Rambone,

Thanks for two thorough and balanced reviews - very helful. Both clubs sound great for their own respective reasons. My only disappointment is to read about your less than positive reconnaissance of Villa Vertigo. I love their luxury concept, videos/pics on the website, and the promotion of it on TER (from which I wouldn't have otherwise discovered FKKs before I did).

I may try VV anyway while there in August, just to ensure I give them a fair shake. Will report back.

Get there early.

Also, I've gotten action in the kino. That's usually where the public stuff happens.

1) Friday is even better in my experience.

2) DE product is mostly miss, some hit. glad to hear you got lucky with the local talent.

3) Parking lot dude is ok. Don't worry about him.

I had a disappointing time at Goldentime - I won't talk about it here because I've written about it under the Bernds mini-review elsewhere on the site (see link below) - but I couldn't recommend it

At one time Planet Happy Garden was the big player in the Brothel game. Yes Brothel since PHG is not really an FKK although it gets lumped in with them. The owners of PHG had a falling out which led to Villa Vertigo. Golden Time is the third attempt by the owner to open a club. Previous attempts failed so maybe three times is a charm. GT built its business on its relationship with RO, when they first started the majority of women were from RO. Even before the EU changed things.

Golden Time is one of the best run clubs in my opinion due to their ability to change. If you noticed the majority of customers are Dutch then German. Golden Time is also one of the clubs that is famous for refusing entry to guests. Due to the high volume of customers they can afford to be picky. It all depends who is working the front door. If lucky enough you'll be present when a fellow arrives and is not allowed in. They buzz at the door only to hear the desk staff say "Sorry not today". If that does not get them to leave one of the security staff comes to the gate and has a chat. It's done quietly but its done.

GT keeps costs down by using staff from RO and other 3rd world nations. Such as the security staff, which the head security guy is from KR. He's a X war hero who fought in the war. The other 3 security staff are also X military and boxing people. Almost all the towel boys work for much less then normal staff, they live at the club and thus have low overhead.  This allows the club to have more staff at lower costs. Some of the higher paid staff (bar girls) are locals and from Poland. It's similar to the immigrants in the US who come to work. However these people work for a few months then go home. They don't live in Germany.

The security staff will direct you where to park, keeping some open spots in front for upper management.
There is parking on the street which is also managed by security due to complaints by neighbors. I agree they aren't friendly but then that's not their job. If you know door staff well you'll be greeted by a kiss an hug. When you see this done you'll know who the frequent good guests are from the wannabes.

GT has made many changes over the years, they weren't always the top club. The women often shift from PHG, VV, LR, SAMYA and Ying Yang (Dutch counterpart) just over the border. Food was not always good or served outside. Smoking has always been a problem from the start. Note the AC that was installed (vents in the ceiling) and the fold out windows which most are never open. Then again the owner smokes cigars and so do many of the visitors. Smoking at FKK clubs is common, get used to it.

German women are a varied bunch, its said those from Koln are better providers. Some are of mixed decent so that factors in. It really comes down to your chemistry some German gals will provide great service if they like you.

Public BJs do happen if you know where to look. Not so much in the main lounge but they have happened in the lounge. Try the outdoors, the area where the sauna and the cubby hole just out the back door of the bar area where you enter the sauna area. Obviously the Kino has public BJ's and it's a public place.
If that interested you then visit Schieferhof (Bernd's)

While Palace in Frankfurt is a nightmare for those who don't like aggressive hard sell, I agree a nice soft sell works for me. If done correctly. I once had a talk with a gal I've known for a while at the clubs. She insisted that it's difficult for women to approach a guy, rejection being the worst part. Even if it means nothing to us its still a blow to their ego. I suggest you make eye contact and then smile alot, this often brings your selection to you. Or walk by and say HELLO, remember to smile. Remember we're all walking 50 Euro bills to these women. They know to get that money they need to smile and start a transaction. There will always be those who will never approach a man.
