Customer Reviews

This was a fun read!!!

It is obvious that Chris Santilli has a great sense of humor. She takes a lot of the mysticism away from what one would expect while visiting Hedo II. She has a lot of insights on what's what down in Jamaica (no judgements, for example). She introduces the reader to several of the staff (most of whom are still working there). Some of these staff members are treated as well-known personalities (almost rock star status) and Chris tells you who is who among them. Having just returned from our 3rd trip to Hedo II since last May, I can tell you that the place is a lot of fun, and Chris captures the magic in her book. I rate it 5 stars, it was a fast, fun read.

good info for any all inclusive vacation

This is the first travel book I've read that didn't put me into a coma. Each page I laughed. Each page I learned. This book supplied the answers to the questions unasked. Woodies, Wallys, (...) checks for toilet paper, floating members (hell, I've had one all my life and didn't realize it floats), etiquette, all inclusive tipping and much more. I realize how little I knew when I first vacationed "all inclusive". This book isn't just for those interested in Hedo Resorts, Jamaica, or any all inclusive vacation; This book can stand alone for "a good read". I must return to Jamaica to put my new found knowledge to work.... They need me.

Honest information and easy to read

I do not buy travel books, hate them. They take all the mystery away from a trip. However, since I am going to visit Hedo II and was curious I bought this book.Chris Santilli really knows how to give you the straight, honest information about the place and makes it fun to read. There are many funny stories accompanied with numerous useful advice. She gives an honest appreciation of the foibles and highlights of the place.Reading this book makes me feel well-prepared for my trip. I know what to look forward to, what to be careful about, what to bring and not bring, what to do and not do to get the most out of my trip. If you are going to invest that kind of money in a trip like that, getting this book first is probably the best thing you could do. Consider it as a good investment, good preparation, good research, good fun.

Candid & Complete; Fun & Informative

This book lives up to its name, but don't judge it by its cover. "The Naked Truth..." takes readers by the hand and leads them down the pebbled paths that wind through the resort with arguably the most devoted clientele in the world: Hedonism II. The cover of this book shows stick figures frolicking along. Perhaps this is because without spending time at Hedonism, you can only get a brief outline of what this magical place has in store. The people who go to "Hedo," however, are very real. Ms.Santilli does an accurately delightful job of communicating this. Guests there come from all walks of life to revel in their own individuality and sexuality, and to celebrate these qualities in the people around them. If you are a 'repeat offender' counting days until your next trip to Negril, buy this book to read on the airplane and to possibly recount your own HedoTales. If you enjoyed Hedonism once and can not wait to go back, buy this book to read in between calls to your travel agent. If you are considering a first trip to Hedo II, buy this book - it does indeed live up to its name and is worth every dime. Truly 5 stars, and a definite 2 thumbs up; Ms. Santilli bares it with the very best, writing with a very sexy style. Buy this book, then buy any sequel, then buy them all for your friends.

An entertaining and exact guide to a unique resort.

If you are going to Hedonism II, this book will prepare you in so many ways for the fun you are going to experience. It will save you time, money, and embarrassment. If you have been to Hedo you will laugh and wish to return as soon as possible.
