We were very excited about this club at first. We were excited that they had a social media presence; it's 2015, all clubs should have a social media following. We were excited about how close it was. We were excited about the mixed crowd we saw inside. We were excited about we got our tour...We thought we had finally found a home club in Phoenix after being disappointed for two weeks. We were wrong.Let's start from the beginning. The club is located in a pretty shady area on the west side of Phoenix. The parking close to and attached to the club seemed to be pretty limited, but there was some parking across the street. The club is not a private club which means that there are no membership fees, yay, but also means that there is no alcohol on premise, boo. If you want to drink, you'll have to consume your alcohol in your privately owned vehicle. Couples were only $30 to get in, single males are $35 to get in, and single ladies are free. We were happy to see that there were not as many creepy single males sitting in the corner jacking off, but there were still a few. We were not happy to see a sign posted as we were walking into the club after we paid that stated, "This is a heterosexual club". We were very confused. A huge part of the lifestyle is that it is SUPPOSED to be an open-minded and judge free environment where people can be themselves in an atmosphere that is unlike the outside vanilla world. So we asked ourselves if this meant that no bi-sexual women were allowed. Then we asked ourselves if they were actually, publicly discriminating against any and all bi people in general who enjoy the lifestyle setting. There was a bar to the right as you enter the actual club area. We asked the bartender, who was a blonde female, about the sign and the statement of "This is a heterosexual club". Her response was, and this is a direct quote: "Cause the gays can marry now." Other than thinking, "are you fucking serious?!", there was no other response that could be given to that reply.We didn't actually get a tour, so we had to show ourselves around. There were bathrooms just beyond where you signed in and where the infamous sign was posted; men to the left and women to the right. Down the hall after you check in, before you enter the actual club, there is a hot tub room with what appeared to be an amazing in ground hot tub. Plus there were mirrors surrounding the hot tub on all sides with lockers for personal belongings and two showers as well. Once we went into the actual club, there was a video room with porn playing to the left and a random creepy single guy sitting there jacking off. As you walked further into the club, on the same side there was a VIP couples only area separated by a sheer curtain. There was a couch in this area, a love seat, TV, and a table. We weren't sure if that cost extra or not since we did not get an actual tour. At the end of the wall on the left was a video room where there was a cut out in the wall, much like a bar area, and guys were sitting there looking out onto the crowd; one of them of course was jacking off. There was a pool table in this social area as well, 16 tables, a small dance floor which was lined with mirrors. The dance floor also had two stripper poles on it which were about seven to eight feet apart. The clientele seemed to be pretty mixed for the area, but no one was dressed in the luau theme other than Angie who came up to us as we sat down and introduced herself. We weren't sure who she was exactly, but she was very friendly.We ventured upstairs to explore the club on our own since we didn't get a tour at all and we met Cliff; he was cool. He is the person you check in with when you want to use one of the upstairs play rooms. He is seated at the top of the stairs in a social area with a couple of couches. Between where he is seat and the first room, there is a towel/sheet/cleaner station for all of your towels/sheets/cleaning supplies.
Again, there's no alcohol, but the bar area downstairs did have refreshments and food to the right as you walk in the club.The clientele was much more physically attractive and seemed to be more social than the other Phoenix club that we visited, but the fact that the club publicly discriminates and offends in the most basic of ways with their sign AND their staff doesn't deny it with their answers about, "yea, well aren't a lesbian club, we aren't a gay club, we're a swingers club" and "cause the gays can marry now", turned us off completely.
