Fabienne that used to be on Orient all the time now offer hotel, villa, timeshare service. She also does massage on the beach at orient, but you need to check with her about when she is there. Here are her rates: http://www.info-res.com/orientmassage/Is she the Fabienne that use to be at LaPlaya? She was very good.

I have used Brian from Touch of Handz before, when he came to our room at Beachside Villas. It was wonderful. When you say it's not the same in the room, I guess it depends where your room is! DId you do it on the deck outside, or inside the living room? Any chance they can do a couples where you are at the same time?

I recall seeing a photo on Google of Cupecoy, recently, and at the top of the cliff there was a massage table. Is there massage available there? Been to Cupecoy many times and never saw that in person.

If it is, then it's not what I'm looking for.

Yes. It's much easier for the masseuse without having to work around under garments. In our parts the regulatory bodies that certify RMT's are very strict re: proper draping and 99.999% of RMTs would not jeopardize their license with inappropriate touching, which in reality could be done clothed, naked, draped or undraped. We had RMT massages in Sept at a fancy spa just to use up our annual benefits. The form I signed had a separate signature spot for me to acknowledge that I was ok with the RMT massaging my buttocks / glutes through the sheet that covered me. No signature would have made them a "no fly" zone. IMO though semi clothed massages are like wearing your bathing suit in a hot tub...not doing either. LOL

We talked to Fabienne yesterday and she will be changing her pricing to reflect $85 on the beach and $110 at your villa or hotel.

We talked to Fabienne yesterday and she will be changing her pricing to reflect $85 on the beach and $110 at your villa or hotel. That is a reasonable change and puts her back on our activity list. Unless she was always fully booked at the higher rates (doubtful since she changed her rates) she will make it up in volume. The McDonald's of Massages.

When you say McDonald's of massages does that mean ordinary and low end? Not at all....lower price @ same quality = additional booked sessions = increased overall revenue. Assuming she does 5 sessions a day at $120 per day she would only need 2 additional $85 sessions a day to make up most of the revenue difference. She will get us 2 one day for sure at $85ea. We will book sessions with her that we would not have booked @ $120. Our $170 is > than $0 from us Sitting watching an empty massage table b'cus fewer folks will pay $120 is bad business. $85 is a more realistic price point and should generate more clients Now if she is jam packed at $120 then she is wrong to reduce prices. If she has empty slots during any given day then she should be grabbing passerbys on the beach with discounted rates to maintian the revenue flow. Once an empty table hour has passed there is no recovering that lost revenue whatever rate was set. Overtime some parts of the service industry will shift to the UBER / LYFT models = during busy times there is a price surge. If Fabienne has popular timeslots like mid afternoon, she should charge more for those times. Discount the 9AM to noon period perhaps?
