what is the best night for a pass at this place? has anyone been there before?
I would say Friday night when they have the grilled lobster at the buffet.
I would venture a guess based on your previous posts and questions that grilled lobster is the LEAST reason you want to go there! :pQuote:

hahahaha right you are!!!!
There are groups of some sort there almost every week. I stick to my original answer.
I answered the question the way it was worded.
That was Funny...Go to the Hedo site,look at the events board. You may want the lingerie night,bonfire night,party at the nude pool etc...Quote:

I think what he is looking for is some "fantasy" and not a meal..... I could be wrong but don't think so.

question::>> the Hedo staff (e.g., waitresses, bartenders, waiters, lifeguards, housekeepers, etc) ~~~ are they ever nude, too..??..
Nudity is allowed only on the nude beach area. You must be clothed anywhere else. Of course the staff is not nude. I love how many misconceptions there are about Hedo from people that have never been there.
Hey,the lobster is naked too,right?
2-4-1 nude lobster deals....
It is a very fun thing to go do for an evening.
**** oh s***, mr Peabody we are getting in the way back machine for a KIDRICK flashback... Hedo II 2004***
About 10 years ago , curiosity for Hedo and magic tea finally got the best of us. So decided to combine the two into one easy to understand experience.. Why wouldn't we? Stopped by Tedd's to let this artisan prime us for battle before venturing into the enclave of sublime and absurd. What a scene. Ever seen "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas?" ( trouble at the front desk scene).... That was US!! Mustered all of our collective brain cell to navigate the check in process.. Doooough boouoy... Two if by tea indeed.
Cut to finally walking in... It was like a lightning laser show in sloooooowww mooooootion. Voodoo by Godsmack is playing. The PERFECT song for the place and time. I felt like Jim Morrison walking around the Warhol party ( yes my life boils down to movie clips)...
Fascinating characters abound in every part of the resort. Listened to the most beautiful rendition of Ave Maria I have ever heard by some gorgeous Italian lady who was a Hedo II guest in the piano bar. I mean this woman was Sophia Loren meets Penelope Cruz beautiful, matched only by a voice of silken glass.
Thirsty and eager to continue the circuit we happened upon a pile of humanity playing a game of human petting zoo, oblivious to our presence. I wasn't sure who was winning , or what the scoring system was. Had to smile as this place was living up to the legend. I am no voyeur, nor a prude so simply chalked it up to just another thing in a mounting list of things that I can't unsee and pressed on in pursuit of more spectator appropriate endeavors.
Watching people in their element with no regard for what others think is one of my favorite things about tropical vacations. It is when we all are at our best I truly believe. LET YOUR FREAK FLAG FLY I say!!! It was indeed a flag fest from many nations all marching to their own tune. I'll do my thing, they'll do theirs and you do yours. I love that!
DJ let me rock my iPod at the disco and turned the place inside out with some BeeGees and Donna Summer tunes. One couple looked like they had been freeze dried in 1977 and reanimated for that very occasion with requisite hers platform shoes and his hang glider collar. Their pre trip planning may have went something like this: "Cargo shorts...CHECK.. Bathing suits...CHECK... Passports .CHECK. Okay we are set...Whoaaa! not so fast, where are the platform shoes and huge collared shirt? Good catch honey, you know are gonna NEED those!" ( seriously who puts THAT on their packing list? RANDY & SHARONA DID and all were better off for it).. They were busting moves that would make Travolta blush! I do wonder what else may have been in their luggage, and the fun that the newly post-911 over reaching, over zealous airline security must have had with plundering their suitcases determining levels terrorist intent with each non traditional item they lustfully tossed.
A tv crew was there with no less than 20 of the most photo ready models you could imagine. They were becoming more scantily clad as the night gave way to early morning... It was truly unreal to be amidst the players in this fantasy theatre.
Around 3am we had had our fill and time to retire back to the realities of life of the Beach House Villas and alternative to the alternative lifestyle... We laughed for several more hours about what we'd seen or thought we'd seen.
I have never been back to HEDO in my return trips. I fear they could never live up to the perfect storm in the Spring of 04. I do still sit back and smile fondly and glad we opted to take a peek into another world if only for one glorious night pass.
Hedo II is Willys chocolate factory if the Oompa Loompas made sexy people and lucid hallucinations instead of candy.
Not sure what day it was.. I guess I never thought to ask anyone ;-). I want to say it was Saturday. My guess is it could be just about any typical night there.
Go. Enjoy. Create your own adventure there. Worth a visit to experience a lot of eclectic and fun loving people.
It will most certainly make for a great chapter in your Negril odyssey if you have a vague notion of what is in store.
Hoist that freak flag, anchors aweigh...
Saw your dates on another thread and you have hit the Hedo lottery!! Monday night the 17th, St. Patty's Day, there is a couple of groups that will be there and are throwing a huge outdoor party starting at 10:30pm. There will be a DJ from Vegas, a Martini Bar and Guinness available along with the normal "all you can drink" at the bars. Make sure to wear green...or you might get pinched!Quote:

We were at Hedo a couple of weeks ago. As greggandkelly63 wrote: “there are a lot of misconceptions about hedo”. A big one is: “it’s a lifestylers resort”. While we were there we didn’t witness any orgies or multi-player sex games. Yes there were some displays of public affection and some action in the hot tub after 10pm, but really nothing over the top. The prude side is now listed as clothing optional and of course the nude beach and pool is where most people hang out (pun intended).
The theme nights are a lot of fun and range from seeing/wearing wickedly sexy clothing to just casual wear. A lot of people go all out on these nights and it’s a lot of fun to see, and participate in. The entertainment is always good, there are games every day and the piano bar is the place to be between 9pm and 11pm. There are multiple music venues every night from the piano bar, entertainment on stage, the Disco and beach parties. They have bands and DJ’s playing until 1 or 2am every morning.
Hedo is a sexually charged environment but surprisingly IMO not a lot of sex happening out in the open. It’s the greatest place to go if you want to party naked all day (and night if you choose).” If you like licking rum cream off a favourite body part, you’ll love hedo”. Every day there are multiple events going on and you’re hard pressed not to find a bar within stumbling distance.
You meet all kinds of likeminded people from labourers to lawyers and a lot of times you don’t know or care what people do for a living. Nudity has an incredible way of levelling the social arena. Yeah there are all shapes and sizes there, but that’s what makes the place so interesting and fun! Average age when we were there would be between 40 and 60.
We walked through Sandals resort, we saw very few smiles on people’s faces, it was like the place shut down at 9 o’clock at night. “BORING”…
For us other than staying down in Negril we wouldn’t stay any other place other than at Hedo while in Negril.
boardies-KidRick & Jamaidian ~~~ thank you thank you THANK YOU..!!.
great info, insight, etc etc.
after-YEARS on this board, for-me, you-2 are the FIRST to *enlighten* me about that place.
THANKS...!!!..
Jamadian has a great description of what Hedo is all about...the misconceptions are hysterical sometimes. We took the Love Bus two years ago and were the first ones picked up at Hedo. As other people got on the bus they saw our Hedo shirts or bags and wouldn't even look at us at first let alone talk to us and the whispers started. Thank god for alcohol as by the second bar one of them got the courage to talk to us and of course the first question was "What is Hedo really like". By the end of the crawl we were all fast friends and even a few wanted to come and visit for a day pass.Quote:

In many ways it is a "you had to be there" story. But I think this board is a great way to take us all along on many many different rides in that way. Thanks for the thanks.Quote:

The 2 times I went on a day pass to such places were because friends were staying there. I remember seeing all too many people who in general are fun loving but may just be the types who like predictable outcomes on vacation or tethered to such people. Not my deal, but also not my place to say that is wrong.
Hedo II is anything but predictable. Be open to see and do a lot, or just relax and take it all in. Bottom line is you will be free to be who you want to be there. For the great food, drink, entertainment and fun people all around it is well worth the price of admission. I can't speak on the topic of "best day" to go. As I said, it has been years since I was there, and others on this board have better and specific advice that best serves that question.
I may go back someday, but the beach and new untapped west side adventures tend to keep me "busy". Sure glad I did see it for myself. In a funny way it was both everything I thought it would be, but the people were anything but, if that makes sense. ( I think that is what Jamadian AND Face Down said in a far more eloquent way. )
We have enjoyed the pub crawl 3 times now. When people know you are starting at Hedo, the whispering starts. I laugh and consider it jealousy from people who aren't brave enough to try it.
I even hear comments on here about Hedo people. Let me just say my wife and I are probably more normal than many that post on here.
And no......We aren't swingers.
The misconceptions are sometimes reality. I hopped on the One Love Bus with a Hedo group and it was CRAZY to say the least. Now did that particular set of folks represent all things Hedo? Of course not, however if I had a list of misconceptions I could have checked off most of them.Quote:

Now my curiosity is perked up Booger... Bucking Bronco? Are those the people who are "My Little Pony" fettishists? ;) Is he related to "Stallion" or "Black Thunder" noted in another thread?
Sounds like you encountered some hard core "Hedo 4 Lifers"... Only conclusion to draw I suppose is unusual people dwell anywhere and everywhere.
Didn't notice a particular theme of the group. Bucking Bronco is how his girlfriend introduced him and his wife concurred.
i left before I had a chance to dig deeper(no pun intended)
Ahhh. Yes. Thanks for the clarification. A tip of the cap and a skidaddle on out of there would have been my play as well. Bet they are a hoot at PTA meetings :o
A trip to Tedd's and then to Hedo......that's awesome.
It was SandTChi... it was. Its like the old saying goes " anything worth doing is worth doing right...after a trip to Tedd's" ;-)
Ted's a third generation tea brewer
Who was before his mother?Quote:

Tedds is on my bucket list (can't convince the wife to go though) and it's no fun alone...getting naked?...No...Bad trip :)...leaving that one out of the bucket :)
Isn't Tedds connected/related to Miss Browns ?
Folks who have never been on a nude beach or at Hedo think everyone there has a body like a Greek God and are intimidated prior,,,when they get there they see it's mostly the opposite.Naked people showing all their imperfect bodies and Loving it??? It gives you confidence actually,fun too. Ever see two naked folks get into a fight?Never because all our inhibitions are Out.
My first time ever at Hedo (5 times) we were on the prude side beach,,,everytime I looked down to the nude side beach folks were body painting,laughing,dancing naked on the beach???? I say,,,well we gotta try it....We stroll down to the nude side and Im looking "Straight ahead" walking like I own the jungle,,,don't look below the gals head,dont look below the sexy nude gals head....
The nude Vets know I'm a rookie due to my white bunny tail Azz that has never seen the sun.
We stretch out Slowwly on two chairs,,O/K were cool,were here,were nude,get used to it. So after 5 minutes I tell my wife,,hey honey why don't you go to that nude bar (the old small one) and rassle us up 2 Dirty Bananas girl.....
She is"NO WAY" you're going,not me....I try to wait her out but that lasted about 5 minutes,,,so I walk to the bar( look straight/look straight,,,don't wake up Fred Junior) I get to the bar order my drinks and sure Enuf....
The Gorgeous naked girl with Huge Ta Tas stand next to me and asked me something,,I forget because now I'm looking at the TOP of her head,,,do NOT look down?????? Gotta go,see ya and Fast walk back to the chair??? Whew? Then into the water waist high to cool down?
Next Hedo story about using My room key in the Wrong door and it open and we go in?
LOL Fred's stories are the best!
Jamadian's description is spot on. Went there back in 09 with my girlfriend at the time who liked to suntan nude....Like Booger, once I heard about the place I figured it's a bucket list kind of thing......We happened to be there the same time as a "lifestyle" group that had pretty much the whole resort booked up.....While we did get propositioned a few times it wasn't constant and once we declined they seemed to leave us alone with no pressure and stuck to their own group of people for their extracurricular activities. And no, we didn't go there and partake in those things, but no doubt if we wanted to we could of....Would I go back? Probably not....I'm cool tanning in my shorts and once you go the intrigue is gone. Did I have a blast and glad I tried it out? Of course....it was a non stop party! But isn't all of Negril that way too, if you want it to be?? I prefer to be clothed most the time is all....lol. Skip, based on your posts on the board so far I would think Hedo is exactly what you are looking for!! I say go for it...
Ha ha, Fred! What a hoot!!! Looking forward to the room key story.
The list is very small of the people I want to see and been seen by naked. Several of the places we stay afford us private space if we so desire. But hanging out in a group holds no appeal for me. But if it floats your boat, enjoy!
We stayed at Hedo (twice) in '94 ~ the 1st time we had a blast. Met a lot of fun folks (nude side) & had a great time. Decided to go back 6 months later. Not so much fun, an "edgier" atmosphere throughout the whole property. Glad we had the Hedo experience, but once was enough.
We have partied at Hedo 10 or 11 times,always have an awesome time but that is because we don't really give a rats ass what anyone thinks about our chubby asses.We go there for the party atmosphere and to enjoy each others smiles and laughs.We renewed our wedding vows on the point of the nude beach for our 30th anniversary 5 years ago,we were clothed but had a great group of friends, who we met at Hedo in previous years, taking pictures for us,some in clothes and some not.It is a fun place to go but we have started to like more wandering around Negril and hitting all the many little jewels of bars and restaurants so we may not go back to Hedo.Negril has so many awesome places to visit and so many great people and we actually had more fun partying this past year when we stayed cliff side after our Hedo stay.
I was on that same bus with Booger,but for the entire trip. They were indeed a group of lifestylers from Canada. I won't go into detail about that day as it's been reiterated on these pages before and is easily found. I will say that I agree 100% with Booger that we all saw things we wish we could unsee. I could see how if you're staying at Hedo when a large group like that is there, the atmosphere could be completely different than without them.
On a previous trip, we had the pleasure of staying in the Issa Villa, which is a 3BR on a quiet stretch of the beach and, at least at the time, was owned by the same people as Hedo. When we booked it, we were unaware of the perk that we could utilize the facilities at Hedo if we wished, at least during the day. We could call the sports activity number there and they would send a speed boat across the bay to pick us up. Of course once we were dropped off, it's an all-inclusive so we could do as we please.
We weren't looking to strip down, so we didn't venture into the nude only side, but there were 20 or so very well endowed women that were shooting a catalog for a strip club chain based in Tampa, as we found out later. We did go sailing and snorkeling there, and most of the women did not bother to bring an entire swimsuit.
The combination of Tedd's and a night pass could indeed turn out to be a strange and interesting time. Not my cup of tea (pun intended).
How much is a cup of tea at Ted's?
Lol...I don't remember!Quote:
