    I think it depends on who you get, but my partner and I both had some of the worst massages we'd had in a long time. They were amateur and painful. Long are the days when this was a top rated massage - that's the last time I'll be visiting this establishment.

    Tammy and the girls always make me feel very welcome and always give the best massages. The space is very clean and well presented, and all staff are always very professional and take every care to ensure you have the nicest experience. I have recommended Thantara to many people and always hear positive feedback when they go.

    I have been going here since it opened. Been quite a while since my last visit when I was in the area today and decided to go. They remembered what kind of massage I like, pressure and everything. Shows the dedication they have to the craft. Haven’t found a massage place in all of Sydney that compares to the girls here. Keep up the good work.

    This is my regular masseuse. The place is very well presented best I've been too it feels very clean! The staff are friendly and kind. The Thai massage is amazing and I enjoy the hot stone ones too. I wish I can stay and get a massage here for ever. My favourite in Sydney.

    I have a sore problem with my nape of the neck. Had the opportunity to go to receive massage therapy at Thantara. The condition is much better. The massotherapist is knowledgeable in physiotherapy assures me that my symptoms will go away soon. Most importantly, the massotherapist has a good attitude, the place is clean, I recommend you to go here and you will feel like me.

    Kwang gave a magical deep tissue massage with hot rocks as well. She is highly skilled and has a gift finding those tight knots that need special attention. Thanks so much Kwang & Thantra!!

    This place has gone downhill dramatically! Thantara actually use to be pretty good a few years ago and figured I'll revisit as I was in Marrickville although my last two visits were ridiculously bad, actually terrible and can't believe the service that was received especially on my last visit I can honestly say it was the worst Thai massage I've had in my lifetime and I get a massage every fortnight. Had to wait passed our appointment time, my masseuse was just spreading oil! Did ask about pressure or location points. I genuinely believe the new people working there have never actually had training as my nine year old son could have given me a better massage. Will never be coming back to Thantara and will definitely inform others about my experience.

    One of the best massage experience I ever had in my life! I have been to a lot of massage places and this place definitely tops them all. I had the 60 minutes remedial massage and I was so devastated when our session has finished. It was very relaxing! Definitely would recommend them.

  • 5/5 Priya L. 5 months ago on Google
    Had an aromatherapy massage today and it was truly relaxing! I’ve been to a lot of massage places but keep coming back here as the place is clean, we’ll maintained and really great staff.

  • 4/5 Jinnie p. 5 years ago on Google
    Massage room was clean and quiet. Staff was very friendly and kind. Also massage was good and relaxing. Not too soft, not too hard. But the price was different from what I saw in web site. And they didn’t know about my online reservation so if you wanna make a reservation you better call them straight.

    My go to local massage place. Really skilled therapists and consistent massages. Special call out to Gin who takes great care to work through all the knots and problem areas

  • 5/5 Rachel O. 7 months ago on Google
    Amazing Remedial massage! The girls are nice, the place is clean and neat. I recommend and will definitely come back.

  • 2/5 Jennifer V. 7 months ago on Google
    The staff was super nice and accommodated my sister and I pretty last minute (we got the 2.5 hour long package "Total Bliss" for $259 AUS each person), which we were so grateful for! However, I would not recommend it. First, there is no footbath prior to entering the spa area which we found unusual for a Thai massage business. The majority of the time was spent doing a body scrub of just the legs & arms and wiping off the scrub with cold water which then meant laying in cold wet sheets for well over an hour. Also, the exfoliating scrub followed by the wet washcloth to remove the scrub was the slowest & faintest pressure possibly imagined... My sister and I truly hated that whole part of the treatment, it felt truly pointless as it didn't feel good, no pressure to properly exfoliate the skin, and laying there cold & wet. Also, we both requested medium to firm pressure prior to starting the treatment and reminded them again during. I will say, once the exfoliating was done, it was the massage part which was actually decent but a pretty short amount of time probably ~30 minutes for the whole body. The facial portion was also strange as all these things are being put on your face with no explanation of what it is/benefit and not being asked about our skin. Also, the facial was a lot of veryyy slowly putting stuff on my face and very slowly taking it off. Last part was the head and shoulder massage, this part had a decent amount of pressure like a normal massage but unfortunately it only lasted like 2 minutes total. One of the best parts was when all of the treatments were over because once we got our clothes back on and walked out of our rooms, we saw several cut up strawberries, chocolate balls, almonds, and puff crackers on a dinner plate along with some tea and water for us. That was really delicious and nice to walk out to!

    I was lucky enough to get in for a last minute appointment. One of the BEST thai massages I've had. Spotless and amazing attention to detail. Will def be back!

  • 5/5 Jenny L. 7 months ago on Google
    Oh my lord, this is probably the best massage I’ve had in Australia over the last 7 years. Jin is an absolute professional - very powerful and super sweet. The place is clean, tidy and modern - worth every single buck. Would definitely be back every Sunday!

  • 5/5 Vanessa L. 9 months ago on Google
    Did the remedial massage and Tara really went in and got my knots out - friendly service and great massage

  • 5/5 Winda L. 5 months ago on Google
    Been there twice and so far the experience has been good & I'd love to come back again! Lately hard to find the right massage place. Glad I found this place.

  • 5/5 Susane A. 10 months ago on Google
    The remedial massage is heaven, I floated out of there feeling so happy. Every knot and ache was massaged out, she focused on so many different spots. It’s my 2nd time there and im so grateful I found this place.

  • 5/5 Carrin S. 4 months ago on Google
    As a person who struggles to find a firm massage with the right technique, I can highly recommend seeing Nana. She is an incredible masseuse and has excellent firm technique to really get the knots out.

  • 5/5 aley b. 10 months ago on Google
    Had the most amazing experience with Bam - she was so attentive and did such a good job of my remedial massage. I like a lot of pressure and boy did she deliver! The rooms were so clean and relaxing and the tea at the end was so nice. Definitely will be coming back here again. Thanks for an awesome experience Bam!

  • 5/5 Rod G. 1 year ago on Google
    I have health spas in New Zealand. I rated Thantara a 5 ☆ as for me it's the quality of the massage therapy that counts. Well done Thantara your therapists are first class.

  • 5/5 Harshita B. 1 year ago on Google
    Relaxing and comfortable environment, the room we had our massage was tranquil and clean. Massage felt great too, not too strong or too light. Felt relaxed during and after the massage 💆‍♀️

  • 5/5 Andreia de S. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a massage here today and it was excellent my therapist was Irene and I highly recommend her will definitely be going back .

  • 5/5 Jarrod H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great massage. I haven’t felt this good in a long time. The focus on my upper back has released a lot of tension and reduced the headaches I have been suffering from.

  • 5/5 dejana m. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is just amazing The team are super professional, the rooms are extremely clean and tranquil I’ve never had a bad or less than spectacular massage - Pauline is just the best!

  • 1/5 Anne C. 1 year ago on Google
    This was unprofessional and useless. The masseuse was unable to understand what I said and her treatment was all over the place, too soft, not therapeutic at all, and she left the room twice , one time 5 minutes, the next ten and the third time, I walked out.

  • 4/5 Fa H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great massage. Lovely therapist and clean space. Therapist listened to where I was feeling pain and adapted the therapy to my needs. Will defiantly go again.

  • 5/5 Rafia S. 1 year ago on Google
    The very first thing I would like to comment on is the professional yet friendly customer service. The place was so peaceful and clean! Needless to say the massage was the best hour of my day. I couldn't thank you enough :D

  • 5/5 Lorren N. 2 years ago on Google
    Clean, calm and very professional. My partner and myself had a 60min Hot Stone massage. Very safe and relaxing environment. 10/10 would recommend and I can’t wait to come back! Thank you for everything

  • 5/5 Rob H. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful premises and a bit of an oasis on a humble strip in Marrickville - much more luxurious inside than expected. Staff are all warm and very friendly. Massage was great in a couples room. Prices also very reasonable. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Alison L. 2 years ago on Google
    I have been having regular massages 2-3 per month with the owner of this business for over a year now. She truly has healing hands! She saved me before Christmas as my back was in spasm and in one hour she fixed me up. This centre is so peaceful, clean, covvid safe and is a real sanctuary when you're feeling stressed or in pain. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Craig F. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice shop, very clean and a quiet and comforting environment. Second time visiting and had a deep tissue massage with Ben, who managed to remove some serious blockages in my forearm from an injury. Very relaxed and pain free after. Will certainly be a regular now.

  • 5/5 mana c. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this place. I don't go as often as I would like but when I do, I absolutely fall in love with it all over again. Very peaceful and clean. Everyone is so professional and friendly. I see Tammy and I could not recommend her enough. She is very attentive, perceptive and caring. She makes me feel like she deeply cares for me to feel better once I walk out. Hope to be back again soon
