The air hums softly. I step into L’Insolite and the lounge lights skim over velvet couches, a faint clink of glass mixing with low-tempo house beats. The naturist spa area glows warmer than the neon in the evening hall, inviting couples and solo guests to shed a bit of reservation before the social round begins. From the reception desk to the private lounges, the space feels like a curated event where consent and curiosity share the stage, and you notice the unspoken etiquette that keeps conversations flowing without force. The room smells of warm wood and citrus, and conversation threads form as naturally as a well-timed toast between new acquaintances.

The layout centers on a naturist area with sauna and hammam, a pub-style hub, private lounges, and a discotheque complete with cages and a video nook.

What goes down: social energy, zones, and etiquette
Trade-offs & Caveats: The scene thrives on sociability and curiosity, but it isn’t for guests seeking a strictly quiet, fully non-sexual night or those uncomfortable with nudity in spa zones; it’s better suited to couples and open-minded singles who value consent, clear boundaries, and a sociable rhythm. Not for anyone who wants a profoundly private, low-key evening or someone who isn’t prepared to adapt to a multi-partner dynamic.
