Location Play - 13 questions
Places to have sex, rated yes, no, or maybe
Last reviewed: September 2026
Location Play is a focused category - 13 questions about trying intimacy somewhere other than the usual place. The setting changes; the mechanic doesn't. You and your partner each rate every question privately, and a match only appears once you've both said yes to the same one.
What's in the Location Play category
Expect questions about water settings like a shower or bath together, outdoor or adventurous settings, a public-adjacent thrill using something discreet, and hotel or overnight getaways. A smaller number of questions in the fuller website version of this category also touch on group or swinging scenarios, for couples specifically interested in that territory.
Why setting matters as its own category
A lot of couples already know what they enjoy - what changes their interest is where and when. Splitting location out from the activity itself makes it possible to find out, for example, that you're both interested in trying something familiar somewhere new, without that idea getting buried inside a longer list of unrelated preferences.
It's also a category where logistics matter more than usual. A mutual yes on a hotel getaway or an outdoor setting often needs some actual planning - time, privacy, sometimes travel - so matches here tend to turn into something you schedule rather than something spontaneous.
Talking about your matches
Because location matches often need planning, it helps to talk about logistics up front once you know you're both interested: privacy, timing, and what would make either of you feel comfortable rather than rushed. A shared yes on a setting is the easy part - working out when and how is the part worth a real conversation.
If a question touches a more public or adventurous setting, take the maybe option seriously in either direction - it's fine to be curious about an idea in the abstract without being ready to act on it yet.
Where to go next
Location Play pairs well with Romance if the appeal is mostly about a change of pace, and with Intercourse or Positions if you're thinking about pairing a new setting with something else you both already matched on.

Frequently asked questions
What does "location play" mean?
Trying something you already enjoy in a different setting - a shower or bath, an outdoor spot, a hotel getaway, or a public-adjacent thrill using something discreet. It's about the change of setting, not a new act.
Is location play only about risky or public settings?
No. Most of the 13 questions are about settings like a shower, a bath, or a hotel room - genuinely low-risk changes of scenery. Only a couple of items in the full library touch on anything public-adjacent, and even those are framed around discretion.
What about legal or privacy concerns with some settings?
If a question involves a public or semi-public setting, use your own judgment about what's legal and appropriate wherever you are - YesList doesn't vet locations, it only asks whether you'd want to try the idea.
Do we need to plan a trip to answer these questions?
No. Answering yes to a hotel-getaway question doesn't commit you to booking one - it just tells you both there's mutual interest, so you can plan it whenever it makes sense.
