I walked in today feeling like a human pretzel that had been sat on, but my masseuse sorted me right out. Everyone was so friendly and happy, which really helped me settle in and relax immediately. The session was incredibly calming and professional. I feel like I've gained two inches in height and lost a decade of stress. I will be back soon! read more

My wife suggested I start my two-week vacation with a massage. I usually enjoy massages and have had massages from other studios as well as using Relaxing Thai Massage (a few doors down) a few years ago. They seem to have gone out of business so I used Tranquil Thai Massage. I had booked a 90-minute massage. The owner/manager told me they would give me an experienced therapist. The woman who massaged me used her elbows a lot and pushed so hard I would wince (I'm a pretty tough guy). She asked if she should go lighter. I said yes, and after a couple minutes she would press too hard again, continuing to use her elbow a lot. When she finished, I gave her a $20 tip. After dressing and starting to leave, the manager tried to pressure me to give more. I told her no, this is what I want to give. I guess they don't understand that a tip is based on satisfaction, not just on a percentage of the bill. The day after, I hurt all over and the pain lingered for two weeks. I have never had this feeling after a massage. I'm wondering how she was trained. Based on these negative experience, I will NOT be using their services again. read more

Called in for the same day appointment and I was accommodated pretty quickly. I had an hour combination massage, which is $75 in cash w/o tips. If you would like to pay with the credit card or debit card, there will be extra prob 2 % fee adding on. I walked out with feeling like walking on the clouds. My body was so relieved from the tension and overuse ( I workout a lot but not stretch much). Honestly it's the best $75 I invested! My masseuse is Gal #8. She noticed how tight my back and neck are. She spent most of the time trying to loosen muscles up and apologized to me that she didn't spend much time when I turned around. Honestly, I really appreciated what she did! There wasn't a need of apology from her end. I was grateful that she didn't go through "standard process". She did not use tiger balm on me ( okay I was little bummed but it's not a big deal at all) I am actually a fan of tiger balm. Gal started with asking me if medium strong is okay. I told her yes but I will let her know if it's too much! She listened when certain spot hurts from tightness and she would apologize. I recommend communicate your expectations with your masseuse or the front desk before starting the session. I did say no for walking on my back and they listened. If you are newbies: 1. Express the strength you would like to have 2. Combination Thai msg: including walking on the back and stretch. 3. I think each masseuses is different on using tiger balm?! I'm guessing. No harm to verify with them. Again thank you Gal :) it was a great massage. read more

I love coming to Tranquil Thai! Years ago, I had injured my back during working out. I tried *everything* - saw an orthopedic surgeon, went to physical therapy, had ultrasound massages, cupping, acupuncture... No one could fix it and I was in chronic pain for literally 2 years. One week, when it was especially painful, I booked a massage here to try to find some relief. Whoever I had at the time, completely fixed it and I never had issues with that muscle again! I was so incredibly thankful for the ongoing pain to go away. Now in 2025, I had been experiencing some really intense neck pain - maybe slept on it weird or something (lol). It became shoulder pain too. It kept coming back on/off for about 2 months. This past week, it was SO painful - meds, ice packs, heat pads, and icy hot patches didn't help. So again, I booked a massage again for some relief. I had Jasmine for this massage and she is incredible!! She was very kind, applied the perfect amount of pressure, and knew exactly how to approach the discomfort I was experiencing. My neck/shoulder pain was reduced by about 80% that evening already, then was completely gone by the next morning. I literally can't thank her enough and Jasmine is going to have to be my go-to now :) read more

Hello, I appreciate the original upfront cost and service. And my original intention was to give you a five star review. Unfortunately, the upfront cost was $70 which I'd agreed to. As I was paying to leave, the person at the front desk did state that I owed $80. This was a discrepancy, for the sake of avoiding conflict. I went ahead and paid the $80. Now, in your review you're telling me that that did not occur. So this is something where I have to encourage any would be patron to be aware of business practices. "She did not charge you $80". That implies that I'm being dishonest, so for that reason, I have to change my review to one star. I'm not going to engage in conflict. I'm not gonna engage in banter. I would ask that your business stick to the original price and not change the price as people are leaving. If people want to tip your staff, that is up to them however people should not feel compelled to pay more than they agreed to because your staff changes the price last second. And people need to be aware of this. read more

Tranquil Thai Massage - Sign near front door - Massage Therapy Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

My rating is based on the massage performance compared to the price. For a $75 1-hour massage combo, I would definitely say this is not worth it. I know my experience was highly dependent on my therapist, but this also says a lot about the whole place. First of all my therapist always are in grey area, meaning it's either too soft that she barely gave any pressure or it's too much that when she massage me, her whole body was shaking, Second, she focused mostly on my shoulder, while this is a whole body massage, so I end up not satisfied. read more

I absolutely love this massage place. The place is super clean and they make you wear their slippers inside. I have been here a couple times and I have not gotten a bad masseuse. Make sure you book early if you do find a masseuse that you like. The front desk guy is super cool and their prices are very reasonable. read more

Practically staggered in here because I needed a massage badly. Recently came back from a long flight and travel, plus previous work stress. So it was time. Thankfully, Jasmine pulled me back to normal again. I didn't realize how much the shoulders and neck needed it. So much relief taken off my back! I'll be returning here regularly as part of my wellness routine! read more

The masseuse I had was excellent. I'm 6 feet tall 230 pounds and the masseuse had no trouble identifying areas that needed work with the skill enforce necessary to release the tension. She worked super hard and achieved fantastic results. Highly recommended. read more

I've been going to Tranquil for almost 4 years now, and honestly, I've hesitated to write a review because part of me didn't want to share it too much I didn't want it to get so busy that I couldn't get in! But I wanted to show some love and give credit where it's due, especially to Sara, the owner. She's always made sure I'm taken care of and getting the best massage experience. Over the years, I've seen a few different people there, but here are my top 3: Yaya - She's hands down the best. I'd give her a 5/5 for sure. She's super popular (and for good reason), so don't expect to get a same-day appointment she's usually booked days in advance, but it's always worth the wait. Vicky - I'd give Vicky a 4.5/5. She's a safe choice, especially if you don't get massages regularly. She's consistent, makes sure you're comfortable, and really knows how to help you relax. Maya - Maya's great too a 4.25/5 in my book. She doesn't do traditional Thai massage, but focuses more on stretches. If you've been really active or are feeling tight, she's solid choice at loosening everything up. read more

Never left a bad review and waited a week to post This but Went last Sunday for a couples massage for my gf birthday. Arrived early and everything seemed great. Left more sore and in pain than when i arrived. Out of an hour probably 50 minutes was walking on my back. Had to ask 3 times to be more soft and nothing changed. Seemed like rubbing was too much work and rather just walk on my body instead. 5 minutes of oil rubbing on my back then walking continued. Fully standing on my quads and hamstrings and neck. I feel like I played a full game of football like I was back in college. I'm 6 foot and 240, workout everyday and Haven't been able to perform due to the actual physical pain I am in from the massage. I apologize for the bad review but this massage has left me in actual pain and something had to be said. read more

I don't want to be mean or insensitive, but I do not think my masseuse has any business standing on people's back. I won't describe her, so I'll leave it at that. She literally cracked a rib. I have a cracked rib after a massage. I've had dozens of Thai massages with them standing on my back, but never had a rib cracked. It hurts to breath, turn, lie down, or sit up straight. I can't speak for the other masseuses, but if you get one and a little voice inside your head screams at you not to let her stand on your back...listen to it. EDIT: This business either doesn't know how or refuses to refund my credit card. The owner also accused me MULTIPLE TIMES of having a discrepancy with my reservation name or leaving a fake name and number. I was a WALK IN OFF THE STREET. I didn't leave my name or my number. DO NOT GIVE YOUR MONEY TO THIS AWFUL PLACE. read more

One of the best massages I have ever had. The owner was so friendly and pleasant. My masseuse was very professional and gave the best deep tissue massage using her feet (walking on my back which was so awesome and fulfilled a Life List goal of mine) and other parts of her body. I actually fell asleep and snored at one point as I was so relaxed. The facilities are very clean and you can't beat the amazing prizes. I will definitely go back next time I am in SoCal. read more

My normal massage place had a blip and I needed to find a new spot. This came up as close by. I had never been to a Thai Massage place so I wasn't sure what to expect. I called and asked if they had female therapists and private rooms (I had been somewhere years ago that was a big room with everyone, not relaxing to me). The person on the phone was kind and friendly. I arrived early for my appointment and was greeted warmly and asked to change into their sandals. I was quickly ushered back and shown where to put my things and how to get situated. I noticed how impeccably clean the space was. The tables are warmed and it felt amazing. My therapist came in and asked where I had any problem issues which was my back and calves and she went right to work. Very little talking, yet she found every knot. I was not prepared for it when she got on the table and began walking on my legs, I may have cried out in shock. She was so kind and asked if it was my first Thai massage, which it was. She then walked me through everything else. I am pretty sore day after but also don't feel the pulling and tight muscles. I'll be back, more prepared this time! read more

I have been here about 3 x now :( unfortunately this last time wasn't a good experience for me:( I came in last week on Friday for a massage, normally before I was really satisfied with the place and had a good experience. This last time, although the masseuse was kind.. she was too rough for me :( she never asked what kind of pressure I like and went FULL force and put her body weight into my back:( and I've been in pain ever since... my back has been so stiff it's really hard to rotate and my neck has been sore as well. Normally you shouldn't have to leave the place feeling more pain:( My other issue was that she didn't ask me if I wanted tiger balm, she just put it on.. so personally I don't like tiger balm because it makes me really cold and I don't find it enjoyable :/ so I couldn't relax at all.. I also noticed that her massage wasn't consistent with other masseuses... she didn't do the full back stretch or really focus on my neck and shoulder like I had asked:(( So when I called back the next day because my back was actually in more pain and more stiff since the massage.. the owner didn't finally get back to me until Monday because I had to call again:/ but she really didn't have any concern for my pain or discomfort. Instead she said "oh well every masseuse is different and you should stick with who you like" I understand what she says by this, however as a massage salon specializing in a specific technique. You should ensure all your employees are trained the same. The most she offered me was 50% off my next massage :/ and insisted I booked that day and she said "I will let the other girl know she will only be paid $37 instead of $75." So basically making me feel guilty rather than taking more accountability for my injury. I did call her back to inform her I wouldn't be going to the appointment after all, however she didn't answer or respond to my voice mail and marked me a no show. I truthfully am just upset with the lack of care and professionalism from the owner.. I am in genuine pain and might actually need to visit my doctor and a chiropractor now because of someone's wrong doing. PROCEED WITH CAUTION.. I am so upset because I don't like to complain, I understand people are working hard and need ends to meet. But the owner really needed to do better :/ read more

Gawwwwwwh damnnnnnnnnnn! I've never been destroyed and reconstructed at the same time. I asked for medium hard pressure and I sure got it. Everything felt amazing. Pain now for a full body relief later. I've been having shoulder issues and once she dug her elbows into them I knew I'd come out feeling better than ever. The masseuse was extremely nice and somehow knew where I needed the most work done on. What a crazy experience. I'd 100% recommend this place to anybody. read more

Wow, talk about a real massage with a master, YaYa is amazing. She knows where the tensions are and how to handle the knots.

I really enjoy the Thai massage because of the stretching involved. I have been here three times and enjoyed it so much that I bought my wife a 90 minute massage as a gift. read more

Mother of God! Vicki at Tranquil Thai Massage just gave me the best deep tissue massage of my life. I am literally in their parking lot writing this review because I am in awe of how amazing I feel. A big part of me doesn't want to disclose that Vicki is the best masseuse on this planet. The other part of me feels like I would be doing a disservice by not disclosing just how amazing this woman is... When I imagine the hands of god, I picture Vicki. She works magic and makes you feel like you are in another realm while she fights off every demon in your back. I have been to numerous Thai massage places and Vicki is BY FAR the best I have ever had! read more

Very overrated and unprofessional. The rooms were not soundproof at all that I had to hear a man moaning right next to my room. The therapist also dozed off from time to time and had to question her expertise. Receptionist was also not in her professional manners, not willing to provide any assistance despite the delay at the waiting room. Reviews are left for feedback. The owner's reply shows denial and no effort to improvise.. It shows how much unprofessional this place runs and proved my review. read more

I've been having shoulder pain due to working out and carrying a heavy book bag for school so I decided to make an appointment. Upon arrival I was greeted and taken into one room. The location is very clean, professional, and comfortable. Jasmine was the one who took good care of me. She made sure I had the perfect pressure and got rid of all my knots on my shoulder. Made me feel really comfortable and it was a wonderful, relaxing experience. I will be coming here again thank you Jasmine. read more

Thank you, Nicole, and the owner, Sarah, of Tranquil Massage. Their prices are so low, but customer service satisfaction is very high! OMG, Nicole gave me the best massage ever. It was as if I custom-ordered her massage! She knew exactly where the knots were and the proper pressure to use. The owner is also so helpful and friendly! I'm so excited to return in a few weeks and see you, Nicole! read more

The test of a great massage is when you walk out not realizing you are still wearing the slippers they give you. This place is amazing. Full 90 minutes. I haven't fallen asleep in a massage in a very long time. This therapist turned my pent up body into mush. I slept that night for the first time in weeks. Highly recommend! read more

Was visiting our daughter in Huntington Beach and was looking for a Thai Massage place before we left and came across Tranquil Thai Massage and all the 5 star reviews. We usually hit Rain Thai Massage in Ventura or Serenity Thai Massage in Riverside. Both top notch establishments. We booked a 90min couples massage and just got finished. This place is the real deal. Those 5 star reviews are legit. I'm adding another. We just found another 3rd go to Thai Massage place when coming to the OC. Prices are fair and both therapists we had were dialed. We had the Thai / Swedish combo. We're both like jelly right now. Definitely put this place in your bookmarks / collections. It won't disappoint. Don't let the strip mall facade fool you. Sara (the owner) said they might be moving down the street to another complex so keep an eye out. read more

Wow!! This is the best massage place in town! We've been going here regularly twice a month. The therapists (Vicky and Yuri) are so knowledgeable at finding the knots!

Had my second massage and this time with Vicky. She was fantastic! Felt like she addressed every problem area by massaging every individual muscle strand with the perfect pressure. And this is the first masseuse who didn't immediately talk about how tight my neck and shoulders are. Instead, she just took care of me and let me relax and kept checking to make sure I was good and breathing at the right times. Highly recommend! I've been doing other massages for several months (scalp, Swedish, body treatments) and honestly none of them are as relaxing and makes me feel good as Thai. And this place is soooo good! Best one in OC I've tried. I used their morning special Monday-Thursdays til 2pm it's $65 for their massage! read more

We had the couples massage here to celebrate Mother's Day. The massage was great and the walking felt really good getting the kinks out of my lower back. Parking is easy and literally next to Mitsuwa so we had ramen dinner after our amazing massage. What a way to enjoy Mother's Day. read more

My girlfriend and I were about 20 years overdue for a massage. We had never had one before and I decided to take us for our anniversary. I didn't know what to expect going in but they really worked on getting our knots out. We got the couples massage with CBD oil. I had no idea they would walk on us lol, they did ask if it was okay beforehand. The massage therapists checked in throughout to see if we were okay with what they were doing/ the amount of pressure. I enjoyed it overall! read more

My Bf and I just came back from our vacation that required alot of walking + the bed in our Airbnb was killing our backs and hips so a deep massage with stretching is a must. We booked a Combo couple massage and got Eve and Jay. We were 10 mins early and they were able to serve us on time. This place is filled with relaxing essential oil that I recognized from Bath Body Works... and also my favorite massage oil from that brand too. Jay, my masseuse asked me where I needed to be taken care of more and how much pressure I wanted. She also stepped on my back thighs and lower hips. This was the first time I got that as I was always hesitant being a little creature. But no, the medium pressure was durable and giving me a pleasant painkiller for my soreness. Then she covered me with hot oil continuing the deep tissue and finished with compromising hot stones. My bf loves his massage too as Eve gave great pressure for his tight muscles. I have been to countless massage spots, and this place is a blessed! read more

Let me just start by saying that this place is amazing staff is very friendly and attentive. I've been coming here for the past 4 years and have never had a bad experience with them. This place is always nice and tidy. staff is very skilled and I always leave very satisfied with their massages. If you were looking for sign to give this place a shot please do, you will not regret it.Thank you Tranquil Thai Massage team for your amazing work. Keep it up!! read more

Hands down the best massage I have ever received! I've never had a Thai/Swedish massage and wasn't sure what to expect and it was incredible. The masseuse paid great attention to my areas of concern and didn't miss anything. Amazing experience and I will be back! Amy & Eve were our masseuse's, Thank you Tranquil read more

The best massage shop I've ever been to! Before settling on Tranquil Thai Massage, I probably went to about 5-7 different massage shops. I found this business on Yelp in July 2022 bc my partner and I were really sore after moving. My massager Viki was so great that I have been coming almost every week ever since. It's usually hard to find a good massager right away because it takes time for the massager to learn the customer's body. But with Viki, it was instant. Highly recommend this place. Seriously WORTH every penny. read more

Highly recommended! Yaya provided an exceptional massage--she was friendly, thoughtful, and made me feel completely comfortable. Her technique was amazing, and I could tell she genuinely cared about my experience. One of the best massages I've ever had! I chose the combo massage, and it was absolutely worth it. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

One of the best massages I've had! I usually only get massages when I travel for vacation so I've had massages at 5-star hotels in Hawaii, Santorini, Napa, etc. The massage here is half the price of a massage at a luxury hotel but the quality was just as good--actually probably even better! The ambiance here obviously isn't going to be on par with the spa at a luxury hotel, but you still get a nice private room and an overall relaxing and clean setting (much better than that of other massage places I've been to in SoCal suburbia). I had Vicki as my masseuse and she was excellent. In the beginning, she asked me what pressure I preferred and I said medium. She applied a perfect medium pressure throughout the massage and she constantly checked in to make sure I was content with the pressure. I live in San Francisco and am only in the OC area when I visit my parents so I'm not sure what the average pricing is for massages here, but $60 for an hour-long massage of this quality felt like an absolute steal. I'll absolutely be back and take my parents here next time. read more

Excellent place for a massage. I end up spending around $90/100 with tip so I cannot come every week but I would like to! Very clean & the owner is kind. Highly highly recommend! read more

My partner and I come here at least once a month and absolutely LOVE it. We get a couples massage and we have always been amazed by our treatments. The prices are incredible, the facility is clean, and the staff is SO nice! I've recommended this place to several friends. Side note: I'm very active and weight lift 5-6x a week. I've never tried the actual sports massage here - only the Swedish/Thai. But it feels like a sports massage. The technicians always get deep into the muscles and based on their techniques I can tell that they know the anatomy of areas they're working on. You also get a bit of stretching. I always notice a difference in my mobility and lifts after my massage! read more

First time here and I highly recommend! My masseuse was Jay and she was really good! I feel so relaxed during and after. I called prior to coming in and they had the time I wanted available. You can pay with card but make sure you tip in cash. read more

My partner and I came here to get a couples full body combination massage. We have never had a Thai massage before and didn't know what to expect, but we live so close we checked out the reviews and decided to give it a try. The place was very cute and smelled amazing. I let my masseuse know it was my first time and just a couple areas I would like focus on. She really did address those spots and more. I asked for medium pressure and I was so glad I didn't say firm because some moments were a little painful, but in the best way. She asked if she could massage my face and scalp and that was amazing! The last 10 or 15 minutes she asked if I wanted to try some stretching and man, that was the best ending. Next time I may do 90 minutes just so I can have more stretching time. We did request the hot stones and never got them but regardless we both loved our experience and will be going back and bringing our roommate and friends too. I believe the front desk told us our masseuse's names were Rikki and Gil but I could have heard wrong. Tip your masseuse well, they are helping us heal and deserve it. read more
