Sauna Joe is a men's sauna in Kerkrade, right on the border where the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium meet. It describes itself as an adult wellness facility with 400 square metres of thermal and leisure space, open since 2008, and it greets visitors in Dutch, German and French.
There is a newly built Finnish dry sauna, a steam room, a large whirlpool, open showers and a lounge with a fireplace and a TV. The bar is on the ground floor and roomy. Out back is a covered terrace with loungers, palm thatch and coloured lights, which is also where smokers go. For play there is an adult video room and a play area with cruising space and private cabins that cost nothing extra.
Most days are for men only. On some evenings women are welcome as well, one day a week is open to all genders, and the calendar carries themed days for bears and for twinks. The house rule is short: everybody is welcome as long as they respect each other. On some weekends the bar puts on a buffet.
