Hedonism Resorts, Adults resort in Negril, Jamaica

Hedonism Resorts is the adults-only Hedonism II property at the northern end of Negril beach, Jamaica, occupying 22 acres with 280 rooms in two-story buildings. Hedonism III, opened in 1999 in Runaway Bay with 225 rooms in three-story buildings on 10 acres, closed in 2010 and is not part of the Negril site.

The property opened in 1976 as Negril Beach Village with a ten million dollar investment from the Jamaican government. The concept aimed at adult guests from the start to help develop tourism in Negril.

Hedonism II takes its name from the philosophy of pleasure-seeking, and its culture is built around that: clothing-optional beaches and pools, adults only, with public nudity illegal in Jamaica but tolerated inside the private grounds. The resort has hosted nudist and swinger conventions, and tour operators catering to swingers book guests here. Owner John Issa has rejected the label of a "whorehouse" while saying he is satisfied with the resort's decadent image.

Several on-site restaurants serve international dishes and Jamaican specialties such as jerk chicken and fresh fish. The sections are clearly marked so guests can move according to personal comfort level.

Hedo Weedo opened in July 2020 inside Hedonism II, founded by Richard 'Kevin' Levee and Harry Lange; Levee said the licensing process had begun five years earlier. It is described as Jamaica's first legal and regulated cannabis dispensary.
