Toftt
I went to Ocean Breeze a couple of weeks ago but didn't report on it as there was little to report but, since there's interest now... I stopped in as their big sign caught my eye and the old "Walk-ins Welcome" drew me in. Also, it's on the second floor and the was an intercom buzzer for them at the first floor door. All good signs but I got the tour and everything seemed pretty legit, Still, I thought, "what the heck, I'll TOFTT!"
I took the hour with Bri (pron. "Bree"), a 23 year old, very petite, cute blonde. The first thing she had me do was fill out a medical information booklet with all my personal info (or thereabouts). When we went to the room she was chatting and setting up the table so I started to undress. She politely asked me to wait till she was safely out of the room before getting nekkid.
The massage was very nice but very professional. Bri was mostly quiet unless politely answering my questions. I quizzed her about the place, how long it had been open, how long she'd been there and where they advertise (as I hadn't seen them in the Sun or the yellow pages).
She said that the place had been open over a year but that she had just been there a couple or three months (the place she worked at in TO sounded pretty legit). She said that Ocean Breeze hadn't advertised (other than the big sign) as it was a new owner and they were trying to make sure that they had the right staff, yada, yada. She also said that it looked like they had the right staff and all now so they would be advertising some specials soon.
From the whole adventure, my impression was that it was an "extras" place that is trying to go legit. The hours have changed, the staff has changed and the attitude has changed(?). I would bet that they are going to see how things go with their new business model and then make any decisions from there.
I only met Bri, so there may be other more adventurous staff in the place or Bri may get more comfortable with repeat visits but who has the cash for that when there are lots of other places to try!?!
