Totes TMI

Bordering on Hannah Montana inappropriate alert, The New York Times aka the source for “All the News that’s Fit to Print” ran an above-the-fold cover story (!) on the Sunday travel section about—are you ready for this—the rise in nude resorts. Jeez, talk about letting it all hang out on your vacation. Now regular readers of this blog know that I’m sooo not into this kind of talk, but the fact that a "reputable" paper would spend more than a gazillion words on the trend made me feel a bit compelled to share the news.

According to the article, the days of au-natural nude getaways equaling natural, granola-type hideaways are about as out as not having a sex tape. It seems that these days, folks that prefer to be in the buff also want the luxury experience to boot. And there’s a host of resorts to cater to these sorts of free-from-clothing-seeking customers.

On Mexico’s Maya Riviera, clothing-optional peeps can stay at the all-inclusive Hidden Beach Resort. It’s got beach butlers, multiple pools and rose-petal turndown service starting at $215 per person per night. And the guest rooms at Sea Mountain Inn in Desert Hot Springs, Cali have flat screen TVs, high-thread count Egyptian cotton sheets and down comforters. And the property even has a day spa. Rates start at $269 a night.

So if baring it all to strangers is your idea of a good time, it might be nice for you to know, you’re not alone.
