Tropics – Portsmouth

This is the best place along the coast. Nice chilled place to relax in. Join in or not as you choose. They are upgrading the showers as they were letting the place down. Lovely good food is available as well as a warm welcome as you enter. The place is kept clean and tidy. Plenty of play rooms to explore. Different atmospheres to enjoy.

Staff are always very friendly make u feel relaxed

Went to a TGirl tea party and had a great time. Staff were really super friendly and the facilities were great.

I haven't visited the sauna since the fire some years ago. It has been extended and remodelled but is a little like a 'rabbit warren' and a bit sleazy. On the main first floor there is the reception and changing area together with a TV lounge. Also on this floor is the wet area including a sauna, steam room and some showers which were not working on my visit. Additional showers are close to the changing room. There is also a sling and g.h.s.. You go down to the Jacuzzi and up to a top floor section with two video rooms and the other section with private rooms, dark rooms etc.  The premises have the advantage of an outside smoking area with an additional Jacuzzi. The clients were of mixed ages - from late 20’s up to 60/70 and quite a bit of action was taking place. The staff is friendly but little attempt was made to keep the wet areas dry or clean.  I saw no cleaning carried out during the 4 hours I was there! I also found that the drinks were overpriced in that a bottle of ‘coke’ cost £2 whereas one would expect to pay only £1.50. Much play is made of the parking behind the premises but this seems full of cars which are using the 'The Real Escape’ next door.  The suggested alternative is the nearby Sainsbury, but this probably has limited parking times.  Otherwise there is the expensive NCP open Car Park opposite - £7.50 for more than 3 hours.
