Girlfriend getaways and nudist resorts


I have mentioned this before, I don't know why nudist resorts and organizations don't market themselves as perfect vacation destinations for girlfriend getaways? Girlfriends getaways are a major niche in the travel industry.

It is said there are not enough single women who go to nudist resorts. Marketing for girlfriend getaways is the perfect way to introduce more women to the nude recreation.

Of course a few things will have to change. One is you will have to allow women to go topless. About every 2-3 weeks we have two women who stay here. If they are not repeats, they always go topless sunbathing first. Most of the time after a day they feel comfortable going nude sunbathing, but not always.

Next, you have to have areas and/or resorts without kids. We have found disproportionately, the women coming here for girlfriend getaways, at lest one is a school teacher and they do NOT want to hang out at nudist resorts where there are kids. Since we don't cater to families, we are a perfect destination.

For instance, Palm Springs Life Magazine had a cover advertisement about girlfriend getaways. Here is the ad from an upscale resort here in Palm Springs:


"Travel - Get Away, Girlfriend!

Experience the luxurious life... perfect for the well-deserved girlfriend getaway. This is the time of year to take advantage of the finest shopping, pampering, and dining. Think massages and pomegranate martinis.

Start with a manicure and pedicure, followed by a deep-tissue massage, a detoxifying body wrap, and an invigorating facial or herbal scrub. Whether your visit is a girlfriend getaway or a special occasion, you’re in good hands here...

Refuel with a low-carb, high-protein shake at Body Factory in Palm Springs. Its shelves are lined with everything it takes to stay healthy. The Body Deli in Palm Desert offers fresh, organic body and face care items, including all-natural plant oils.

For some extreme shopping, take to the shops of The Gardens on El Paseo, a two-level open-air shopping center featuring jewelers, boutiques, and restaurants. The River at Rancho Mirage also offers fine retail therapy.

Rent a convertible and cruise downtown Palm Springs and El Paseo in Palm Desert or ride up the mountainside of Highway 74, enjoying the palms-to-pines scenic drive. Be sure to stop at Vista Point and take in the view of the desert floor.

Enjoy a light lunch or early dinner alfresco, catch a sunset for happy hour, or people watch at a sidewalk restaurant. Try a Pom Tini at The Falls in downtown Palm Springs and La Quinta, or Tropicale’s signature Hurricane cocktail in Palm Springs — white and dark rum infused with orange, lime and cherry juice, and a splash of 151 rum.

And be sure to visit Cold Stone Creamery or CafĂ© Chocolate for your sweet tooth. Go home a new, refreshed you — with a little chocolate fix!"

Everything they mentioned for a girlfriend getaway, our resort The Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa could deliver. Why we even do our massages outdoors just like the resort in the ad advertises. We are the only nudist resort in Palm Springs that does outdoor massages in the fresh air.

Whenever we vacation in Las Vegas, we see lots of groups of 2-8 women there. I think girlfriend getaways is a perfect market for nudist resorts.
