I am going to try to condense this and keep it short and sweet other than the big story...
Travel: We did Club Mobay and I would recommend it. Free food and booze and wifi and expedited transfer through the customs process. Well worth it for the money in my book
Resort: Some nice changes since 20 months ago. Here is a list as I can remember:
Lobby: looks a little nicer but I couldn't tell what was new. Check-in was quick and smooth.
Rooms: We had a nude ocean view premium with balcony like last time...two years has taken its toll. they are very nice but getting worn down already. chipped tiles, cracked mirrors etc. But the shower worked great and lots of hot water!!!!
Main Dining room and bar: upgraded and the seats and tables are much nicer.
Food: was better than last time, although there were slightly fewer choices....and I mean this in a good way...they are doing slightly fewer things MUCH better rather than having a zillion mediocre items.
Shows: Great as always
Service: WAAAAY better than last time. We waited for NOTHING this time. and service was with a smile. They nailed this for sure. There are even people bringing you drinks to your lounge chairs on the beach.
Piano Bar: Tons of fun, great shows and not as loud as other's have said. Loud for sure, but not painfully so...
Wine barawesome!!! great wines, and nice atmosphere. They will serve you cheese and crackers to have with your wine too!
Courtyard: Now has seating areas and free wifi. There is even a little lounge bed and there was a foursome going at it one night in that thing....not a bad addition if I say so myself. Many folks hung out there and wandered in an out of the Piano bar and the PLAYROOM!!! Lets talk about the playroom
Playroom: Folks, this is in our opinion the best new thing out there. They have totally renovated the spa (or are in the process) and I am not sure if what we had was a temporary playroom until they finish the official one, but let me explain what it was at this time....in the back of the spa there is an open-air plunge-pool area that is roughly square. In the middle of the square they put 4 mattresses together and that became orgy-central. Then around the periphery of that square they placed individual beds that became the exhibitionist-voyeur zone. There were several side rooms as well with one or two beds in them and a few of these rooms had floor to ceiling windows so it was private, but see-through. The playroom wasn't always busy, but one night we were there with 18 other people...there were 6 in the central orgy zone going at it and another three couples in the outer zone going at it alone. the sounds coming from all around were awesome. its dimly lit with candles...so you can see just enough. and the remaining 6 people were in the side rooms and you could see them through the windows and hear the moans through the glass...very hot. Other nights there could be 1-2 other couples or more...It was a little hit or miss but was really well done. Very comfy to be doing your PDS on a soft mattress with fresh water in a cooler and fresh towels and a bathroom right there.
Beach: All new lounge chairs - much more comfortable.
Spalooks great....We got a couples massage on the beach. Was GREAT.
gymWas great as usual. lots of good equipment.
Pool: (the nude one...we aren't even sure where the prude one is )chilly water but lots of people hanging out
Hot tub Kinda disappointing. Disclaimer: The latest we were there was 1:30 one night but we saw heavy petting, and slightly more but we never saw full on PDA like our last trip. Many others commented that it was a fairly tame week. Maybe things heated up after 1:30 am? Hard to say.
Sexy Vibe Also disappointing this time. Very little PDS all week....At least compared to 20 mos ago. But it was a full house and people were having a great time....which is all that counts.
People I am 47 so I am not young but the crowd was much older than me. Now don't get me wrong, We LOVED hanging out with tons of folks much older than us. In fact, we liked our "older" friends we made way better than the young ones we met (see bummer story below). But Hedo should make an effort to start attracting a younger crowd or else the resort is doing to die slowly from its clientele being too old or infirm to come back for future visits. So lets get into the Bummer story:
Bummer storyValentines day, me and my fiancé buy a very expensive wine at the wine bar and go to Harrysans for a romantic dinner. We are not swingers. We are nudist/exhibitionists and we might consider at most some light touching with a couple we are very comfortable with during PDS in a private room or playroom....anyway, We sit down for appetizers at the side tables while we wait for our table...Another couple exactly our ages sits down next to us a few min later (there were many other open tables....they had noticed us and bee-lined over) and they say "wow, you guys are HOT, where have you been????" We laugh and they sit down and start chatting with us and literally within 2 minutes this guy is touching my fiancé and rubbing her back and telling her how hot her tits (he isn't wrong) are and kissing her on the cheek. NEVER did he ask, or get ANY signal from her that this was OK. In fact, I don't know how he didn't notice that it WASN'T ok. It was VERY awkward. We didn't know them at ALL. But we figured it was in fun and we let it go. Then they came to seat us and these guys INSISTED on sitting with us and this guy INSISTED we do it boy girl boy girl..which separated me and my fiancé by a seat....So my fiancé says right off the bat: So, are you guys in the lifestyle? And we get the "You are damn right we are" from them and when they don't ask us back we just offer up, "well we are NOT" and they looked at us like we had three heads and this woman says with a straight face.."So why are you here?" and we said "to be naked and have sex in public and enjoy our vacation" And they said they had never heard of that at hedo....and this was their 5th trip. They thought EVERYONE was a swinger at Hedo. Anyway, the guy says "Well, we intend to change that...by the end of the night your fiancé will be riding me and you will be on top of my wife fucking her" and this guy proceeds to continue to fondle my fiancé, cup her breasts now and then, and keep his arm around her like HE was with her. It was like a weird dream where nothing was quite right. Meanwhile his wife is touching me, asking me to spank her ass whenever she stands up for anything etc etc. After several minutes of this with neither of us responding at ALL to their uninvited physical advances he puts a hand on my girls leg and starts moving it up to her crotch. That was the last straw. I reached over, grabbed his hand and said "ok buddy, thats enough" and pushed his hand back in his own lap and gave him a look that let him know we were done with this bullshit. He then sat there sulking the rest of the meal. It was such a buzz kill all around. we hightailed it out of there after dinner but ended up having a great time in the playroom after that.
The next day we saw them by the nude pool swim up bar and he comes over and AGAIN puts his arm around my girl, and is acting like we are old friends and they have this "touching is OK" friendship. He starts touching her breasts saying "wow they are a bit warm and sunburn...you need more block" in this mock attempt to pretend he had her best interest at heart and he wasn't just groping her again. She pulled away and we chatted briefly with them and another couple that they "dragged back and fucked the night before" apparently after we blew them off.
The day after that there was a band playing and we were dancing to the music by the nude pool and I saw him out of the corner of my eye walking around the area and I whispered into my finance's ear "10-1 odds pushy swinger guy is next to you touching you within 2 min" and sure enough he saw us and came right over and again inserted himself between she and I and began snuggling up with her the best he could. Again, under this false pretense that the two of them had this nice friendship that allowed this kind of contact....So we just walked away again saying we were just about to go back to sit down when he showed up.
We have been to Desire and Hedo and lots of guys and girls have ASKED to touch my girl's breasts. They are indeed spectacular. Thats fine. I have no issue with that. There is something about asking that sends a signal of trust and respect. And instantly I am ok with it and have zero "territorial" instincts. But somehow when this alpha-male jackass just felt it was his god-given right to touch my finance's body...and put his arm around her and then try to grab her crotch after CLEARLY being told that we weren't in the lifestyle put me in such a territorial mode that it just sucked. You want to not have to be watching where the guy next to you's hands are during dinner. Its supposed to be vacation, not this high-stress situation where you are on high alert the whole time. And this guy single-handedly put me in a foul mood three times (the first being by far the worst).
So there you have it...the good, the bad and the ugly!
We had a great time other than the bummer story and we will come back, but we are going to go back to Desire next year.
I'm going to bed. I'll addendum if I think of anything else.
Peace, out...Trifecta
