Naturist Rules and Etiquette

There are some things you must learn about naturist etiquette. When you go to any clothing optional or nudist location, whether it is a beach, resort or private home there is a common etiquette which you need to understand and obey. Breaching the etiquette and refusing to correct your behaviour if requested, may lead to cancel your booking during your stay and no refund will be given.

#1 Nude Areas

Often only some areas of the property are reserved for practising nudism. Other areas or facilites may require full clothing. Check this with your host latest on arrival.

#2 Towels

Carry a towel with you anywhere you go. This is to be used under you wherever you decide to park yourself, sitting or lying. Always use a towel under you!

#3 Shower

If you are going in to a sauna, pool or jacuzzi used also by other guests or hosts — shower properly before going in. It is mostly because it helps to keep the water cleaner longer, use less chemicals in it – and just makes others feel more comfortable to use the same amenities after or with you.

#4 Camera

Typically use of camera among nude people is not allowed. Some people just might not want to end in your photo album bare naked. Anyways if you feel to capture the moment is a must, you can ask each and everyone in the shot to give their permission.

#5 Eye Contact

It is considered very rude to talk to other people bodies in the textile world. In naturist community it is considered even more rude. Keep eye contact while having conversation with you naked counterparts.

# 6 No Staring at People

A nudist environment should be a safe, nonsexual space. The whole point of going nude in a safe environment is being comfortable in your natural skin. So please, don’t stare or you will be considered a perv.

#7 Clothes

Many Naturist BnB places are ”clothing optional”. It means you can wear some clothing if you prefer. On the other hand some may practice strict ”nude only” rule. In both cases clothes are allowed when its cold or to protect your body. However, lingerie is not considered proper attire.

#8 No sexual behaviour

Don’t show any sexual activity in a public. Naturally you can hold hands and kiss if you feel to. Use your common sense. Passionate kissing and touching in public may get others feels uncomfortable. Use your common sense and leave the sex acts in the privacy of your room.

#8 Erections

These are actually very uncommon. Even if you are new to naturism. But if it does, just cover it up – you have the towel with you, remember? If you are lying under the sun, turn around would be enough. If you see someone with an purposely showing his erection, let a host know about this. They know how to deal with it.

    I have wanted to visit a nudist colony specifically to see how good it feels to be among other people who share in the same ideas and beliefs as I do. It would be really quiet a honor to visit your establishment and feel welcomed and relaxed among many others that enjoy the freedom that one feels after discarding the heaviness of today’s modern wardrobe and how one feels more like a real human being

    Hi. Great idea. As a gay couple we would prefer to limit guests to gay guys / all male clientele. Are you happy with that.

      Yes. Definitely! We have no problem with that. Just make it clear in your listing. Welcome on board!

      Just for your considerations: We have stayed as a straight couple in some male gay run places and did get along very well. Maybe you would like to consider trying out how that goes… Anyhow, the decision is yours.

        Totally agree. Most of my guests are gay men. But I like to have females and straight guys as guest as well. In wintertime I even welcome textile people (That’s kinky, isn’t it?) I just like to meet all kinds of people from all over the world.

        We pretty much side you with your comment. Anyhow, on homestay hospitality the host has higher need to be selective of the guests. If someone does not want to host a guest for any reason, he has ultimate decision making power to choose who they will let inside of their home.

      You are correct when it comes to businesses. So far we have allowed this to hosts who live on the property and are offering spare room for guests. People should be able to select the people they are going to invite their home to. We do not consider this as running a business. Regulators in some countries may have opposing view and all hosts are responsible to follow the rule of law and regulations of that particular country. Anyhow would be great to hear other users comments on this. Feel free to comment here!

    Get to know the purpose of naturism. Naturism is about more than the simple act of being nude; it’s also about getting closer to nature. In your natural state, there are no boundaries between yourself and the natural world. How freeing and exhilarating would it feel to lie naked on the beach, or under a tree, one with the natural world and comfortable in your own skin? People choose naturism to reach this particular height of happiness

      Seems not at this moment. We have a lot in other countries, but none in FKK home country, Germany. Maybe that is because of language barrier. Or Maybe they just have not found us yet. Would you like to start hosting? We strognly recommend all naturist to open their house to fellow naturists. It is a great experience for hosts and guests alike! Try it!

    I run my house as a hostel – would an acceptable use of your service allow me to set specific days (like one weekend per month for example) as “nude days” and as such just adjust my calendar and prices here?

      Yes. It is perfectly acceptable. Actually I think it is excellent idea and would like to see more inn keepers to do same!

    Hi, we have often talk about doing nude cruises on our 43’ privately owned sailing catamaran. This site sound like a perfect place to present this ideas to nature lovers. We are located on the west central coast of Florida. Do you think this idea would go over well on your site.

      I am sure it will. We have some sailboats here already: Greece, Croatia and Thailand. Florida west coast sounds like a really attractive destination for Europeans also. Go ahead and list it!

      There is some issues with location based search as we in a process of moving away from Google maps. It may also be that your with your search parameters there simply are not more results. Naturist accommodation is not available to everywhere as yet.

    Salve, questa è la seconda estate che sono iscritto a naturisti bnb. Mi piacerebbe molto ospitare voi naturisti perché ho capito che siete delle persone molto rispettose delle regole e sinceramente mi sono stancato di ospitare gente che non ha rispetto. Con questo sito ho avuto qualche contatto però alla fine non è mai venuto nessuno. Ho pensato di organizzarmi eventualmente con un gommone o motoscafo per farvi visitare le bellezze delle isole e potervi mettere in totale libertà. Che ne pensate?

    Best way to find out is to search by location (type “orlando” int he search box). Orlando seems to have 2 at the moment while San Diego don’t give any search results.

    Other way to find based on location is to use interactive map search: https://www.naturistbnb.com/advanced-search-map/

    Screw Rule #8 … ERECTIONS. Erections are a normal and natural part of being a guy. Sometimes an erection is a reaction to sexual stimulation, but more often not. Hard-ons happen. Forcing guys to “cover up” is sexist and elitist.
