Couples massage: what’s included and which experience to choose
Here you don’t choose a type of massage, but a place. This guide helps you pick an experience and a length, and walks you through what happens from the moment you arrive until we say goodbye.
By the Premium Massage Málaga team
What does a couples massage include?
As a couple, with a friend or with your mother: the room has two massage tables and two therapists look after you at the same time, one each. There is only one appointment at a time: while you’re inside, the room is yours alone.
- A short welcome ritual.
- The room prepared with the experience’s music, light and scent.
- The massage for both of you at once: 60 or 90 minutes, whichever you choose.
- The experience’s signature drink and an unhurried farewell.

The six experiences, one by one
Sounds of the sea
The most serene of the six. Perfect after a long week or on the first day of a holiday, when it’s still hard to switch off. If you don’t know where to start, start here.
By the fireplace
The warmest. It’s the one for autumn and winter afternoons, anniversaries and Christmas presents: the light of the fireplace, crackling logs and a woollen blanket at the foot of the massage table.
Volcanic experience
For anyone craving warmth right through the body: hot basalt stones accompany the massage. It suits anyone who arrives with a back full of tension, and the therapist adjusts the pressure for each of you. If you’re pregnant or have any health condition, let us know when you book.
A night in 1920s Paris
For celebrating: an anniversary, a birthday, a proposal. Jazz of the era, candlelight, the scent of French lilac and a red berry drink to finish.
Nights of al‑Andalus
For those who come to Málaga to discover its history. The Alcazaba is a few minutes from the room, and this experience brings its courtyard indoors: the water of a fountain, orange blossom and jasmine.
Mediterranean forest
For anyone who needs fresh air: soft rain and birdsong, as in the Montes de Málaga, and the scent of lily of the valley. A good choice to share with your mother, or with a friend who misses the countryside.
60 or 90 minutes of massage?
The massage lasts 60 or 90 minutes. We welcome you calmly, you get ready without rushing and you finish with the experience’s drink.
- 60 minutes (€140) if it’s your first time, if you have other plans that day or if what you’re after is mainly to relax.
- 90 minutes (€220) if you’re arriving with a lot of tension in your back, if you’d like your therapist to work without watching the clock or if it’s a celebration.
If it’s a gift
If you’re not sure which experience the recipient would like, there’s no need to guess: on the gift card you can choose “Let the recipient choose”, and they’ll pick the experience when they book. More ideas for getting the gift right.
