Hi folks,

Me & my partner will be visting Amsterdam soon and are interested in visiting a swingers club. We are both in our mid 20's, my partner is bi-sexual and obviously interested in other girls, however she is not interested in interacting with any other males, but has no problem with them watching. We would like to meet people in and around our own age group preferably also.

We done some reading up and are interested in checking out either Club Paradise, F42 or Fata Morgana, however we are only going to be there for a few days and would like to make sure we pick the right spot for us!

If any of you more experienced folks could point us in the right direction we would very much appreciate it!

Many thanks :)

Hello,

I would go to the Showboat or F42.

To get to either one will cost you something. So consider it part of the cost of the evening.

At Paradise your mileage will vary...it can be good or it can be bad. It is also a large place so if there are only 30 people there you will feel that you are rattling around.

Here are 2 older posts of mine that I posted last year for someone else and that might address your questions ...........Hope they help. Regards, Roland

The responses.................


It all depends on what you are looking for. I am not being glib.

Also what night(s) of the week do you want to go? Friday and Saturday are your best bets for any club.

Are you looking to only swing or do you also want kink? Other options are available.

Do you want a couples only evening or are you okay with some single men? Paradise is easily accessible in the north and can be walked to. You will need to cab it home though as the ferry stops after 12:45 am. However, I am certain that your mileage will vary...it can be great and it can suck.

If I were going to Paradise I would try to combine it with an event like Unleashed or Alter Ego and dress accordingly.

Showboat is quite good as is Fata Morgana, Amourette and Mystique. FM is closest to Amsterdam while you could train and cab it to Showboat fairly inexpensively. You will need to taxi it back unless you get a lift from someone.

Are you okay with a larger ratio of single men to couples? Sameplace is an option. However it is a bit seedy (which many like) and is a erotic bar rather than a club. No men for the Sunday couples party.

If you only want couples then Fun4Two is simply the best.

Just my 2 cents.

Regards, Roland

Hi somelanger,

I would suggest that you consider going to the Showboat.

As I said you can take the train and cab or just a cab. Since there is 2 of you I would cab it there and back and consider it a cost of the evening. It is easy to get to and easy to get home from.

It has a reasonably entry fee. It is large enough to walk around in and observe others, yet small enough to overwhelm. If Paradise is empty or quiet which is often the case, unless there is a special event like Alter Ego, then you may feel that you are rattling around.

Showboat has private lockable rooms (some with windows and some without) if you feel the urge but want privacy. Thus you don't have to play with anyone. Otherwise, if you are comfortable there are lots of benches, seating areas and nooks that you can 'snuggle" in and be open to others if you so desire. There is also a good dance area and they usually do a buffet.

In dutch we say "gezellig" to describe a comfortable, nice, friendly place and I think this fits for Showboat.

There is a smoking room but I would ask, at the door, if it is okay to smoke a joint. It is not illegal but some people don't like the smell. Asking is just being polite. They may ask you just to smoke outside which is easy enough to do.

Hope this helped.

Finally, as a couple, and if you only wanted to get your "feet wet" then you could also just venture to Sameplace. Your mileage may vary but it is a super easy introduction to the potential lifestyle, it is cheap and you are within town limits and it is easy walk or quick cab.

All just my 2 cents.

Regards, Roland
