This week on Hot Couple Chronicles. Every time
we get a room that we like and we show out, like
we decorate it, we bring our own lights and we
host parties in our room and luncheons and free
drinks and food and we invite everybody in our
room and we make it look amazing. And then the
next time we go, somebody grabs it before we
get a chance. And then like a typical day at
Secrets is you wake up, walk outside naked, little
spring, amazing feeling ever. No one cares. Secrets
is the only place I've been naked naked in public
during the daytime. If you're going to a room
call, that's where you'll get in the most trouble.
It's a lot of shots quickly. Very fast because
you don't realize, yeah, it catches up to you
quickly. And it's usually at the end of a long
day in the pool. So make sure you grab those
waters that they do. You'll get rooms to hand
those out, definitely. Definitely chug that sucker.

hot couple chronicles happy wednesday we finally
made it through a wednesday together i know here
i am i'm back again finally feels so good i am
exhausted though i bet you are just my body's
like done yeah those have been a long like four
weeks for the most part the longest month of
my life pretty much and i am so happy to be back
i am Ready. I mean, I'm only home for like nine
days and then I'm going back to Florida. We're
going back to Florida. Well, at least we're going
together this time. But yeah, and it's for fun
and it's not, I don't have to worry about constantly
missing my grandchild being born all the time
like I have for the last month or so. So it feels
good. My anxiety is so much better now that they're
home and everything's good and I'm home and I'm
back with you. Finally, I've missed you. Finally,
but we have secrets coming up in nine days. And
so we have decided that this episode is going
to be all about secrets. All the things, all
the inside scoop, all the details, all the information
that you could ever want for your first trip
to secrets hideaway, because we have been quite
a few times now. Yeah, I don't even know what
number time this is, but we've been quite a few.
Like eight or so. It's been a lot of times. We've
been going once or twice a year for the last
four years. Three or four for me. But yeah, we've
been going pretty regularly for quite a few years
now, and we love it there. And we're headed back,
and I know a lot of our friends are going for
the first time. We have a group of people that
are going with us for the first time ever. I'm
pretty excited about it. So excited to show them.
One of our favorite places. We love, we are lucky
enough. It's not too close to us, but it's close
enough. If we spend all of our free time there,
it feels close. My sister is, she lives about
four hours south. And then we usually stop there
or my daughter's house. She's also there. And
then it's only another like hour 45, two hours
to secrets. It's in Kissimmee, Florida. Kissimmee,
people argue. Which one it is. I don't know.
I say Kissimmee. I say Kissimmee. Because of
how it's spelled. I don't know. There's some
argument there. But yeah, it's in Kissimmee,
Florida. And it's an old Ramada. Let's be honest.
Not for canned. It is what it isn't. Yes. And
as long as you understand that, you're going
to be okay. It's an old motel that they've renovated.
Yeah. And it's privately owned condos. Two stories,
condos, and I forget how many rooms. 230 or something
like that. There's a lot. There's quite a few.
And each one is privately owned. So every single
room is different. So you never know. You don't
get the same thing for two rooms. Well, Secrets
is basically three separate businesses in one
property. It's the resort. It's the condos and
the real estate. And it's the club. Yeah. So
they have a whole real estate side of it where
they sell these condos to people. They're pretty
pricey to buy. We've looked into it. It's a perk
though, man. But there's obvious perks as an
owner at Secrets. We would love to one day. It's
a goal one day. It's a goal. And so each of them
have a different theme. So they're really cool.
There's different categories. There's just your
standard room. And they're more just like a hotel
room. Yeah, they have like a single king or a
single queen. Or double queen, I should say.
Like standard room. And then you have your fantasy
suites, which are like the themes. Yeah. So they
have like 007. And there's a Tiki Bar one. And
there's anime. There's a... batman and joker
one there's the fire and ice one yeah that one's
pretty cool too yeah uh yeah there's so many
so many each room that's what they do a good
job of making their rooms unique yeah and then
there's also ones that are clean and it's not
really a theme it's just sexy it's nice yeah
a lot of like whites a lot of rooms that are
just like white white or black and yeah they
have like your swings in it or they have bdsm
And most all of them have a kitchenette. They
all have sinks and a fridge of some sort. Some
rooms have a full -size fridge. Those are our
personal favorite rooms. We need fridge space
because we bring a lot of food and drinks and
things because we host a lot of things. Yeah,
we host stuff in our room. A full -size fridge
is a plus for us. So we always like the rooms
with a big fridge. That's why we like our 161
so much because it has a full -size fridge and
freezer, which is sweet. And then you'll find
the ones that we try to... try different ones
every time we go but we do have particular ones
that we do yeah we have first picks that we if
it's available we go there yeah but the problem
is yeah is every time we get a room that we like
and we we show out like we decorate it we bring
our own lights and we host parties in our room
and luncheons and free drinks and food and we
invite everybody And we make it look amazing.
And then the next time we go, somebody grabs
it before we get a chance. Every time. Every
time. We haven't been able to get 161 in two
years because we sold that location and that
room so hard. So ever since, it's been hard to
get. I think that was one of my favorites just
because of the location. Yeah. The location was...
Perfect. That's my favorite part about it. And
I do like the shower too. The shower is my second
favorite part of it. Yeah, the shower is. It
has a really good shower, but it has a really
good window right in the corner. So everybody
has this by, if you like that sort of thing.
And we do. So this year we're staying in 141,
which is, it looks really nice. It looks really
like, it's like clean. Yeah, it's one of those.
sexy like it's not really themed but it's real
nice and it has a nice shower it's like an eight
person showerhead or something like that so yes
i'm excited a lot of them have big walk -in showers
for multiple people which is fun and then you
pay a little bit more for the interior rooms
because those are the prime spot so you can get
to the party faster so when people ask me about
tips on secrets i tell them Well, it's all about
what you want. Yeah. If you want a quiet place
to unwind in an exterior room. Yeah. If you want
to be in the party, don't mind a little bit of
noise at night because. It will be noisy. It
will be noisy. And the DJ starts at like. 10
a .m. 10 a .m. every day. And goes until like
3 in the morning. So if you don't mind that.
Yeah. And you want to be part of the, you know,
in the party, in the craziness. get an interior
room and the views are better i mean you can
actually you can see out your window and see
everybody and it's a good time that's the key
part and we do we do usually get an interior
last year we got an exterior and it is much quieter
it is quieter and it is easier to go sneak away
and take naps and stuff during the day because
during the day it is very loud all day yeah so
i mean again yeah it's just what you prefer and
if you what you like because the only Only downside
to the room that we have this time is it's a
little bit farther away from the DJ stand, but
it's the whole opposite corner from the entrance.
Yeah, so we have to walk the whole way around.
Yeah, there's only one entrance to the pool area.
And it's towards the front of the resort. And
there's a black fence that goes all the way around
the pool area, the tiki area. And for us, it
takes average. timed it quite a few times like
45 minutes for us to get around because we were
stopped every like two yeah it's because we run
into people and we get distracted and so just
running to the room real quick is never running
to the room real quick it's always like an hour
process every single time with swinger society
anyway that's like that's the because we know
so many people there that they'll be in the room
like hey come get a drink or this We get pulled
into the rooms. We hang out. We drink. A lot
of times we're like, oh, we ordered a giant pizza.
Do you want a piece? I'm not complaining. That's
for sure. But yeah, that's pretty much the rundown
on the room. You book it just like any other
hotel. They have their website. And usually if
there's a takeover, there'll be a direct booking
page with all the rooms on them and stuff like
that. But you can easily Google every room and
see pictures and the themes and what is included.
Most of them have the microwave. A lot of them
have like coffee makers. One we had with a crock
pot in it one time. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. A blender.
Like you have random. You never know what you're
getting. Some of them have toasters. Most of
them have dishes and like enough silverware and
stuff to eat. Knives and all the things you could
possibly need. It's kind of like an Airbnb. A
little bit. A little bit. You'll get ones that
have certain utensils you need and things that
you need and tools. It's a little bit like a
home to suite. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's a
hotel room. But also there are a little extra
things like a silverware, a Keurig. Yeah. You'll
get like K -cups and stuff and they'll have like
whole drawers. You just never know what you're
going to get. So definitely like Google is good
for that. I always Google iCandy always pops
up with the better pictures and the description.
So I always go through. It also sold out for
like an event in 2001 or something like that.
But it's like I go through and they have the
best descriptions and all the pictures. So I
go through there and it'll tell you. what it
comes with and how many people it fits. And on
Secret's website, there's a map where you can
see where the room is located to the resort.
And there is a map on there that you can zoom
in and virtually walk around and see the room
and go in and out and stuff, which is nice. But
yeah, it'll tell you everything you need on their
website. And usually whatever takeover you're
going to, they have it all on the website that
you book on and stuff. Looking for a fresh way

then like a typical day at Secrets is you wake
up. Walk outside naked. Little spring. Amazing
feeling ever. No one cares at all. It's always
a progression for us. It is. It is. It is. It
is. We show up usually like if we are going to
a takeover at Secrets. We usually show up a day
early before the actual takeover. Like the Thursday.
Like the Thursday. And then we hang out. It's
usually pretty chill. That's like a. some kind
of meet and greet game or something like scavenger
something something just kind of icebreaker yeah
but as we the weekend progresses we get more
comfortable and then less and less clothes i
don't know this weekend i was woke up in the
morning with sweatpants and that's it that's
i walked out and just sweatpants just because
it's cold but i don't know i'm secrets definitely
makes me come out of my shell for sure i feel
safe there now we're at top all the time which
i don't do very often I don't know. It's such
a good feeling to wake up in the morning and
just not. Just not. I'm never really comfortable
walking around naked. Except for at Secret. Same.
Not even at Trap have I ever. I have shirts on.
I always have pants on. But Secret is the only
place I've been naked naked in public during
the daytime. I think it's all the hot. sweaty
showering everybody's just showering together
it's just kind of in the pool together it's just
kind of secrets is the only place i've fallen
asleep naked in the pool chair yeah yeah you
kind of like let your guard down because you
live there for a few days and you just kind of
let it go but anyway yeah they have during the
day you wake up and they do serve breakfast they
start serving breakfast in the morning now they
do that and you can get breakfast they have a
little continental breakfast in the lobby too
as well then They do daytime parties. So usually
around 11 noon, the DJ will start up and then
they do daytime parties and they're clothing
optional. The whole place is clothing optional.
You can be naked. You can walk outside naked.
You can wear sweatpants and sweatshirts, which
I did a few times this last weekend I was there.
And you can literally wear whatever you want.
So it's whatever you're feeling. And then daytime
party lasts pretty much all day long. They do
games and pool games. It's really as long as
you want it to be. Oh, yeah. Because everybody's
outside having a great time until the club opens
up. Yeah, and that's usually around 8. So they
do on usually Thursdays or Fridays, they'll do
room crawls if you're there with a takeover.
Those are our favorites. So after the daytime
parties, we kind of go back to our room. We're
always hosting a room crawl, so we never get
to chill. But a lot of people around 4 or 5 o
'clock start. I'd say like three to five. They
all start going back from the pool and everybody
takes a shower, takes a nap, gets something to
eat. And we always have to skip that because
we're always too busy getting ready for the room
calls on Fridays. But on Friday nights or Thursday
nights, depending, they do room calls and you
go around and people will hand out shots. They'll
hand out water. They'll hand out snacks and cupcakes.
You'll get just random stickers, goody bags.
When we started doing room calls, It was just
people coming to the rooms where now people are
like putting themes into the rooms during the
room crawls. So like I've seen like, again, fire
and ice where they'll have like Goldschlager
shots and fireball shots. And they always have
like a voting process trying to win some kind
of prize. And then you get like a good bag. You
leave with something and you go to the next room.
Yeah. Just about every room has a goodie bag.
Yeah. We do stickers and we've done like bottle
openers. We've done key chains. We've we've done
all sorts of different kind of gifts. We've done
different like stress balls, pineapple stress
balls and necklaces. We always try to do something
like that. Yeah. We do candy in there and our
cards and stickers and whatever discount code,
whatever we've got. We put it in there and give
it all away. And then we usually do some type
of food. So you try to definitely eat, pace yourself.
If you're going to a room call, that's where
you'll get in the most trouble. It's a lot of
shots quickly. Very fast because you don't realize,
yeah, it catches up to you quickly. And it's
usually at the end of a long day in the pool.
So make sure you grab those waters that they
do. You'll get rooms to hand those out. Definitely,
definitely chug that sucker. Oh, yeah. That's
why we always tried to make our drink be like
an electrolyte drink and a water drink because
we wanted people to hydrate enough a little bit
and we tried to help any way we could because
people are... by the time they get to the room.
Well, that's how the margaritas and pizza started.
Yeah, because they just wanted people to eat
something. Yeah, look, we just need carbs. We
need to carb people up. Yeah, that's how that
started. Because we just were like, people were
not okay. And everybody was first starting going.
So everybody was so excited and just shot, shot,
shot, shot, shot. It was dangerous. So we got
pizza in our room and just pulled everybody into
our room to eat as a whole. It's always a good
idea. Make sure that you're drinking water. Make
sure that you're pacing yourself. Make sure you
realize how many shots you just take and keep
track of that because nobody wants to feel like
that. Nobody wants to pass out by 9 o 'clock
and miss everything. It happens to somebody every
time. It does. It happens quite often. But make
sure you're pacing yourself. And room crawls
are fun. And then, yeah, like we said, 8 o 'clock
-ish is usually when the party starts. And most
parties, takeovers and stuff, have a 360. camera
outside and you have a whole bunch of photo opportunities
and then you'll go into the club so i know a
swinger society they always have that night themed
as a backdrop and then they have the 360 yeah
and then i can't they had girls on stilts and
stuff like they have like entertainment going
in and stuff and then once you get in there it's
packed they need a bigger club yeah they do need
is a bigger club because it is insane when we
were there this weekend we got in the door and
it was so packed we couldn't even find a space
beyond inside the door it was insane so it's
it's loud too it's loud and it's hot and there's
a lot of people so i feel there's a lot of times
we're in there i like i need to go outside because
not because it's like i'm too hot i just start
feeling claustrophobic after a minute people
and then they have that fog machine yes that
literally while it's on you can't see anything
and i just and it's also get that claustrophobic
feeling and i can go outside for a few minutes
yeah we didn't make it much beyond the door and
then we were there maybe five ten minutes the
tops and that was the only time we had stepped
foot in it this past weekend but it's fun it's
fun if you like i like to go in there when i'm
feeling dancey and i want to dance and stuff
i love dancing so i do like to try and get in
there but like this past weekend i can't i couldn't
even move i couldn't even get to anywhere to
dance and there was no room to dance so I didn't
get to dance this weekend but it's okay we had
fun we had hot tap time but then yes normally
we get too hot or too loud or too overwhelmed
or whatever and we don't last in there too long
most times because so we go out and that's why
we always put our costumes on they always have
a theme of some sort at the party and you'll
have a theme and then I just stopped putting
as much effort into secrets costumes as I do
with the rest of them because they last maybe
An hour. Maybe. Yeah. It's always like very disposable.
We always spend an hour or two in the club. It's
like, all right. Then we get like a small groove
and we end up back at the pool. And that's what
doing all the videos and the pictures and the
360s and all that stuff. Maybe an hour. And yeah,
normally we're like, nah, we're going to go and
get in the hot tub or get in the pool and we're
done. We're good. Yeah, so we don't put much
thought into our costumes anymore. It's just
not a thing. Most of it is. Make sure that it's
light and flowy. We try to be comfortable. Secrets
is very much vacation mode vibe. It is. Wear
stuff that's light. Yeah. Not hot. Easy to take
off. Yeah, easy to take off. The less the better.
It depends on the theme. I just ordered my costume
for the pirate theme. And that's going to be
the most clothes I've ever worn at Secrets. Oh,
not me. I'm not doing that. I was supposed to
like the costume to finish it. You're supposed
to wear like boots or something. I'm like, I'm
wearing flip flops. That's more piratey than
boots. You know, pirates love their flip flops.
Heck yeah. Pirates and their flip flops. Yeah,
there's usually a theme of some sort. And you
do, you know, you do your little. swing our thing
and show up and do all that but yeah it's much
more fun in the pool in the hot tub depending
on what season it was cold this weekend i think
when we go in nine days i feel like it's going
to warm up so i do because it was down like 45
49 degrees and it was seasonably cold freezing
this year we were all about sweatpants and sweatshirts
as soon as we possibly could and we did hot tub
but there was no oh i am For sure. No swimming.
I am for sure making sure I'm taking sweatpants
this time. Oh, yeah. Those are the best. A hoodie
or two. And my fluffy pineapple robe. It was
still cold this past week. I don't know. I'm
hoping in the next nine days it warms up. But
I'm not too optimistic. I'm preparing myself
to be cold again. Because it said 80s. But, man,
at nighttime it got freezing cold. And I was
numb. It was so cold still. They do have hot
tubs. They have two hot tubs there. And then
they just have a new tiki bar section, which
is really cool. It has a dance floor and like
a DJ booth area. And then it has another bar
and some seating and tables. And next to that,
my favorite part is the fire pits. There's three
fire pits with a ton of chairs around them. And
then they have a couple pool tables, all that,
you know, table tennis, all of that little. bags
and stuff like that they have a little courtyard
type thing but that's a nice addition and then
they moved the chair the big chair the infamous
chair over there so it's a lot easier to get
pictures because there's not people's bedrooms
couple years it's been weird to get pictures
because it's always been like next to construction
zones yeah and there's those rooms right there
i just never liked where it was sitting before
like it was always in it showed the hallway with
people's bedrooms and you had to be careful and
plus it was right in the courtyard so you had
to worry about just taking pictures in front
of everybody in the pool and stuff so i like
where it's at now but yeah and that's kind of
the schedule i mean depends on if there's a takeover
it really depends on a few things but definitely
go on the website and see what's going on and
they'll have the schedule on secrets website
with all the day party themes and what kind is
going on in the games and stuff hey there listeners

of. So, other than the pool, there's... and the
club. There's also playroom and a dungeon. We've
never been in the playroom. Not once. We have
not been in the playrooms. For one, for me personally,
you have to get naked to go in, and I don't really
love that. And then for two, the entire place
is a playroom. You can play anywhere you want,
and everyone has a bed available and a room.
So it's like, you know, we just never. we just
never have went back yeah and last time we were
like we're going into the playroom this time
we are we have to we have so many new people
we're gonna go in there and take a tour with
them because we've never been in the playrooms
but yeah you have to be nude and it's just not
my 100 my jam yeah You like being naked at your
own pace. You don't like being told. I hate it
when you have to be told to get naked. It's not
the fact that, because we just talked about how
like, oh, it's like, I love being naked to Seekers,
but don't tell me I have to be naked. It changes.
Yeah, it changes everything. They have the dungeon
we have been to, and it's personally my favorite
dungeon I've ever been to. I love it in there.
That's like our cave. We need to go in there
too. Yeah, they have a lot of different. Like,
obviously, just about any other dungeon. They
got St. Andrew's Cross. They have a bed with
a stock at the footboard. They have massage tables
and stuff to do, like, electro stim, wax play,
stuff like that. They have all their own toys
that you can try out there. And they're all...
sanitized there's sanitizer right there and they
have all the tools you can need it's good sized
for a lot of people but they have a lot of different
areas in it it's my favorite my personal favorite
but and then as you go out into the courtyard
there's the pools there's two there's a little
pool and there's the new brand new pool which
is so nice and it's changed everything with the
dj booth over there yeah i still am amazed on
how little that old pool is i know i can't believe
we used to cram every person in that pool we
were talking about i was talking about that with
some somebody like everybody was in that pool
before they got the new one which is enormous
i look at this old pool that's still there we
call it the conversation pool now because and
that big pool saturday There was no, you couldn't
even get in the pool. There was no room to move.
I have no idea how we did secrets. I don't know.
I have no idea. I don't know. We were sitting
there just talking about that this weekend. I
was like, totally different, totally different
place now that they added that pool. I mean,
the whole place is just so many changes. Yeah,
just since the four years we started, since we
started going. That place has changed a ton.
They got new doors with new keypads. Oh, do they
have new keypads? That was always a hassle. Yeah,
they're starting. And now you can order food
to your room. You just scan it. Oh, really? Yeah,
but speaking of that, they have the tiki bar
out there. And you can order food pretty much
all day long. They have food. And it's good food.
Chicken Caesar wraps. That's where it's at. Get
the chicken Caesar wraps. That's our go -to.
I repel everybody to eat the chicken Caesar wraps.
I did have pizza this weekend. Barbecue chicken
pizza was good. I mean, all of the food we've
ever had there. I've never had bad food there.
I've heard people talk trash about it, but I
personally have never had anything bad there.
They've really revamped the whole food part of
Secrets over the last year or two. They've really
come a long way, and now they do breakfast and
stuff, so it's really nice. Like I said, in your
room, you'll have a little barcode thing, QR
code that you can scan on your phone and they'll
bring it right to your room. Nice. Yeah, it's
really nice. Saves a lot of standing at the bar.
Well, last time I went, I used that because I
had the kiosk. Yeah, they do have kiosks now.
That's nice. They're coming. They're getting
there. That's what I used the last time. The
room service type deal thing. That's pretty awesome.
Yeah, it's a really good addition for sure. And
then. yeah you can order food up there and obviously
drinks and all of that and that pretty much is
secrets like the property of secrets they have
a little store there's a little gift store if
you forget anything or need anything and then
parking they only let you have one car in the
parking lot now so they which as they should
because there's not a parking yeah that is the
Parking has always been a pain in the secrets.
It's one plus to having a room on the outside
is you get to park your car. Well, the idea is
you get to park your car at your room and unload
and load and everything there. But like this
weekend, you can't find a parking spot near your
room anyway. So the whole time you're there,
you're just like carrying everything. Yeah. Either
way, that's always a hit miss there. And now
they have a field next door that everybody parks
in. And that whole entire field was full Saturday.

property. And then I kind of wanted to talk about
what to bring. We've been getting that question
all of the time. What do we pack? What do we
need? And I'm going to tell you, the less, the
better. I want to say. You don't need everything
you're going to think you do. No. That's my tip.
I always overpack. That's my tip. The same. We
all do. Everybody does it. We all do it. I only
end up wearing half of what we took. Most of
the time you're wearing your bathing suit. And
you're just wearing pink. Take multiple bathing
suits so you don't have to put a wet one on the
next day. Yes, yes. Lots of bathing suits and
bring your own towels. I would bring your own
towels. They do have towels you can borrow, but
they make you... Give your driver's license.
Yeah, you have to give them your driver's license
as collateral so you bring the towels back. That's
what I mean. They're like the typical hotel situation
where there's never enough and then they're always
super thin and they're just not right. So we
always bring lots of beach towels, big beach
towels. If you want a chair in the morning, you're
going to have to go down in the morning and get
your chairs because they're also first come,
first serve. Yeah, claim that spot before everybody
else gets up. Get your coffee and go claim a
chair because that's the only way you're going
to get one for the day, especially on a Saturday.
Especially if you want one close to the pool.
Yeah. You can find a chair. No? This last week,
there was no chairs. We had to... Wait until
about 5 p .m. to finally find a chair. Oh, really?
That we could sit in until people started going
to eat and stuff. So it really just depends on,
again, if there's a takeover or not. But just
make sure you pack your typical pool day, beach
day stuff, your sun hatch, your sunscreen, your
beach bag. I see it every year. More than one
person goes out because it's March. It's going
to be the first weekend in April that we're there.
A lot of people are coming from the Midwest where
it's been cold. They go out there. First sun
of the year. First sun of the year and they get
fried over the weekend. I make that mistake every
year. And I haven't done any tanning this year
yet. I'm ghost white. You need to keep up on
that lotion. You will get a tan with sunscreen,
people. You will get a tan. Just to make sure
we keep up with that. Yes. Yeah. Just your typical
pool, hotel, vacation stuff. Make sure your towels.
You're going to need your theme outfits. And
then usually just like a club and any other event
or anything, we all do change into lingerie or
less clothing or bikini or nude or what we usually
dress down. So bring something that you're going
to want to wear in the evening. So all of your
bathing suits, so many bathing suits, any of
that. sunglasses hair tie all that kind of yeah
make sure stuff for your lips and then you're
gonna want to pack water and yeah some food you
can eat there the whole time but i do suggest
like snacks and they do have certain hours a
case of water yeah yeah make sure you have water
we always bring electrolytes our own liquor and
stuff for like drinks in our room in your room
if you want to do any jello shots or because
you can't take your drinks into the pool area
I forgot that. But you can drink in your room.
Yeah, you can bring your own alcohol to your
room. Especially like during the room crawls
and stuff, a lot of people carry their cups around
and are sipping on something while they're visiting
all the rooms. Yeah, make sure you have a cup
of some sort. Yeah, with room crawls and stuff
or just, yeah, visiting, walking around the halls
and stuff. We always take a cumbler. Just have
something. Even like this last time I went, it
was just water in it. And that's how I was hydrating
in between the pool and all of that. Just have
some. tumbler and you're gonna have to dump it
out and show them that it's empty before you
walk into the yeah not even ice you have to they
search your bag and everything so make sure that
you leave your alcohol in your bedroom but bring
snacks bring food we always bring meats and cheeses
and just stuff that you can snack on triscuits
and wheat thins and stuff you can just grab real
fast because the kitchen's not always open there
is a wall across the street so you can run like
there's a There's things around where you can
get something to eat. We try not to leave as
much as possible because you don't want to leave
once you're there. Typical Orlando traffic. If
you leave that place, you're not coming back
until a minimum of 30 minutes later. Even to
just go across the street. It takes 30 minutes
to go anywhere in Orlando. It's just part of
vacation. It's a typical vacation. If you run
anywhere, it's going to take a minute. But you
can leave and come back and stuff. But I just
suggest snacks and water, non -alcoholic drinks
as well. Oh, yeah. Alcoholic. 100%. Really, honestly,
your costumes. And I would always pack like sweatpants
and sweatshirts. You know, your normal. Comfy
clothes. Comfy clothes because you're going to
want that too. And I always pack one or two just
like regular vanilla outfits. In case we want
to go out to dinner. Yeah, a lot of times you'll
have people be like, what's your dinner plans?
And a lot of people do. There's a good Mexican
place across the street. There's like a steakhouse
down the street too. Yeah, there's a few things.
Sometimes people, you'll get invited to like
a little get together dinner and stuff. Especially
if you're there during the week. A lot of times
that happens then. So yeah, bring some outfits
just in case you have to leave. Don't make the
mistake of only bringing your swinger shirt.
Yeah. I have gone across the street in swinger
stuff to the Wawa. And I, everybody, I got pictures
with people because I'm here to fuck somebody's
wife shirt. I had that and it's like rainbow,
like lettering, like pink and green and blues.
And then I had those multicolored pineapple short,
like hoochie daddy swim trunks. And I just walk
in, there were those and flip -flops. Definitely
a secrets outfit. Everybody's staring. I made
a couple jokes with some people. One guy looked
at me like, secrets? I'm like, yeah. Like, they
know. They know. They know what's across the
street. Yeah. So, yeah. Bring a couple outfits
just in case you need to leave the property.
But for the most part, you honestly just need
a bathing suit and a towel. And you would be...
Fine to be at Secrets the entire time with just
that. That's all I really need. Yeah. And we
highly suggest buying a band at the office if
it's your first time going. Get the band. It
will save your life. They have, so it's a normal
touch keypads, but they sell bracelets that are
rubber that you don't have to keep your... room
key they can program the bracelet to get into
your room so nice and we can both have one you
buy them yeah everybody that's i think they're
like 10 15 bucks and they reprogram them every
time you go 100 worth so worth money and every
anybody who's in your room can get one so that
everybody has access to the room whenever you
want yeah so it's really really nice to have
yeah the prices are all on their website you'll
find all of that information all the hours for
everything all the party themes everything you
need to know is secrets hideaways website and
google google you can get some different clips
certain rooms have facebook groups and facebook
pages and certain like followings and a lot of
people that book pretty regularly and the owners
have little facebook pages or instagram pages
and stuff so you can get a little bit different
views and Yeah. And more pictures. Yes. Certain
rooms do have their own social media pages. The
one we're staying in this time has one with a
Facebook page and stuff on it. Oh, I didn't even
know that. So I got some extra pictures and stuff.
So yeah, Google, it'll all pop up. Just put your
room number and secrets hideaway and have a good
time. Secrets is so much fun. Just you can make
it as crazy and wild as you want it to be and
stay up the entire time and just party. Or you
can make it the most chill. relaxing yeah vacation
whatever you want it to be yeah it's again it's
what we tell everybody all the time exactly what
you want it just like the lifestyle it can be
whatever you want it to be i mean granted on
a takeover on a saturday it's a little harder
to have a quiet calm vacation everywhere i feel
like with you you close the blinds and no i mean
to like have a chill relaxing calm vacation oh
yeah i'm doing all that So I recommend coming
Monday. Sundays are good. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday.
Sundays are nice because you have a good day
party. It's still kind of the takeover vibe -ish.
Sunday after a takeover is... But there's a lot
less people. People there, a lot less people.
There's still a DJ usually. Everybody's still
buzzing from the weekend. But it's still pretty
relaxing. Way more relaxing than a Friday, Saturday,
even Thursday. But you can still get in some...
shenanigans if you want yeah sunday's my sunday's
our favorite day we always recommend if you're
going for a takeover stay sunday that's been
our biggest tip every time someone asks for a
tip because it's way different vibe everyone
is struggling and trying to get home to work
on monday and it's miserable just watching everybody
like lug all their stuff to the car and we're
like let's just not that's how we started staying
sunday is we woke up and Saw everybody going
past our window. Just looking miserable. Like
rolling their luggage out. Because. Being it's
an old Ramada. It's an old motel. There is no
elevator. So everybody that's on the second floor.
Has to carry all of their shit. Downstairs and
to their car. And. There's like one or two luggage
carts in the whole place. And when everybody's
leaving at the same time, you can't get one.
That was one. So people are carrying and rolling
and all their shit. I watched a guy carry a full
-sized cooler down those stairs. And it was full
of stuff. You hear the icy water sloshing around.
And he had big muscles, big arms. And he was
struggling to get down there. I was like, uh
-uh, whatever. Never. 120 pounds when they got
stuff in them. You can't convince me to stay
upstairs. I don't know. I know. We bring too
much stuff. I tell everybody that. I'm like,
I always recommend the first floor. I'm like,
just because. Like, there are some really cool
rooms upstairs. There is. There's some really
nice ones. But carrying. I know. We bring so
much stuff. It'd be different if we didn't take
as much. Yeah. If it was just me and you going
for a quiet thing. Yeah, that'd be different.
It'd be way different. If we just had a couple
bags. Yeah. Like. Even like four like suitcases
would be no big deal. We bring our van because
we pack the entire van full of stuff. We bring
too much stuff. So I can't imagine carrying all
of that stuff upstairs. It's hard enough when
you're on an interior and unloading. But that's
just us. Yeah. So that Sunday, I just walked
straight. I got up, walked straight to the lobby
and like, can I get another day in the same room?
they're like no problem and then we stayed that
sunday and everybody that was from out of town
were like waiting for their flights and they
could hang out in our room we all went to the
pool just hung out and had a couple drinks and
relaxed and then when everybody kind of dispersed
with their flights or whatnot and they stuff
they couldn't take like their food and stuff
they just put it in our so we had like Whole
dinners and things. We usually. Like that night's
usually when we take a lot. We finally get time
to take naps. And we take a sweet nap. And now
we did the podcast last time. We got Chinese.
Like we usually order food. Last time was the
first Sunday. Since we started going to Secrets.
That I had a voice on Sunday. Yeah. Every Sunday.
Before this last time we went. I had no voice.
I was hoarse all of Sunday. Everybody was like,
are you okay? I just can't talk. Secrets takes
it out of you. You're dehydrated. It takes me
a good solid week or so to find out. We're not
as zen as we used to be. We don't bounce back
like that. It'll take it out of you. That pretty
much sums up Secrets. That's pretty much the
gist of everything. We are so excited to come
back. We have eight days. yeah it's coming up
fast next thursday we will be so excited and
