What is the difference between Hedonism II and Desire Resort?

Hedonism II in Negril, Jamaica, is an adults-only, all-inclusive resort whose own tagline reads "Adults Only, Clothing Optional & Lifestyle Friendly", with a minimum guest age of 18. It has a clothing-optional side, where swimwear is allowed, and an au naturel side, where nudity is expected; indoor venues such as the restaurants and the lobby expect cover-ups. It is open to couples and singles alike, which sets it apart from couples-only properties, and its programme includes nightly theme parties.

Desire Resorts (Puerto Morelos, Mexico) runs two properties, Desire Riviera Maya and Desire Pearl, and both are couples-only with a minimum age of 21 — no singles of any gender. Its own FAQ says "au naturel" means clothing-optional in designated areas, such as the pools, the beach and the Jacuzzi Lounge; clothing is required in the restaurants, the lobby and the disco.

Temptation Cancún Resort is an adults-only (21+), all-inclusive party resort where tops are optional in designated zones such as the main pool and the beach. Its own rules prohibit full nudity anywhere on the property, so it is not a clothing-optional or au naturel resort, and it has no playrooms.

The practical choice between these properties depends on what kind of trip you want: Desire if you want a couples-only stay, Hedonism II if you are travelling single or want to choose between a clothing-optional side and a nude side, and Temptation Cancún if you want an adults-only party resort without full nudity. Read each resort's own house rules before you book.

For booking any of these resorts as part of a lifestyle group, use the resort's own site or a lifestyle-specialist agent to see which organised group trips are scheduled at each property. Bare Getaways is planned as JoinTheSwing's travel arm. Group trips are significantly more social than independent bookings because the guest list is assembled and reviewed by the organiser before arrival.
