Hedonism Resorts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hedonism II and Hedonism III are vacation resorts in Jamaica, operated by the company Superclubs. Hedonism II was opened in 1976 in Negril, Hedonism III followed in 1999 in Ocho Rios; there is no Hedonism I. Both resorts have areas reserved for naturism/nudism. They are well-known for the liberal sexual, drug, and alcohol attitudes of the guests. No children are allowed.
Public nudity is illegal in Jamaica, but the laws are not enforced (and may not apply) inside the private resort. A nude wedding of eight couples held in 2001 in Hedonism III caused protests by the government tourist office and radio talk show hosts, who called the event "improper and offensive."
The Hedonism resorts also host various nudist and swingers conventions, and the properties boast more repeat patrons than any other resort in the world [citation needed].
In 2005, the first three episodes of National Lampoon's Strip Poker were filmed in their entirety at Hedonism II, with the resort's decadent reputation and unusual cast of characters serving as the production's backdrop.
