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. We were picked not because we're exclusive and snobby, (we let other places win those categories). We were picked because we are so friendly and because the guests have such a good time here.

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

Beware of Hotel "Deals"

The Los Angeles Times just printed a hotel "deal" for a textile hotel in Palm Springs. Book now and get 40% off! Rates only $161/night, regularly $269. At that hotel, I don't think anyone has EVER paid $269/night. The true rate right now is the $161. This is not a deal.

When I was president of the Palm Springs Chamber of Commerce, I toured that hotel. Their rooms are nice like our rooms at The Terra Cotta Inn. And at $161 that should be the regular rate.

They make up a phony rack rate of $269 so they can offer phony discounts. This particular hotel also has a resort fee of $25 plus if you want to stay late for instance to 5 pm like our guests can, they charge and additional $75.

So let's compare someone checking coming in January on a Mon and Tues night. They want to check in early, but can't. They have to wait until 4pm. They pay $161/night. They have $25/night resort fees. They pay $30-35 for breakfast. They don't get free afternoon snacks like we serve. Then if they stay until 5pm they pay an extra $75 for a total phony discount of $367 or $183.50/night. And the Los Angeles Times is fooled and thinks this is a bargain?

In January, our resort The Terra Cotta inn clothing optional resort and spa has a real discount on Monday thru Thursday nights of stay 1 night, the 2nd is half priced. Breakfast is complimentary as is afternoon snacks. No resort fees, You can check in as early as 10am and stay until 5 pm at no extra charge. Our guests would pay $223.50 and get to stay longer and have better amenities. Sadly though, the Los Angeles times does not print our real bargain.

Last week Chris Elliott, the MSNBC and National Geopgraphic Traveler magazine travel reporter was on TV and pointed out that nudist resorts are a bargain. Our resort was one of three nudist resorts in the US that he mentioned that were particularly good bargains.

Many nudists fall for these phony deals. In my next blog posts I will discuss this.

Now is the time to try something different and fun. Think clothing optional. Think Terra Cotta Inn, Palm Springs, California. Give us a call at 800-786-6938.

We are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time.

Phony Discounts are the rage in the hotel industry

Our local newspaper, The Desert Sun recently carried an article about hotel discounts that local resorts and hotels are offering. We have always wanted to get the extra free publicity by listing discounts, but we have found that it is difficult because we are considered one of the best value resorts in all Palm Springs and have never overcharged our guests. Thus, we can't discount back to normal rates.

For instance, the Desert Sun article about one resort wrote about how that resort felt so bad for their customers in these trying economic times that they were discounting their massages by 30%. They got about 5 column inches in the Desert Sun. However, their regular rate for a 50 minute Swedish massage was back breaking $125. Even with their so called sale of 30% off, it brings their massage rates to $84/50 minutes. We have always offered a full hour massage to our guests for just $80/hour.
And according to examiner.com we are one of the top ranked spas in Palm Springs for massage. So basically they gave free pr because they used to price gouge and now have reasonable rates.

We can't discount our rates because they have always been extremely fair. That is why we have one of the highest occupancy rates of all hotels in Palm Springs.

One hotel listed their rates at $549/night to a "discount" of $199/night. The funny thing is I bet year round that place sells their rooms for $199/night or less. I bet no one has ever paid $549, yet they try to pretend they are a great bargain as they are over 50% off rack rates.

So be aware of phony discounts and sales and scams in the hotel industry this year as everyone is looking for bargains and deals.

Our resort, The Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa has always been the best value nudist resort not just in Palm Springs, but the whole US, and we intend to stay that way.

So if you have always wanted to try topless or nude sunbathing, we are the perfect resort. We are considered the most mainstream clothing optional resort in the US and are perfect for couples trying nude sunbathing for the first time.

Give us a call at 800-786-6938.
