Nova Spa – A “Hidden” Gem in Richmond

Dropped by Nova Spa, the new spot near Brighouse Station in Richmond. Super easy to get to, and they’ve got designated parking out front, which is a nice bonus if you’re driving. Place is clean and modern, still new so they’re figuring things out, including the lineup — not a ton of girls yet, but they seem to be rotating a few in and out. So far, I’ve seen Eva, Vivi (mixed), Jenny and Emily all solid choices. Definitely a YMMV situation, but the potential is there. The boss lady is cute, friendly, and really tries to accommodate everyone, sometimes a bit too much, which can lead to overbooking during busy times. If you're cool with waiting a bit and not in a rush, you’ll be taken care of. And here's a little tip, with the right approach, she can be persuaded to give you a massage herself. Again, YMMV, but worth noting. One thing I appreciated is that the girls here put safety first, no sketchy or risky stuff going on. If you're clean, respectful, and know how to act, you’ll be treated right. This isn’t the place for loud or rude behaviour, some guy last time was walking the halls yelling about where to buy beer nearby. Total clown. Don’t be that guy. The vibe is more chill and the ladies are on the younger side compared to other Richmond spots, which sets it apart. Nuru bed service is top-tier , honestly, that alone makes it worth the trip. Rates and service details are in their ad, but overall, if you're looking for a clean, discreet spot with good energy and solid service, Nova’s worth checking out. Just treat the place and the staff with respect, and you’ll leave with a smile. Kind of didn’t want to share this one, but fair’s fair. Enjoy, boys — just don’t blow up the spot. 😉

20 years later this place will be as legendary as swan lake

Any further descriptions for the ones you've seen?

The best chemistry I had was with Alina, she matched my energy, wow, again YMMV. Click to expand... cheers, how about vivi? what kind of mixed is she?

I will be in Richmond starting this Sunday. Very interested in trying this place out. Been away for a bit over a year now. Was in LA and visited Hong Kong... so my expectation needs to be modified for North America. SL (Tina) been my go to over the years... with Aegean Sea (Sara) as a back up. Are the current rates about the same as past few years. Hate to over pay and mess things up for locals. For me it was typically 200 total up front (CAN or US) for FS 1 hour. Here in Van as well as down in LA and Tacoma area. Is rate their posted HF plus tip?

Click to expand... you might still have overpaid haha, 220/hr is all inclusive including tips, any tips above that is optional. Of course you’re welcome to tip for great service. Or if you asked for extras like bbj etc then further tipping is also needed.

KatzJager said: ... also... how should I interpret the rate advertised on Leo ... guess won't reply know until you go into the room. Click to expand... You know upfront, they charge the same for everyone, 150-180-220 for 30-45-60 all inclusive, 100 extra for nuru, half service charge is misleading on the ad, more like double that at least

Is service compared to SL? I have always had great service there, but would like to explore a new place. 220 would start with bbbj, cim, massage and 2nd shot fs.

Click to expand... 2 different shops, SL has very experienced and seasoned ladies and that rate and included service you mentioned is more of an SL special. You won’t see that at Nova. 2 different shops, both great experiences though.

No, only cbj, massage and 1 shot. YMMV for extras and don't expect SL level service there. But upside is younger offerings and a fresh clean new place. Caters to a different clientele. And this is likely the more common offering level at MPs in Vancouver. SL is really the exception rather than the rule.

Thanks, guys
