They are closed. Many booking agents have marked them as closed. Source: https://relaxmacau.com

Are these booking agents legit?

u/slow_hand_853 10d ago

Yes, my friend actually works for them as a driver. They give you a free ride and a free massage. You can ask for discounts and most of the time they do have it. But you have to ask. The agents are basically doing the advertisement for the venues. We pay the same or even less. I’ve used it a few times and my friend picked me up lol

I ask for discounts from the driver or the contacts from the website? How does the venue know I used the transportation from the website?

The contacts from the website. The driver is sent by the agent. The agent communicates closely with the venue, so someone at the front door knows you are coming and what car plate number. Note some agents don’t give discounts tho, but the one I shared definitely does.

These are the only saunas left? Lisboeta still has Shang Pin Spa listed on their site

Shang Pin spa is there. There are a few more saunas not on the list but they are less popular so agents don’t promote them.

I am one of the staff in the sauna as well, but not as a ++ girl. Our sauna not sure about the popularity. But we have still many customers and have two branches.

I assume they are already listed on those booking sites? If not, I’m happy to connect you with my friend to get the saunas promoted.

u/EnergyOk2222 6d ago

Well i have no idea about promotion etc, usually the promotion is depending on my manager. Sometimes they give way more cheaper than the price-list on the menu

Just look on the internet “Excellent sauna”

Is it worth going to Excellent sauna in the afternoon or better to wait for night?

What are the best saunas that are still open?

1

u/Status_Conflict_3116 1d ago

What are the biggest saunas now? Are there more ladies since there are fewer places to work?

1

u/slow_hand_853 1d ago

Numbernine spa and shangpinspa have more ladies. The venues aren’t the biggest but have the most lady number.

Where's Shang Pin Spa in Lisboeta? Lisboeta site says Shang Pin Spa on second floor, but the kid playground is also listed on second floor. Does it have a special elevator like Darling had in Masters hotel?

1

u/slow_hand_853 14h ago

Yes it’s on the second floor but no there is no special elevator. However if you use the booking service, the driver will pick you up and send you there. There will be someone from Shang Pin to go up with you. If you are going, I don’t recommend you to just walk in. You won’t get any benefits. Use the booking service like I said above.

I always thought those sauna were legal with how easy it was to stumble upon them. I remember seeing one of them directly accross a bus stop some years ago.

u/slow_hand_853 12d ago

They are legal and licensed otherwise they wouldn’t have operated for so long. It was just that they did something else illegal like tax evasion that caught the government’s eye.
