What reviewers say
Reviewers consistently describe Saunabar as clean, well-maintained, and welcoming, with particular praise for staff since a change in management (named as Lucas and Ben) — visitors call out a friendlier, more customer-focused front desk than in the past, along with good facilities (sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, private rest areas) and a relaxed lounge/bar atmosphere. The venue's themed and mixed-gender events, including swingers nights, get specific mentions as a draw for regulars who say they feel safe and comfortable there.
The most common friction point is inconsistency around those themed/swingers nights: at least one reviewer described a swingers night advertised as welcoming and judgment-free that did not live up to that billing in practice, and another cited a specific staff member (a masseur) who came across as disengaged during the visit. A few reviewers also note the general daytime crowd skews older, and that tiled floors in the steam/sauna area can be slippery.

Saunabar sits at 140 Commercial Road in the Triangle, Bournemouth's LGBTQ+ quarter, and bills itself as the busiest gay sauna on the south-west coast. By day it runs as a men's spa: a dry sauna, steam room and jacuzzi, hot showers and private rest areas, plus a cosy lounge with a pool table and a fully licensed bar serving drinks alongside tea and coffee. On-site massage is available by appointment, and a single all-day admission covers the run of the place until closing. The same address takes on a second life after hours. On selected Friday and Saturday evenings Saunabar stays open for themed programming that broadens well beyond the daytime men-only door, and it doubles as the home of Bournemouth Swingers Club, whose couples-and-singles nights and inclusive socials run from the same rooms. Across the two identities the calendar covers trans nights, fetish evenings, naked sessions and all-welcome mixers, so depending on the day the venue reads as a quiet gay sauna or a full LGBTQ+ and swingers events space.
