De WAVE’s Tamansiswa branch offers a two-hour pause from Yogyakarta’s sightseeing pace: a massage that covers both body and face, with aromatherapy added to the treatment. The appeal is simple. You book one extended session, arrive at a local massage and reflexology outlet, and leave other plans for later.
I like two things here: the treatment gives you a full two hours rather than a quick rubdown, and the listed price is modest for that length of appointment. The towel and slippers are included, which also means you need not pack much beyond your voucher and ID.
The main catch is that the package details and starting prices are not entirely consistent: one description says aromatic body therapy plus face therapy, while the named package is Aromatic Face Traditional Package. Confirm exactly what your voucher includes before paying, and reserve by phone at least a day ahead.

Two hours for body and face
The core attraction is a long treatment in one place, rather than a sequence of sightseeing stops. The listed service uses massage techniques over the body and face, with massage cream and aromatherapy. Towels and slippers are provided. The description does not specify a particular massage sequence, pressure level, scent, or technique, so don’t assume you can select those details in advance.
A 120-minute appointment can suit you if you want a proper break in the middle of a busy Yogyakarta visit. It is also a substantial block of time: allow for the full two hours, plus time to reach the address and check in. The treatment description does not clarify whether changing or consultation time is included in those 120 minutes, so ask when you confirm your appointment if that distinction matters to your schedule.
The body-and-face combination is useful if you want more than a foot-focused reflexology session. Still, the package name, Aromatic Face Traditional Package, does not line up perfectly with the overview’s wording, which describes aromatic body therapy plus face therapy. The safest move is to call the outlet and confirm that your chosen voucher covers both areas and what the word traditional means for this specific package.
The treatment description says aromatherapy is intended to help with various ailments. Treat that as a description of the service, not a promise of medical results. If you have a health condition, tell the operator before the session. You are responsible for sharing that information, and the operator does not accept responsibility for adverse effects that may arise from treatment.

The Tamansiswa setting and address
The meeting point is De WAVE Family Massage, Salon & Reflexology Tamansiswa Yogyakarta, at Jl. Taman Siswa No. 53, Wirogunan, in Mergangsan district. The listed postal code is 55151. The address gives you a clear destination, but the practical details do not describe the building’s appearance, nearby landmarks, or transport options. Use the map and allow extra time if you are unfamiliar with the area.
The branch is open daily, Monday through Sunday, from 10:00 to 21:00. That broad schedule gives you room to fit a session around other plans, but it does not mean you can simply arrive and expect an available slot. Reservations are required, and you must call at least one day ahead. The outlet may relocate or reschedule customers who arrive with a voucher but no advance reservation, so a confirmed time is worth the small effort of a phone call.
The package is for people aged 10 and older. The stated price applies to all ages, so there is no listed child rate. If you are booking for a family, keep in mind that the treatment is a two-hour appointment and that the age minimum is 10. The information does not specify whether family members can be treated at the same time, so ask the outlet rather than assuming it can accommodate a group schedule.
What the price gets you
The displayed starting prices are US$14.99 for the Aromatic Face Traditional Package and US$16.19 in the general price summary. That difference is small, but it is worth checking the final price and package name before you book. Prices include taxes. The package includes the 120-minute treatment, a towel, and slippers; personal expenses and tips are not included.
At roughly the price of a modest meal in many destinations, a two-hour session looks like good value if you want a long, restorative break. The value depends on the treatment matching what you expect. If your priority is a full-body massage, do not rely only on the face-focused package name. Ask the branch to confirm the body and face coverage and any differences between available package options.
One note about a visit describes four hours spent resting and relaxing at affordable prices, but the package specified here is two hours. Don’t build a four-hour stay into your plans on that basis. The listed treatment duration is 120 minutes, and the available information does not say that the voucher includes extra time, multiple treatments, or use of spa facilities beyond the booked service.
Tips and gratuities are not included. They are not described as mandatory, so budget them separately only if you choose to leave one. Other personal expenses are also your responsibility.
Making the appointment go smoothly
Call (0274) 373290 at least one day before your preferred treatment date to reserve a slot. Do this before travelling to the outlet. An e-ticket alone does not secure a time, and the branch can relocate or reschedule customers who have not booked in advance. If you have a preferred time, confirm it directly rather than relying on the opening hours.
Bring your mobile voucher and valid ID. The voucher is valid for 30 days from the booking confirmation date and expires at 23:59 on the final day. It cannot be exchanged for cash. Once purchased, it is non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled, so check the date and treatment details carefully before checkout.
The booking process asks you to provide personal data. Confirmation is expected within minutes. If it does not arrive, contact customer support. The available information does not specify what personal details are required, so have the booking information ready when ordering and follow the instructions shown at checkout.
Once inside, switch your phone to silent and avoid using it. Smoking and drinking are prohibited, and anyone caught doing either may be asked to leave. Anyone who appears intoxicated may be refused service. These rules are straightforward, but they matter when you are planning an appointment after a meal or an evening out.
Keep your belongings with you and take care of them. The booking terms state that neither the booking provider nor the operator is liable for lost items. The service description does not say whether lockers or secure storage are available, so bring only what you need or ask the branch before arrival.
Who is likely to enjoy this treatment
This is a sensible choice if you want an affordable, long massage appointment in Yogyakarta and prefer a body-and-face treatment over a short session. Two hours gives the treatment room to feel like a real pause, rather than another item squeezed between sightseeing plans. The included towel and slippers also keep the arrival routine simple.
It can work for a parent booking for an older child, since the minimum age is 10 and the stated price is the same at every age. But check whether the branch can schedule multiple people together. The service details do not promise simultaneous appointments, and you should not assume that a family can all be treated at the same time.
You may want to look elsewhere if you need a highly specified therapeutic treatment, have health concerns that require advance discussion, or expect a guaranteed choice of pressure, oils, or massage style. Those details are not provided. Call ahead, explain what you need, and decide based on the answer.
It is also not the best fit if your travel plans are uncertain. The voucher cannot be refunded or rescheduled after purchase, and an unreserved customer may be moved to another time or location. Book only when you can commit to a date and have confirmed that the branch has a suitable slot.
Should you book De WAVE Tamansiswa?
Book it if you want a two-hour massage break at a modest price and are comfortable confirming the exact package by phone. The combination of body and face treatment, aromatherapy, and included basics makes for a simple, appealing appointment. I would make the reservation first, then buy only after the outlet confirms the treatment coverage and price.
Skip it, or compare other local spas, if you need flexible cancellation, a precise treatment menu, or certainty about special techniques before booking. The offer is strongest for a straightforward, budget-conscious rest stop, not for someone choosing a spa around detailed wellness claims. Keep the appointment terms in mind, bring your voucher and ID, and leave your phone on silent.
