Apologies if this is teaching some of you to suck eggs but when I was researching ahead of my travels, I couldn't find a huge amount of information about FKK Clubs and Artemis in particular. My first time in Berlin and I knew that I had to try FKK Artemis to see what the fuss was all about and to experience one of these clubs for myself. Hopefully, this will provide some help to anybody thinking of visiting Artemis (or another FKK) for the first time as I'll admit that it was a little daunting.
Upon arrival, there is plenty of parking out front if you're driving yourself and taxis do drop off fairly regularly. Uber also an option but for price and convenience, in my opinion, the best way of getting there is to use the S Bahn and take a train to Westkreuz station, which is less than a 5 minute walk from the club itself.
Reception is immediately in front of you and if you're new to this, don't be afraid to say so as the receptionist will run you through the basics. I paid 90 Euro for entry to the club, which covered any food and all soft drinks. If you fancy an alcoholic drink, they're available but at a cost and I'm not quite sure how these are paid for as I limited myself to soft drinks only. After paying your entry fee, you're given a gown, wristband which I think allows you to leave and come back that day and a wrist worn fob for the lockers and guided in the direction of the changing room. Your fob opens the locker by wafting it in front of the lock. It's completely secure with enough room for clothing and maybe a small backpack (which is searched before you're allowed in for obvious reasons). There are shower facilities and flip flop style footwear in all sizes up to a UK12. Make sure you get the size, which fits you as I had to go a size larger and nearly ended up faceplanting a couple of times!
Once you're ready, the options are many and varied. You could:
1. Head into the main (rather smoky) lounge for a drink and to meet some of the ladies who are there on the day.
2. Head downstairs to the Kino where there is always something hardcore showing if you need to pluck up the courage before choosing option 1.
3. Head downstairs to the sauna rooms or one of the masseurs (these are proper masseurs with no happy endings etc) who charge for whatever service you're interested in (head and neck, full body or whatever) and are paid separately.
4. Head to the buffet or if it's a nice day the pool area outside for a bit of a chill and to gather your thoughts.
Before going any further it's important to say that anything you get up to with the ladies or masseuses is paid for separately. You can take cash with you and leave it in your locker or make use of the onsite ATM if you don't quite have enough Euros on you, which could end up being quite dangerous with all of the fun to be had in the establishment.
The main lounge is really very smoky and if you're a non-smoker it's a little off putting but the number of variety of beautiful woman mostly in their birthday suits helps you get over this very quickly. I decided to treat myself and had half an hour with a busty blonde German lady (Lena) and an equally busty brunette Hungarian lady (Nikki) and after agreeing a price, I was directed to the rear of the property where there are a number of outside rooms. In poorer weather, I think that the entertainment takes place on the upper floor so no need to freeze your balls off wandering outside. 280 Euro for a great lesbian show, OWO and sex with both. With hindsight, I might've just met with one lady and saved a little for another encounter later but they were both 9/10's and I was nervous and horny so just went with the flow and had a bloody marvelous time with two fun and very sexy ladies.
Once the time is up or you've managed to cum, that's it and there will either be a gentle ushering out / renegotiating for more time for the former or a clean up for the latter. No money is paid until after you've finished your time together and the lady / ladies will walk back to the changing room with you and wait outside for you to either get cash from your locker or to use the ATM for payment. It's all pretty relaxed and a lot of fun once you've got your bearings and accustomed to other blokes walking around either in robes or not.
I love Germany and Berlin in particular so I will undoubtedly become a regular visitor to Artemis as your 90 Euro covers you for the entire day. There is a shorter option for a two hour ticket and this might be sensible if you're just dipping your toe for the first time but it's not that much cheaper.
I don't know how many ladies usually ply their trade but there were at least 20 to 25 when I rocked up mid afternoon on a sunny Thursday in September. Some of them were 10/10 in the looks department and the vast majority were 8/10 in my opinion - there should definitely be somebody there who will float your boat and if not, you can just chill out and wait until others turn up as there are no set times with the ladies.
Hopefully this might help answer some of the basics but please feel free to ask any questions and I'll do my best to help based on my limited experience. If you're heading to Berlin any time soon, I'd highly recommend a visit.
