Day 1: Arrived at Batam @ 1:30pm for a 3D2N trip, checked into Nagoya One hotel, a 2 star hotel located about 5 mins drive from Nagoya Hill shopping mall. Stayed in the biggest room, a Family room, as the pricing of the rooms were cheap (booked on Agoda) and also it was a total of 3 other buddies I was travelling with. Went for lunch at A&W then some Ayam Penyet across the street at a stall. Total about 100k spent on food.
Toured around Nagoya hill for a massage, comparing prices. Checked out the infamous Delta Spa to see what it was like inside. Entered and was greeted by the receptionist. I requested for the menu of their massages and was asked if it was the first time here, "yes it is" I said. She then gave us a wristband and was brought upstairs to talk to another receptionist that will explain to us the price. She also told us that we had a 15 min limit of being upstairs, if we exceeded the time limit we will be charged at 100k+ per person. so we paid a close attention to the time as we headed up. The receptionist upstairs told us to wait and take a seat at the sofas, as she claimed she was "busy", gave about 13 mins and she was still busy. At this point decided that they were just trying to cheat our 100Ks and left immediately. As we were leaving she called for us, and only then explained to us the pricings, which were steep, as expected. Thanked her and left as the main point of visiting the spa was only to see how it was inside and to check the pricings.
After much touring, we stopped by at Zen Wellness, which had a couple of masseuses sitting outside, a mix of milfs and syts, one of the few massage parlours along Nagoya Hill area for a 1.5hr Indo + Thai massage at 268k after a 10% discount. Offered a HJ at 400k, but after some negotiations, the masseuse named Lina (probably in her early 30s) agreed to go down to 250k. Took a little too long to cum like about 20 mins
it was a huge load tho hehe. The massage however, was average maybe a 6/10, had bony fingers and hence not much strength in them.
Damage: 518k (felt that I overspent a little too much here)
Proceeded to the hyper mart at the shopping mall to get some groceries, spending about 20k after splitting with 3 other buddies then back to hotel for some rest. Night comes, we head out for some dinner at Winsor Food Court, had some seafood and satay, coming up to 300k total. We had a driver working at the hotel who was asked to drive us around by the owner of the hotel who was a Singaporean Chinese named Ah Hwa whom we talked to when we told him our plans for the night. He also claims to own Winsor Food Court.
After our dinner, we headed to Kampung Bulai (pronounced as "Bo-leh") for some clubbing, (location as recommended by Ah Hwa) Entered this club named "Foreplay Club" after touring the area, most were pubs. There was no entrance fee just that we had to buy a drink to club there. Spent a total of 100k on drinks. A pretty good club, that had live performance and then some edm music mixed by a local DJ which I very much enjoyed.
Oh yes, before heading into the club we came across blue moon massage and entered to check for the pricings. A massage there costs 150k (not too sure about the timings cuz I've pretty much forgotten them). The lady said that they were full, in terms of booking and massage, a little stunned to hear that considering that it was a Monday and not on a weekend. The time was about 10:30 local time.
Went back to the hotel at about 2am to end off day 1.
Strongly appreciate any tips from the fellow samsters here so that I can learn from my shortcomings in order to have a better trip in the future
