Description:
Stop the world - step off into serendipity. Life moves at a faster tempo here. Music seems more tuneful, laughter more joyous. New friendships sparkle to life in a moment. There is excitement in the air. Tucked away on Jamaicas beautiful North Coast, Hedonism III enters the millennium with everything that made Hedonism II the worlds most notorious resort - and more Youll find swim-up rooms. A Roman tub in every room. A see-through slide that snakes through our disco. At Hedonism III, youll find that famous uninhibited spirit where just about anything goes. Receive the sensuous joy of soaking up sun as the tan lines disappear, the silky feel of skin fresh from a dip in the sea, the pool or the Jacuzzi, with the days most serious decision being which of the restaurants to choose for dinner, after comparison shopping all the bars. Its easy to spot a Hedonism vacationer look for somebody with a gleam in the eye, a smile on the lips, suntanned all over. By day, are there enough hours to sample everything Look to the sea of course - challenge the deep with sail or skis - or don snorkel and mask to meet the fish on the reef. Tennis, sailing, windsurfing or learning to swing on a high trapeze, you name it. After dark - more decisions. Join in a sing along around the piano bar, or dress up in a toga /which reveals more than it conceals/ to become part of the floorshow. The to do list long Learn the latest dance moves to intoxicating Reggae beats, rub suntan lotion on the shoulders of a stranger, and steal away with somebody nice to a shaded hammock... The story couldnt stop there. Hedonism III opened its doors - with all the sports you want to tackle and an entertainment program that never sleeps. Surprises like when somebody bikini-clad swoops down the water slide, which curves right through the disco... Rejuvenate mind and body, free spirit and soul, stroll hand-in-hand along the surf at dawn, leaving footprints in the sand to promise youll return. If there are any rules at a Hedonism resort, they are these eat the kind of food you dream about on a diet, leave inhibitions on the doorstep - and never, ever, wonder how things are going back at the office.

This was our best vacation. As we were waiting to check in the hotel greeter offered to bring us a drink. Before we were checked in the beverage had arrived. The bell man gave us a brief tour and escourted us to our room. The hotel guests will be the best and friendliest people you will ever meet. After the first day you will know a lot of them. It will seem as though you have known them forever. A lot of entertainment and activities. Many water sports are included. The buffet was ok. The restaurants were good. Dont forget to make reservations at both restaurants. Pastafari was the best. The Reggae Cafe has the quickest service I ever experienced in Jamaica. Friendly staff. Friendly bartenders that know your name and drink at the end of the first hour and will remember for the rest of the trip. Bring soap and shampoo. The hotel has a two in one which does not lather. If you plan to soak in the jacuzzi bring an insect repellent. There are crabs that walk around the resort. I did not go on any tours so I cant help you there. There really is no need to leave the resort. So have fun, but dont drink too much.

Stayed as couple. We had a great time. Never did anything like this before. Staff was friendly and tried to get everyone involved even when the weather didn't cooperate. Best advice: Take your clothes off and have a good time. Downfall: if you don't want to see excessive public "affection" do not go here. You'll see more then you would ever imagine. You will never have an experience like this, try it! For * bucks and all the food and drinks you can have you pretty much pay your bar bill for the week. Best time I've had in years. Can't wait to go back!

My husband and I just returned from Hedo III. Without a doubt, this was the best vacation we've ever taken. It was the most exciting, relaxing, fun and romantic we've had in a long time. We rekindled our relationship beyond anything we ever expected and plan to make Hedo III a yearly vacation going forward.

We just visited the first week of June. Hardly anyone was at the resort. Brought a whole suitcase of costumes for nightly entertainment and barely anyone dressed up. Entertainment staff did not do hardly any of the daytime activities that was listed on the itinerary. The aerobics instructor never showed up. On the upside we did meet some nice people. Oh and the piano bar sucked! Compared to our last visit this one was very low key. We also landed at the airport at 1:00 and got to the resort at 4:15 after switching buses 3 different times. Took way to long to get there. Relaxing time yes party no. Don't go for a party unless you have more occupancy. And [...] in Guest relations could use a friendly reminder on customer relations and being polite.

We have heard that people always prefer the first Hedo that they have been to and it holds true for us. We have been to H2 three times and loved it. We did love our time at H3 but the grounds are MUCH smaller than 2, less beach, less crowded. The guests were great at both and peeps that go to Hedo are always a fun friendly bunch. We always make friends that we keep in touch with. Now, the security is much less freindly at H3. They are rule mongers. At H2 it is not the end of the world if you wear your bikini bottoms on the nude side (though they most likely will ask you to cover up on the prude side). At 3 the guards make a big scene about it while the guests don't seem to mind at all. Both have naked waterslides which are always a blast!I prefer H2 all around and will not go back to 3 even though the rooms are slightly nicer at 3 than 2. Seriously though if you are going to go to Hedo I don't think the rooms are the big draw. The staff for the most part are wonderful. However at H2 the staff have all been there a while and service and attitude are very consistent from one staff member to another, while it is not quite as consistent at 3.

I had to change rooms 3 times in one week due to problems- the last room I was in had no hot water. I just gave up- didn't want to pack everything up again! Never got a tour of property when I checked in-had to figure everything out on my own. If you have a problem with your room DO NOT count on the front desk to correct it- go directly to Maintenence or housekeeping, or whatever. The front desk staff are the only employees at the resort that are not friendly or helpful! The staff do a great job keeping everything clean. Food and drinks were good-and the staff very friendly. the beds are not very comfortable, but I guess you won't notice if you drink enough alcohol! Ladies, bring your own hairdryer-theirs suck! Overall I had a great time but that was due more to the people I met than the resort itself.

This was our first time to Jamaica and to this resort. We had such a good time and met so many nice people, we are planning to go back again the same time next year. Your vacation at this resort will be as wild as you make it. They have a nude pool for those who like to sunbath nude and they have a prude pool where you will find everyone wears a bathing suit.

This was our second time at Hedo. We had a great time, like last year. You always meet nice people and staff is great/fun. There are two things I would like to see some improvements, food is below average and some pools are not very clean. Resort was clean and room was nice. Even we don't like food and some pools are 'out of control' ..me and my husband keep going back. We absolutely loved it. Can't wait next trip!!!

I just returned home from my second visit to Hedo 3 and i had a blast!! It was even better than last year! The service was incredible and the staff was always very helpful. Check in was so smooth and very professional. The food was plentiful and the drinks never stopped! My room was just what i asked for and was cleaned daily. The bed was very comfortable and I got plenty of rest. The entertainment was so much fun. I really enjoyed the night we had dinner on the beach and were treated to a steel drum band! They were really a very talented group of young people! I am already looking forward to my third trip to Hedo. I just wish it would get here sooner..haha. I will alway remember the many friend i made there and the staff that go out of their way to serve you. They are a remarkable group of people!

This resort is basically everything it is billed to be. The fact that they cater to a certain type of vacation, with little competition, means that they can do things that other resorts would never get away with. Ourselves and approximately 20 other couples were forced to stay at another resort (Breezes) our first night due to overbooking at Hedonism. Apparently this is an EXTREMELY COMMON practice. They are polite, but mostly unapologetic. We called earlier in the week to confirm our reservation, and were told there would be no problems. They obviously mislead people. This is a terrible practice, and booking services such as Orbitz should inform their customers. We were offered that night free or a future 2-night free voucher. We opted for one night free and have not yet received our money back. This is completely unacceptable. Also, our room air conditioner only blew room-temperature air, and nobody would ever fix it despite multiple complaints. Other than that, this is a fun resort with friendly staff, and fun activities.

[...]Staff is amazing, resort needs repairs, food was ok. Not much entertainment unless you do the nude beach. Still don't no why they call the one side prude beach since 75% of people where nude on prude beach.

What a great time. I went by myself, and most of the people there are couples so if you go alone you will need to work a little harder to meet people, but not much. Everyone is there to have a good time and the staff seems dedicated to make sure you do just that. The booze never stops flowing and the clothes always seem to be falling off. The organized events were great adult fun and don't worry about showing up on youtube, the staff security is always on the lookout for people video taping and taking pictures in places they are not supposed to be.

staff is excellent except lobby staff who seem disinterested and even rude. rest of the staff is A plus. rooms are not the nicest ^^^ at best but you are paying for the atmosphere - au naturel swinging lifestylers. food and drink are good - top shelf drinks - japanese, italian and buffet restaurants.

"Whatever happens at Hedo, stays at Hedo!!!" Motivated staff. Slide thru the club. DO the jacuzzi with the see thru glass & at the quad at nite. Get the bartender's "special." Theme nites -- toga, anyone ?!? Make early reservations for fine dining. don't forget Karoke. Must hit the nude beach at least once.

We had a great time! That's our third visit to Hedo and even got married there 7 years ago. The resort is well maintained and provides all the elements for a wild vacation. Was also happy to see familiar faces there! The weather was fantastic. The room was made most morning while we had breakfast, they are on the ball... The crowd was pretty out there too. Crazy crazy crazy! The resort is not the 5 diamonds place but provides every elements needed. The spa and massages are a good deal too and was sooo nice! If you are the shy type, stay away...I would not recommend the place to single either!

Was hesitant to choose this hotel because of the wild "Hedo" preconcieved ideas but was wanting on adults only trip and couldn't beat the price for this resort. After being at the resort I can say that you can make this stay whatever you want it to be. You will see just about everything-so if that offends you then don't go. The beaches are clean, quiet and pretty much deserted on the Prude side. The pools offer more activity with a livelier group of people but felt comfortable just relaxing and reading a book at either the beach or the Quad pool. Would definitely recommend the hotel orientation so you know where to go or not to go on the grounds depending on what you are looking for. The resort offered some of the best "buffet" food that we have found in our travels as far as the main course goes. Mixed drinks seemed to have a better quality alcohol also; not bitter like alot of all inclusives.(This is my personal opinion of course!) The rooms were OK; even though ours overlooked the pool it still wasn't too loud unless you left the windows opened at night and even at that the hot tub crowd at 3 in the morning may seem loud but not loud enough to wake you if you were already asleep! The air conditioner did not work after the 4th day but maintenance did come to fix it shortly after we reported it but it quit working again by the next day; it was cool enough in the evenings that it wasn't a big deal and overall I felt that the staff did listen and tried to get any problems resolved. The only other small thing was the remote to the TV didn't work and the volume button was missing from the TV so you couldn't turn it down-not a huge deal since we were not there to watch much television. Water pressure was great, not always a lot of hot water but otherwise ok. Housekeeping did a great job with keeping rooms clean and plenty of towels and 75% of the time had room done before noon. Staff were all terrific; bartenders, groundsmen, housekeeping, etc.... all very friendly. Aft

My husband and I for our anniversary. We didn't know what to expect but it was better than we ever could have expected. It rained the whole week but who cared? It was the most relaxing vacation ever. It's one place you can definately pack light! The other guests were what made it so great. Go with an open mind and just enjoy!!!!!! We are already planning our next trip. (If it rains you get that day free on your next visit!)
