FAQ

I'm a single man, can I visit Paradise ?

Of course! Unlike most nudist or clothing optional resorts, Paradise welomes single guys. As long as you pay the appropriate daily membership fees, you are welcome to enjoy all that Paradise has to offer!

Must I go nude all the time at Paradise Lakes?

Absolutely not! Our resort is clothing optional, which means you never have to be nude. Most everyone goes nude around the pool area, but many of our members and guests dress for dinner, in the evenings, or in the L'Attitudes dining room. At Paradise Lakes, you can wear as little or as much as you like, wherever you like.

Is nude recreation mainstream activity?

The answer to this question is a resounding YES!

As reported in USA TODAY, The Yankelovich National Travel Monitor is one of the most respected polls in the travel industry. The 2006 edition of that poll found that 15% of adult Americans would consider a resort that offers a nude recreation experience or a clothing-optional beach experience either extremely or a very desirable part of a vacation.

In the January 17, 2003 edition of The Wall St. Journal, a front page story in the Marketplace section noted that nude recreation in North America has grown to a $400 million industry. The article explained that clothes-free offerings run the gamut from upscale venues with plush townhouses and room service to rustic rural retreats, to cruises on some of the world’s most popular cruise lines.

What makes Paradise Lakes different from other nudist and clothing-optional facilities?

In a word - everything. We recognize that you have choice when it comes to nude recreation. Since 1981, Paradise Lakes has set the standard for upscale nude recreation in North America. But we never rest on our success, always upgrading our facilities to provide you with the ultimate nude recreation experience.

What kind of people will I meet at Paradise Lakes?

You’ll find a cross section of society, with people representing all colors, religions, occupations, body types, age groups, and income brackets. Without clothes, however, it’s less likely you’ll know a bank president from a bus driver.

Will I feel self-conscious?

Most first-timers adjust to social nudity in a matter of minutes and discover it’s not nearly as big a deal as they thought it would be. Some feel self-conscious before they undress since they’re likely to be the only ones not nude.

Do men get visibly excited?

Not often. Nudist clubs are far less sexually charged than places where bikinis, thongs, or other provocative clothing, are worn. On the rare occasion where this occurs, simply don a towel, turn over, or take a quick dip in the pool.

What's the one thing a first-time visitor to Paradise Lakes should remember?

Sunscreen, for starters. Above all else, have fun. You're in for a vacation to remember. We look forward to seeing more of you soon.
