floridarob Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 This is my 1st time here....had a long trip to get here and was soo tired last night I got tired of guys on Grindr either the free offers from guys not my type or the money ones asking for 300 brl and not willing to go lower and wanted by the hour. I messaged a few guys on Skokka and about the same thing. A friend of mine says he hates it here, when he's been, lots of guys never showed up for him, wasting time. I'm aware of the 2 GP saunas, not many glowing reviews from what I've found/heard.... Any advice for me?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babybear2 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Try those 2 GP saunas and make a report 😜 floridarob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpaulo Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Personally I liked the two saunas.... one was pretty rundown and the guys tend to be on the rough side, but that's what I like. Years ago there was one GP sauna with beautiful muscle guys, but there were only a few guys there, it was like one of those expensive clothing shops with only a few pieces of clothing on display. The guy I spent a while with was completely aloof. There are some interesting towns close to there you can visit. Ouro Preto was the one that stuck out to me, it's one of the few places I've seen in Brazil with its colonial appearance still more or less intact. floridarob and Xclay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Xclay Posted August 31 Members Share Posted August 31 I've visited Belo Horizonte four times over the past twenty years and usually found it interesting. However, I made the mistake once of visiting during its intense, nonstop, rainy season. Belo Horizonte has several gay saunas but only two that (to the best of my knowledge) have regular GPs. Sauna Olimpo BH Rua dos Timbiras, 2635 - Santo Agostinho, Belo Horizonte https://maps.app.goo.gl/VpAaetLLPUHtmaLm7 Yes, anywhere from five to 15 GPs, some quite hot, on the evenings I visited. An unexpected amount of client-client action that was fun. A thread here a year or two ago said Olimpo was experimenting with nonGP nights, but I do not have an update on that. Sauna 1097 Rua dos Guajajaras, 1097 - Centro, Belo Horizonte https://maps.app.goo.gl/ubWZgYacwTpENasn7 A few blocks away from Olimpo is 1097. Yes, seedy Sauna 1097 is, as XPaulo wrote, rundown with skinny rough GPs who he liked but were not for me. Ouro Preto is indeed the most famous colonial town in the state of Mina Gerais. It is about 60 miles away and definitely worth a day trip, IMHO. Hope your visit turns out to be enjoyable. xpaulo and floridarob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members buttercawan Posted August 31 Members Share Posted August 31 I like BH. I always include BH when I visited Brazil. Besides SP, it's the only city (that I know of) that has a few 24-hour sex venues. Keeping me entertained after the GP sauna. Olimpo is still the main venue for GP sauna. They did experiment with non-GP for a bit. It must not be very profitable as the GPs are now back on the menu. Heard there are plenty of new GPs lately. 1097 is seedy and bareback heaven is still correct. Those who like the New Meio Mundo (RJ) types might like it there.

Popular Post floridarob Posted August 31 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 31 So...went to 1097 tonight, sat at a table with locals and was sort of comical how I knew more about Brasil saunas than they did, lol. The advice I took from them though was the going rates here is 70-100 MAX I ended up wanting to go with 4 guys, not all at once but was a very difficult decision between which one. As I'm not a very shy guy , I enlisted the guidance of the bartenders...was a good choice, and so much fun. I'm going to Rio Monday and he said he is too, but on the bus. We have plans do do a 3-way tomorrow with the 3rd to be decided still.....my 1st time here has been totally worth it! buttercawan, reader, ShivRoy and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been wanting to return to BH, it's been 10 years, but was worried 1097 and Olimpo might be gone. Going back for sure after seeing your post. Thank you!!! I loved those skinny boys, although I think my favourite at 1097 probably used violence to get what he wanted in his life outside of the sauna. I would not have agreed to meet him anywhere else. floridarob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Men (formerly Sauna 24-horas, near Olimpo), Dedalos, Kratos Cine and Sauna, Zoom Cruising bar. Used to have Chili Pepper but closed. Olimpo and Zoom are 24 hrs (or until 5 in the morning) on the weekends only I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members buttercawan Posted September 1 Members Share Posted September 1 1 hour ago, 12is12 said: Could u please describe what goes on in these places? Yes - Opens 24 hours. 2 floors. 2 saunas, 2 steams, cabins, dark rooms, chill TV room, bar, glory holes, group playroom etc. Most crowded weekend nights. https://www.instagram.com/yesmensclub_24hrs/ Dedalos - another branch of Dedalos SP. Same setup. https://www.instagram.com/dedalosbh/ Kratos - Access to both cinema and sauna (or either). The last time I was there, the cinema was closed. It's a bit run down and seedy. A steam room, dark sauna, cabins and bar. https://www.instagram.com/kratos_sauna/ Zoom - Cruise bar similar to Dedalos. https://x.com/ZoomBar10 xpaulo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12is12 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 I marked them all in googlemap. Kratos has THE worst reviews. Doesnt seem 2 make a lot of commercial sense, 2 have 3 saunas bunched together: olimpo, yes, 1097. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
