I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
The Vinoy is also mentioned in a front page NY Times story about the Roger Clements/steroids imbroglio. According to the Times story, former Yankee's trainer Brian McNamee had drunken late night sex in the swimming pool with a woman who may not have been willing. According to the story, both McNamee and the woman were naked. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/15/sp...yt&oref=slogin
