Dave and Carolyn May 25th - June 1st
This is the short version of our trip report. Click here for a more detailed version.
Overall the best vacation we've ever had. Met lots of new people, had lots of sunshine, and of course slept too little and partied too much. We were in the Quad pool area with a swim up room but spent most of our time on the nude side. Quad area was nice since it seemed to be in the middle of everything so it was not far to the room from anywhere on the resort. Fairly quite there most of the time in the mornings anyway so we could sleep after partying all night.
Did we see any PDA's? Almost every day and more often at night. By the middle of the week they had started to crack down a little more on the daytime stuff but nobody said much about the nighttime activities.
Staff honorable mentions: Ricardo of course, Alrick at the piano bar, Kavin filling in for Ricardo, Aldin "AAA" at the disco, Nola at the Scotch Bonnet, and whoever the guy was that first night that made me just what I ordered. He asked what I wanted and I just told him it's been a long day traveling and I need a strong drink. Still don't know what to call it but it worked just fine!
Overall I think the people at the resort were very good, there were times when we didn't get the best service but there were more times when people went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. Ricardo spotted us one night at the main bar waiting to get a drink and came down from the piano bar to make sure we were being taken care of. Now I know that won't happen for everyone but it did mean a good deal to me.
Negative Stuff:
Vinnie The Vest and others of his type: There are too many unattached males there, either locals on a day pass or paid guests. We did see some of the local guys there but didn't see any bad behavior from them.
Hot tubs are usually either too hot or too cold.
Food service although good overall could have been better.
Nude side is much too small.
The nude pool should not have a volleyball net in it. To those that played the games: We were not watching that closely because we love the game. We had to watch to keep from getting smacked in the face by the stupid ball.
Disco too small and too loud.
Too many people talking about at Hedo II this and at Hedo II that. If you like it that much go back there. We've been to both and had a good time at both. Your trip is what you make it.
Closing Stuff:
Overall I'd have to say this was he best trip we have ever had and we are already looking forward to the next time we go to Hedo III.
