| Do you need to bring or
prepare anything before you come to AFOND Spa?
No, unless you are shy and wish to wear a
bikini / swim wear when you are enjoying the Jacuzzi Bath. We will provide
disposable underwear and towels for your convenience.
For some of the couple packages that includes
a Jacuzzi session, we will leave the room for you to enjoy yourselves, but
please unlock the doors after 20 minutes of the Jacuzzi Bath, so we can
continue to serve you for the rest of your Spa session.
|
|
| Are there
any Couple's Room in both your outlets?
Yes, we have couple rooms available at both
our outlets, these rooms allow you and your friend / partner to enjoy our
Spa Sessions in the same room, they can be booked without extra charges.
There is also 1 VIP Room at South Bridge Road outlet which allows 3
spa-goers to have their spa session in the same room.
Subjected to
availability, advance booking of 3-5 days suggested for weekends and public
holidays.
If you prefer to have your treatments done in
separate rooms, please highlight to us during your reservation.
|
|
| Is the
Shower Rooms and Jacuzzi attached within the Rooms?
Yes, each room comes with a shower room
attached. Your privacy is respected and there will be no need to exit
your treatment room once the Spa session begins. For Jacuzzis, there
are attached jacuzzis for certain couple rooms, so prior reservations are
needed.
The only shared facilities which is
outside of your room is the Restrooms and the Infrared Sauna.
|

facilities to make sure there are no misunderstandings.

We have absorbed all the relevant taxes
in order to provide reasonably priced and affordable Spa services to the
wide public.
|
|

and Nets are accepted, we do prefer cash if possible, that really helps us
to keep our business going by reducing interest payment to these card
companies.

plans with most major credit cards.
|
|

tips are appreciated but not compulsory. Your tip is very rewarding to
the spa therapists because they know that they have performed well and up to
your expectations. Even if you do not tip them, please do praise or
thank them if they have performed well, as that brings happiness to their
day.
|

of the Lunar Chinese New Year.

|
|
| Are all the therapists
female? Yes, all our therapists are
female and most of them are professionally qualified with certificates
recognized by the Singapore Government.
(The only male voice you may hear is the
Manager's, however he is very respectful of your privacy, hence
you will never see him in the rooms once the treatment has began.)
|
|
| Why is it that
AFOND Spa
cannot give a time allowance for customers to be late?
You are required to be 15 mins early for your
reservation, this allows time for you to park your car or find our location,
and visit the restrooms before the Spa Session begins. We always try
our best to accommodate to everyone, however our appointments and rooms are
fully booked especially on weekends, thus all latecomers would have their
treatment time reduced without compensation. This is to be fair to
customers who arrived 15 mins early and made it a point not to be late.
|
|
| Do we
hard sell? "... In my opinion,
this is a prevalent problem in the Spa Industry, where some companies
advertise very cheap rates like $28 for facial or massage but when you are
there, they "force" you to addon treatments for extra costs, and towards the
end of the session, they try to use hard-selling tactics to pressure you
into parting with $5000 to $10000 to sign up for packages or become their
members. This is how they survive their high marketing costs, their
business strategy..."
However, AFOND Spa is proud of
ourselves for being able to survive for so many years without resorting to
such tactics, we refuse to hard sell, we refuse to hide any costs, and we
refuse to make empty promises. We are in this business because of our
Vision:-
AFOND Spa aims to provide
Beauty and Spa Services to the wide public, while maintaining high class
service and quality, achieving
"True Relaxation, Rejuvenation and Revitalization".
So my answer is that "No,
AFOND Spa does not hard sell,
and we also do not disturb you in the midst of your spa session to try to
sell packages to you. In fact, we try our best not to talk to you so
you may relax fully especially during massage."
Hence, if you like our service and our
attitude to excellence, please spread kind words about us and recommend
friends to us, link our website, that way we can continue to spread our
wings above the "vultures".
Our Definition of Hard selling:
"Locking customer up in a consultation room and use 2 or more staffs to
exert pressure on customers to part with obscene amount of money like $5000
or $10000 for packages" and/or "selling within the treatment rooms while the
spa session is still on-going and refusing to keep quiet for the customer to
relax."
Fact: AFOND Spa sell packages which
are value for money and we employ soft skills and non aggressive selling
tactics, we will explain to you about our packages and you make the final
decision on whether to buy or not. Please do not confuse this with
hard selling, this accusation hurts the morale of our staffs who know what
kind of business we are in as compared to other spas out there.
|
|
| Can I
shower before or after my Spa Session?
You may shower before your Spa Session, but
the time is included in your treatment time, which means a shorter massage
session.
No, You cannot shower after your massage.
The reason is that your skin is covered with essential oils and it is not
recommended that you come into contact with water until 2 hours later, or
else rheumatism may occur during old age. Also, it is beneficial for
your body that the essential oils remain on the body for a few hours for it
to be absorbed into the body.
|
|
| When would my sessions in
my package be forfeited? We are
very reluctant to forfeit your sessions, but in the event of either a
"No-show" or a cancellation or change of appointment slots with less than 4
hours to the original start time for the appointment, we will have the right
to forfeit your sessions without any compensation.
"No-show" is when you have confirmed your
reservation the day before and did not informed us of any changes or
cancellation, no attempts were made to contact Afond Spa. In this
case, we have the right to forfeit your sessions without any compensation.
Note: Please understand that you have been
given the reservation while there are people who aren't as lucky and remain
on the waiting list. Without giving us at least 4 hours notice, we are
not able to find customers who can make it in time for a Spa session at Afond, and we have lost our operating capacity due to this. To be fair
to us, we have no choice but to forfeit sessions when the above situations
happen.
To be fair to you, we always try our best
to rearrange another appointment on the same day for you, however it may not
be possible at short notice, especially within 4 hours.
|
|
| Do we
provide any "extra" services?
No. We are a professional Spa and a member of Spa Association
Singapore, we are now a category 1 Spa (The highest accolade awarded to Day
Spas) and all our therapists are
professionals with relevant certificates and diplomas. We provide
proper and professional massage, facials and other spa services.
Please respect our therapists and bear in
mind that the Management does not tolerate any "special" requests and we
will not hesitate to involve the Police.
