The crowds are why I steer clear of going out in Hell’s Kitchen and West Hollywood, the gay clubbing capitals of New York City and Los Angeles, respectively. (This was right before the Omicron explosion, FYI.)īut after I agreed to attend, I got a little anxious: namely, over what the crowd would be like. Food, drinks, naked men, Florida sunshine: it sounded like a queer man’s paradise. The place describes itself as a sex-positive, clothing-optional resort for men my friends have described it as 'much chiller than any Atlantis cruise.'Īfter the Men's Health story ran, Island House invited me to come down for a few days to get the full experience. But there was one I added, Island House, that I hadn't been to, although I felt like I had, given how much my friends had gushed about the Key West destination over the years. I've been on more than a few such vacations myself, and included some of my faves on the list. Last year, I was tasked with writing a list of the best sex resorts for Men's Health.
