Cyber Monday Discount Sales Event at Terra Cotta Inn, Palm Springs, California

Everyone is looking for good value for their vacation dollar. Sales and discounts on vacations are even nicer. And nudists aren't any different. That's one of the reasons we have not raised our rates for 4 years and will not be raising them again in 2011 as we are known as the best value nudist resort in America. And we do not charge any hidden resort or day fees.

On a MSNBC TV show in November 2009, we were also named as the best value nudist resort on the west coast.

Even though we are the best value of ALL nudist resorts in the US and one of the best values of ALL resorts in Palm Springs, guests still want more discounts.

In the months of December and January, (excluding the December 24th to January 2nd holiday period), we will have our best deal of the year, stay 1 night, the 2nd is 50% OFF on Monday through Thursday nights.

December is also a special month for us. 16 years ago on December 19th, 1994 we opened and are now the most popular clothing optional resort in the western US.

December and January are a great times to stay with us. We have invested in poolside out door heaters, to keep you nice and warm and nude in the night time. So you can nude sunbathe all day long and sit under the heaters at night. We are the ONLY nudist resort in the whole US to have invested in them.

We also keep our state of the art salt water pool a nice and toasty 86F. And of course our salt water pool and jacuzzi are open 24 hours a day.

If you are a shopper and looking for great bargains, Desert Hills discount outlet mall is only 20 minutes away from The Terra Cotta Inn. It is the largest and best discount outlet mall in the western US.

Finally, we are proud to report in the December 2010 issue of Palm Springs Life Magazine, the Best of the Best issue we were selected as the BEST boutique hotels in the WHOLE Palm Springs. This is a great honor being named the Best of the Best as we are compared to ALL hotels not just nudist hotels.

We were named the best not because we are super fancy, snobby, and elite like some places. No we were named the best because we are so popular, our guests are so friendly and they have so much fun here.

I have always said that nudist hotels have to be able to compete head to head on amenities and services with textile hotels for nudism to grow. We have one of the highest occupancy rates of ALL hotels in Palm Springs, so this award proves that nudists want nice accommodations too.

We are still asked all the time by first timers, "we're not nudists, this is our first time. Will we be welcome?" No problem. Probably 95% of our repeat guests were first timers too.

Now it's time that you should try something new, something fun, something romantic, and different. We are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and are perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time!

Give us a call at 800-786-6938 for more information or to make reservations.

Hotel sites being sued - Accused of spreading false information

The internet has been fantastic for the travel industry, and especially for finding nudist resorts. It is our biggest source for new guests.

There is lots of information on the net about where to go for vacations, things to do, etc.

One of the negatives about the internet though is there is lots of misleading information. Many travel sites quote low rates and then you find out there are hidden resort fees or membership fees.

Or worse some places have phony "rack rates" so they can have even phonier sales and discounts.

Even in the nude recreation field, some nudist resorts quote lower rates and once you get there, you learn you have to pay daily membership fees, or ground fees, or whatever other creative name they have for charging guests extra money.

Here at Terra Cotta Inn we have NO hidden resort, grounds, parking or membership fees. You pay what you are quoted.

Now I know the hotel industry pretty well here in Palm Springs. There are some hotels that advertise with Expedia, Hotels.com etc that they are having 50% off "sales" from their phony "rack rates."

The funny thing is they ALWAYS have these 50% off sales. And the sad thing is some people fall for the phony sales thinking they are getting a bargain or good value. Which they're not.

We've had people come here for day use at our resort. They're from out of state, have been to nudist resorts before, (not ours), but booked at a non nude hotel here in town thinking they they were getting a deal from one of these hotel room "sales."

It gets pretty frustrating when a nudist books a textile hotel that has a 50% off sale because they think it's cheaper than staying at our resort. As an example one place in town offers 50% off sales at $119 midweek. However once you factor in parking fees, resort fees, buying breakfast and having to pay us $25 for a day fee to use our nudist resort. That bargain $119 becomes about $205. And midweek our rates are only $149. Plus you'll get free afternoon snacks here too.

MSNBC in the fall said many nudist resorts are a great value and mentioned The Terra Cotta Inn as one of the best values in the nudist industry.

Well a hotel group in France got tired of other hotel sites misleading information and is suing Experida, Hotels.com and tripadvisor.

Here's the story:


"Expedia, Hotels.com and TripAdvisor accused of spreading false information

Synhorcat, a union of French hoteliers is taking legal action against Expedia and two of its subsidiaries, TripAdvisor and Hotels.com, accusing them of unfair trade practices.

The lawsuit filed by Synhorcat at the Commercial Court in Paris last week claims that the close relationship between TripAdvisor and Expedia/Hotels.com leads to situations, where hotels that are not working with Expedia are listed on TripAdvisor with no rooms available, although they have availability.

The union calls this a “discriminatory practice”, that not only leads to false information for the consumer, but is also potentially deterring consumers from contacting the hotel directly to book a room.

In addition, the lawsuit criticizes Expedia’s promotional claim of “up to 75% discounts on hotel rates” as misleading for consumers...

According to Synhorcat, Expedia’s promotional claim also has the potential to deter consumers from booking the hotel directly, as they are made believe that the deepest discounts are available on Expedia.

“We have nothing against the Internet, in contrary,” says Didier Chenet, President of Synhorcat, “but we cannot let these practices penalize hoteliers.”

The Terra Cotta inn is a fantastic deal which is why we have one of the highest occupancy rates in Palm Springs.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, unique vacation experience.

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!

CLICK HERE FOR AIR CANADA SALE WEBPAGE

The sale ends midnight Thursday February 19, EST.

I post the Canadian airfare sales because year round we have more room nights booked by Canadian guests than we do guests from California. As an example, tonight, we are 75% booked, we have 1 couple from California here and 4 from Canada. And tomorrow, we just have 2 empty rooms as we have 2 more Canadian couples checking in.

We are the ONLY nudist resort in the western US that caters to couples on vacation, so everyone from Canada loves staying with us. Also the Vancouver Sun newspaper last October picked us as one of the best places in the world to go nude sunbathing.

What is so nice about this airfare sale is normally Canadian guests don't get many airfare sales to the US in the summer. So this is great for your planning your summer and fall vacations.

Don't forget we have our annual summertime room discounts in July and August.

You will need to fly into LAX, San Diego, or Las Vegas using Air Canada.

So give us a call at 800-786-6938 (toll free Canada and US) to check on availability. We answer the phones from 8am-10pm PST.

If you have ever wanted to try topless or nude sunbathing, now is the time as we are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and perfect for couples trying 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.
