Barcelona - Thermas - Weekend in February.

Oopsie, he’s apparently about a decade too old and, being fit and muscular, not developmentally adolescent-looking enough for some of the trolls and their $10 trade budgets. But they should be grateful he’d possibly keep his biscuits down dealing with them.

You’re oddly obsessed with other people’s ages and budgets. It’s starting to read less like commentary and more like projection... you're the troll with the Canadian budget.... ever meet anyone on the apps or do they runaway when you open your mouth?

“Eric” is truly hot. Recently I had heard from the hall and from within one of the crap cabins the extended slapping sounds of a groin against a punter’s buttocks as the recipient moaned incessantly. When he emerged I was taken with this stud’s looks. He is a nice guy too, but hard to take😏 Not to be missed. 

Yes, he is definitely a challenge to take. I managed but did have to stop him a few times. But he's very understanding and genuinely nice.

Today I went for a 30 year old Colombian guy, muscular and well hung. All guys I have met have been EUR 50 for thirty minutes..........

Excuse my stupidity and a genuine question intended here but how does one go about paying said fifty euro to the guys ( assuming you're in a towel), is it strictly cash up front i.e you already have it tucked in the wrappings of your towel somehow, or you've to go to your locker and retrieve and he waits until you come back to him, or do you both CUM and then go - to your locker afterwards to enable him collect his payment on completion of the "service" you received ?

Payment is after the event. The boy will wait in a bathroom alcove between the locker area and reception. You go to your locker retrieve the agreed fee and give it to the boy in the alcove. The guys know the rules of the game.

True. I was only trying to help.

in my recent visit, I was a bit surprised that non working guys were present on Sunday afternoon. It seems like they stayed over from the Saturday party or they had an early Sunday morning party. Do you know what it is? Is it the splash? If so, don't they get kicked out by Sunday afternoon??? 

You are right, these are the partygoers who went to the Splash party that goes on from Saturday night till Sunday morning and they decided to stay in the sauna. They do not get kicked out, no. The same thing happened when I went on a Sunday and I was very confused when a couple of super hot muscular guys were hanging around but not accepting clients. One of the working boys explained it to me. The Splash ticket includes free entry to the sauna on Sunday, so some of the party guys just stay throughout the whole of Sunday, even after the party has ended.

You always pay after the session. As for the question around cumming or not, I wrote a detailed "guide" for new clients at sauna Thermas:

You pay the entree fee, get a key with a locker number and go change. Once you are changed you go down the stairs where the working boys will be waiting or wandering around, and on the bottom most level there's a pool and bar. Some providers will approach you, some won't. If you see someone you like just say "Hey" to them and they will most likely lead the conversation.

Clearly state what you want to happen (suck their dick, have them suck you, get fucked, fuck them, kiss or not,...) and confirm these are things he offers or not (all providers have different limits and things they offer). The standard is 50 euro for one session, no matter what the activity (usually, with some exceptions noted later on), excluding the provider's ejaculation (if you want them to ejaculate, tell them as it's extra money, usually 50 euro extra). There are "strict" tops who sometimes propose to let you fuck them for double the money (so 100 instead of 50 euro for 1 session. I suggest not to do this as they are often not good at bottoming and to search for a true versatile or bottom provider).

If kissing is important to you, ask them to demonstrate to you how they kiss during the conversation. It's forward, yes, but a good kisser will happily oblige and it can save you from disappointment as I've had providers give halfhearted pecks once the session started (when I didn't ask them to show me before). 

A session lasts around 20 to 30 minutes (but you as the client should keep track. Most providers will make the session shorter if you don't). The rule of thumb is that it's 50 euro per 30 minutes. So if you were to engage a provider for one hour, it's expected you pay him 100 euro. But always confirm price and duration before starting the session. Some will (jokingly) ask for a tip beforehand, which I always politely decline. 

Once you've agreed on everything, it's time to start the session. For this you have 2 options. There are free cabins on the first basement, they have a fixed bench with thin mattresses on them. Some clients find them uncomfortable, for me they work fine. I suggest using the cabins on the left of the stairs (when facing with your back to the stairs) as these have better lighting in them and there are larger cabins. Just ask the provider to get you a larger cabin and they will look for it. Most of the time the larger cabins are in use by providers who are on break (smoking and chatting). 

You can also pay for a room. This is always by the hour and they come at various prices, depending on the size. All rooms have a full bed in them with linen and towels so the more expensive ones are simply larger. The comfort remains the same. The price list for the rooms is visible at the entry. 

After you are done with the session some providers will take a shower with you, some won't. Then you both go to the top floor (street level) where the lockers are. You then get the money from your locker. The provider will be waiting for you in the bathroom next to the entrance (you can't miss it, it will be very clear where it is) and you give them the money there. I don't know why that is the spot but it's been that spot for as long as I've gone there. 

The providers don't mind it if you have your phone with you (I use it for Google translate).

If you had a great time with a provider, I suggest you buy them a drink at the bar (if they're not otherwhise engaged with another client). I find it nice chatting to the guys and getting to know them.

I totally understand one might be nervous going for the first time, but I've found that most everyone there (from the staff to the providers) are friendly and want to help you relax because happy, relaxed clients spend more money 😉

Ideal times to go are any day between 4pm and 8pm. The busiest days (with the largest number of providers, but also the most clients) are (usually) Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, same time (4pm till 8pm). Outside these hours there will rarely be providers in the sauna.

Hotel prices really seem to have been exploding in Barcelona in the last year and a half. That together with flights getting more and more expensive, I'm less inclined to make the trip to Barcelona for sauna Thermas, even though I've had loads of fun there over the years.

Very good detailed post, I haven't been to BCN in awhile, I used to go pretty frequently and was a regular at the bar.

There are some ways to mitigate this if you are happy to stay a bit outside of Barcelona, and out of season.

For instance, there are currently around ten hotels for less than €80 per night available within five minutes of Sitges train station for a random midweek night in March.

It is just forty minutes from Sitges station to Sants Estacio station, which is 15 minutes walk from Thermas.

Spend the afternoon in Thermas and go out in the gay village in Sitges for the evening. I am sure there would be a few places open even on a midweek evening in March in the gay village.

It has been more than a decade since I last visited Barcelona.  At that time I met a lot of Eastern European guys at the sauna.  Now everyone talks about guys mainly from Latin American countries.  Are there still a number of guys from Eastern European countries going to the sauna?  If not, any suggestions on how to meet them?

Could be that - however in all the past years I saw multiple Thermas guys on Hunqz, and it's always been the case there is a 50e "quickie" Thermas rate and then (usually) the 100-120 "normal" Hunqz rate for an hour, and those guys still maintained that range between the two. 

Do you mean a “quickie” fee off site or are you merely contrasting between Thermas site and off site via ad? Sexy Brazilian “Arturo” from Pernambuco, early 30’s, is cross-affiliated in his commercial sex work, indicating €100 on Hunqz as Arthur but presents on Telechapero a half-hour charge option of €60, basically consistent with Thermas where he’ll sometimes offer throwing in a few hits of potent cannabis with high limonene content. He’s certainly as hot and fun as others in his age group advertising with much higher rates. Not that I would be inclined to go for the shortened time off site, but that option seems to be rare for escort ads; perhaps the work experience at Thermas for some of these guys makes it a natural alternative off site.

Actually, those "short-time" half-hour offers are fairly common in Spain - and I took upon them from time to time, especially I've seen instances where they don't really differ from dates on normal rates (either because short-term rates run longer, or - more often - normal rates really don't really end up in an hour spent)
