This review took a while to write, and is a difficult one indeed. Hoe has always been my favourite venue, and my venue of choice, but my last visit lacked the polished finesse that it did before lockdown.
The bar, restaurant and main building are still closed, and the dreamland venue is being used as the reception. The luxuries, view and alcohol selection are not the same as they were at the watering hole. Only beers and ciders are on offer, so I missed my Pre booking gin. The service levels have also been reduced, I did not find any waitors, but I was served by the hostess.
The ladies are a lot more casual than they used to be. My prior visits had ladies dressed up, and made up. At the dream land venue, it was very much dressed down and ladies with no make up, apart from a few, which was quite disappointing. Many were hanging around the pool area with costumes and wet hair in a very casual environment. For some, this may be the vibe they like, but wasn't quite to my taste.
I had an opportunity to visit the new heavens gate venue, but there is one very big problem with it. It had no toilet! And with the main building being locked, it made the booking extremely uncomfortable after a few ciders. In fact, all I could think about was using the toilet.
Heaven on Earth is still one incredible venue, but has just lost its touch of excellence during this lockdown period. I am pretty certain that once all the commotion is over they will once again regain the top spot as my favourite venue.
I would still visit the venue, even with these compromises (maybe not heavens gate), but this time my expectations given the situation will be a little different, so I do not disappoint myself. I really hope in time, my old Heaven on Earth will return.
