I cant understand how its unacceptable to you when people are following rules and exercising their choice. Maybe you should go to a nude resort and not c/o if it bothers you that much!
When you say you don’t understand “how” it’s unacceptable to me that people keep their suits on, I’m going to assume you mean you don’t understand “why” it’s unacceptable to me. I’ll answer that. There’s a phenomenon that occurs in groups wherein the individuals in that group tend to do what the rest of the group is doing. If you get a majority of people going to a c/o resort but they never get nude, then that will be the normative behavior and it will be more difficult, psychologically speaking, for the minority to go nude. This phenomenon is called herd mentality, or wisdom of the group, or by a number of other terms. That’s why it annoys me when people go to a c/o resort but never go nude.
As for your suggestion that I go to a nude resort instead of c/o, that’s a fair and valid suggestion. I actually do go to nude resorts. I like that nude resorts where nudity is required eliminates the gawker demographic. The benefit of Desire is that sexual behavior is allowed. My dream resort is one wherein nudity is required and sexual behavior is allowed. As far as I know, no such resort exists. Until it does, I’ll just have to split my time between Desire and nude resorts.

Several where the wife had full suit on in the tub or sitting on edge. I guess it’s curiosity but we don’t get it why anyone would go to a lifestyle resort if you are not at least curious. Our last two trips have been 75 to 95% NON lifestylers. 95% this time...Nudist and voyeurs: you win! We will find somewhere else to go. Eventually you will have no one to watch. Oh wait... that’s now because our last two visits were none.
We should have known it would end up like this with all the posts on here discussing how scared they were and asking if they will fit in. There are many resorts that have clothing optional rules so why the need to take over a lifestyle resort? Before it’s thought or said, I know everyone has a right to go there... eventually all lifestylers will go somewhere else because it will be mostly nudist and watchers. Also, it’s not us either... our avatar is real!
Room: same as usual, comfortable
Food: it’s gotten worse especially Pearl. Breakfast and lunch were pretty good. Suki was good
Play makers: Excellant!
Night shows: very good
Beach: awful with seaweed but it cannot be helped right now
We don’t mean any disrespect to anyone but this WAS a lifestyle place... not any more in our opinion. It’s not worth the price without the lifestyle.
Any other lifestylers on here... please pm us with any thoughts on a new lifestyle place. Otherwise we will just go to clubs near home in the USA.
Have fun

Swohnewbie wrote:Wow. I won’t even begin to try and unpack all this. Suit/no suit. LS/non LS. Go/won’t go. Seems like a lot of drama to me. And a lot judgement about a resort that’s supposed to be judgement free. We’ll just continue to go as long as we can enjoy our vacation. And when we feel like we’re forced to enjoy someone else’s idea of a vacation, we’ll start going somewhere else. And that will be that.
