman that answered, asked what I wanted, I told her I wanted to try the Thai massage as I've never had one. When I got there, I asked her to recommend something for me and she recommended the Thai and Deep Tissue Massage ($70/hr). It was totally worth it. I'm not good with pain, and let me tell you, it was a little more pain than I wanted, but she worked out all the knots on my back and in my shoulders. Painful but felt great. She also stepped on my back, used hot rocks, and stretches. The stretches were great. I will definitely be going back. read more

Couples Massage with My Brother Yeah, my brother Cary Y. and I had a couples massage. Brothers can do that. It's not creepy, it's endearing! Lol. Before coming here he warned me that a Thai massage can be rough and painful. He was not lying. Even though it was at times unbearable I LOVED IT! What does this say about me... tough as nails that's what! ;D Sukotai Massage is such a great place. So professional and an ideal place to relieve stress and promote relaxation. The rooms are kept clean and the staff are talented. For a couples massage we payed $125 for an hour long massage. They even went a little over!! Score! They do take card, but if you pay with cash you can get a kama'aina discount! Did I mention this was my first massage? If I thought massages were weird it was really shocking when my massage therapist got on the table (I think her name was Tingy) and literally her knees were on the back of my legs and she was rubbing my back! I remember thinking, what the Hell!?! I didn't know if I was getting a massage or being attacked. I looked over to see if my brother was getting the same. I didn't know if this was normal! I was freaking out! Also at one point I was in the missionary position getting stretched! And I was the bottom! Coming here for my first massage was jarring and it took a little time to get used to it. I wouldn't have had it any other way though! :D I don't think I could do a non Thai massage now. It won't be as exciting! Nothing like getting your arms and thighs slapped while hearing your brother's back being cracked to help you forget the world. Ahhh... Tingy was such a lady, but also a beast! She worked out all the kinks from my back, neck, hands, and legs. If there were any knots in there she killed them with her surprisingly strong hands. She made sure I was always comfortable and not hurting...TOO much! Hahaha. She was a gem and before she left the room she said "sorry for hurting you" while she laughed! I want to go back monthly. Right now my body is as limp as a noodle ;D You should try it!!! Ask for Tingy and tell them Chad Y. sent you! Hahaha! read more

Sukotai Massage 1 - Therapeutic massages only! LOL - Massage Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

This massage place is no frills, you get what you pay for. You get a quality massage, the masseuse are awesome at assessing your problems areas (back, neck, arms)... The massage combination consist of Thai, Swedish style massage, they also stretch and help with mobility when they spot a knot in the muscle and work it out.. After the awesome massage, they bust out with the hot towels and wipe you down, very professional, relaxing environment. Its located in the Hawaiian monarch hotel, (looks kinda strange seedy hotel from the outside). After the massage they have a quaint cute restaurant brunch place called cream pot, the best brunch place in town... and then directly down on the bottom floor across the dive bar, there is a awesome Japanese hair place where they do a shampoo scalp massage at Sato Beauty Salon. You can get pampered and eat here all in one day :) read more

So we saw this crazy good deal on Yelp and 45 mins later was whisked away to Thailand. Despite my Citizen of the World I.D. I have never had the pleasure of experiencing a Thai style massage. Mostly because it always sounded like a bizarre erotic experience. Have you seen those "shows" in Thailand? Anyways, this was cray. At one point the lady was in a backwards bridge above me and our heads were touching like Siamese twins. "You ok?" "Uh.. yea. YOU ok?" These tiny ladies sure worked out the kinks and knots. Good thing I kept some shorts on, otherwise the mouse would have definitely been out of the house a few times. I mean, are my legs supposed to even bed that way?! I'll need to go back and relax as this time i was too on edge as to what was going to happen next. (Yelp Challenge: 1/31) read more

I saw some negative reviews here among the swarm of gushing ones. I'm gonna add to the ones gushing about this place. I.LOVED. IT.!! I've only had two massages ever, this being the second and was my favorite. So not saying much. But my wife has had several over her life and she said it was the best she has ever had. We had the couples massage. I got the swedish and my wife got the Sukotai special, the rocks with the swedish thai mix. Mine was $60 and hers was $80---a very reasonable prices for each of our massages considering it's downtown Honolulu. Everyone was very polite and friendly. They asked us to take off our shoes, then complete a short sheet asking "where it hurt" etc. They then brought my wife and I into a small room for our couples massage. For you guys wondering (i always worry about what I should wear to a message as I AM NOT free-balling it) her masseuse asked her to disrobe and I kept my boxers on. They keep you covered up the whole time. They left while we got ready, while calm soothing music played. I'll give some highlights only. They ladies giving us the massage (mine was Nita) were tiny ladies. So imagine our surprise when they mounted the bed while using their legs, knees, weight to massage those hard to get places, like back, legs, calves, etc. It was a little weird at first, but they were actually very professional and classy about it. Nothing weird or sexual. They put my legs and arms in various positions and used the oil to message and relax my achy muscles. After it all was done (I swear that hour seemed like 2!) they went out and brought back some very warm hand-towels that smelled great. They wiped our arms, legs down. the Hot water quickly dissipated and left a cool sensation where the air hit the water and it felt so good. The relaxing oil, massage, hot then cool sensation worked wonders. They were very polite the whole time. I was having a hard time relaxing when I got here, because I could not leave work behind. Once I left, felt a complete 180 change and felt so good! This will be a tradition each yea I come back to Oahu. read more

I just left this place about 15 minutes ago and couldn't wait to write a review! I called at 10am, they had time at 11am. Perfect! I got there about 15 minutes early and she took me to the room right away. She even massaged me up until noon! She listened to what my problem areas were, and man, she nailed it. Everything was spot on where my pain was. Hands down the best massage I've had, and I have been going to Massage envy for almost 10 years... I've been through a lot of masseuses' but she was awesome (thanny or sathi?? I'm not too sure). I will definitely be back here! read more

I was in need of a massage, so I remembered my friend saying he went to this place recently from a Groupon deal. I looked on Groupon and the deal was still there, so I bought it, called for an appointment and got in the same day. Located upstairs in the two story building right in front of Waimalu Zippy's in a separate lot. Well decorated and very clean and air conditioned. I went in for a Thai massage. I was given a Thai clothing set to change into for the massage. My body goes through so much with Olympic weightlifting and work, I really needed help getting the knots out. My masseuse was friendly and very professional. I felt so relaxed. I really enjoyed it and I would recommend this place! read more

Okay I went here again today and again they were exceptionally courteous and listened really well. I got the 90 minute massage with hot stones. I had a new masseuse instead of one of the two Thai ladies. The new girl was very polite and professional but not quite as acrobatic as the other two women so I wasn't folded into a pretzel and manipulated until all knots were eliminated. However, she did perform a very good relaxing massage and if I were interested in just going in order to nap and relax rather than relieve stress related muscle pain then this would have been perfect. She did do one thing that bothers me with almost every masseuse I get (not the wonderful Thai ladies though!). When she asked if the pressure was okay (and it was because it was nice and deep) after I said yes she eased up dramatically. Why do they do that after you just told them you liked it the way it was? But for 60 bucks it's still a huge deal. read more

Oh Sukotai, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. My boyfriend and I have consistently been coming to see Thanny and her team for the last two years, and every time I have tried anywhere/anyone else I have left disappointed. I came across this gem while looking for nearby massage places in Aiea, and called ahead and set an appointment. From the beginning Thanny has been extremely gracious and professional, consistently asking me about any problem areas to focus on. Especially when I was having a few career changes and spent the majority of my work days on my feet, I tended to have a lot of lower and upper back pain. Thanny always has patiently and thoroughly worked on my problem areas and helped soothe my aches. I always get Thai/Deep and whenever I recommend this place to friends or family I always make note that I feel like rejuvenated afterwards. Thank you Thanny! read more

Pretty good massage; I was happy with the service and the 60 minute massage felt like forever; thank goodness! My bestfriend and I actually got a couples massage in their couple's therapy room. It was actually quite nice! We both got the swedish/thai massage combo which is actually really great because they intergrated a lot of great stretches to only compliment the massage techniques. It was pretty amazing and I felt really relaxed after. They warned me that I would be sore the next day because of all the tension they had to relieve of me. I did feel sore, but still felt good about the massage. After the massage, they wipe you down with hot towels so you don't feel greasy when you walk out. The facility is clean, and the atmosphere is relaxing. There is no sauna, steam room, or jacuzzing though. It's just a massage spot, but it's well worth it! If you're staying in the neighborhood, I highly recommend this shop as their prices aren't as bad as the resort spas, and the massages are high quality! Get yours! read more

Wicked awesome massage! I struggled with the choice of paying more money for a fancy spa with free-flowing fountains and huge showers and an entrance reminiscent of Roman baths... but when it comes down to it, I just want a massage and a relaxing experience. This place is small, quaint, and in no way has the capacity for the theatrical eccentricities and extras that other expensive spas may offer. But their massages and their masseuses were amazing. They walk you through the process, they don't speak much unless they need to, they mold the experience for you. I got a combination massage of Thai/deep/Swedish and I was afraid of the Thai portion but they reassured me and when I went through with it I was glad. There are some interesting positions that you will go through and at times wonder how you can even stretch that far, but the end result is just as good if not better than those expensive massage places. I felt rejuvenated, relaxed, and yes, slightly sore (in a good way). The ladies are calm, courteous, and polite. I had no issues whatsoever and will definitely come again. Parking is in the hotel structure and is validated by them so at least there's no hassle with that aspect. read more
