The Story

About This Place

May Spa occupies a quiet lane inside the Caric residential compound off Đường D5, well removed from the main spa clusters along Xuân Thủy. The therapists specialize in strong-pressure bodywork: full-body sessions that leave clients genuinely relieved rather than simply rubbed down. Hot stones are folded into the standard 60-minute treatment at 400,000 VND—an inclusive price that surprises first-timers. Two 60-minute sessions run to 500,000 VND combined, placing it among the more competitive per-session rates in the area.

Communication relies on Google Translate and gesture; the limited English hasn't slowed a steady stream of expat regulars, who account for a significant share of the 349 five-star reviews. Therapist Duong is cited by name for precise work on sports-related muscle strain—pickleball injuries and post-gym soreness feature repeatedly in the review record—and the team draws consistent praise for attentiveness rather than the mechanical rhythm common to higher-volume spots.

The space itself is functional: no elaborate lobby, no tiered upgrade menu. The draw is entirely the quality of the hands-on work, which suits the repeat clients who return for consistent pressure and straightforward pricing. Sessions open at 8 AM daily, with last bookings at 8:30 PM most days and 8 PM on Saturdays, accommodating both early-morning appointments and end-of-workday decompression.

For a district that has accumulated a wide range of boutique wellness options at boutique prices, May Spa offers a different equation: skilled, pressure-focused bodywork at a fraction of the cost, run by a team that has built a loyal following without relying on walk-in tourists or polished marketing.

The staff are extremely kind and courteous and the prices are excellent. 2 x 60 minute massages for my husband and I only cost 500k. We will definitely be back! 💕🤗

I was having Full Body Massage with strong pressure for 60minutes. I'm super satisfied with the pressure, super strong, i love it. I got hot stones and a moment to sleep as well. The lady can't speak english, but she tried to communicate with google translate which I appreciate. It costs me 400k VND for everything, reasonable price. 10/10.

A real hidden gem! I’ve had dozens of massages in Vietnam and this was probably the best. Very kind and skilled staff, and great prices. Not much English but not a problem since you’ll doze off anyways
