Lisbon Escorts and Sex Guide

Want to know what the sex scene is like Lisbon?

The capital city of Lisbon is home to around half a million of Portugal’s citizens and is a busy hub for the country’s trade and commerce as well as a popular tourist destination. Lisbon has plenty of ways to keep visitors occupied including some landmark buildings, a beautiful old town and many cultural diversions. In addition, you can find pubs, clubs and restaurants in abundance. And, if you are looking to sample the delights of Portugal’s sex scene then you can also find a distinctly adult way to occupy your time.

In this guide we take a look at the adult entertainment scene in Lisbon.



Prostitution in Lisbon

Prostitution in Portugal is legal though third-party profiteering is not; this means that (legal) brothels aren’t available in Lisbon. It is estimated that around 30,000 prostitutes operate in Portugal with at least 5000 of these being in the capital. Many work as escorts or offer other services via legitimate establishments such as massage parlours and strip clubs. Though these venues explicitly state that sexual services aren’t offered, they can be procured on occasion.

Some women work as street prostitutes or offer sex via classified adverts. You can find out more about the street trade in the ‘Street Prostitution’ section, below.

Rates for sex in Lisbon vary depending where you procure services and the kind of women you pick up. Escorts start at around €150 (some charge less, particularly those from the classifieds) whereas street prostitutes can be paid anything from €30 for oral and up to €80 for full service. Premium services are more expensive and you can budget anything from €300 upwards for an hour with an elite model.

Lisbon Escorts Guide

There are a number of escort agencies with a Lisbon presence, however we cannot list them due to industry regulation.

Brothels

Brothels are not legal in Portugal though there are often illegal and temporary brothels set up in rented apartments. Often these are advertised via the free classifieds with single escorts offering incall services; however, when you arrive at the address you will find different girls working to the one you initially contacted.

It is important to remember that these venues are not operating legally and can sometimes be in breach of other laws including the lease of the property. AirBnB guesthouses are hit frequently with this kind of set-up.

Swinging Clubs

Heaven Can Wait

Sintra District, Lisbon

www.heaven.pt

A private members club, Heaven Can Wait is a couples and singles swinging club that offers a programme of entertainment that includes burlesque shows and strip performances.

The live shows and DJ give the venue more of a nightclub feel than a swinging club. Facilities are split over several floors to offer a huge variety of spaces to explore.

Heaven Can Wait has a big party atmosphere and caters for private events. Image via website.

The club has a large lounge and several play areas as well as jacuzzi, Turkish bath, sauna, bar and massage services. On the first floor you can find the clubs many gloryholes and the dance floor.

The club is open as follows:

  • Naughty Wednesdays: 11.00pm to 4.00am
  • Erotic Fridays: 11.00pm to 5.00am
  • Sensual Saturdays: 11.00pm to 6.00am

If you want to attend one of the parties, you should contact the club via the website; there is a separate number for singles and couples.

X Clube

www.xclube.com

Another exclusive swinging club, you will need to contact the organisers in order to gain entry to any events. However, it is unclear from their website whether they are currently hosting events.

Founded in 2006, the club had a revamp in 2013 to incorporate a larger lounge space and more advanced disco/nightclub area.

There are some great modern facilities here and the club has an upmarket appeal which you may find different to some private swinging clubs experienced in other areas of Europe; expect the place to feel more like a Gentleman’s club than a private house.

The club is open for couples and singles but check with the management on the schedule of their opening.

Erotic Massage Parlour

Massage in Lisbon is easy to get and though the services of the masseur exclude any sexual offerings most of the treatments available include generous amounts of time on the genitals to guarantee happy endings. We are aware that some masseurs offer additional services once the doors are closed but this is hit and miss and is not approved of by the individual establishments. So, whilst you can get full service with a massage, there are no guarantees.

Where a parlour provides lingam (or phallus) massage you can expect a sensual rub and tug.

Many of these parlours have a web presence, but we cannot list them due to third-party advertising rules.

Strip Clubs

Passerelle

Av. Óscar Monteiroo Torres, 8-B, 1000-219 Campo Pequeno, Lisbon

www.passerelle.pt

Passarelle has been providing striptease entertainment in Portugal’s capital for 20 years and brings their experience to bear with a superb schedule of dancers.

Rua Bernardo Lima 18, 1150-218 Lisbon

http://divashowbar.pt/

The Diva Show bar is an intimate (read ‘small’) strip venue a short walk from the city’s Hospital Miguel Bombarda.

You can get champagne here as well as wines, beers and spirits but it is the strip shows that you’ll stay for. As an up-close venue you get quite personal with the dancers and for the most part you won’t be disappointed with this.

The place has a regular local following but you can find the occasional tourists here too.

The club is open daily from 10.00pm to 4.00am.

San Payo Club

Rue. Rodrigues Sampaio 34, 1150-089 Lisbon

www.facebook.com/lisbongentlemansclubsanpayo

Photus Strip Club

Av. de António José de Almeida 5 L-101, 1049-001 Lisbon

The club is a mix of industrial chic with burlesque glamour and it’s a popular club with locals and visitors alike. Prices are on the high side but the quality of the dancers should make up for the difference in your wallet.

Maison Rouge Strip

Rue de Borges Carneiro 38A, 1200-661 Lisbon

www.facebook.com/maisonrougelisbon

The Maison Rouge Strip club, rather unsurprisingly, has a burlesque theme to it which generates a good deal of interest from the tourist trade rather than locals.

They do good business with bachelor parties and entertain with a combination of pastiche strip tease and dance.

The club is relatively new to the capital but initial reviews are good.

The Maison Rouge is open Monday to Saturday from 10.00pm to 4.00am.

Impossivel Gentleman’s Club

Beco Esconso 11, 2750-642 Cascais

www.facebook.com/ImpossivelClub

Situated about 30 minutes to the west of Lisbon you can find the Impossivel Gentleman’s club. Though a schlep out of the city, the coastal town of Cascais is a pleasant alternative to the city and should give you a different experience of this area of Portugal.

Originally opening in the 90s the club could do with a facelift but it has a good vibe. Image via website.

The club has been open for over 25 years and has plenty of dancers and hostesses providing night long entertainment. It’s not the most modern of venues but it has got a really friendly and laidback feel.

Rolls Strip Club

Tv. Afonso Sanches 6, 2750-283 Cascais

www.rollsclub.com

Street Prostitutes

Street prostitution in Lisbon isn’t common but you can find most hookers in the city working around the Praca de Figueira landmark. On a weekend there are dozens of women on the make here and they aren’t hard to spot. The selection isn’t great, but customers can get a pick up for around €50, some even have apartments in the city but room charges apply.
