A visit to an Indonesian Spa was actually my MAIN point of coming to Jakarta. Apart from shopping for great kebaya materials that is. After some surfing and browsing the internet, getting reviews and suggestions from fellow friends, i decided to try Taman Sari Spa, located along Jln.Sudirman ( just a short 5 minute drive from Plaza Indonesia).
Definitely a 5 star Spa.
I insisted on trying out their 2-hours Javanese traditional Spa Package. For just 400,000 Rp, it was trully worth it! It was actually my first time trying out a full body treatment like this and i surely will come back again.Surely.Definitely. Started with a full body massage, then the body scrub and body mask. One thing for sure, you're entitled to use their jacuzzi and swimming pool for free! Sorry guys, i should've snapped Farid's picture swimming in a javanese batik short pants! :O
I then had my hair cut there at the Spa by a local hairdresser. She made me look like a westernized-Indonesian lady and i think i look quite decent in that.hahaha.
I obviously recommend this place for you who'll be visiting Jakarta. Appointment is advisable especially if you're running out of time/just for a short visit in the city. You might have to wait for some time till you'll be called in, but overall service is good. They have the jacuzzi for you to kill the time after all.
Oh yes, in case you're wondering, they're using Mustika Ratu products in all their services here including their shampoo. I even had my hair smell like those typical 'jamu' *herbs* till the day i arrived back in KL ! :)
