Nudist Resort selected by LA TImes BEST of Southern California

The LA Times newspaper came out today and they selected the best in 120 different categories of where to go, what to eat, what to do, etc. in Southern California.

The Best hotel that was selected was a Ritz Carlton.

However, the complete surprise was the BEST, most popular resort that was selected. It was a nudist resort. Yes, that's right, us, the Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa was picked as the BEST resort in ALL Southern California, textile or nudist.

Now of course we were not selected as the best because of being snobby and trendy, super expensive and overpriced like so many other places. No, LA Times wanted to know what were the most popular, fun places, to shop at, eat at, and vacation at. And there's where Terra Cotta Inn excels.

Our guests have so much fun here. We have one of the highest repeat guest rates in the travel industry at just over 80%. We are one of the best values of ALL hotels and resorts in Southern California.

This is what the LA Times wrote in awarding us this great honor:
"Widely regarded as the most mainstream nude sunbathing resort in the U.S., the historic Terra Cotta Inn is a popular clothing-optional resort and spa located in the world-famous desert playground of Palm Springs. Especially suitable for couples looking to sunbathe topless or even nude for the first time, this is the perfect place to say goodbye to tan lines forever."

Our winning the award just goes to show how mainstream Terra Cotta Inn has become. As one nudist resort owner told us a couple of years ago, we have probably created more first time nudists than any other of the nudist resorts in the US.

So thank you Los Angeles Times Newspaper and thank you to all of our guests for making The Terra Cotta Inn such a fun, enjoyable, popular nudist resort. We love all of our guests. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be such a special place.

Hope to see everyone real soon in sunny Palm Springs!

Who are adult nudists? Why they're everyone!

It is the job of comedians to make fun of groups, races, politicians or themselves. As the late George Carlin said, "I think it's the duty of every comedian to find out where the line is drawn and to cross it deliberately."

Some jokes you know who created them like George Carlin's, "Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough not to quit."

Other jokes like "I don't approve of political jokes. I've seen too many get elected," have been told by so many comedians in making fun of politicians, no one knows who said it first.

Well another inaccurate joke that has been around for a long, long time is "Why is it that most nudists are people you don't want to see naked." Even George Carlin used it.

Now all nudists know this is just a bad joke making fun of us and is so untrue. Sadly though, non nudists actually believe it and sadly so do many in the media.

A Denver website wrote a couple of days ago: http://blogs.westword.com/showandtell/2011/07/nude_day_bastille_day.php "It's one of life's most bitter ironies that, as a general rule, the people most likely to be nudists are the people you least want to see nude -- and so it was with a collective sigh of relief from the pants-wearing world that Nude Recreation Week wrapped up yesterday..." Not to flattering of nudists or the world of nude recreation.

However, the reality, as all nudists know, is completely different. Nudist adults are all ages from their 20's to their 80's. They come from all ethnic backgrounds. They are all sizes from tall to short to average height. They are thin, to average to plus sized weights. They are Democrats, Republican, Libertarians, and non voters. They are pretty, average, and plain in looks. Nudists are all professions and all religions oe no religion. They are more highly educated than average Americans though. Thus, they are you and me.

As a perfect example, above is a photo of Patty, the manager at The Terra Cotta Inn. She is in her 20's and is Latina. Proving nudists are all ages and proving the writer did not do his research.

Also nudists will tell you it is not the outer beauty of people that matters. It is the inner beauty.

Any one who is a nice, happy, friendly person easily could be a nudist.

Sadly what happens when the media thinks they are being funny by making fun of nudists is they are actually driving people away from trying nude recreation.

A nude vacation is one of the best, most fun vacations you can ever have. But with the American media portraying nudists as aging hippies, they do a great disservice to all Americans and first timers by not reporting the news accurately.

So if you are in the media and are writing a story about nudism, The American Association for Nude Recreation is a great source of information, Their site is http://aanr.com And their number is 800-TRY-NUDE.

OF course you can also contact me too as I am the PR Chairperson for AANR. My name is Tom Mulhall at 800-786-6938.

So don't let the media scare you away from trying a nuder vacation, it will be the best one you have ever had!

We are predicted to have Fantastic Sunny Weather in Palm Springs, California at The Terra Cotta Inn this weekend of July 8th and 9th.

You are more than welcome to book both nights or more, or just book for Saturday night July 9th.

Nude Recreation Week informs first timers all about the fun they are missing out on by not vacationing at topless or nude resorts and beaches. Especially at The Terra Cotta Inn.

Nude sunbathing, swimming, and skinny dipping has had a long history in America. Presidents John Quincy Adams and Teddy Roosevelt used to go nude swimming in the Potomac river. And Benjamin Franklin greatly enjoyed his daily outdoor "air baths" while wearing just his birthday suit.

Nude Recreation Week lets everyone know that by vacationing at nudist and clothing optional resorts, you can finally find a fun way to shed all of life's daily stresses along with your clothes.

We will have a fun FREE Margarita Madness and Baja Buffet this weekend each day in the afternoon.

So we are going to continue the fun Saturday evening. FREE Hot dogs, hamburgers, and all the side dishes.
