Temptation Resort and Spa

Temptations is one of the classier, party-oriented resorts, although just like it sounds, it’s targeted to single adults who are looking to let loose and get wild, perhaps taking part in activities that their parents or children shouldn’t and probably wouldn’t want to see. There are strict rules to keep things from getting too out of control in public areas, however. The property includes five dining options and five bars, a full-service spa and salon, and three outdoor pools, each with a different theme: relaxation, sports and sensual entertainment – all are topless-friendly. Just some of the entertainment you can expect includes provocative games and contests, a pajama and lingerie casino, risque live shows and all-night clubs. Also included in the all-inclusive package are non-motorized water sports like windsurfing, kayaking, paddle boarding and hobie cats, with free classes to learn how.
