Hey hey hey, I’m planning on going to Rios between Christmas and New Year and wondering what other people's experiences have been during this time?

The website isn’t very helpful and I haven’t been before so any insight would be helpful ❤️

The facilities themselves are great, but unfortunately our overall experience was very disappointing. The venue was dominated by very disrespectful single men, which completely ruined the atmosphere. Until couples-only nights are reinstated, we will not be returning. On top of that, many guests were wearing regular swimsuits and trunks, which felt completely out of place and undermined the concept. Overall, a very frustrating experience and won't return.

I haven't been there myself, there's too many bad stories of the wanking dead tbh. Have you considered going to a couples night? With no single guys it tends to be more relaxed in the clubs. I live 5 mins away from ignite myself. Have you been there OP?

What's ignite like? I've never been. Rio's is ok but I think the facilities are a bit knackered. I went during the day and it was relaxing. During the evening it was very noisy with a lot of single guys and couples.

That’s such a shame, and a reoccurring review unfortunately. Have heard good things about Rios (from a couple of years ago) and Bristol Gardens in Brighton. Might have to head to Brighton instead!

We’d suggest trying Iqnite near London Heathrow. Bristol Gardens Brighton is another option with great facilities we found, but it’s quite tame if you’re looking for a swinger-focused environment.

We enjoy Bristol Gardens..all very clean and very well run. You can be flirtatious with others in the spa/jacuzzi area downstairs but any sort of touching or even kissing can get you a telling off. There are plenty of private playrooms upstairs if you fancy some fun but like I say, any sort of playing in the spa area is totally frowned upon.

‘Pre-covid’!!!! That’s as helpful as saying Woolworths is the best place to go for pick n mix.

The worlds moved on since then. The only good thing about Eureka is that is has an outdoor space. Inside needs money spent on updating & maintenance

Ignite & VA get my vote. I’m wanting to try Jaydees as not been back since the reopening

Sunday is a great day to visit and a lovely chance to socialise (we usually go on Sundays too!). If you’re hoping to meet single men, there are usually a few around, and the atmosphere is generally relaxed and respectful. Like anywhere with single guys, they may follow you around which we personally find very annoying and irritating!but staff are always nearby and very approachable if you ever feel uncomfortable. Over the year, we’ve reported a few when needed, and it’s always been worthwhile doing so. We don't want this sort of single guys attending in the future. Everyone is supportive, and the priority is making sure all members feel comfortable, welcome, and able to enjoy themselves.

It really doesn’t take away from the positives of the club at all — the facilities are great: a heated pool, a couple of four-person jacuzzis, a nice bar area, plenty of playrooms, a dark room, dungeon, and cinema room. What’s not to like!

Ignite is ok, it's probably one of the larger clubs in terms of size, the clientele is a mixture of good and not so good.

Sunday tends to have a lot of naked men walking around with cocks out, it can be intimidating for a newbie. there's a handful of couples. I'd be happy to join you if you like as I live 5 mins away from it. Send me a message as your filters are blocking me from messaging you.

VA is just outside London to the north. It's kind of in the middle of nowhere, you need a car to get there really. But that is the reason I think that it attracts a better more sophisticated clientele. If you fancy checking it out let me know.

Ignite is ok, it's large, it has a swimming pool, clientele has a lot of what is known as the wanking dead. First time around you might be more comfortable going with a man to ward of some of these guys a bit. As they can and do follow women around, which can make a woman uncomfortable.

There's a porn cinema inside where you can get it on. A lounge and bar, the ground floor is a health club actually.

What other people on here are (mostly) saying: Ignites is probably your better bet. Only issue is that it’s a dog to get to unless you have a car.

Going as a single woman would prob be okay but maybe less hassle if you find someone to go with.

"Hey hey hey, I’m planning on going to Rios between Christmas and New Year and wondering what other people's experiences have been during this time?

. The club reviews on Fabs club reviews page are hit and miss perhaps more miss than hit.My last visit was about 6 months ago.I usually go with a lady friend as it’s a nice place to chill out for a few hours.We always have a good time using the facilities even though they are a bit dated.Yes it’s mostly single guys that go there of all nationalities and some can be pushy.If you are going as a single lady you may be in the jacuzzi and a man sitting next to you trying to make conversation and his hand may accidentally or not accidentally may touch or go up and down your leg. How will you deal with that.A strong glare or a firm no and pushing his hand away he should get the message.Be prepared to be followed by a line of guys going from sauna to steam room to jacuzzi.This happens to single ladies and couples.For what it’s worth I would advise to go with a male friend if that is practical.If not go by yourself but be firm with any unwanted attention.I believe you should not listen to too much opinions on Rios or anywhere else just make your own judgement.Do what feels right for you.Best of luck with whatever you decide and have a great Christmas & New Year.

Sorry this isn't personal to you but

This should not happen in the first place. A nudist setting does not imply consent, and touching anyone without it is unacceptable.

. I agree touching someone without consent is unacceptable.There are two small jacuzzi at Rios hold 6-8 people.Sometime there will be genuine accidentally shoulders or legs rubbing together.A quick sorry and adjusting yourself I feel that a genuine accident.It’s where a hand is touching and rubbing a leg or other part of the body that is not a genuine accidentally scenario.This has happened to my lady friend a few times we just move away but I say to her if it happens again to let me know and I will speak to him.Fortunately it doesn’t happen a 2nd time not that it should have happened a 1st time.

Thank you all, great advice and will check out Ignite. Thanks for the offers of chaperones, it’s not something I want or need. I’m not a newbie just haven’t been to the places suggested and I am very capable of handling myself if I need to, I definitely don’t take consent lightly and anyone can catch these hands if needed

We went to AbFabs near Heathrow and had a great time (though it may have changed names now?). Great facilities and the clientele all seemed very nice. Huge venue. Quite chilled vibe, which may not be what everyone wants. But they have a licensed bar which is always nice (and rare to find)

I went a few weeks ago on a Saturday with a male friend. Not that many couples or women at all but we did score. We had a little play in the backrooms with a middle aged couple that wasn't particularly good (man pushy woman reluctant so vibe was off) but also met a similar age couple (late twenties/mid thirties) who we took numbers with and later hooked up with that night once we'd left.

Unless you're a nudist or arrange to meet someone there I wouldn't bother to waste your money as a single guy.

Single women have to be on their guard and assertive but could enjoy the facilties.

Couples will have more fun if they looking for single guys or they just buzz off being nude together. You could meet other couples but easier if you flexible about age size race attractiveness personality etc

Its a good place to arrange meets at if you don't want to pay for hotel or use your home or want to have a spa setting for sexy times.

Where else can you swim past like 8pm in London?

I would be up for meeting single ladies or couples there give me a message
