The transparent one
Artemis is one of Lisbon’s largest dedicated erotic and tantric massage houses, installed in a townhouse near Saldanha in the orderly Avenidas Novas grid. In a market where nearly everyone hides their numbers behind a WhatsApp thread, Artemis publishes a price floor — €60 for a half hour — which makes it the most transparent operator in the city, and a sensible first port of call for the uninitiated.
A broad, unhurried card
The menu runs the full register: sensual, erotic and tantric work, body-to-body in 30 or 60-minute formats, topless and naturist variants, straightforward relaxation, four-hands sessions and a couples ritual at 75 minutes. Both female and male therapists are on staff, and the client chooses. The complete tariff — beyond the published floors of €60, €120 and €230 — is shared on WhatsApp.
Eight rooms, two jacuzzis
Behind the townhouse door are eight private massage rooms, a generous count by Lisbon standards. Two are fitted for couples, and two come with private jacuzzis — worth requesting explicitly when you book, since they are the rooms everyone wants. The house presents itself with professional interior photography rather than the usual stock imagery, which tells you something about how it regards itself.
Booking the sensible way
Reserve via WhatsApp on +351 213 140 814, where the full price list lives. Hours are civilised: 11:00 to 22:00 on weekdays and 12:00 to 20:00 on weekends, with last bookings an hour before close — so a weekday evening slot at 21:00 is the latest you will get. Saldanha’s metro grid puts the door within easy reach of anywhere central.
