Chad - May, 2009
Travel dates: May of 2009 (went
twice)
I went to Sea Mountain Inn with my new wife in 2009 and wanted
to share our experience there. Now keep in mind I had been
to Hedo II (5) times prior to going to SMI so I had experience
and something to compare this new resort to.
We live in LA so we hit the freeways and 1 hour and 40 mins
later we found ourselves pulling up to SMI in what is an
otherwise residential neighborhood. This at first throws
you off but you can can tell it's clearly the resort from
parking and the giant sign on the wall. When you get to
the front gate you'll find it locked but you push a button and
one of the staff will see who you are. (I think it's on
camera too). In a few moments a staff member came to let
us in and take us to the office.
Now the staff at SMI is what makes it great. They take
care of you and make you feel at home from the start. We
were handed drinks and filled out the sign in sheet. In
about 4 mins we were off to our beautiful room. The
rooms are VERY nice, no kidding. If Hedo II is a 5-6 (on a
scale of 1-10, then SMI has 8-9 rooms on that same scale.
Big beds, VERY clean and all the bedding/towels are high
quality. The room is Zen like. Big flat screen TV on
a mount in the corner of the room with a DVD player built in, a
mini fringe, and a very nice shower. Again, the rooms are
awesome. BTW, they give you a welcome package including
lube, condoms and a porn DVD, score! lol
Dewey is an owner at SMI, he's not only a nice guy but a
complete riot. I swear he's drinking Red Bull 24 hours a
day, the man never stops keeping the party alive and well.
Outside the room there is a nice pool and bubbling hot tub.
The resort itself is not huge, perhaps the size of the nude pool
at Hedo. Lot's of naked people engaging in open sex, there
are NO sex police at this place, that's for sure. It seems
a lot of the guests were there for the sex and sharing.
The pool was very busy during the day and the hot tub got busy
at night.
The music at the resort rocks, a nice mix of party tracks that
get you going. In the morning it's chill music till about
10am. There's also a disco room with stripper pole that
got it's share of use while we were there. Also a bed in
the disco got used more than a few times as we soaked away in
the hot tub.
Food: Snack foods are free to guests but it is snack food.
If you want a nice Hedo like meal, either order from anywhere or
go out. We went to a market prior to going where we got
drink and food to help us with our munchies. I'm
pretty sure there was a microwave in the room. If
not, I know the staff would warm up your snacks in theirs,
they're very nice.
Speaking of staff, unlike Hedo they will walk around either
topless OR naked, that's a switch. As they stroll around
you'll be offered drinks often as you lie there asking yourself
if you're in Jamaica or America.
Here's my ratings:
Staff - 10
Rooms - 10
Music - 10
Pools - 9
Food - 5 (snack food)
Party atmosphere - 10
Price/value - 8 (mostly sold out each weekend)
So as a summary, if you're looking for a Hedo like escape here
in the states, you'll be very happy. For us SMI is a great
2-3 night place, any longer than that we'd jump on a plane and
head to the Tropics. We're thinking of going this
weekend, can't wait.
I did a review of the resort here as well:
