Richard (Papa Richy) - December, 2001
This was my first trip to a Hedo resort. I went the 12/16-12/23 the
resort was pretty empty. There were many good things but the resort had
some issues.
The Good
I think I knew everyone staying at the resort (nude side), there was 20%
occupancy. I still had a blast. We made our own fun chilling at
the pool side and beach smoking a fatty that Neil rolled. The water
sports were great, sailing, scuba. I especially loved playing volleyball
with everyone that was cool, but what made my trip was the people. There
may have been a few of us but we became good friends and partied for 1000
people.
I want to say hi to Chuck, Diane, Will, Vin, Sherry, Neil, Iggy, Stephanie,
Rick, Sue (both), George, Suzie and Mike, David and danel (you still owe me a
show, I'll take the video). Hello, to everyone else that I meet, I
think I am still buzzing from the week.
Only part that was bad was when people were leaving not to many new people
came checked in to keep the crowd. So you really noticed at
activities. To the volley players after you left no one replaced you but the
first few days were great.
On a special note to Neil, Ash Lee and Mr. Hashy, thanks man, we will
party next year. I want the 6 inche by foot long rolled labeled Mr.
Sock is back. (P.S> to whomever borrowed Mr. Sock, hope he kept you
warm and thanks for putting back).
When we got there our first room stunk, so we were moved due to the ants and
lack of plumbing next to the hot tub. The move was great, we got good
sound effects from our neighbors, David and Danel, whom need to get a muffler
for the vibraters, they were super powered or something. They could use
them to break concrete, but its all good Man.
The Bad
As I said the resort had some issues. Mainly the service was bad,
according to repeat offenders, even bad for Hedo II. I tried to get my
friend a birthday cake, I couldn't even buy one (not even a cup cake for $20
bucks US). The construction was annoying. You had to walk around
the resort to get up top. However, they are giving two free nights for
people who ask for it because of the inconvenience. The new hibachi Japanese
restaurant is now open. Great food, try the shrimp. We ordered the
whole menu to try it all. The water slide looked almost complete. So on
Jamaican time look for it next summer. Other than that the weather was
ok the beach was average.
My biggest grip was not being able to get a 2am hamburger for my
friend on his birthday (I was there at 1:40am). "no burgers on
the resort at this time man." UGH that stunk trust me.
Just knowing how great the people are and how much fun we had with only 20%
capacity makes me want to come back when the place is truly alive. I
will be back hopefully in early December next year.
Overall
I like Hedo II, the people, and the party. I will be back and I hope
next to meet more friends.
Sincerely,
Papa Richy
