I like to ask a different set of questions here. This would be more about the actual resort. Just to get a different perspective and help myself in making a decision to go here.

1. What is the food like? is it all top quality/
2. is it all sit down? buffets?

4. What is usually available for Breakfast? lunch? dinners? any snacks?
5. do they serve food all day long or only certain times?
6. alcohol, is bar open all day and night? what selection of beer do they sell?

8 are staff usually friendly ? good customer service? how has the customer service?
9 how do you arrange airport transfers and what service do you arrange through.
10. What is outside of the resort, that is walking distance?
11. is beach area? what is sand like? is it the sound white/brown stuff? or like gravel etc?
12. can u swim in the ocean? or is it too rough?

17. do the pool areas get really full to the point no room for not everyone?

Thanks people. I think that would be my concerns for now.

If i have any more, will post.

LOL Start surfing

Ok I'll start with #1 I think the food is fine

I would not over-investigate the resort or else you will probably talk yourself out of it. As the Nike commercials say...."Just Do It!".

All these questions and more can be easily answered just reading through past threads. Use
the advance search top right. Each question has been answered 10+ previous times.

Read trip reports on here, there is a lot of information there.

All your questions, well at least most of them are opinion based. So you are going to get many different answers depending on others experiences. Even if you get a majority of answers that are the same, that does not mean you might experience the same. Based on my trips…I will answer for you.

1. That all depends on what you like. I posted on a separate board this morning that “One man’s caviar is another man’s fish bait”. I have had some excellent meals at Hedo and some that were so-so, but never anything awful. You will not go hungry and there is lots of variety throughout the week. I have never starved there and generally the food is better what I eat at home on a daily basis. Added bonus you are not cooking or cleaning up for a week.
2. Buffet Open three times a day. There also is a sit down Japanese and Italian Restaurants. Other lunch options are two grills that serve Jamaican and American fair.
3. All over the spectrum . You will see people dinner dressed to the 9’s to some guy wearing a beach towel. For the sit down places you need to be a little modest.
4. That is too various to answer…see answer 1 about never going hungry and variety.
5. Basically the serve food from 7:00am to 1:00am. Never done it but I have heard you can go to the front desk at 4:00am and get something.
6. 10:00am to 5:00am. You can have Red Stripe or Red Stripe.
7. Cleaned every day, view depends on the room, bed comfort is subjective, and yes you might have some critters running around.
8. One I think we all can agree on, the staff is phenomenal!!!
9. Paid for with the trip. Once thru customs at MBJ, find the Super Clubs lounge and they will take it from there. Your return transfer is set up automatically by the front desk and they will let you know when it is time to leave.
10. Not much…craft market across the street and other resorts. You will need to take a cab to get into the heart of Negril.
11. The sand is like…sand.
12. Negril Beach is more like a lake than a ocean. Area off the resort kinda has a gross bottom and not very deep.
13. For 4.5 miles one direction
14. Me….none!
15. Gift shop…excellent if you need something in a pinch, but $$$$.
16. Nothing compares to Hedo.
17. Depends when you are there. Most times no, but I have been when it has been nothing but elbow to boobie, and that my friend was a fantastic day!!
18. Yep. You will find some neekid people on the prude side but not in numbers nor doing much but chillin under a palm tree.
19. Superclubs.com. But you should really look into a TA that works with Hedo all the time for better rates. There just happens to be one in my sig!
20. Again depends. You will smell the ganga at times in outdoor areas. They crack down pretty quickly if someone tries to light up in the Main Dining Room, Piano Bar or Disco. Never seen anyone cut some lines up on the pool bar, but I am sure it has happened. There is lots of info to be had on this site, best advice would to read as many trip reports as you can and also pickup Chris Santilli’s book, “The Naked Truth About Hedonism”. Good luck!!

WHat ^^^^^ they said

thanks a lot , guys very helpful

I'll make it easy for you. We just got back from our first Hedo trip.
Before we boarded the plane back we knew we would be back...OFTEN.
Still today, we look at ourselves and say things like, "right now on Hedo the pool bar just opened".
We had ZERO problems, made numerous new friends, and literally enjoyed every minute of the center of the universe.
The worst mistake you can do is compare Hedo with any other resort in the world, because there are none.
Do not go to Hedo thinking your going to a resort, go to (and keep going back) Hedo because you realize it is not about the food, the rooms, the beach, the stores, the attractions, the sand, the beer, the airport transfer (even so this was awesome thanks to Bob and Mrs. Texas), or the awesome pool bar. No, you go to Hedo because you want to feel connected with people who understand you,who accept you as you are, who do not care what you do on the outside, who can discuss the meaning of life in one sentence and great shape of a breast in another. EVERYTHING else is just on top.
The people who go to Hedo would also go there even if Hedo only served P and J sandwiches. NO GOES THERE BECAUSE OF THE RESORT... They go there because of the people... So forget your questions, look inside yourself why you want to go, and if it is because you want to be pampered and treated like a king (as some resorts do), then I advise you to look else where. BUT if you just want to be you and be around others who want you to be you, then you have. Found your spot.
Your my2 cents...
Cheers,
Former Hedo virgins

@rast, awesome description of the resort! it is so true that once you go you will know~ kitten

Sounds really good. So all about your existence and being there. and the freedom of expression. sounds good. I like that idea.

Nice job Rast, so glad you found the groove. I like the P&J thing cuz it's true, LOL

As I keep saying if it's a party you want, if you want to meet people easily and have fun this is the best party in the Western Hemisphere, (my friends come from Dubai to H2 annually) period. Oh yea and no rules, yes, no rules,,,,,,,,,,,except you must be nekkid on the nekkid side...........

Or as I like to say,,,,,,,,,,Excuse me, Security would like you to take your clothes off..................how many resorts in the world do you hear that at?

Cheers

Haha the PB & J comment is so very true, but sshhh don't let superclubs know.

PB&J wouldn't get me to go back there but I do enjoy eating Fluffernutters while there.

:)

I would like to apologize for all the typos in my previous post. Sometimes the damn iPad has a mind of its own.
One last comment...
We went from being Hedo virgins to being Hedo slaves.
Before our first visit in Jan. 2012 life was easy, now all we can is think about our next trip...
Thanks to all who made this possible!!!
