I've seen George do a massage or two on the beach, hammerhick. You'll find him at the family shop next to Roda Inn, or helping Alex in Crusoe's - you'd better get in the queue though! ;D
Any other ideas, folks?
Steve

Hi there hammerhick, welcome to the Forum. As you say you have had a good look on-line, I assume that you have been a 'guest' on the Forum and were so impressed by 'us' that you just had to join !! Now for the bad news.... as far as I know there is nowhere in the area that can fulfil your desire for a 'nice relaxing massage'. Now for even worse news...... I volunteer to help out !!!! I think that a massage from a 16 stone Boatmaster from a Tug would be a most memorable experience !! Just think of the reaction of your friends and family when you return home !! ( If you survive ) If you decide to turn down my offer, I will not hold it against you as someone on the Forum may be able to come up with a better idea, ( any idea would probably be better !! ) Hope to see you in Roda, Johno

Welcome to the site Hammerhick, you are already at a distinct advantage (being female) if you want to follow Steve's suggestion and get George to give you a massage on the beach !
I dont think you will need a 'relaxing' massage on arrival, as I bet that within hours of your arrival in Roda you will feel totally relaxed and at ease!
Enjoy your holiday and let us know how you get on in our favourite place.
kind regards, Kath.

On a serious note, I thinks there is probably massage available in Acharavi at the new spa at St George's Bay Country Club. It is a good half hour walk from Roda and it will be quite expensive.

I'm not sure what you would get for 60 Euro but my daughter and a number of friends enjoyed an excellent 30 minute back massage from a chinese lady for 20 euro on the beach.

Hi all, thanks (I think!!!) for your advice - I think we might just let the sun and cocktails do their job... might check out Acharavi as well. Can't WAIT to get over there x

Beep, Beep, Lynda! ;D - pushing the wheelchair from the Coral to Dimitra supermarket - 25 minutes, no problem. And that was taking our time on the seafront before the road was 'resurfaced.' I added another five minutes to be kind.
