Product Description What Happens in Jamaica, Stays in Jamaica?
Except in this tell-all, cheeky guide to the world's naughtiest resort, Hedonism II.
Everyone returns from Hedonism II with at least one good story no one at home believes.
Is Hedonism II a retirement home for worn-out swingers? Is it a testosterone tour-de-force with too few eligible single women to clamor over? Is it a cult that sucks away all your vacation time? Well, the last one might be true.
Learn why Hedonism II has a 90% repeat guest rate--the highest of any Caribbean hotel--even though the facilities are tired, the food is mediocre, and the beach sand hurts your feet--if you are still standing after a week.
The Hedo myths:
Only young singles go to Hedonism II. People walk around naked everywhere. Open sex is rampant. Someone will try to steal your wife.
Every myth has its truth...but Hedonism II is 50% couples--and most guests are over 30, full nudity is only allowed on one beach, the hotel does not condone public sex (but it happens), and your wife--well, that's her choice. But at Hedo you will see what you've never seen before. And you might do it too.
Here are the truths and tips that will make your vacation to Hedonism II the most fun trip you'll ever take--again and again. FYI: The resort Hedonism II did not authorize this book; the book includes the good, bad and the ugly. Although the resort's owners tried to stop distribution of the 1st ed. of the book in federal court in 1998, the author enjoys Hedonism II as a vacation destination and continues to travel there regularly on her annual "Naked Truth Tour" that is not affiliated with the resort.
great know before you go book March 1, 2008 We are planning a trip in November 2008 to Hedo III and we are currently researching everything we can so we "know " what to expect. This book tells everything there is to know about the atmosphere, the people,the drinks, etc - It mainly talks about Hedo II but I imagine it is much the same- and it gives a great insight as to the kind of people we should expect to meet. Great reading and interesting pictures too. Definately worth the read before you go.
not updated to reflect hedo 3 January 18, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Even though the new addition states that it has been updated to include Hedo 3, there are only a few short paragraphs dedicated to it. The majority is about Hedo 2, to which I have never been. This book made Hedo 2 seem like it is old and dirty, and that the guests are an older and less physically fit sort than traditionally would go to Hedo 3. Perhaps this is true; but to me the author portrayed the resort as not very upscale which turned me off. (At this point I was very glad that I had made reservations to Hedo 3 instead.) Too much of the book is dedicated to showing Hedo 2 guests how to scare the folks at the nearby Sandals resort with various displays of nudity directed to the unsuspecting prudes. (Trust me, that's not what I would waste my time with when I'm at Hedo!) I have been to Hedo 3 with Wild Women Vacations, and I have to say that it was an incredible experience. After reading this book, I don't think I'd even try to go to Hedo 2 at all. It really turned me off. Don't waste your time with this book: go to Hedo 3!

This book reminds you of why you love Hedo April 16, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Ms. Santilli's book, The Naked Truth About Hedonism II, is a good cure for DIF (dreaded island fever or what you feel after returning home from the island).
The Naked Truth evokes the island and especially the resort of Hedo II. If you're a newbie, it's a must read to help get your feet wet. If you've been before, it's a wonderful reminder of why you love the resort ... plus you may read about or see some friends.
This is the must have book for those considering a visit to Hedonism II in Negril, Jamaica.

I have several friends that have been to Hedonism II (I haven't been there yet). They attest to the accuracy of the information in this book. It gives a lot of information that you would never find in a tourist review.
