Runaway Bay - Jamaica |
Here are a few trip reports submitted by
some of our clients. |
| February 2008 - Sheree |
 |
This was our 2nd trip to Hedo III. Service,
friendliness of staff, and cleanliness were as good as before. Last year the
buffet food was just mediocre. However, this year it was wonderful! Great
selections and quality food. We'll be back next year! |

We just returned from H3, our Christmas
present to each other. After 4 years of going to the resort, we were very
impressed with the changes this year. Management was everywhere and making sure
that everyone was happy. The food was better than any trip in the last two
years. Even the chefs, bar managers, etc..were out asking questions and making
sure everyone was happy. Towels, if you couldn't find one someone would find
you one. Bartenders circulated the pools constantly. There were only 4 of the
entertainment staff left from last year, but they created all new shows and
they were REALLY good. The newbies were working hard to impress and they did.
Outside the disco, a lounge had been set up which was WONDERFUL for everyone to
socialize. They were trying this out and we hope that they keep it. The only
negative was the Piano Bar. The new guy just did not compare to our previous
experiences. Room service was on time everday with coffee and treats! .
Needless to say it was an amazing winter break and NOW I can't wait to go back
in June with our friends. |

We have been to Hedo on 4 prior visits.
This time we noticed a concerted effort to improve the customer service by the
resort staff. Much improved for Hedo 3. Castaways was excellent. |

| April 2007 - Steve & Darla |

This was our second trip to Hedo 3; our
first was the second week of November 2006.
We went with another
couple that had invited us. We had discussed going for several years but never
did due to the same reservations many have, out of shape, age, conscientious of
what people would think, etc.
Unknowingly, we went the week that a
group called Kink in the Caribbean was booked, although we are not into that
lifestyle, those folks made for a memorable and enjoyable week, they were
polite, and never once pushed anything on anyone. The first trip, the resort
was full, as soon as we got there we headed straight for the nude pool, dropped
trou and jumped in head first, after 15 minutes, life was good. We are both
workaholics and true vacations are hard to enjoy. That week was the most
relaxing week either of us had ever experienced, before the week was over, we
knew we'd be back as soon as we could.
The following covers
comparisons of the two trips. We left for our second trip the 2nd week of April
2007.
First trip: the resort was full, 2nd trip the resort may have
been 50% - 60% full, many said it was busy the week before and this week was
slow due to spring break and many parents had plans with their kids elsewhere.
First trip, our non-stop Air Jamaica flight stopped in Atlanta for 1 hour, 2nd
trip, flight was delayed 1.5 hours in Chicago, non-stop to MoBay once we took
off. The airport has had numerous renovations since November trip.
We
got through customs quickly, went to the superclub room and were on our way to
Hedo 3 with in 20 minutes on both trips. The road construction has improved
immensely since November, a few rough areas, but much improved, it can only
continue to get better. Took slightly over and hour which may seem long to
some, but the bus ride is part of the experience, enjoy it, this is a great way
to meet other people that are also
Going to Hedo 3!
Both
trips; arrived, were checked in quickly with out hassle. First stay was in the
800 building, nice room, nice location, this week we stayed in the 400
overlooking the quad, this room was nice as well, there was pool noise coming
in the bathroom windows, but if you closed the bathroom door, there was
silence. Access to the entire resort is convenient from all locations. Never
any major hot water problems either week, if you choose to shower around 7:00
to 7:30pm the same time as everyone else, there will be less pressure and
possibly warm water. Solution - shower later or earlier. We spent all our time
at the nude pool, first trip; it was packed, around 5:00pm every night, PDA
everywhere, 2nd trip, very little PDA. The people make everything enjoyable and
the people both trips were wonderful, it is what you make of it, with whomever
you make it with.
Food was persistently good, naturally, some better
than others, it's all up to personal choice, and there are many. We dined at
Munason's 3 nights as that is our preference, the food is awesome, the
airconditioning works well in there and it is more of a social time with people
you've met, and peopleou've yet to meet. First trip, there were people
everywhere early evening, 2nd trip, it was slower.
Things didn't get
started until much later in the evening, but then again, it was a much smaller
group. The weather was awesome both trips. The staff was exceptional; we were
surprised how many of the staff remembered us from our first trip, it's a nice
feeling to get hugs for coming back. Since tips are unacceptable, we took
jewelry, and other small appropriate gifts to discreetly give to some of the
staff members for their assistance. Expressing gratitude is advantageous no
matter where you are staying.
Packing; less is good, first trip, 2
huge bags, 2nd trip, 1 huge bag and we still had a few things we didn't wear,
don't over pack, take what you need for evening wear for the nightly
festivities, (your naked most of the daytime) and remember to take a few things
that you take for granted at home, e.g. aspirin, tooth paste, condoms, all
these items are very expensive in Jamaica.
Then comes the sad day of
departure and back to reality, first trip; good ol' Air Jamaica delayed our
flight from 4:45 to 9:45pm, fortunately they informed us in advance and we
stayed at the pool and relaxed for the day. 2nd trip, got to the airport for
our 4:45 flight, good ol' Air Jamaica let us know at 4:40 that the flight will
not depart until 9:45. Setting in an airport for 7 hours blows big time, I can
best compare it to road rage. The first trip we got into Chicago at 1:00 am,
the last bus out was at 10:30 pm, the next bus out was at 6:00 am, we ended up
renting a limo for $125.00 to take us the 1.5 hour drive to our car.
2nd trip; due to strong head winds we arrived at O'Hare at 2:00 am, again, last
bus out was at 10:30 pm. This time, I had a civil but to the pointed discussion
with an Air Jamaica rep, they shelled out $130.00 for a ride to take us to our
car. Out side of Air Jamaica, we have no major complaints.
The EC's
try to get everyone involved in activities; even those that hesitate enjoy
themselves.
A nice long beach to walk on would be nice, but we still
enjoyed ourselves, we never strayed from the pool. Some of the resort is in
need of minor repair, but nothing that is unbearable. The evening attire was
creative and sexy, some left little for the imagination, and some left none.
You can drink till you float, you can smoke ganja till your green, but you'll
never run them out of either, they can produce it as fast as you consume it.
All inhibitions disappear, for us; it brought out a romance and passion that we
had misplaced years ago.
Trust us, you'll never want to lose what you
experience; you'll take it home with you.
As is life, Hedo 3 is what
you make of it, fine people, cold cocktails and good times can be enjoyed by
anyone if you take it upon yourself to relax and be open. We relaxed, enjoyed
ourselves, and met some wonderful people. Hedo 2, or 3, I have no idea if one
is better than the other, but we will be going back to 3 again in November
2007. |

| April 2006 - CJ & Sammy |

We've decided to post a report that is
a more about the "sexy" aspects of Hedonism III. Yes the food was great, the
entertainment so-so, but we think the real character of the place is in the
attitude of the guests along with some of the downright sexy, sensual and often
erotic activities that go on there. If this report is not appropriate for your
site, feel free to edit it as you see fit, and we'll understand if you choose
not to post it at all.
Regards, CJ
Editors Note & Warning: This following
story is a bit on the risque side and if you are offended, please skip this
one. Our policy is usually not to publish outright "sex stories", but this
report is well written and does exemplify some of the "wilder side" of this
resort from time to time.
I want to thank
you guys for directing us to Hedo 3. It turned out to be an adventure neither
of us will ever forget.
When we arrived on Monday we quickly realized
that the resort was dominated by a large group of "lifestyles" type folk.
Probably 9 out of 10 couples we with this group. The folks in the group were
friendly enough, but when they realized that we weren't "hard core" so to
speak, we basically found ourselves on the outside looking in.
We
ended up making friends with two other couples, also "outsiders", and by
Wednesday our own little ad-hoc group numbered 6 couples. At least one in each
couple was pretty outgoing, and we had a great time, hanging out and doing
almost everything together. All of us had experience with being nude on
vacation before, but none of us could be classified as swingers (at least as
far as I know). My wife Sammy and I had been to a lot of nude places before and
as she is a little petite "knockout" we had bunches of "offers" in the past,
none of which we ever obliged. A few times I had broached the subject with her,
but was quickly shut down on it, which was OK with me anyway.
On
Thursday night after dinner our little group had the hot tub to ourselves as
the big group had overtaken the entertainment stage, main pool and waterslide.
We were all modestly "lubricated' with wine or other drink and most inhibitions
in our conversation fell by the wayside. A lot of talk about funny or sexy
"escapades" and fantasies were all discussed, most of it accompanied by
sidesplitting laughter by all. All of us guys had expressed our fantasies of
the girl-girl thing and the girls obliged us with a bunch of sexy group poses
and teasing.
One of the gals announced a bet that she could tell which
guy was who, just by sitting on their lap for 10 seconds each... and
that’s when the games began. It all seemed to be in good fun and since
Sammy was in the middle of the challenging, I took it to be all right.
Surprising to be sure, but obviously Ok with her.
Suffice it to say,
after each gal had been blindfolded by a towel, and sat fairly carefully (and
rather nervously) on each of the guys laps, 2 out of 6 was the best
identification any of the girls could do, but who the heck cared.
This
is when things got a lot more physical. The gals challenged each other into
what basically ended up becoming a female group grope. I wasn't surprised that
Sammy seemed to love the attention but I was more surprised that she was
willing to get physical about it, was giving as much as she was getting and
seemed OK with the situation. Wow, what a turn on.
The big "gangsome"
starting wandering over from the other pool and disco and such so we took our
games to the little beach by the far pier.
Now granted, our games were
done with much laughter and in a game playing kind of way, and could have ended
innocently enough after the first hour, but by that time all inhibitions were
gone at least as far as Sammy and I were concerned, but for others it took a
bit longer.
While you wouldn't exactly call the "games" that went on
for the next few hours sex, it would be fair to call it everything but. Lets
just say that variations of the guessing games that evening escalated greatly
and any remaining nervousness seemed to fade away. This could never be
published if I went into too much detail, but over the next few hours the games
included the gals trying to identify the guys by using hands, mouths and
crotches on various male body parts. And the guys got well into the act by
trying to guess the gals identity using hands, mouths, taste and sometimes even
more.
The final and absolute best was another lap sitting
identification game that was much different and each about a minute longer than
the earlier ones in the evening. These were the best (and only) lap dances I
had ever had. And six in a row was incredible. the experience had very much of
a Viagra type effect on me (that was not wasted) and Sammy says that each of
her lap sittings were, how do you say it; very fulfilling.
For Sammy
and I, the night finished in an amazing session on one of the beach loungers at
about 3am and only about 30 feet away from 2 of the remaining couples.
Through Saturday when some of the group started to leave, I don't think anyone
acted overly embarrassed or regretful over the Thursday night activities, but
nobody really pushed the conversation or action towards a repeat performance
either.
The funniest thing about the whole thing may have happened
Saturday night at dinner when one of the gals out of the four remaining couples
made some remark like "I'm sure glad that we aren't like 'those people' who
were in the huge swingers group”. Without missing a beat, her husband shot
back with something like... "Let me see, just the other night you got basically
fondled, fingered, ate out, s---ed and f---ed by aboud a dozen men and women
and your did the same to them. Now what is it exactly 'those people' do that
you don't like'?”
I think the bottom line is that we didn’t
go to Hedonism looking for what happened; in fact we were pretty defensive
about it. But for at least one evening we had a wonderful time with great
people, and with no strings or regrets. I think it all came about because there
was no pushing or pressure and it was just a bunch of folks exploring new
territory in a way they were comfortable with.
We’ll go back for
sure, stay in touch with our new friends and hope some or all can join us next
time. However, we won’t be looking to duplicate the experience or try to
push our boundaries further. If it happens it happens, but if it doesn’t
that’s great too.
We think this resort has something for
everybody... as much or little as you want that to be. |

We had a great time at Hedo III. Wish we
stayed 4 nights instead of 3. Room and service was great. Only down side ! They
cleaned the pool during the day. As a result! no one was allowed in the pool.
GLB was very nice but we wish we were on the nude side. The walk over
was not bad but the prude side appeared to be dead. Service was very slow! It
was hard to get a drink or food delivered. It rained one day so we got a coupon
for a free night on our next trip. Is this ticket good only at GLB or cab we
use it at Hedo III?
Overall we had a great time. Weather was perfect
except for 1 day. Food was very good and we learned some new drinks. We did
meet a group of people and we are now trying to form a group trip. Will let you
know if this happens. Right now it looks like New Years or next
May. |

Our trip started out scheduled with Air
Jamaica at 6:30am on Friday. When we arrived at the airport, we were informed
that our flight had been cancelled even though we had called the flight info
line for AJ before we left the house at 2:30am and it was still listed as
leaving on time. After a brief wait, we were told we were rescheduled with
Northwest Air and leaving only 10 minutes later, however, with a layover in
Memphis and our arrival would be 2 hours later than originally scheduled. We
subsequently found out, others were not so fortunate and had been told they had
to wait all day until 7pm for their flight and one couple had been told they
had to wait until Saturday but were going to be put up in a hotel overnight!
Our return flight home worked out well for us, being informed by H 3
the day before of a 3 hour delay. The flight was actually 3 hours late, but we
remained on a non-stop flight with AJ that was only about half full. AJ is
still doing the check out at the resort and according to the AJ rep is only
doing so at the Superclubs resorts now, with no immediate plans to stop in the
future, but that is not guaranteed.
Customs lines were not as bad as
we had been hearing. Although the line was extremely long, there were plenty of
reps checking people in and we were through that line in about 35 minutes.
Travel from the airport was uneventful, and the usual fun making it to
the resort in 1 hours. Check in was simple and our rooms were ready upon
arrival, which was about 4pm. However, there were a few problems with rooms
being ready for guests throughout the weekend. Some were waiting past the 3pm
deadline, but of greater concern was being given an assigned room number in the
morning and that the room was ready, then later when our guests arrived,
finding that they were given a different room that was not ready. We managed to
get everyone settled in their room of choice and with minimal delays, everyone
seemed happy.
Everyone was extremely nice and helpful in
administration! Garfield, Paulette, Jerome, Adriane are just great people and
very pleasant to work with. Mr. Levee was not around most of the week, though
we had the opportunity to talk with him on our last day there and thank him for
our stay and for the trip prize giveaway.
We had a wonderful cocktail
party on Saturday with a few cold appetizers, and about 24 guests showed up for
that.
Monday's party on the Scotch Bonnet was fantastic! Garfield and
Adriane both came up along with Nick the EC leader and we had music and a
superb array of hot and cold appetizers. The web mistress for Hedonism1.com
came up and we invited her to say a few words to the crowd to promote their
forum. Also, Juli Ashton came to our party and said a few words and invited
people to join any excursions with her group if they were so inclined.
The drawing for the 3 day trip went over very well and the couple who won was
very excited to come back with us next year. There was a problem with the date
deadline on the voucher however, so Garfield is taking care of a new one he
will forward to us and then we will send on to this new couple. We also
purchased and gave out a Hedo 3 drink cooler and beach bag as consolation
prizes for the drawing and gave out Hershey's chocolate bars with a Thank you
from Jim and Mary with Spring Break wrapper made to cover them.
We
took a group of about 12 to Dunns Falls on Tuesday and they loved that
– none had been to see it before.
We also arranged
with Spike to give our group of ladies private pole dancing lessons in the
disco on Monday afternoon. He showed us how to try the more complex moves of
climbing the pole and though it was difficult for most of us, it was fun trying
and having the privacy to do so without the disco being full at night. Later in
the week, the Webmistress gave us another pole dancing lesson with some simpler
floor moves. Both sessions were a big hit with the ladies (and their guys who
watched) and they had a great time and got some great pictures to take home!
This was a very cohesive group for the week. People hit it off well,
though they also felt good about branching out and making more friends as the
week went on. Just what we wanted to see them do! They hung out together often,
but did not necessarily feel they had to be together all the time. It helped
too that the resort was at about 80% capacity and everyone was very friendly
and having a wild time all week. Security was around, but didn't interfere with
any fun even during the daytime hours!
Rooms were fine though there
seemed to be some ant problems in a few of the rooms, which was remedied easily
when sprayed. A/C was running poorly in the Johnson's room, but they declined
the offer to change rooms.
The Johnsons also renewed their vows at the
resort on Saturday, asking Jim and I to be witnesses. The resort did a very
nice job with the ceremony.
The Sonke's arrived on Friday and got to
meet with some of our group, but most were leaving on Saturday. As I previously
told you, we were unable to hook up with the Gasaways all week and Ravin Willis
arrived on Sunday and spent most of her first day and early evening with us.
She visited on and off with us over the next couple of days, but had made
several friends and seemed in good hands by the time we left with a room mate
she hit it off well with a female this time! J Unfortunately, while they were
friendly, we didn't have the opportunity to build up this group as much as we
had the Spring Breakers and in fact, the whole mood of the resort seemed much
quieter with a lower capacity during the week starting May 1st.
One
last note. Jim and I both got sick while we were there with a respiratory virus
of some sort. By late on Wednesday I had to receive a breathing treatment at
the nurse's station (I have a history of asthma) and we both had fever and
chills for one night and congestion for the next few days. We knew of at least
3 others who came down with similar symptoms during that week so something was
going around. The only other guest in our group who caught it was Wendy
Huelsman, who was still sick when they flew home on Saturday. |

First time back to Hedo III in 4 years. The
crowd was sedate (except for late night hot tub). I was dismayed (is III going
the way II was before renovations?) Buildings need painted, windows not
working, Quad doors not latching. Rooms needs updating (In our room: dresser
handles were missing/broken, NO HOT WATER first night, (not just our room), 2
singles bed push together, (no way to keep together) one mattress well used, AC
would barely keep room cool with no way to regulate (it wasn’t that hot
during the day)), Hot tub in Quad out of service, Both steam room out of order,
one sauna out of order. The quality of food went down. On the positive side the
staff was great as usual and cleanliness OK. I am not planning to go back until
I read some changes are made!
Editors Note: As you
can see we post what we hear about the resorts... good or bad. We take comments
like these seriously and bring them to the attention of not only the resort
management but SuperClubs senior management as well. (We do NOT identify the
person making the submission to resort staff) Hedo III is a great resort, but
like any resort, can experience "difficulties" from time to time that their
management needs to know of. Thanks Gary |

I had a wonderful time at HedIII. I have
told everyone that will listen that you have not lived until you have been to
HEDO III, in Jamaica. I will be back very soon..... |

| Hedo3girl - July 2004 |

We've been to Jamaica many many times. I
guess you can say we are SuperClub VIP's, as we've been to Lido Negril, Lido
Braco, HD2 and HD3, even Boscobel with out kids lol.
We were not that
impressed with HD2 when we went in 2000. Seemed like the crowd was a bit older,
and much more of a Pro-swinger mind set. No one really seemed to care much
about anything else the resort had to offer, except the nude "action" at the
nude pool. Don't get me wrong, we enjoy the "action" just as much as the next
couple, but not 24/7 in your face.
We then decided to try HD3 and it
did in fact offer more of a resort feel, and many more family swinger type
people. Those people that take advantage of situations when they come, but
don't seem to make it a "lifestyle", to us, a much more comfortable vacation.
The staff is great. We've been back 7 times since, and it's nice to
see the same staff. We communicate with some very regularly by phone, and we
often send "care packages" to those at the resort. Those little gifts go a long
way. lol.
Food id OK, with the Italian and Japanese Rest being far
better than the buffet (go figure lol). Rooms were pretty nice as well. We
always stay in room 717, which is a suite on the lower level. Room is a little
bigger, fully stocked bar, etc, and a nice lounging area. very nice for
entertaining guests.
I would also suggest going on Air Jamaica. Check
it out, as sometimes they offer some pretty inviting 1st class rates. For about
$250.00 more per person, you get a superior seat, superior meal, a great 1st
class lounge to relax in both airports, and express chick in. FAR worth the
money.
No matter what, if you go with an open mind, you will have fun.
We have met MANY friends while at HD3 and keep in touch very regularly. Its a
vacation that's well worth the investment.
I just wish there was a HD3
in the states. If we had the $$$$ we would open HD4 in New York somewhere. ANY
INVESTORS??? |

My wife and I had the good fortune to visit
Sunset Waters in Curacao in 2002 on a vacation through Castaways Travel. We had
a wonderful time there, highlighted by meeting some terrific folks with whom we
formed a small group. That same group followed up the following year by
visiting the El Dorado and Hidden Beach Resorts in Mexico, again through
Castaways. While both Curacao and Mexico were wonderful vacations, we feel that
this year's trip to Hedonism 3 was really something extra special. Our group
expands each time and we are really looking forward to next year. Solid,
long-lasting friendships are made on these trips. For those of you who haven't
been, Hedo 3 is an experience of a lifetime. We have now been to each of the
Hedos three times and can honestly say that we have never had anything other
than a ball. The experience of Castaways at arranging these trips is invaluable
and one can be guaranteed a trouble-free vacation.
We could go on and
on about the great times we had at Hedo 3 this year but space does not permit
us to do so. All we can say is that we have the most wonderful memories of a
memorable trip; one to be repeated as soon as possible. Those thinking of a
trip to Hedo 3 should just "do it"; you will have the vacation of a lifetime
with no regrets whatsoever. We would be be happy to answer any questions anyone
may have about Hedo 3 or our trip next year in May. Just email us at

We have been to other superclubs so we knew
what to expect as for as service,food and booze.We used Air Jamaica.First time
to use AJ.Will use them anytime to jamaica as long as they keep their rates in
check.They have a desk at hedo 3 that from 10:45 to 11:45 you can check bags
and get boarding pass, this is SO much better than doing it at the airport hope
they always offer this service.Did our bags make it home you bet we even
checked a 4 foot tall wooden carved mermaid that I knew we would never see
again yep she made the trip.Also our AJ plane home was no where to be
found,that day AJ had 5 planes with problems. So instead of having us wait
forever or stay another day they had a charter plane take us home,left on
time,got home on time so they get a big thumbs up from us.
Our first
time to Hedo 2 it was ok, rooms are dated but clean,AC worked great,shower
worked great.All in all resort was fine..Got to drink down many Delroy specials
um-um good.I liked the diving at hedo 2 alot, Negril seems to have better
reefs,that would be reefs under water where there is marine life not the reefs
you smoke just to clear that up.I read reports and various rants on the message
boards about hedo 2,after going there I can say nice place, would go
again.
Hedo 2 gave us 4 time picks to take the bus to hedo 3, which I
thought was cool. We took the 10am bus to the airport. Once at the airport went
to superclub desk gave them our name, then we waited maybe 20 minutes then on
another bus to hedo 3, total trip time from h2 to h3 - 3.5 hours.
Check
in at hedo 3 was fast thanks to Castaways travel they had all our paper work
filled in, all we had to was sign it and off to our room in the quad area .Last
year we were at hedo 3 in May, had a nude pool room got a free upgrade from
Castaways travel or we would have been in the quad area again. The quad area
last year was a ghost town since no group was there.This year the quad are was
great full of beautiful, hot sexual people all day and night, gave the place a
special buzz.
We spent most of our time in the quad went to the nude
pool once it was the same as always. We did go off property to the falls for
$25.00 bucks it was money well spent. Next time will do the raft trip. Best to
take the early boat as the afternoon is choppy water and not as clear. We plan
on going to Hedo 3 next year when the same group goes as we feel this is the
best time to go, will also go to Grand Lido Braco for a couple of days after
Hedo 3. Braco is the best property they have, huge beaches and nude pool. Just
a fine place to end your trip and only a few minutes from hedo 3.
Only
down side of the hedo 3 quad take over is a dirty little secret that I have to
expose. See attached photo.It is a sad site to see them scared and alone
huddled together.How can you just leave them like that? <grin>
Side comments:
Food? Both places ok, if you want better make
reservations to their special restaurants or quit crying about the food.It is
Hedonism not Julia Childs place.
Booze? Brand names as much as you want
when you want it.They could save everyone some time and have redstripe on tap
around the resorts so we can get it to go.They had this set up at breezes
bahamas.
Rooms? Clean, Beds were fine, Ac worked well and plenty of hot
shower water. It is not like your living there. Every thing was O-tay!
People? What a blast! |
