    I was very excited to enjoy a massage on my vacation and Blue Massage had such high rating I was confident that I had chosen the right place. I was wrong... I made my appointment online for a 60 minute deep tissue massage and paid 795 pesos (750 + 45 convenience fee). I arrived 5 minutes before my massage and proceeded to wait almost 30 minutes for my massage therapist to arrive. When I arrived there were 4 people were there haggling with the woman upfront for a discounted rate on a massage and with very little effort they were given a 20% discount. I was told that, because of my wait they would add 10 extra minutes to my massage, but it's a bit insulting to pay full price and then watch as someone else is given a discount in front of you. After waiting, I was finally led to a small room where I undressed and got under the cover on the table. The woman began the massage and it was evident very quickly that she did not know how to give a deep tissue massage. After about 10 minutes I was convinced that she didn't know how to give a regular massage. 20 minutes in and I started wondering if this was the first massage she had ever given. She bounced rapidly from my back to my arms to my neck to my hands to my back and then my head. Stopping occasionally to poke at what I assume she thought were pressure points (spoiler alert, they were not). Then she would scratch/massage the back of my head (like I scalp massage when getting your hair washed at a salon) it wasn't unpleasant but it was totally unnecessary. She moved to my legs where, again there was no actual massage. She just would rub up and down my leg and then go back to my arms or upper back. Then to my feet where she gently pulled on each toe and kind of massaged my heel. When she finished the second leg I informed her that I was done. She was shocked and I felt bad but I had 30 minutes left and there was nothing more she could do. I tipped her 100 pesos as I was leaving because I felt bad and didn't want to be insulting. The woman at the front desk was kind and offered me a gift certificate to come back but I refused because I'm not convinced they hire qualified people and didn't want to waste more time finding out. I might be an outlier because so many of the reviews were are so good, but I've had many massages around the world and this was by far the worst I've ever had. *Assuming someone in management reads this, I'd offer this advice... Have the therapist turn on some soft music in the room during the massage. Also, the towel my face was pressed into had a mild scent of mildew which did not add to the experience.

    I don’t use the word Awful a lot but that’s the only way I can describe my massage this past Wednesday night. I went to Blue Massage in the romantic zone after having a couple of great experiences in the past. I believe my therapist’s name was Joe and while he was extremely nice he gave me the absolute worst massage I’ve ever had. He asked if I had any spots to focus on and I advised shoulders and back. I appreciated that but once the massage started it went down hill. He focused on one spot of my body for what seemed like the majority of the time. The oil was freezing cold. While I like a strong pressure his was almost unbearable for me. And the sheets when he rubbed them against my body was almost like sandpaper. I generally doze off during massages…DID NOT happen this time. There were points were the pressure was fine and the massage felt okay but those were few and far between. I actually found myself wanting the massage to be over and that’s never a good thing. I will say that the woman at the front desk was nice as well as my therapist, he just needs a ton of improvement on his technique. I did tip the therapist because he did spend an hour doing something akin to a massage but this was definitely not money well spent.

    The experience at Blue is exceptional! No random dudes outside catcalling you, inside is well decorated, clean, air conditioned and smells nice. Greeted with excellent customer service and led to a private room which again was clean and smelled nice with some added aromatherapy. I requested a deep tissue massage - as hard as possible - and my masseuse did not disappoint! This was the definitely the deepest most comprehensive massage I’ve ever received and stumbled out with a “massage drunk”. Prices can’t be beat for the service you receive!! Would go again.

    I had the opportunity to check out Blue Massage. Prior to moving here 6 months ago. I had visited PV 5 times last year an each visit I would get at least 2 massages from different places. I decided to get the Blue Package which included 1 hr massage, 30 minutes body treatment ( body scrub) and 30 minute facial, At first I was wondering what type of place this was since you went up these stairs, When I walked in I was surprised on how clean and professional it was. I had Jonathan , He took me to the room and it was very clean and organized, First he gave me the massage, he would use different pressure at times. then the body treatment which he used coffee. after 30 minutes of scrubbing my body I took a shower then had the facial. I've had many massages in Puerta Vallarta and can honestly say that this massage was 1 of the best I've had here. I highly recommend Blue Massage and ask for Jonathan. I will definitely be back.

    I came a few months ago and had an amazing foot massage. I returned recently with my mom and assumed all the therapists would be the same but we were both disappointed by the two lady therapists that we got. I mentioned it to the receptionist at the end but she didn't seem to care or want to do anything about it. I found out that my awesome experience was with Jonathan and she just told me to book with him next time - no compensation for our poor experience that day. I was very disappointed because I brought my mom and really wanted her to have the amazing experience that I had. The receptionist could improve on her attitude as well. If you're not going to provide exceptional customer experience, why are you working there?

    I scheduled a one hour deep tissue massage and it was probably one of the best that I've had in a long while. Lestor was my therapist and he was quite good in working me over without it being painful and relieved a chronic muscle cramp in one of my quads. If you are looking for a high end resort spa-like massage experience, this isn't it. The facilities are simple and adequate. What I especially appreciated was the availability of a shower with towel adjacent to the room which I used both before and after the massage.

    Review for Blue massage, the location next to Andaley's on Olas Alta: Professional, clean and friendly! I've been looking for exactly those qualities in a massage establishment in Amapas. Blue massage checks every box! The staff that greeted me were not only very friendly, but they asked me careful questions to help and guide the masseuse for my 90 minute deep tissue massage. The masseuse was outstanding. Very careful and checked in with me to monitor his degree of pressure. I left feeling a bit sore, but extremely relaxed, stretched and loosened. Exactly what I wanted! I'll definitely be back to Blue massage! Everybody coming to Puerto Vallarta should consider getting a massage to relax those tired muscles, and they are a quarter of the price of those in the states. Blue Massage is a very fair price, and with a perfectly situated spot in Amapas, outstanding, professional masseuses, and kind and helpful staff; this place is an A+!

    Every time I visit Puerto Vallarta I make sure to get a massage from Lester - he's absolutely incredible. As someone who has had countless massages, I can say with confidence that he's hands down the best masseuse I have ever had the pleasure of working with. As a boxer, I need a lot of bodywork to keep my muscles in top shape, and Lester did an amazing job of getting the knots out and helping me feel relaxed and rejuvenated. He clearly has a deep understanding of the human body and how to work with it in a way that is both therapeutic and relaxing. From the moment I arrived, he made me feel completely at ease. Throughout the massage, he checked in with me to make sure the pressure was just right and that I was comfortable. You can tell that he's truly engaged in the work and committed to doing a great job. Overall, I cannot recommend Lester highly enough. If you're looking for an exceptional massage experience, look no further.

    My mother and I were looking for a Massage place Puerto Vallarta and came across Blue Massage. By far the best massage I have ever had. This place was very clean and we both booked the Blue Package which included a one hour massage, half hour body scrub (shower afterwards) and half hour facial. We had Lester and Eden and this was by far the Best Massage we have ever had. The very next day we both booked another 90 minute massage before we flew back to Texas! Eden and Lester were kind and very knowledgeable in their techniques and Eden was able to work on all the knots in my neck and shoulders. Hands down the best Massage place in town! 👍👍 Also thank you Malia at the front desk to arranging all this for us! ❤️😇

    We booked online for a 2 person pedicure which is perfect for paying by credit card and booking a time. We showed up 5 minutes early to allow for any questions or concerns and were brought straight in and had a seat. It was my partners first time getting a pedicure so I hoped they'd do an amazing job so we could come back again and again. After 25 minutes Letti was done with him and left him waiting for me while Edgar did an amazing job. He left feeling dissapointed and doesn't ever want to do it again cause it wasn't a good experience.

    Ok so this was in the top 5 massages I've ever had, the facility looks kind of plain, and the rates compared to other places aren't too cheap. That being said, the massage itself was stupid good. The masseurs were very respectful and knew what they were doing. The guy I was with said that he's never got a massage from a guy that did it as well as them and that he almost fell asleep during the process (me too). This is incredible if you take into account he had a sever bout of Montezuma's revenge the day before. We got the 2 h massage and facial. We both agreed that the masseuse's were.... Well ... Attractive also but might I add very professional

    I have had many massages in Puerto Vallarta, three of them here at Blue Massage. The three at blue massage were by far the best. All the styles were different but each was amazing in their own way. Eden gave me the best massage I have ever had and Alejandro was able to find and work out knots I didn’t even know I had. The receptionist Malia (I think that is her name) is THE BEST, extremely professional, kind, and attentive. Don’t go anywhere else, as you will be wasting your money.

    After seeing all of the great reviews, I have decided to make an appointment. Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to what others described. The massage was ok - it wasn’t great but was not terrible either. I selected deep tissue - it felt more like a soothing Swedish massage instead. The pressure was gentle instead of firm. There was no real intake process: masseur did not ask me whether there was a particular area I wanted him to spend more time on or what my preference was in terms of the pressure. The atmosphere is basic - it was clean but not a spa like environment. Overall, I say it was just an alright experience, not spectacular as other reviews suggest.

    I booked a 90 minute deep tissue massage. In the 90 minutes the 'masseur' never got around to the front of my legs. NO QUADS? 90 minutes? And he didn't go very deep at all though I asked him to. Barely worked on hamstrings. I hate writing this but I left very disappointed and surprised. He did do a good job on shoulders.

    I don’t remember his name, but one of the best massages I’ve ever had. All the things you want from a relaxing massage, but for lack of a better word in English…it was loving…like family. It may not look like the fancy spa places, but the sheets were crispy-clean. Loved it!

    I went for the hot stone massage. So many things wrong with this service from Raul. First, he kept touching my lips with his fingers when he asked me to inhale the essential oils. Then, his movements were so quick and jerky that I felt like I was just being mashed around, not massaged. There was no evidence of any technique at all. I just kept repeating in my mind, there is no such thing as a bad massage. No such thing as a bad massage. I went here because Metamorphis was closed on Sundays. Never again

    Geraldo has the hands of an angel! I just had an hour deep tissue massage and it was everything I was looking for! I feel very relaxed and taken care of. One of the best massages I have gotten. I almost fell asleep. Highly recommend this place

    The first time we went we had great massages. The second time we made appointments and when we showed up the doors were locked and they wouldn't respond to phone calls or texts. Sad

  • 5/5 Renee O. 4 months ago on Google
    Gerardo is magnificent. I went for a deep tissue couples massage for my husband’s birthday. Since he wanted a female therapist, I worked with Gerardo. I left feeling like it was my birthday. I’m convinced that Gerardo’s hands were touched by God and meant to heal. Since childhood, I’ve experienced pain from tension in my upper middle back, close to my scapula. After over a dozen massages, I’ve never experienced anything like Gerardo’s touch. Without my saying it, his hands found my tension and focused there. His approach was powerful but gentle. Gerardo used his arm and body to apply pressure, stretch my arm and back, and get under my scapula. It was so good that I stopped the massage to tell him “sus manos son mágicos” (your hands are magical), and asked him to focus on my back instead of moving on to my legs or turning me over. The massage was deep but painless. Still, I expected to feel some pain and soreness the next day. I felt nothing but relief. If I’m back in PVR, I will definitely be back to see Gerardo. And if he ever comes to practice in the NYC area, I will be his first client. For reference, the physical venue is no frills, but that was alright since we were just looking for good massages in a clean environment. The team was excellent, patient, and accommodating.

    Lester is an absolute professional and gives the most life-changing deep tissue massage I have ever experienced. Highly recommend if you want to get painful areas worked out. The spa is clean and well lit. There are some stairs to walk up but no worse then everywhere else in PV. I wish I could bottle him up and take him home.

  • 5/5 Brad M S. 1 year ago on Google
    The Blue Massage is incredible. The masseurs are incredible (especially Lester and Alex but all are the best in PV) The staff is incredible. I can only recommend a place but so much but if you don't get The Blue Massage when in PV you're missing out in a healing experience. If you don't like it, you're not alive.

  • 5/5 Kevin f. 1 year ago on Google
    Found this place after checking reviews. Saw the 4 hand massage and had to try it. Was not disappointed. My two therapists did a wonderful job and were very professional. The atmosphere was relaxing and the massage just made me melt into the table

  • 5/5 Farhan M. 11 months ago on Google
    We went in for couples massage with Jeraldo and Jonathon. Both of them had great technique and we probably had one the best massages ever. We felt so great after that we booked again for the next day. One of our best memories of our stay in Puerto Vallarta. Will definitely visit again when we return!

  • 1/5 namaste272 1 year ago on Google
    Do NOT recommend. Booked after reading so many good reviews but uncertain why there are so many reviews. Limited communication. Never asked me about my particular areas to focus on. Just felt like I was lathered down in lotion every few minutes. Massage technique was lots of quick fast pressure but no working clearly tight knots and for some reason, she kept scratching my head rather than a scalp myself. She wasn’t gentle with adjusting placement of arms or legs. Not a good massage or a relaxing experience.

  • 5/5 Travis S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow! I’ve had a ton of massages, and this was my favorite massage out of them all. If you like firm pressure, ask for Lester to do a deep tissue massage. Add on the facial, it’s sooo worth it. Clean, professional, excellent prices, and friendly welcoming vibes from all the staff.

  • 5/5 Jessica Drake (. 1 year ago on Google
    Hands down, the best massage I've ever had. It was difficult to find a place that was open on Sunday where you can get a masseur and not a masseuse, but Blue Massage provided both. I ended up getting massaged by Eden and the experience was so amazing I went back several more times. I experienced both a Swedish and deep tissue massage. I highly recommend this place!

  • 5/5 Rachel W. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible massage. My husband and I both got the blue package (90 min massage, full body scrub and facial) worth every penny and so much more. Our therapists were highly professional and left us feeling relaxed and the facial after a hot shower to rinse off the salt scrub was absolutely perfect. Literally could not have asked for anything better. Thank you blue massage team! Do yourself a favor and book yourself in here even if you’re only in PV for a day.

  • 5/5 jessica a. 1 year ago on Google
    This massage changed my life! Raul is the most skilled and talented therapist I have had in years. He is a healer who understands how the body works and how to release tension. I would have paid 3 times what they charged and still been grateful because the quality is so good. Do not miss out on this place!

  • 5/5 Stephanie W. 1 year ago on Google
    Came to Puerto Vallarta for a birthday trip from Colorado…everyone at Blue Massage was FANTASTIC!! I have been to so many massage spas, and Blue Massage topped all!

  • 5/5 Thomas B. 1 year ago on Google
    Walked in, been having bad lower back pain for over a week. Ruptured disc doesn't help. I got a one hour four hand with Nena and Rosi. Myra runs the front desk and is extremely accommodating for a walk in. Nena and Rosi were telly fantastic, very professional and almost choreographed. I have had massages for much more in many places and never one that left me feeling the pain and stress free. It is well worth your time while you're in PV to do at least an hour.

  • 3/5 Fa B. 1 year ago on Google
    We were two : one got great therapist , the other therapist was less than average ! Good pricing , clean enough ! Not your Four seasons resort spa , so be realistic and worth it ! Professional attitude so I recommend it !

  • 5/5 John H. 1 year ago on Google
    We have been using Blue Massage for 15 years. Definitely the best no nonsense spa. The owners and staff are very professional. GERALDO, our regular masseuse, is incredible and never disappoints. Seriously we have two or more a week at our home in Amapas. Geraldo comes prepared and on time. We highly recommend him. Myra speaks perfect English and arranges everything by phone. Thank you Geraldo, Myra and all the staff for your year after year great service.

  • 5/5 Emma M. 2 years ago on Google
    I had a hot stone massage at Blue Massage, and I loved the fact that there was AC going as a respite from the outside humid air. Oscar was amazing, and worked his magic on my sore muscles from a hike the previous day. I will absolutely be back.

  • 5/5 Valentina R. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I got his/hers 60 min deep tissue massages from Raul and Edgar. We are coming back for 90 mins in the next few days. Place was air conditioned (perfect for a noon activity), Raul and Edgar were knowledgeable and professional, service was friendly for price cannot be beat. We shared a room with side by side tables, clean bathroom and a shower. Thanks
