About Us
James and Carmen
Secrets Hideaway Resort and Spa™ is the culmination of James & Carmen’s desire to create a Lifestyle resort, for Swingers, by Swingers. With an intimate understanding of the Lifestyle atmosphere, the King & Queen of Swing started out with “Hedo Events" and began throwing exceptional Lifestyle parties at various venues throughout Florida. Yet, despite the success of the Hedo parties, James felt something was missing. He wanted to create an environment that catered to the unique culture of the Lifestyle, a place where friends could gather not only to party, but to actually getaway and luxuriate in the care-free nature of the Lifestyle. They knew they needed to find a hotel - a place for friends to both play & stay.
Thus, with the collaboration of various Lifestyle groups, Hedo Events and Club Secret® were born in Kissimmee, FL. Based in the current location, Club Secret® was able to find a permanent home, and open its doors every weekend for like-minded guests to gather. In spring 2011, Hedo Events introduced its first hotel “takeover”, Swingers Break®, and created a wildly successful, clothing optional, multi-day, Lifestyle event.
Over the next few years, James and Carmen hosted multiple hotel takeovers, but still had a desire to create a truly private, members-only, Lifestyle resort experience. Fueled by the love and dedication of their Lifestyle family, the King & Queen were finally able to fully takeover the hotel and create a first-of-its-kind, 5-Star, Lifestyle resort, Secrets Hideaway Resort & Spa™.
