Dream Hook-Up Hostel Facilities
Connie Biesalski, Planet Backpack:
“A bar with lots of alcohol and a dance floor. Tropical climate = little clothing, lots of skin. Cheap private rooms or close to the beach or a pool. A condom machine. Many beautiful people.”
Cole Burmester, Four Jandals:
“Non-squeaking bunks.”
Kate McCulley, Adventurous Kate:
“Big, private, lockable bathrooms tricked out for handicap access (you can do a lot with the bars).”
Kiri Bowers, Travel Bumpkin:
“Two showers next to each other with nothing but glass in between. Voyeurism delight! Hostel ‘do not disturb’ signs in ready supply in the shower room.”
Erica Buist, Editor:
“My ultimate hook-up hostel would have a hot tub on a roof terrace. It’s a good place to meet and chat to strangers (“We’re in a hot tub together! Let’s be mates!”) and the setting is romantic enough for things to go further if you want them to.”
Caroline Eubanks, Caroline In The City:
“Thick walls.”
Val Bromann, SillyAmerica.com:
“A hostel where the beds are built into the walls with curtains in front so you are in your own little cubby. Nice and private.”
Adam Groffman, Travels of Adam:
“Hostels that have rooftop access (like many in the Middle East).”
Diana Edelman, D Travels Round:
“Late night private rooms available! Slide a credit card into a vacant private room and BAM.”
Talon Windwalker, 1Dad1Kid:
“It’s been so long since I’ve had any it wouldn’t require any special features except some privacy.”
Lauren Juliff, Neverending Footsteps:
“Every doorway would be a giant sponge vagina that you’d have to climb through to get to your room.”
Dream Hook-Up Hostel Atmosphere
Andrew Caldwell, AndrewCaldwell.org:
“Barry White on loop.”
Will Peach, TravelSexLife Editor:
“Full to the brim of Scandinavian girls all gunning for my heart. There’d have to be plush comfy sofas and a big screen showing an adaptation of my life on film with James Franco playing the part of myself, LL Cool J the role of Stephen and Justin Bieber cast as Michael. I could definitely imagine whiling a few hours away in that kind of hostel lounge.”
Jeannie Mark, The Nomadic Chick:
“Hot men who don’t speak English, so you can eliminate the chit-chat. Best combo ever.”
Theodora Sutcliffe, Travels With A 9 Year Old:
“Hot, and not too picky, men.”
Robert Schrader, Leave Your Daily Hell:
“No straight people.”
Alexandra Pucherelli, Fluent In Frolicking:
“Cheap private rooms, lots of booze, hammocks because this is still on my to ‘aahhhem in’ list.”
Jeremy Albelda, The World or Bust:
“One that lets you bring girls back from the outside world!”
Dream Hook-Up Hostel Complimentary Gifts
Lola DiMarco, Where In The World is Lola?:
“Condoms and lube my friends!”
Jaime Davila, Breakaway Backpacker:
“A condom bowl… sometime you just run out and need some available in the hostel. Oh and since it’s a hostel it must have a dorm so it would be nice if every bunk was built to withstand a good round of sex along with some curtain for privacy.”
Stephen Wright, TravelSexLife Editor:
“Backpacking in the States under 21 was always a bit of a pain when it came to drinking. The best hostels I stayed at always found a way around the country’s strict drinking laws, the most inventive of which was a Coke machine where the ‘Mountain Dew’ button delivered you a cold (if somewhat shaken-up) Miller beer. Keep the beers coming and it won’t be the only thing frothing up with delight.
