Vanilla Swingers – A swinger podcast for newbies, by newbies in the lifestyle
Insomnia isn’t just a name – it’s a warning. If you step into this Berlin institution expecting a quiet night, you’re in the wrong club. This legendary techno-fueled sex club is part rave, part dungeon, and all about pushing your pleasure threshold. One night you’ll be sipping bubbly and watching aerial bondage; the next, you’re sandwiched between strangers on a leather platform next to the DJ booth. Equal parts swinger soirée, BDSM bash, and Berlin underground chaos – Insomnia is the erotic fever dream you never knew you needed (but will probably crave again).

👀 First Impressions –Stepping into Insomnia, you feel it instantly – EDM bass throbs in your chest, mirrored walls shimmer in neon, and there’s just enough mystery to ignite your nerve. On weekends, this place pulses with energy – young, fit, and hungry partygoers dancing, touching, and kissing under flashing lights. Weekdays shift to a subdued, almost conspiratorial hush, where curious explorers and couples edge into the corners, finding play in the shadows. Bouncer checks your outfit and attitude—no flimsy excuses, darling. Phones are off-limits, so you’re free to feel everything.
🎟️ Inside Tour –This club is compact, but it holds surprises. Downstairs? A curated playground featuring a dancefloor, swanky couches, and open-play beds that invite curiosity. Follow the heavy curtains upstairs to more intimate corners—hot tubs, a snug sauna, and curtained-off plush spots for couples or solo adventurers. And don’t miss the basement dungeon—dark, daring, and dripping with leather vibes. A few neatly-maintained changing stalls greet you at the entrance—some guests flaunt jockstraps and harnesses right out in public, so modesty is a second thought. Clean lines, sexy lighting, and zero fluff: this is functional eroticism, not Instagram props.
👙 Dress Code – Insomnia’s got that Berlin energy – dark, dirty, and decadently dressed. This isn’t the place for polos and pleats. Think leather harnesses, latex bodysuits, corsets, nipple clamps, and enough black to make Wednesday Addams blush. Men: a plain tee and jeans will get you turned away faster than you can say “safe word.” You can arrive in streetwear (it’s a residential neighborhood, after all), but bring your kinky best, packed and ready to slip into once you’re past the door and have a photo ready to show the bouncers. Trainers are totally fine (you’ll be dancing, sweating, grinding), but skip the boring boxers, especially if your partner’s rocking a €300 latex catsuit. If you’re a solo male tourist? You’d better have a killer outfit pic on your phone to show the bouncer. Kinky confidence gets you in, boring gets you bounced.
“The focus here is on a more sexual party concept, which is why the dress code also matches the motto and aims to encourage more freedom among the participants, e.g. black, sexy underwear (this applies to men!) see-through shirts, fetish, vinyl, latex, leather, lingerie, corsets, stockings, raunchy negligées, babydolls, kimono, etc.“
🍒 Playrooms – Action happens everywhere, and consent is key. Upstairs and in curtained rooms, you’ll see soft encounters: a hand here, a partner whisper there. The sectional beds flanking the dancefloor encourage spontaneous play, and people dive in knee-first. Downstairs, the dungeon hums with shared energy – scenes in motion, watches in silhouette, permission always requested. Got a hot tub wet dream? Beware: some men can be a bit too enthusiastic. A firm “no” will get you respect fast—but it’s best to go as a couple for ultimate safety. Nudity’s optional, and interaction is built on asking: your space, your rules. And yes, they’ve thought of everything—clean towels, bins, kneeling pads—so you can play hard and stay classy.
🔥 Vibe Check – Weekends are electric. The crowd is young-ish (25–40), diverse, fit, and curious. Play pulses through the night: an impromptu group scene, a basement BDSM trio, or a hot-tub tease. Weeknights can be quieter, slower, almost meditative—but if you come with an open mind, you might stumble into an underground spark. Singles don’t dominate; couples and women hold power. Energy’s consensual, respectful, and undeniably horny. You’ll glimpse primal desire, but it’s always anchored in choice.
✅ Should You Go? – If your pulse races to bass, heat, and possibility, Insomnia is your orgasmic playground. Seek out the dance-floor co-ed steam, the velvet darkness of dungeons, or just some naughty midnight intrigue. Date nights, solo forays, group outings—it works. Pro tip: pick your night. Saturday’s a full-throttle festival; Sunday and weekdays? Watch the heat, build your own—or risk a slow burn. Either way, you’ll leave with adrenaline in your veins and stories under your skin.
