Hmmm. Well if we do run into anyone there that doesn't "get it"... we know that most everyone else at TTR does, so we're sure we'll have any and all support we will need. I'm sorry to hear some of you all have had problems. It's the very mature behaving clientele of TTR that allows us to go, flirt, get crazy, do shots, dance with other men/women and not worry about this sort of stuff. Lets not let the one or two bad apples spoil the party!
Just a quick come back to this, maybe I shouldn't have said anything in regards to this. We usually go for 2 weeks, 1 night out of 14 we had an issue, nothing physical just an over intoxicated person that couldn't hear the word no. Just walk away.. To be honest with the amount of drinking, sun and fun I've been very surprised, people as a whole are very well behaved, respectful and fun. So all said and done.. outta 70 days at Temptations drinking, having the time of our lives we had 2 incidents.. which may have taken hmmm 1hr maybe 2hrs out of our total great time... Nothing to really complain about I'd say. I think my odds are worse here at home if I spent that amount of time at a local club or bar..:icon_idea:
d5532 - I understand all your concerns, but I think you're going to be VERY pleasantly surprised by the level of respect shown at Temptation. We were there in February for the first time, pushing some boundaries at PatyO's and in the pool (in ways we talked about ahead of time and were comfortable with). We were generally having fun with people we'd been talking to for a while, and with who we understood boundaries (which were different for every two people). But we understood that we might be sending signals to others that it was a free-for-all. So a few times a guy (or couple) would wander up to our group. Sometimes they were respectful and patiently felt out the rules, and we had a new friend. Other times they were too pushy at first, and we'd tell them we preferred to dance or talk without them. Every time they said no problem and walked away. I have no doubt that's not the case 100% of the time, and then you simply grab the nearest security and they take care of it. But we never had to do that. Bottom line: the guys at Temptation - in our experience and based on a lot of trip reports here - are far more respectful than guys at dance clubs. They might be more forward sometimes, but as long as they take no for an answer (and they almost always do) I think that's a lot more respectful than the sleaze you describe trying to hook up with your girl while you're in the bathroom at a club. Are there dirtball exceptions? Sure, but they're rare, much rarer for example than at a Vegas club. So I hope you can go with an open mind and enjoy the great crowd and not feel like you have to be defensive all week. I think you'd miss out on meeting a lot of great people that way. Ryan
I find this topic to be a legitimate topic... Not all of us travel in large groups and therefore are apprehensive of visiting such a resort... This kind of information is actually very useful as long as we can keep it objective and factual. 1. if you prowl, the hunted can be hunted, dont complain bc someone that is not appealing to you came on to you. 2. no one has the right to come up behind you and grap your ass, set the tone from the beginning, as mentioned, flirting, body language etc says it all. 3. dont do onto others what you would not like to have done to you. 4. If you are going to devilish intentions in mind, stay in control and set things up correctly...if you find a group of ppl to do body shots with bc you clicked with them then make your own space, dont start sucking on nipples right next to a group of single drunk men, that's like eating steak next to a starving man...its a huge place, 5 to 10 feet of space in between goes a long way. 5. If a drunk person does get out of line even after you have covered all your bases, employ the same strategy for sexual harrasment at the work place, if its verbal demand it stops, if it continues report it, if its physical and totally unwanted report it and let the resort deal with it, find a new resting spot and move on. Lastly, nobody is touching my ass or messaging my back or leaning on me unless I want them to, keep that in mind folks...same as work, same as at clubs, you are in control or at least you should aim to be....
Final Words.... I wish this kind of topic would come with much more detail…. Examples: We were with a group of 8 people, all doing body shots and the slap that ass game when out of nowhere this single guy grabbed my ass, ewww, who does he think he is. I was sun bathing topless minding my own business when a guy out of nowhere sat next to me and a) made me an indecent proposal and would not take no for an answer b) started sucking on my nipples without asking c) whatever, you get the point We were with a group of friends, new people we met, there were a few singles. One got way to drunk and was making rude comments that really upset me. You get the idea…..
we've had horrible dealings with creepy single guys, from propositions to unwated photography. we wish the resort was couples only
isn't funny or strange how the original posters of this thread have not replied once or posted any additional comments, ??? Uhhhmmmm, makes me wonder.....
