About Hedonism and Jamaica

Hedonism II is in Negril and is approximately one hour ride ride west from the Montego Bay airport.

Hedonism III was in Runaway but was closed in August 2010.
 There is no Hedo I in Jamaica - Hedo I is a concept...it is a state of mind...the "original paradise".

Getting there...
When you arrive, you'll look for the Superclubs Lounge after you get through customs. There you will be able to take the free shuttle to the resort. You can expect to make the obligatory stop for a restroom or cold drink at a local roadside stand. This is part of every trip from the airport, but you won't need to do this on your return trip when leaving.

If you want to get there faster, you can take a small plane from the airport for about $65 per person, one-way for Negril/Hedo II. This will get you to the resort in about 15 minutes air time and lands you just a couple blocks from Hedo where you take a taxi (that is included in the cost) over to the resort.

You can also contract with Tim Air to take a small plane shuttle over to Negril which will get you there in
approximately 15 minutes and will run about $120 per person.

The Jamaican National Motto is "Out of Many, One People" -
with descendants from people around the world, including Africa, Asia, Europe and the Middle East, mixing together to produce the Jamaican people of today.

Even though the island is only 146 miles long and up to 50 miles wide, travel is not quick and easy so it may take you three to four hours to travel from one end of the island to the other along the winding roads.

Travel...
Cars are available for rent if you are daring! Not only do they drive on the left side of the road, but Jamaicans drive fast and wild, with horns blaring and goats running out into the middle of the road! You're surest bet it is to hire a driver/cab. Ask at the resort and they will arrange a trustworthy driver and perhaps you can share a ride with others if you decide to venture off the resort.

The resorts...
Hedonism is known for being a wild and fun place itself, however, though you may be encouraged to join in the mischief, you will never be pushed into anything. If you prefer to lie back and relax, or just watch the antics from the sidelines, no one will try to force you to do otherwise.

Grab your towels and beach chairs early in the day. It's considered courteous to cover your chair or lounger with a towel and most people will respect your saved spot if you walk away. You may consider bringing some clips to hold your towel in place from the breeze!

Photography...

Yes, cameras are allowed, but only on the Prude side. If you want pictures on the nude side, you
should go early in the morning when the crew is cleaning and opening up and there
are no other guests there. They will usually allow you to take some pictures if you
ask nicely and no one else is around.

On occasion, you MIGHT get away with a picture or two during the daytime if you assure other people nearby that you are not including them or anyone else in the pictures...but that depends
on the atmosphere of the crowd and the mood of the security staff as there are
clearly posted signs on the nude side that state "no photography" - basically, it's against
"the rules" to take pictures on the nude side. Period.

Finally, realize that if you get involved in anything on stage or in the games and even in the disco,
 unless the EC staff specifically announce "no photography" you WILL be photographed.

Also there is a resort photographer who is around mostly in the evenings or for special daytime events.
The pictures taken by this photographer can be purchased by anyone else at the resort.
