Here's an update on the ever-shifting FKK Club scene in Germany, which has experienced big changes and transformations in recent years, esp. in the post-Covid era.

NRW: 10+ years ago, there were many small to medium-sized clubs particularly in the the Koln-Dusseldorf area, but this scene is no longer today what it used to be. Some good clubs from former times faced existential threats: The great GoldenTime in Brueggen along with its sister club Living Room on the outskirts of Dusseldorf were literally reduced to ashes. They are long gone. Sayma still operates: but good luck getting any value for money or finding anything but mediocre service. Magnum still operates, but like some of the other still-operating clubs (e.g. Penelope), the clientele is overwhelmingly young Muslim men and this atmosphere spills over and reflects negatively on the girls' performance/attitude. As for the once reliable, go-to club PHG (Planet Happy Garden): we hardly hear anything about this place and it's remote and hard to get to anyway. Personally, I stopped going to the NRW clubs a long time ago....Just not worth it anymore (for me, at least).

Hesse: This was always my main base for clubs and mongering activities. However, from the recent times pre-Covid, when there were the so-called "Big Hessen 5" clubs (Oase/Palace/Mainhattan/World/Sharks) offering differing but satisfying club experiences, it seems these days (unfortunately) there is only 1 of these clubs offering good-to-above-average LUs: Sharks in Darmstadt.

It's so sad to report that the once mighty Oase, has now degraded into a 2nd-tier club offering hit-or-miss LUs, generally sub-standard atmospheres, and only worth testing on an in frequent basis on reduced entry Weds, when it's 50 Eintritt fee vs the normal 65euros. Even then Oase can be very dodgy in my opinion...actually to be honest, I don't go there anymore, but from what I hear, the club has been steadily declining after the original long-time owner (Mauro) turned the club over to the control of his adult son and daughter. Lack of experience, bad decision-maing has resulted in no effective management. Nowth girls start charging all kinds of crazy prices and offering bad service for the most part. Sure, you can get lucky, but it's a real crap shoot now (no pun intended). On my last two visits (2024), two different girls tried to scam me. I just got fed up with this once 1st tier club and only visit at most once a year. Again: very sad.

World outside Giessen, was for many years great-to-excellent. But even before Covid hit, this place stopped offering the fantastically diverse and extensive LUs of years past, and then they re-organised the club (to its detriment, I and many believe) by making a cheap-o Entry club (20 euors to enter??) and everything you eat/drink or even towel to wear is extra, extra, extra. Pair that with an unreliable and (even on peak nights) underwhelming LU, it's no longer worth the petrol money to drive to Pohlheim from FFM. Bottem Line: Fogetaboutit!

Palace and Mainhattan: Total tourist rip-off places now. Again, very sad. Way back when, Palace used to rock! Great LUs a real winner of a club esp. during winter months, when outdoor areas were less important. Now, even though I sometimes stay in Hausen area, the closest I come to the Palace is simply to drive by and never even contemplate going inside. Girls approach you as if you're a tourist and quote over-the-top pricing. Plus, there are few if any stunners now, just bored old silicone-infested lazy girls, many on the older side. Mainhattan is similar and also has hit-or-miss LUs. Prices are not stable, often outrageous. Both are clubs for tourists, or drunk Messe attendees. Verdict once again: Forgetaboutit!

Sharks The only true "Destination Club" left: For the past ten years, and most particularly in the post-Covid era, Sharks in Darmstadt-Nord is THE GO-TO Club. On Weds (50e Eintritt), Fri/Sat/Sun (69e Eintritt), one most often encounters vast LUs, 120-150 girls! And the LUs are in a constant state of flux, with large turn-overs of girls over the span of just a week or two. Yes, there is a steady core of top girls that are there regularly...but on top of that core LU, there's always (I mean ALWAYS) new girls, quite often coming from all kinds of clubs from all over the FKK landscape: NRW - Hamburg - Munich inside Germany plus girls from clubs in Switzerland and Austria too. Quite common to meet and greet girls from all kinds of other clubs. Not just high-end Swiss clubs, but also from lower-end, smaller clubs like Luxor, Feigenblatt, Finca Erotica (Dierdorf), Rom...even girls from Samya in Koln or Artemis in Berlin. With a LU that diverse and vast in numbers, you can pretty much find whatever type that floats your boat. General base price is 100e/30mins, but you have to delve into that pricing with girls on an individual basis to ensure exactly what services are included in that base price. Service elements will absolutely vary from girl to girl, but that's the beauty of the FKK model: You can meet and flirt with tons of girls find out their charisma, attitude and what they offer. You will find lots of girls who might give you a great time with DFK/DATY/BBBJ/and protected sex for 100/30. At the same time, you will also encounter "top-tier" girls who will want 150/30 for DFK to be included. Again, at the same time, I often can also find great "top-tier" girls who give me everything I want for 150/60mins. There are many girls who want 200/60, but then if they are not working so well that night (with the large LU, competition is high amongst the girls), roundabout midnight, they will come back to you and say "Ok, let's go for 150/60." Personally, I esp. like Tuesday and Thursday nights, when the club atmosphere is totally chilled comapred to the peak nights. The LU consists of fewer girls, but still somewhere in the 60-80 girls range, which is plenty for me to choose from. On these quiet nights there are fewer men, no waits for rooms, and girls will spend more time with you sitting on your lap chatting for up to 30 minutes before the room. At Sharks, they have an upper whirlpool deck with more secluded couches and covered beds, and sometimes with the right girls you can get something mildly approaching the "couch action" that used to be so characteristic within the FKKs across the board back in the mid-2000s - 2016/17.

Bottom Line: In my opinion (yes, perhaps subjective), Sharks is the best and only real option right now and it's likely to stay this way for some time.

This is a summary of the state of affairs the way I personally see things now. Anybody is free to disagree and if so, please share your own experiences.

ST

ST,

Yes, yes, yes!
I've been waiting for more FKK reports. Everything has changed so much.
Golden Time, Living Room, Bernd's, and Yin Yang...all gone!
The BIG THREE from years past-World, Oase, Palace all in disrepair with bad management and unhappy girls.
What is a punter to do?

I haven't been to Sharks or Mainhatten since COVID. Looks like Sharks is the next stop this winter!
I have had two issues with them in the past:
Aggressive hunting by girls, and massive crowds. If this is the last good choice among the big clubs, I worry that both those problems will get worse. And even with intel from Fred, it is impossible to find that girl with the great reputation when there are 100 to chose from.

What else is left?
In the NL, there is SIxens. And I think that is all. But the facility has the charm of a missile silo, and the lineup hovers in the 5-6 range. Ugh.
Babylon has grown, with the new spa area and outdoor pool, and there are more girls, but the owner is usually drinking heavily at the bar, and some girls try to take advantage.
I've heard good reports from locals about Finca, and several Ex-Bernd's girls moved there, so I have so hope of quality service. It is a longer drive south than I usually like, but it is next on my Must Visit list.

I see several new Bar/Brothel clubs getting good reviews...No Limits, Cafe Nylon...but the linups are small and irregular. Making a trip to find only one (or NO) good choices leads to more drinking at the bar, and a late, lonely drive back. I had a great time at No Limits, but if Cleo was not working, I would have had zero choices

Something has to give. Girls are moving around because they can't find a place that they like. I think there will be more closures, and eventually a big club will find a way to keep a happy, quality lineup. I'm sure it will come with a price increase, and maybe an end to free drinks. There is a small but growing group of young guys that just hang out and drink. They irritate the girls and ruin the vibe. Sloppy drunks with no money just don't fit in.

I was hoping that new German weed laws would lead to a smoker-friendly FKK, but that doesn't look like it will happen any time soon. At least I can kind of see the POSSIBILITY of maybe one day....

Weasel

Just to update on the NL sauna clubs - situation not as grim as suggested above.

Yin Yang re-opened about a year ago.

So, there are currently three places: Sixsens in Lemiers, Yin Yang in Roermond and Sauna Club Le Grand, a small club in Zundert (near Breda).

G H,

Have you been to Yin Yang since the re-opening?
I've seen nothing recently, and the last I heard (probably a year ago) was that they were still trying to recover their license.

Weasel

Edit: The website is back up, but that has happened before. I would still like to see a report form someone that has visited. Looking into this....

Edit2: Yin Yang is open! Reopened early this year after reconstruction following a fire, and problems getting the license back. Few reviews, none here. Looking at other boards, with maybe 10 comments, the facility gets good reviews beyond the bathroom, food has impressed, but service reviews are brutal. One particularly bad report from an experienced German punter included aggressive upselling, not delivering agreed-upon services in the room, demands for payment for services not rendered, complaints to management, and an intimidating security guard that insisted that the girl be paid.
This is exactly how I would have handled the situation.
Total failure by management.
Bad enough that gets the almost never invoked:

WEASEL WARNING

This is disturbing. Many people have hoped for the return of Yin Yang. I hate to pass on hearsay, but there are clubs that allow abuse of customers, and the only way it stops is when word gets out on forums like this.
I will continue to look for more reviews, and I feel like I have to visit myself in January, and post a proper report in English. (not that there is anything wrong with reports in German, I mean a report to Gaston's standards, in English because it is easier to read for those here...oh, Fuck, you know what I mean!)
Anyway...
This is not a place for a first-time visitor. I hope we can get reports from some fans of the old Yin Yang, with specifics on all the changes. I hope I don't meet security. The next step in that dance is to call the Polite. Bluto provides a generous expense account. Travel, Entrit, 3-400 Euro for "research", bail...It is hard work, but somebody has to do it!

Thanks for the excellent update.
And I too miss the 50 euro sessions at Golden Time, back in the day. Not been the same since.

Over the summer I visited several FKKs

Golden Time Vienna - small club, good selection, good sessions at 150

Sayma - I agree; small club, decent selection, ok sessions at 150. Would not go out of my way to repeat.

Sharks - Really liked the club, great selection, one session went off the rails over upselling - I hope that was just bad luck. Will try again in the future.

Oase - I enjoy the large grounds on a summer day, weekend selection was good - weekday not so much, always had really good sessions at 100 euro.
Found a weekday girl that I really clicked with, so repeated several times over the summer.

If not for the lucky find at Oase, definitely would have given Sharks more business.
