Customers tell all: Our best sex memories from vacation

"We hadn't touched each other for three months"

Anna, 34 - Crete

We had had a tough spring. Work, the kids, everything that piles up without you really noticing until you're sitting on a plane and realize you haven't even held hands in several months.

We landed in Heraklion at midnight. We rented a small car, drove to the hotel with the windows open and warm air streaming in, and checked into a room that smelled of sunscreen and wood.

I had packed one of our old favorites that we hadn't used in a long time. I placed it on the nightstand without saying anything.

He saw it when he came out of the bathroom. Looked at me. Laughed a little.

That night was the best we'd had in years. Not because everything was perfect or particularly planned, but because we finally had time to just be us again.

We bought a new one when we got home. The old one deserved to retire.

"The cabin had paper-thin walls"

Erika and Maja, 28 and 31 - Dalarna

We had rented a cabin together with Erika's brother and his girlfriend. A fantastic idea on paper. Less fantastic when we realized the walls had been built in 1962 and insulated with what seemed to be expectations and good intentions.

We were careful the first night. The second night too.

On the third night, I found a toy in Maja's bag that I didn't know she had brought with her. It was quiet. Very quiet. That's still its best feature.

We lay under the covers like teenagers and tried not to laugh. We only half succeeded.

Erika's brother said nothing at breakfast. But he smiled a little more than usual.

Since then, we've had an unspoken rule: silent mode isn't optional on shared vacations. It's a requirement.

"I was alone for the first time in ten years"

Linn, 41 - Portugal

My husband and I separated in January. In June, I booked a week in Lisbon - alone, something I had never done as an adult.

I was nervous about the trip in a way I didn't quite understand. It turned out to be one of the best weeks of my life.

I ate when I wanted. Went wherever I wanted. Slept in the middle of the bed.

And one evening, after a glass of vinho verde at a small restaurant overlooking the Tagus, I went back to the hotel and decided to order something from Mshop that I would never have bought when I was married. Not because it was forbidden, but because I always prioritized us, not myself.

It was a small thing. But it felt like a promise to myself.

I still have it. It reminds me of that evening every time I see it.

"We missed our dinner reservation"

Elio, 37 - Barcelona

We had planned the entire evening. We had booked a table at a restaurant three streets from the hotel, recommended by everyone we know who has been to Barcelona.

We were supposed to go there at eight.

My partner had bought something new for the trip - an app-controlled cock ring that I didn't know about until we checked in and she handed me the phone with a smile I recognized.

We were just going to test it "quickly" before we left.

At ten o'clock, we ordered room service.

The restaurant earned a Michelin star the following month. I regret nothing.
