Mohyeldin ElKhouly

Very friendly, courteous and professional. Every therapist I have had treatment with has been wonderful and has helped me in my recovery. A truly awesome team! Thanks Leelawadee and thanks Crystal

TAYLOR HILL

Best massage I’ve ever had, did 90 mins and could’ve gone for more.

Simon Kaulius

Excellent massage! Nice strong and deep massage. It's a Thai massage so they use lots of oil and they walk on your back. It's amazing at getting all the knots out of your joints, leaving you feeling nice and loose and relaxed. Great prices too! Costs approximately a dollar per minute. No appointment needed, no sign up, no registration needed. Just call a few minutes ahead to make sure they have room for you, then just show up and immediately get massaged. Great ambience too. It's located in a beautiful mansion of a house. The do couples massages too, with you and your significant other getting massaged in the same room at the same time. I highly recommend this place.

Rob Bullock

Wow, great Thai massage with pressure exactly as I asked. Foot reflexology amazing. Affordable rates. Thank you thank you. I will be back!

Ashley Woods

Worth every penny! This was one of the best massages I’ve gotten in a long time, the deep tissue is amaaaaazing, the ill definitely come back!

Jessi Johnson

Jane and Sky were amazing! My girlfriend and I had a great experience with an authentic thai experience. 5-stars!!!!

Ibrahim Ismail

Pretty decent

Aom Smith

I’m Thai and like Thai traditional massage and I would say here is the place to get authentic Thai massage as it is mainly done by professional Thai masseuses. My lovely masseuse called Lela and another lady called Cici who did oil massage to my husband are doing great job. Highly recommended if you’re here in Vancouver ????????

Bryce Sly

Excellent massage and a good experience overall. There was a little scheduling mix up, but the massage was so good I’ll leave this review at 5 stars. I will definitely go back soon!

Derek Brigham

For the price, service and atmosphere, this place can't be beat ($70 tax included for a 1h massage). It takes me back to my days of massages in Thailand. The ambiance may not be for everyone as the walls are thin and space is limited -- the sound of a toilet flushing or taps running can be bothersome for certain people, but for me, the massage experience kept me at peace.

Michael H

Just had a traditional Thai massage for the first time. Best massage ever. Very friendly staff. Clean and relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be going back. Thank you!

Rishi

Awesome professional masseuse.

Michael Caditz

Great Thai and mixed Thai Swedish

Shone “bchawk”

Excellent Thai massage. Thank you Kala!

Kyle Duske

I have been coming here for over 3 years and am always satisfied. The prices are reasonable and the therapists are skilled. It is important to find the right therapist for you. I personally like deep tissue and assisted stretching.

Matt Jackman Wong

Good spa spot if you are looking for an affordable Thai massage for around $60 for an hour. Based on the location, it was a bit harder to find as it was one of those house/businesses in that area. It’s located near the Sheraton. Make sure to bring cash.

David Waterhouse

Great place very friendly

Adam Stevens

Best thai massage I’ve ever had. 11/10 would recommend to anyone else. Sky had such a good mix of traditional thai massage and deep tissue and is very very very good at what she does. Definitely will come back again!

Stunt Fighter Vancity Entertainment Corp

I’ve been seeing Sky for a few years now and she’s fixed my back as I have a very physical job. She’s amazing and would highly recommend her. Place is very clean.

Lee KS

Good service with detail care. They seem to work hard with professional expertise. Clean amenities were impressive and kind attitude makes the massage experience personal. I got pains of Achilles heel due to hard work in Gym and had a great relief thanks to professional message. Thanks!

Anthony Pardon

Blissful traditional Thai massage after 10 strenuous days skiing. Aching body now feeling a whole lot better. Ask for Skye. She knows how to work out those tired muscles.

P G

Best massage ever. We went in for a couples massage and let me tell you hunni, Kala and Lela were the freaking best. Omg if I lived in Canada I would see them weekly????????????

Nikhil Wadhawan

Just one word “amazing” The therapist “Jira” knew the human musclar structure and i have never had such an amazing deep tissue massage with stretches ????????????????????

ulysses886

Been a returning customer. Today we have the best experience in history. Me and my girlfriend did a 90 minute deep tissue massage. Both masseuse gave us the best pressure on our necks and back. We are very satisfied, definitely coming back.

Devon Urwin

The best Traditional Thai Massage and Deep tissue oil massage in the city hands down Crystal isn't there anymore but the 1 Thai Girl and The Latina girl gave a top notch massage to me and my lady it was epic I have been here about 6 times so far and I've never been disappointed!

Jeremy Cairns

My wife and I did a couple's massage and it was excellent. Very well priced in a comfortable, clean and friendly atmosphere. They don't use the traditional mat-style Thai massage, instead they use massage tables, but still provide a wonderful blend of Thai and oil massage. My wife and I are tall people (over six foot) and the therapists worked very well with us. We are definitely going back and it's priced so that I can make this a regular part of stress reduction efforts.

Alicia Tremayne

It was an amazing massage, but light on the overall experience

Kyle Houldsworth

Amazing - must visit, best thai massage!

Phil Northcott

Strictly Legit massage. Friendly, well-trained staff who provide excellent massage and stretching. Hurts though!

Chloe Barcelon

Honestly the best Thai massage I've had here in Vancouver! I wanted a session that will alleviate my upper back pain and Annie did an amazing job. She knew which areas needed the most attention and she did her best to make sure I came out of the room in a better state! Highly recommend!!

amrit grewal

EXCELLENT body Massage, It was worth it. I am coming back again……….AND AGAIN.

Angela Wen

These ladies are wonderful - thorough and hospitable and a great deep massage at a very reasonable price.

Christopher Lalande

Lela is a fantastic therapist, and her professional massage skills are better than any authentic massage I had while visiting Thailand several dozen times, including at Wat Po. The spa is centrally-located, and very clean. Give Lela and her colleagues a call and make an appointment. Highly recommended.

g w

This place is awesome it's like an hour and a half massage for $100 the girls who work there are very nice everyone's really friendly it's clean and professional I love this place

Jessica “Jessi” Moore

Crystal is the most amazing ever. She is caring and conscientious. Every movement is with purpose and that purpose is to make you feel better. #bebetter I highly recommend visiting here.

Ted Schumacher

Jira and Leila gave us a great couples massage that really helped our backs and necks. They were professional and excellent with a great price for the 90 minute experience. Would highly recommend them!

Aura-Lou Echon

I went in for a couples massage with my boyfriend. My therapist was great - seemed like a true expert. The therapist my boyfriend received, however, was disappointing. She was inconsistent throughout the massage, didn't apply the right pressure despite being told, and overall seemed like she didn't know what she was doing. Was it worth the visit? For me, yes. For my boyfriend, absolutely not.

Robert Okabe

Great staff and service. Convenient hours.

Albert Chen

If you are expecting western massage, ur in the wrong place. Excellent service and Home environment.

Rahul Narlely

????????

Lee-Anne Coleman

Lovely Massage. Just completed 30 hours of airports and plane travel, was just what was needed to get the knots and aches out. Clean and very friendly.

David McCrea

Wonderful experience one of best Thai massages I’ve had

Mike Owens Johnson

When you tried a massage parlour for a first time, it's always the same question you really don't know if you will meet someone whith real skills, able to heal you. Especially when you do a lot of sport ( 6 time per week ) But if you meet Joana, you will quickly understand how she can help you. She is listening, she is easy going, always a wonderful smile and a warm welcome. It's pretty simple when I go for a massage I can really disconnect of my stressful style life. Actually in terms of skills she is amazing ! I teared my left harmstring for the third time, and it's a very tricky injury, but when I came she was pretty confident, calm,serene, she treat you such as a physioterapist not only like a masseuse so I decided to quit my medical treatment to follow the reeducation of Joana. And it's was wonderfull, she healed me, she make me feel good. I'll keep going to see Joana at least one time per week to preven any kind of injury and it's work pretty well. Right now she heal me my shoulder, sore since 7 years and she keep going with the same talent and efficiency. So I just want to say her , thank you a lot. She is a really part of my balance healthy life and I appreciate her personality and her skills. If you have any injury, if you need to disconnect of your stressful habits don't hesitate ask about Joana !

Brenda Ton

I get Thai massages regularly from a few different spots, but I've never had a massage that comes close to what Kala gave me. It was the best massage I've ever had - very thorough in her technique. She focused on massaging my tendons to warm me up and educated me along the way so I could understand what she was doing and why, and then she walked on my back and we did some stretches at the end. Kala made me feel very relaxed and most importantly, my entire body felt relaxed, wobbly and beat up in the most amazing way. I highly recommend atleast a 90 minute session with Kala. You'll leave 100% satisfied, wanting more.

Justin Lee

Friendly service to begin with and pleasant experience. My girlfriend and I got a room together and enjoyed a much overdue massage. For $70/hr, it's a very reasonably priced thai massage. Don't go into this massage thinking it'll be relaxing, you will definitely be squirming on the table from the good pain. I never knew my calves were that tight until my masseuse hit the spots. Just remember to breath when in pain

Carmen X

Went for a massage after work today and was very very tense in my shoulders. Annie was professional and worked with my comfort availability- very communicative and kind. I will be back! Highly recommended ????????????

Avi Verma

I tried the same spa in abbotsford. Loved it. Best massage ever by jenny the thai masseuse...

kee

very kind staff, reasonable prices and amazing massage ☺️

Arlene

Worst massage we've ever experienced! Not a relaxing place we almost wanted to stop in a middle of our massage, they are not professional. Instead of feeling relax my husband and I felt more stressful because they seems doesn't really know how to do the proper massage. The moment we arrived I already wanted to leave the place because it so smelly! Our masseuses are also talking on their language while doing massage. She left me 10mins without saying a single word. came back and then after 20mins she was in the washroom for about 5mins making loud noise with the water but didn't extend so basically my massage is short 15mins.

Poul Madore

Such a great place to get couple massages, second time going for massages. Definitely will have to make sure to go Leelawadee on a monthly basis. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a great massage to check this place out if your in the area.

Mike Auer

Kelly's massage is best of my life. I am a dance teacher, and my back it hurts a lot every day. 1 oil massage and my all body its so much better, and second massage after all muscle is good, no pain and grip. Thanks a lot!!!

Meyna G

Best massage I have had in a long time my bf and I went for a 90 min. She combines Thai with Swedish massage techniques and both Karla and my girl (forgot her name) were amazing so sweet and asked me what I preferred in pressure and throughout the massage asked me how I was feeling. I honestly think if your going to get a massage anywhere in Van city this is the #1 spot!

Mira& Company

First Thai message , Anne did an amazing job 10/10 cracked my back several times i felt real relief after leaving this spa ! great experience i will be coming back !

David W

Friendly professional and adaptive to schedules they are great I would recommend to anyone

Audrey K Krako

Got a classic 1hr thai massage which exceeded my expectations. The therapists are really nice and are very professional. Probably the best massage I ever had so far!

AJR

I had some of the best Traditional Thai massages here with Leila.

Antoine Royer

Good massage.

Dartagnan Atreyu

Visited this when I was on vacation in Vancouver. Its a small place, felt a little cramped, but the massage table is comfortable and the masseuse is skilled. I think I fell asleep for a small amount of time.

C P

Shady business - all male clients, and my "therapist" did not know what she was doing. I've been getting massages for years and never had this kind of experience. I had to tell her where to press...and I never do that. I cut down my time …

Holly Branigan

Kala was exceptional! My boyfriend and I went and definitely needed a good fix. Kala used her magic hands and transformed his back and had him walking out in perfect shape! She was patient and had the best sense of humor and really listened to the body. Highly recommend Kala!! Can't wait to go back again.

Ralph Barolo

Great massage and open late so its convenient going after work

Yuan Amy

I reserved and came on time. The woman kept me waiting outside for 20 minutes while it was raining hard. She told me that she served her first customer and then it was my turn. If you wanna make it in order, why not making my appointment 20 minutes later? Why not you open the door and let me sit in first while it was raining hard outside? Your first customer is your customer, then your second customer is not your customer. What a ridiculous reason! I strongly doubt if she is legally hired to work in Canada!

Mary Colleen Witherspoon

My husband and I went here for a couples massage, and very much enjoyed it. The pressure was firm and they took care to be thorough, and responsive. The ladies were very friendly, even though there was a language barrier. My only suggestion would be to make the room warmer - I was quite cold.

Dan W

Booked for a couple massage last week earlier in the day but when we got there, the room was given to another walk-in couple. Seems very disorganized and we waited 15 mins in an opened space beside a massage table - no waiting room. Place looks cramped and not sanitized.

Jmichael Jeffords

Yaya was great at the deep tissue massage.

Arielle Morgan

The best massage my husband and I have found in Vancouver! The ladies are amazing. You don't need to book weeks in advance, and they have multiple couples rooms which is amazing!

Natalie Duong

Get the traditional Thai massage. It was fabulous. My muscles felt stretched and entire body felt loose and relaxed afterwards. Also the staff are wonderful and very friendly. Thank you Tim you were awesome! Highly recommend :)

Sean Kormos

Phenomenal Massage, the best I have ever received. Loonie was great!!I will definitely be going back anytime I'm in Vancouver

Emily Barnes

What a gem! I visit VC reguarly on business and stumbled across Leelawadee on this trip whilst walking my pup. I'm so happy I have, I will be back every time I am in VC from now on. I had a 60 min thai/oil massage with Hayley. She communicated perfectly and changed pressure when needed. The 30 min pedicure was also excellent and very thorough. The place is clean and very calming and has wonderful staff.

Linh

We were blown away and couldn't be more happy. We were staying at the Sheraton's so we decided to book this place based on the reviews and its convenient location. It was our first time doing a Thai massage (something like a cross between Chinese Tuina and Yoga) and we were very happy . The massage was very therapeutic, and the masseuse taught us about our tensions spots etc. Also very clean: I liked how they used hot towels to clean our shins and feet before touching them and again hot towels to clean off the oil from our body at the end. She was also very careful to have clean hands before touching my hair which I appreciated. Great massage and service with affordable pricing. Would recommend!

Hana Choi

Do not ever go here. UNPROFESSIONAL. Rude. Discomforting. As it was my first time ever going there, Sky bigger bone lady was massaging me. She did not even ask me “if the pressure is okay or not.” She was physically hurting me and pulling my arm all the way to the back. No one is that flexible and even though I yelled that it was hurting, she continued to pull on my arms. I was literally CRYING because it hurt a lot. All these “positive reviews” are from themselves and from people they know. This place is dirty and unsanitized on top of that. Sky literally shaved the top of my hair/head (now it’s bald) and scratched my scalp continually. She was scratching my scalp extremely hard that I am in a lot of pain. The owner is immature and rude as well. He did not genuinely apologize and they continued hanging up the phone when it was my first time making a complaint on one of his employee. Hello I have a story for you guys. Leewadee Thai Spa located in 889 Helmcken Street, Vancouver, BC. Do not ever go there as they are unprofessional and used some kind of hair removal all over my scalp that I am balding and having missing hairlines on my scalp. They didn’t even bother to apologize when I tried to make a complaint, the manager just hung up the phone on me multiple times. I am only in my 20’s and I have thick hair, no matter how many times I have bleached/dyed my hair this has never happened to me before. I even wrote them a bad google and yelp review. I wanted to share my story to notify everyone NOT to go there and that they should SERIOUSLY not be in business for the damage they have caused to myself and others. Most of their Google reviews are from people they know or paid marketers but if you check their Yelp review they only have 1 star which I checked for their Yelp review afterwards. Sky the bigger bone lady was hurting me during my massage, she pulled my arm all the way to the back and I screamed and literally my tears were coming out. She saw that my tears were coming out and still kept going at it. I’m flexible but not that flexible (no body is that flexible) and when your customer is yelling in pain you should STOP. But she kept going at it and I did notice my hair was sticky and messy right after. I don’t understand how these people are still in business and no one deserves to go through this. What she has done is very inhuman like and completely not normal. It was my FIRST time ever going there as I TRUSTED their Google reviews since the Thai Spa I went to was fully booked. Normally Thai Spa’s are good for me but this Spa is not even a Spa. It’s in a townhouse and the massage beds are right beside their kitchen. Now I have to suffer with these missing hairlines and some balding area’s on my scalp. They have no apologized nor return my money. Sent from my iPhone

Sylvie Pin Harry

Was an amazing experience. I really recommend Kelly's massage services!

msblu bfly

my partner and i did a couple's massage and yes it was meh! i had to keep on telling my masseuse to do a lighter massage so it wasn't relaxing at all (by the 3rd and 4th time she would giggle and it was annoying as heck cuz here i am a paying customer trying to communicate with you and you think its amusing). my partner's bed was also so creaky that i could hear his guy get on and off the old bed.add insult to my injury, i could hear them talking in their language which i think is unprofessional given the tone sounded like they were making fun of us!!!!. in the end, i also had to pay cash ( CASH ONLY- of course not mentioned on their website)never going back even though it was cheap( EXACTLY!!!! i should've known that there was a reason behind the cheapness)

WARNING AVOID "SKY" THE WORKER she will pick and choose her clients and well cancel or ignore ones she seems unfit.

Sarah C.

LADIES, please be mindful and always take their female staff. I had a very strange experience with one of their male staff yesterday and believe me he wanted to give me an happy ending. I never thought this would happen to me in Canada?? It was definitely the most uncomfortable experience ever and I strongly suggest to speak up when this kinda things happen. I love the owner who open this place couple of years ago but unfortunately I will never go again!

Dakota Knapp

Was a great massage! I'm a big guy and they were able to work out the huge knots

Yvonne Chen

I got a massage here and they made my hair fall out!!! I didn’t listen to their Yelp reviews although it has extremely bad reviews. Now I am losing hair and these people that work here are just laughing...I now believe that there is a …

shaajeevan thualsithasan

I had an amazing experience here. Great spa with very professional and kind staff. I would recommend to anyone looking for place to destress and relax!

Ange

Beautiful staff! The massage and stretch was great and very well priced! Thanks ladies xo

Liucija Šveikauskiene

Very good massage. We enjoyed it a lot with mu husband. Pleasant and professional service. Simple and super good. I highly Recommend

Noreen Hollman

these girls are good! first time I had a Thai massage - very thorough! worked alot of muscles ????

Jaji Paji

Got really great massages...a mix of Thai and deep tissue ...was very relaxing after a long day of biking .

laurelmommy

Pani was amazing and felt like she had magic knot finding ability. She even asked me if I had an accident with my one leg that has bothered me since giving birth 12 years ago. Mind blown! Would be there all the time if we lived in Vancouver.

Oliver Guan

Never go this place as they are unprofessional. They are literally inside a townhouse and the massage beds are next to the kitchen. They know nothing about massage but damaging your body.

Cilas Tuberlum

Really bad massage. They didn't really know how to massage. I go for massage twice per month, so I know what Thai massage is.

YAYBAMBAM Vancouver

????????

Jason Tran

If you are looking for a place that knows what they are doing. This is it! And the pricing is on point.

isabella morgan

i had a deep tissue massage and i feel so much better i finally and function and go about my day without being completely sore

Nr D

Every time I’ve gone in to get a Thai massage it’s always been amazing. All the ladies that work there especially Skye/Yaya is incredible. I recommend booking an appointment!

Jeongho Jeon

Simply the best.

Leo Trudeau

Fantastic

anthony corley

I had never had a Thai style massage before and it was amazing!!!! I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone that is sore or wants to relax. As an athlete it was amazing how they combined massage with assisted stretching to help you loosen up and leave feeling relaxed. A must go if you are in the Vancouver area!!!

Aaron

Great massage, good value and really friendly! Thanks very much!

tcraig roberts

I recently visited this spa for a massage. I was so happy I gave them a try as the whole experience was outstanding. Booking was flexible and they really made a big effort to work around my tight schedule. I was greeted warmly by their staff and was very pleased with how the spa looked and how clean it was kept. The massage itself was outstanding. The massage therapist made sure she paid special attention to the areas most in need and I felt great at the end of the session. I like a strong massage and I must say that the massage therapist was up to the task. The cost was extremely reasonable and was great value for the session. I will definitely repeat and bring my wife the next time.

Sarah Sturmbauer

Today I had on very short notice a fantastic deep tissue massage! Unfortunately I do not live in Vancouver - I need to come back!

Nitesh Guness

Excellent!

Norm M

Great proper Thai massages

-Pris- P.

I found this place by accident because the massage places I usually go to were fully booked for the weekend. The lady who massaged me was very good. She gave a medium pressure but I could hear my bones cracking here & there. I didn't get her name but she's the one from Chiang Mai and has a Canadian husband (yes, we talked a lot). I reduced 1 star for the place itself. It needs some improvement but the service is excellent.

Brent Murray

I received a Thai Massage from Sky today and it was excellent. She was very professional and found all the spots that required attention. I can’t wait to go back.
