Sanctuary Studios

Mixed feelings on this one. I feel like as a whole this is an odd business so a little weirdness is to be expected but I guess it’s more closely akin to a community.
I went to their anniversary party (20/​person) so I was expecting quite a show.
The mix of people is quite broad — 20s to 60s and all shapes and sizes. The place is actually smaller than I expected with a main lobby area maybe for 20 – 30 people and 5 – 6 private rooms. Each room is designed for various scenarios. I think it’s a bring your own toys type deal as people often had suitcases with them full of whips and various instrumentation of pain and pleasure.
The shows were interesting but the voyeuristic potential was still the best part. The little shows in the side rooms were far more interesting for me. It’s like mini sessions to watch and learn. I will most likely return if they hold another event.

Mistress Cyan reached out to me. We spoke and I appreciate her taking the time to speak with me about the frustrations. Hopefully changes will be made to make it better for future clients. I’m adjusting my review to 5 stars for her caring enough to respond. Thank you.

I am a huge fan in many ways of this spot. The people are great — intelligent, sexy, witty, fun, open-​minded, etc., it is a private club — so, for your eyes only, and it is always a feast for your eyes — or, you can participate in some of the festivities. ALL kinds of shows, parties, and awesome classes. I have nothing negative to say here, but is a must if you are sexually adventurous, fun, and open-​minded.
NOT FOR UPTIGHT SNOOTS… for voyeurs, players, BDSM — light to hard, and people that truly like to have a good time minus all the bs, they just get to the point which is refreshing for LA… people here are real, not your typical LA/​Hollywood/​Playboy/​Look at me scene… FAR more intriguing!!! Every single time I have gone here, I have learned something new… and that would be too many times too count! And… IF you knew me personally, you would know I am quite the kinkster, but at this dark oasis, there is ALWAYS something to learn and discover!

I came here to do a photo shoot with two of the girls at Sanctuary LAX and was impressed by the rooms and props. Everything was clean and the staff was all polite and professional. The girls I worked with (Pixi and Niki) were fantastic, friendly and a lot of fun. I hope to shoot here again and would recommend it if you want to pay to play.
–1 star because under studio lights you can see that a lot of the props are a lot lower quality than you think they are with dim dungeon lighting. Examples: the bed sheet looked blac, but was actually dark green from too much washing, and had small holes in it, the painting on the walls had scuffs, and the artwork in the theme rooms was low quality frames and prints. Lastly, they have an option for a weary traveler to spend the night here, but I only saw one bed in the fancy bedroom theme room. That bed had the most crappy matress I’ve ever sat on. I’m not sure if they have somewhere else guests stay overnight, but I hope it’s not this bed.

Ohh boy! I come here quite often for different events. Especially for BDSM /​Fetish Events. Everyone is very friendly. I enjoy myself every time I am here. It can get a bit chilly sometimes but hey with that many people at big events its better to be chilly then sweating, lol … I love all the different styled rooms here and the equipment that’s available to use is awesome. The bathrooms are always kept well clean and they have a nice large seating area as well. I always recommend my friends to come and check it out especially on kink nights :)

This place has a lot of rooms to play and fun events going on almost every weekend. This is certainly a place to check out to have a good time and meet some cool folks in the BDSM community.

GREAT PLACE!
i love this place, i came back before the renovation and liked it, good place to have a drink and do something out of the ordinary, very legit and the people here are good for an intelectual conversation… def coming back to check out the new vibes it has to offer :0

The website has been updated with more information. They are having a club night on Saturdays it seems. Hopefully they will continue to update and work to make the website great.

I did a photo shoot (as photographer) here with two of their girls, as well as attending their opening night party. The place is pretty fantastic: lots of rooms with different themes, impressive array of BDSM equipment and furniture, and a big warehouse/​stage space for parties and events. The staff is friendly and very talented. The party was a lot of fun too, lots of stage shows, public play, and interesting people to meet. They just opened up and are still adding some features, but all in all the place is shaping up to be everything that PAS used to be: an extensive and impressive location for private and public BDSM entertainment.

I freakin’ love this place. The girls are working there now and there are parties on every Saturday just like before. Old faces and new faces alike abound and the new equipment and rooms are REALLY nice. Clean and classy, it’s worth a kinky visit.
