A pity. I too loved the old Fragata. Very fond memories.

Any updates on Clube555?

Has anyone been to the Tawan lately? If so are there many boys and what is the quality? Young, fit, attractive or otherwise?

Happy New Year to you and to all contributors to this august forum.

Don’t forget the cockroaches.

Read the TripAdvisor reviews. Some are dreadful.

This thread was started to discuss type 4 massage place, where sex was expected.

Thank you. Further thoughts/contributions welcome.

Good question. There have been a number of reviews of massage venues in posts but to a have a “list” in the one thread would be very helpful. My all time favourite venue was the old Hero. Seasoned Bangkok visitors will know what I mean. If there anything approximating to the old Hero these days?

Could you please explain what you mean here?

You need a colonoscopy by a gastroenterologist. A no brainer!

How very true! Despite what some people try to make out Brazil is very dangerous and foreigners are sitting ducks. My advice to anyone visiting Brazil is stick to the rentboy saunas which are fabulous and have a great and safe time.

I just read a Google reviews of Spot and one person suggested that the waiters could have chosen by a modeling agency.

What’s the food like at Spot?

Fares from Australia are expensive everywhere right now. Pent up demand and reduced services.

In Pattaya I have twice stayed at the Rabbit Resort. A lovely resort, nice pools, across the road from the gay beach. I’m back in January.

I stayed there once. Overall a good experience. The one thing that disappointed was the pool. A little on the small size and lounges rather cramped. Last time I was in Bangkok I stayed at the Plaza Athenee. Location not ideal but excellent service, a magnificent breakfast spread and a huge lagoon sized swimming pool, one of the biggest if not the biggest in Bangkok. I’m staying there again in January.

Brings back memories of my first visit to the Brazil rent boy saunas.

Those hideous tattoos. A tragedy.

Make sure head rules heart. I don’t want to be negative but the internet is full of stories of westerners who have been duped. I know a few from my own circle of acquaintances.

I was of those asking about Arena. I think I’ll give it a miss.

I’m sure most of the massage guys are straight. I recall some years ago a massage venue in Pattaya where the boys’ lockers were in the same room as customers. I couldn’t help but notice that they nearly all had photos of naked girls on the inside door of their lockers. They however gave happy endings to their gay customers.

How dull. Doesn’t sound like much fun.

This forum at its best. Excellent information cheerfully provided. Hats off to all contributors!

This is exactly the information I have been looking for! Clear, concise and comprehensive! The pleasant surprise is the current array of talent at the Tawan. Back to old times?
