Girlfriend getaways at clothing optional resorts is the perfect vacation choice


Girlfriends getaways are a major travel niche. I just came across a site called Girlcations. To go to this site click here

This site is about a TV show that will be shot in Atlanta all about girlfriend getaways or as they call them girlcations. A fun play on the words nakations, staycations, and obviously vacations.

Many nudists say not enough women vacation at nudist resorts. Marketing for girlfriend getaways is the perfect way to introduce more women to the nude recreation.

Of course a few policies at nudist resorts will have to change. One is you will have to allow women to go just topless sunbathing. Every few weeks we have a few women staying here taking a girlfriend getaway. If they are not repeats, they always go topless sunbathing first. Most of the time after a day they feel comfortable going nude sunbathing and love the freedom of not wearing any clothes. I know though, if we had a mandatory nudity in the pool rule like most nudist resorts, the women would not come here.

They would go to the European sunbathing pools in Vegas instead so they could try just topless sunbathing instead.

Next, you have to have areas and/or resorts without kids. We have found women coming here for girlfriend getaways do not want to be around naked kids. Many women are school teachers and they do NOT want to hang out at nudist resorts where there are kids. Since we don't cater to families, we are the perfect girlfriend getaway destination.

Whenever we vacation in Las Vegas, we see lots of groups of 2-8 women taking girlfriend getaways. Of course they are wearing clothes or swimsuits. Some, but not too many are at the Las Vegas topless pools.

I think girlfriend getaways are a perfect market for some nudist resorts like ours.

And if you have always wanted to try topless or nude sunbathing, give us, The Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa a call at 800-786-6938. We are the most mainstream nudist resort in the US.

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.

And if you have always wanted to try topless or nude sunbathing, give us a call at 800-786-6938/. Visit our site at http://sunnyfun.com

Hope to see you in sunny Palm Springs!

The Top 10 clothing optional resorts of the world story is very popular





We were very honored when tripadvisor.com picked us this July as one of the 10 best clothing optional resorts in the world. We have always said we were very unique and and popular. Guests love staying at our resort which is why we average over a 75%repeat guest rate which is one of the highest in the travel industry.

The tripadvisor story has been picked up around the world. We have had many first time topless and nude sunbathers book us because of the story.

A women oriented travel site called gogirlfriend.com carried the story. I had posted once before that girlfriend getaways is big business in the travel industry and one niche that the nudist industry is missing out on.

Here is what they wrote:

"Top 10 Clothing-Optional Resorts - Exposed

TripAdvisor releases the list we've all been waiting for
Hands up if you love TripAdvisor? GoGirlfriend isn't affiliated with them in any way, but we love them just the same. It's the gritty, honest reviews written by real people with real experiences that we love the most. But TripAdvisor has an editorial team - and they're pretty cool too - that has just released their top choices for clothing optional vacation.

Relaxing on the Beach - Nude!"For travelers, a great vacation is all about escaping," said Michele Perry, vice president of global communications for TripAdvisor. "For most that means escaping the confines of their homes, for others, it is best achieved by escaping the confines of their clothes."

A clothing optional resort isn't necessarily the same as a purist nudist resort that mandates nudity from the moment you check in. If you want to test clothing optional or adult resort is the perfect fit - pardon the pun. If you're a hard-core nudist, skip to the last resort on the list and get yourself to Orient Beach, St. Maarten..."
