Long Time/Overnight: $121-338
Massage with extras: $39-82
These are approximate ranges as of early 2026. Prices vary by area, provider quality, and negotiation. Locals pay significantly less.
Tipping is expected — 10-20% is standard.
Best value: early evening before the rush.

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Been there 5 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.
