As a part two:

Many times people go to the same place, they "think" well nothing has changed, so why write a report. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. Nude/co resorts have been dropping over the last several years. Part of it is/was "I personnally" think was a little bit of greed. Why I say that is because many "ALWAYS" charge a premium for exactly the same accomodations at even the same resort for the c/o option. It gets to the point that is not a good business plan, even though it is completely sustainable at the normal resort prices.

There are tons of people that will pay for the c/o option (and even a premium to some extent), but when you have a 50% to 100% premium????? And why, it is the same cost to do the resort regardless. But they say they loose money because they cannot get regular guest. That is not the case, look at the now defunct Braco or even GL, over 1/2 (more than 1/2 for both Braco and GL) of the resort was textile and less than 1/2 of the resort was c/o. But they charged a huge premium for the c/o side, so much so that many would book the textile side and spend the entire day on the c/o side because of the price differnce on the rooms -- but the service, cost, etc to the resort was the same regardless of which side you staye on.

Just ranting and raving, as it seems at times....... better not go there.
