The Terra Cotta Inn is the BEST nudist resort in America for first timers



Nudists all know we are the BEST nudist resort in the United States for first timers. Even our local newspaper, the Desert Sun reported we are the most mainstream nudist resort in American and perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time. But, not all first timers know this.

I just read a review of our resort from a couple that has been to many nudist resorts. This is what he wrote:

"...The wife, my wife, not just any wife, did have a blast playing tug-a-war with Jude. She, Jude, really is a cute puppy.

One observation that I made while at Terra Cotta Inn, ... was that there does appear to have been a slight shift in the demographic. It seemed like there were more young adults around the pool than I remember seeing in prior visits...I prefer to think that the whole Nakation idea is catching on. We can only hope.

A couple of more notes about Terra Cotta Inn. This especially goes out to first timers... If you're thinking of that nude beach in Hawaii, Jamaica, Florida, etc, as a place to introduce your reluctant, nervous, unsure, wife to nude sunbathing, social nudism, or any other variation of the theme that doesn't involve being ogled, leered at, or surreptitiously photographed... STOP THINKING NOW! You're obviously not very good at it. If at all possible, Terra Cotta Inn is the sort of place you need to take her too if you expect to have a rat's chance in the crazy cat lady's house of ever having her say let's go back. Unless, of course, she's into being ogled, leered at, surreptitiously photographed, etc. Once off the beach, some clubs, while not open to the public spectacle that ruins many nude beaches and first experiences, are pretty serious about concepts such as nude, clothes free, nudist, etc. If she's at all spooked by the idea of being nude amongst strangers, a clothing optional resort like Terra Cotta Inn is the perfect choice for a first visit..."

Well we thank him for his honest opinions. Still, every week we get calls and e-mails from people who took their wife or girlfriend to a nude beach or another nudist resort for her first experience and she hated it. And he now wants to know how to convince her to try our place. Rarely will she try it as in her mind all nude places are the same which is not true. Go as our guest wrote, if you go to a wrong place, good luck getting her to try it again.

This is one of the many reasons why first timers from around the world fly to our resort. For instance, we have an original first timer couple here from England right now. They came here for their first nudist experience as he wanted his nervous wife to have her best nude vacation ever, and this is now their 15th time here.

Your wife or girlfriend will love our resort too. So first timers, try our resort and watch her want to become a repeat guest.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, sunny, unique vacation experience. One that you will want to repeat over and over.

Never been to a clothing optional resort before? No problem. We are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and are perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time as reported by the Desert Sun newspaper in Palm Springs!

Last November, MSNBC picked us as the Best value nude sunbathing resort in the western US.

And 1 month ago, the Los Angeles Times newspaper picked us as the most popular of ALL small resorts in Southern California. Pretty cool that our nudist resort is more popular than all the boring textile hotels. And the picked the city of Palm Springs as the runner up best travel destination of ALL Southern California.

Give us a call at 800-786-6938 to make reservations or for more information. We answer the phones from 8am-10pm PST.

Vacation is over for us, back to work




We were in Europe the last 2 weeks on vacation. One of the nice things about owning a nice nudist resort like ours is we spend lots of money on our guests, so we get lots of miles on our credit cards to use on vacation. Lots of our guests use their miles to vacation with us too.

Above are 2 photos from the harbor in Copenhagen. One is the famous Little Mermaid. The other one is a more modern mermaid right in front of a small strip shopping center by the harbor entrance about 200 yards from the Little Mermaid.

The Little Mermaid is the most popular tourist attraction in all of Denmark. Notice she is topless as is the modern mermaid. Millions of children see these topless mermaids every year. Yes, kids see these topless statues and the country of Denmark is proud of them. No busy bodies whine saying the statues need bikini tops because of the children.

At the World's Fair in China last year, Denmark actually transported the Little Mermaid for everyone to see. This is how a country should be. Proud of it's heritage and accepting of the human body, even if it is only the top half on a mermaid.

Contrast this to one of the biggest boobs in American history, John Ashcroft our old attorney general. You can see him talking in front of the "Spirit of Justice," (naked justice for all). Ashcroft was so afraid that when people saw him talking in front of that statue, they would say, "there are now 3 boobs in the room," Ashcroft actually ordered the statue draped, even though Lady Justice has been a symbol of Justice going back to Roman times and some even say Egyptian times. Of course for an extremist like Ashcroft, justice meant nothing unless you were a billionaire.

These statues are the perfect answer to people when they say we can't have nudism, "because of the children." The answer is so what. The kids will be fine and the Little mermaid proves it. Millions of children see her topless in Europe.

I will be posting more photos and observations from our vacation.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, sunny, unique vacation experience. One that you will want to repeat over and over.

Palm Springs and Terra Cotta inn are winners with the Los Angeles Times 2011 Readers Choice Awards



Palm Springs, California is the nudist mecca of the US. Averaging under 3 inches of rain a year, it is the sunniest city in America. Textiles and nudists all LOVE vacationing in Palm Springs.

From Conde Nast Traveler Magazine, to Vanity Fair Magazine, to Lonely Planet Travel Guide books picking Palm Springs last year as one of the top 10 destinations you must vacation at (and Lonely Planet is the largest Travel guide book company in the world), the media is all saying for a great, fun vacation "go vacation in Palm Springs, California."

And one of the reasons Lonely Planet picked Palm Springs as one of the 10 best travel destinations is because you can go nude sunbathing at Terra Cotta Inn.

Well on July 24th, the Los Angeles Times 2011 Readers Choice Awards were announced. Guess what city was the "Best SoCal Getaway Runner Up?" Palm Springs, California! San Diego was picked as the best getaway and Palm Springs was Runner up. Way to go Palm Springs!!!

And of course guess which resort was picked as the BEST, MOST POPULAR resort in All Southern California, textile or nudist? Terra Cotta Inn nude sunbathing resort.

It is so cool that nice nudist resorts are finally able to compete with textile hotels. Click here to see the results

Now of course we were picked as the best not because we are exclusive and snobby. No, snobs are referred elsewhere. One of the many reasons we are the best is because we are friendly and so much fun. We are also a fantastic value as reported by both trip advisor and MSNBC.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, sunny, unique vacation experience. One that you will want to repeat over and over.

Never been to a clothing optional resort before? No problem. We are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and are perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time!

Last November, MSNBC picked us as the Best value nude sunbathing resort in the western US.

And in December, 2010 Palm Springs Life Magazine picked us as the BEST small resort in the whole Palm Springs area in their Best of the Best issue. It's pretty cool that a nudist resort is considered the best place to stay in town.

Bloggers, journalists, and the media feel free using this post to write nice nudist stories.

Terra Cotta Inn is always upgrading our resort



Nudists all know we are the nude recreation leaders of Palm Springs. That is why other nudist resorts even pay for google adwords to appear on google whenever someone types in the keywords words "Terra Cotta Inn".

Yes, even though the lodging industry greatly frowns on hotels advertising on other hotel names especially with adwords, for instance you will never see a Hilton place ads on Marriott's name on the internet, we understand that some places don't have our repeat guest rate percentages (Terra Cotta's is 80% repeats, one of the highest in the travel industry). We assume these places need short term business really bad in these hard economic times and are hoping to get some of our overflow.

Although other places have been advertising on our name for years, and guests of ours constantly comment that they would never stay at those places, even when we're full as they don't like how those places are taking advantage of all our hard work, we have never complained as those places admit by their advertising, that Terra Cotta is the nudist resort leader in Palm Springs which is why they only advertise on our name in Palm Springs.

Terra Cotta Inn has been open almost 17 years and we have always been the go to nude sunbathing resort of Palm Springs.

We opened the doors for mainstream advertising and public relations with the Palm Springs's tourism department, Conde Nast Traveler Magazine, and much more. We were the FIRST of all nudist resorts that let everyone else know it was FUN to vacation in the nude.

We were the 1st of ALL hotels in Palm Springs to convert our pool and Jacuzzi to state of the art salt water systems so we don't have to use all the harsh chemicals.

We were the first of ALL hotels in Palm Springs to install room side heaters for guests to stay nice and warm and nude in the winter.

We were the first of ALL Palm Springs hotels to install high pressure cooling systems poolside and constantly upgrade it and even now most places don't have them as they are very expensive to operate. But, then our guests comfort is more important.

We were the first of ALL hotels to propose to the city of Palm Springs that they start a recycling program for resorts in town. And they accepted that idea.

We were the first nudist resort in the US to have top of the line king sized beds.

We have always been the best value of ALL nudist resorts and one of the best values of all hotels in Palm Springs. We've been recognized by both trip advisor and MSNBC for being such a great value.

We were one of the first of ALL hotels in Palm Springs to offer free WIFI and we were the resort that convinced the city of Palm Springs to make Time Warner Roadrunner to charge hotels only a flat monthly wifi fee instead of trying to extract a daily fee from users. Thus we have never passed on our wifi costs to guests and all hotels in Palm Springs benefit now because of our hard work.

We are constantly upgrading our resort and hotel which is why we have one of the highest occupancy rates of ALL hotels in Palm Springs. Here are a few photos of our rooms as we have upgraded them. We have new tile on the floors (commercial safety non slip tile as we care about our guests). Patty is even showing you just how comfortable our new rooms are. Remember you will be sleeping at least 1/3 of your stay here, so comfortable beds are extremely important.

Guests ALWAYS tell us that they sleep better here than at any other hotel anywhere else that they have been to.

Right now, we have installed new tile floors in about 30% of our rooms as we have have just 1 person working at a time here as we don't like workmen disturbing our guests relaxation. Again, we always care about our guests. Hopefully by early next year all of the rooms will have new tile floors.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, sunny, unique vacation experience. One that you will want to repeat over and over.

Terra Cotta Inn, Palm Springs, California Rocks



Nudists all know that we are the nude vacation destination of choice out west. We have couples from all over the US, Canada, England, Australia, Mexico and lots of other countries stay here. Which is why Terra Cotta Inn is Unique. Year round we are popular 7 days a week instead of just weekends like typical nudist resorts.

And of course first timers love our place as we're the most mainstream nude sunbathing resort in the US and as our local newspaper the Desert Sun says, we're perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time.

We have one of the highest repeat guest rates in the travel industry at over 80%. Lodging Magazine says if a vacation resort gets a 15% repeat guest rate, they are doing really well. Sandals Resorts brags that they have almost a 35% repeat guest rate. So to be an 80% repeat rate, it is really cool.

And what is so nice about Terra Cotta Inn is because we are a vacation resort instead of just another weekend getaway like everyone else, we have different people here all the time. So it doesn't get cliquish here like it would at places that cater mainly to locals.

Of course local Southern Californians also LOVE Terra Cotta Inn which is one of the many reasons why we were just picked by the Los Angeles Times newspaper in their July Reader's Choice awards for 2011 as the MOST POPULAR of ALL small resorts of ALL Southern California. Many places say they are popular ever though they are pretty empty midweek. The Los Angeles Times knows better, which is why they were very proud to pick us. We actually got a letter from the President of the Los Angeles Times congratulating us on our major achievement.

And of course one of the many reasons we were selected is because we are such a fun place and because it is such a friendly atmosphere here. Snobs don't fit in. We recommend other places for them to go.

A tradition guests started maybe 15 years ago is painting rocks and then coming back and visiting them. Where are a few examples. Aren't they great.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, sunny, unique vacation experience. One that you will want to repeat over and over.
