Hidden Beach And It's Staff

When we began planning our trip to Hidden Beach Resort (http://www.hiddenbeachresort.com), we had never been to a nude resort other than our Mira Vista Resort in Tucson, Arizona. This is the resort we joined just a year ago which we frequent once or twice a month (depending on weather and time allowance). Now, don’t get me wrong, Mira Vista is quaint, even beautiful, in a desert landscape sort of way… But all-inclusive luxury resort it is not.

As the time of our departure drew nearer, we were getting more and more excited over the prospect of enjoying a relaxing week at a tropical resort. Weeks before we left, we went to Mira Vista for a weekend get-away. A couple we had never met overheard discussion in the conversation pool regarding our upcoming trip to Hidden Beach Resort. They said they had just returned from there, and though it was nice, they stated they were disappointed they had to go there rather than “Club O” (alias for Club Orient, in St. Martin Caribbean). They said nice things about HBR, but never failed to compare how HBR fell short of the elegance and opulence of “Club O”. The sheets were more elegant, the grounds were more beautiful and better cared for, the staff more accommodating, and the lavish treatment they encountered there was just so much better according to them. I was careful to convey that our expectations were pretty modest since we hadn’t experienced any other nude resort outside of Mira Vista. They did assure me it was nice however, just not as nice, but we would definitely like it.

I don’t want to say anything negative about this couple, for they seemed very nice and I’m sure they only wanted to be helpful. But what we found at HBR couldn’t have been further from what this couple described as far as satisfaction with this resort. One thing they seemed to continuously give reference to was the ability to just raise their empty glass in the air and it would immediately be filled.

My husband had reserved a lovely swim-up room for our stay. He was so excited about our good fortune, to have gotten this choice locale in the resort and the ability to walk out of our room, into the water, and swim up to the pool side bar, needless to say he was in seventh heaven. However, this couple didn’t seem to think much of having to swim up to the bar to get a drink, it was such an inconvenience, remember, at Club O, just raise your glass and it was filled. Well, I think you get the picture of the recommendation we were given by them regarding HBR. I can’t fault them; maybe their lifestyle was more grandiose than ours. I guess it’s all just a matter of perspectives.

As we began through the front doors of the lobby we were met by Miguel, America and Camila, (they are the front office concierge staff). We were breezed gently through the check in process to allow us to get us to our rooms quickly and easily so we might begin our relaxing vacation. Our belongings were cheerfully transported to our swim up suite. We were shown the mini bar, the Jacuzzi tub, the spacious vanity, and the walk-in shower with a glass door.

Aniceto

We spent a few minutes unpacking our suitcases, after all, there was not much to unpack for a week's stay at a nudist resort. We then undressed and moved to the patio and into the dining area for a bite to eat. We encountered Angel, Aniceto and Jesus (our waiters who seemed to work 24 hours a day, for they were there for every meal from sunrise to sunset).  They worked every day to serve us with a smile and great kindness. They never left us wanting for a thing if it was there to provide. We were spoiled.

Alberto

Ingrid & Rodrigo

After our meal we went on to the pool and came across the infamous swim up bar where Alberto and Lucy (our bartenders) poured our drinks to our specifications. When our glass was empty, a filled one suddenly appeared... Who needed to raise a glass? Games were played in the pool area, led by Ingrid and Rodrigo (our entertainment directors). They were such lovely young people with never ending enthusiasm, energy, and smiles. They never failed to keep the activities moving and fun to be had by all. 

Our maid service was efficiently provided by Angelica who moved in and out of the room swiftly and proficiently. Our room was cleaned and organized before we would return from breakfast most days. When we returned we’d find a creative towel arrangement of lovebirds, dolls, dinosaurs or teddy bears proudly sitting at the end of our bed with flowers adorning them and rose petals strewn about them.


From the moment we walked up to the entrance, we were greeted with the beautiful smiles of the most genuinely hospitable staff I have ever encountered. “Welcome home” greeted us at every turn. We were unable to carry a thing, open a single door, move a chair or reach for an item without a staff member stepping up and saying, “Please, allow me”. The staff at HBR made our every wish their command, hustling about to meet our every desire. They remembered our names and sweetly followed them with “Mi Amor”.

From our perspective…We had the time of our lives and have never been treated more lavishly. We have already booked our return trip for next year.
