Retirement affords us the time to try new things, take on new adventures, and check off bucket list items. Yet one of the biggest challenges of retirement can be how to spend quality time, be “one with nature,” and among like-minded friends and neighbors, without spending a lot of money.
This is where the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR), an organization 90 years young, comes into play. They recommend you don’t retire from life just because you’ve retired from work. Rather, reconnect with that free spirit you embodied back in the day.
It's a common misconception that everyone who retires to a clothing-optional resort community is a long-time nudist. Not so. For instance, Cypress Cove Nudist Resort in Kissimmee, Florida, often sees retirees who are fairly new try out the nudist way of life by taking a “nakation vacation” on property. (Cypress Cove, as with many other nudist communities, require prior visitation before becoming a homeowner.) if you’re new to nudism, don’t let that prevent you from considering this kind of fun-in-the-sun retirement, living life au natural.
After sampling the camaraderie fostered at clothes-free and clothing-optional resort and campground communities, you may just consider retiring to a budget-friendly nudist environment, either seasonally or full time. Most such communities are tied to nudist resorts, which offer residents access to the resort’s recreational amenities such as pools, lakes, watercraft, gyms/fitness classes and more, resulting in savings that help keep your out-of-pocket entertainment costs down.
Another cost-saving pro is a large percentage of nudist community residences feature modular or manufactured homes, which may be less expensive than traditional construction. They also tend to be located in warmer climate zones resulting in lower home heating costs, as well as low electricity bills for laundry, because living as a nudist drastically cuts wardrobe expenses and clothes hamper fill ups.
Other ways to enjoy living au natural include housekeeping, gardening, or exercising in the nude. By doing so you sweat less, don’t dirty clothes, and shrink your clothes washing loads too. Did you know that in the Sunbelt (or elsewhere in the summer), by turning up your central air conditioning thermostat one degree, fuel consumption can be cut by as much as 10%. For the eco-conscious, all these clothes-free activities help in lowering one’s carbon footprint.
When moving someplace new, retirees often seek areas known for fostering a strong sense of community, which aids in preventing isolation loneliness in the golden years and promotes emotional well-being. In nudist communities being neighborly is the norm. Before retirement one was white collar or blue collar. Now, wearing no collar, class distinctions evaporate. And, if neighbors have a skill, they’ll pitch in with handyman and other help, saving you on expenses charged by tradesmen.
There are also definite health benefits to nude recreation and clothes-free living. As cited in Health Digest, “Skinny dipping allows the sun's rays to hit every part of our body. As a result, our skin is soaking in a hefty helping of vitamin D. Even just a quick 15-minute dip can boost immunity far more than any supplement can (via Volonte Science and Medical Advisory Board). Not to mention, vitamin D also does wonders for brain and bone function while enhancing quality of sleep (via Brooklinen). Additionally, sweat is completely released without the hindrance of tight clothing, allowing toxins to be fully flushed from the body. In addition to physical benefits, the wellness benefits of skinny dipping also extend into one's mental and emotional health. A 2017 review published in the Journal of Happiness Studies found that engaging in nude recreational activities had a positive impact on self-confidence, body image, and quality of life.”
With all these “pros” the only significant emotional or financial “con” is that some friends and family may not visit you in your nudist community, which means you will have to incur travel expenses to go visit them in their comfort zone. Or, you may need to leave your nudist environment if you require assisted living or nursing home care down the road.

When you’re ready to investigate retiring in a nudist community, it’s important, as with any real estate purchase, to do your homework. There are wholesome family-friendly, nurturing nudist communities, such as those affiliated with AANR. There are also other types. So, scrutinize your options to avoid venues that may not be the right fit for you.
When it comes down to purchasing a home in a nudist community you should know that, as with many subdivisions, there may be a homeowner’s association with fees, monthly lot lease assessments, and rules and regulations that apply. You’ll want to be mindful of those restrictions and covenants to determine if a particular neighborhood is right for you.
Also, if you need to finance, be sure to build additional time into your mortgage acquisition process. Your first lender may be unable to accommodate a loan on the type of housing available or has additional questions prior to your securing the loan. The difference in this time lag typically averages between 35 and 45 days. But don’t be surprised if there’s no delay, either!
A good source for information about a prospective community is, of course, their website, which should provide information on property listings, general amenities, regulations governing demeanor, and more. Property listings found on the website are usually provided by the homeowner or their real estate agent, and negotiations would be between the interested party and the individual homeowner, not the resort community management. That said, a residential manager at the resort/community may be a resource for answering general questions and providing insights.
As we are currently in a hot real estate market, with mortgage rates at record lows and a lack of available inventory fueled by a rise in housing demand, properties are selling quickly. Especially in those Sunbelt regions so popular with retirees.
Cypress Cove resident manager Armando Colon notes, “As a potential homebuyer make sure you’re ahead of the game. If serious about retiring in a nudist community, you will need to get pre-approved for residency. Your first step would be to establish history with that particular club by nakationing there over multiple times to interact and foster relationships with other guests, residents, and staff. There will definitely be a vetting process so the interested buyer can determine if the community is a good fit for them and the community finds them a good fit as well. This includes a full criminal background check being taken, and then a credit check. Even if the buyer does not require a home loan, the community owns the lot on which it sits and which is leased monthly, ergo the rationale for the credit check. Once completed, an orientation then takes place on the community’s “dos and don’ts.” After these steps have been accomplished, a prospective buyer can then reach out to a seller. All in all, the entire application process typically occurs in about a two-week timeframe.”
It’s recommended that you complete the application process well in advance so when a property does come on the market, you’re poised to act. Oh, and don’t be surprised if you find yourself in a bit of a bidding war. The freedom the nudist homeowner enjoys has lasting appeal for a broad spectrum of the retiring population seeking homes in communities with like-minded people, and neighbors who share the same values and interests.

I have a confession to make: I quite like getting around with my gear off.
To clarify, I’m only clothes-free within the confines of my own home. You won’t find me baring all on a nudist beach, or playing mixed doubles in the buff at a naturist camp, or at the World Naked Bike Ride in Sydney.
I haven’t always had a penchant for being a nudie-rudie; in fact, growing up I was quite the prude when it came to being in the ‘altogether’.
Of course, like any self-respecting toddler I used to LOVE nappy-free time and not wearing anything at all, apart from my Dad’s tennis shoes.
Maybe it was a British thing, and maybe it was because it was too cold in my homeland to be sans clothes.
At school I was always the one who would wait for the one cubicle that had a door to put my PE gear on rather than getting changed in the communal area.
It began a few years ago, when I separated from my husband and moved out of the family home.
I moved into a top floor unit and no one could see in, and as my son was only very young at the time being naked was fine. It felt so liberating. Plus, as the unit was near the beach, with the balcony door and windows open the sea breeze felt fab on my bits.

We only stayed at that rental for a short time and the next move was to another unit block.
Again, it was quite private—only my kitchen was looked in on by one another apartment. As my neighbours were literally never there, I happily continued my #freethenipple get up.
One Sunday morning—coffee brewing, Barbra Streisand blasting—I was enjoying a karaoke dance-off for one. (My galley kitchen with its polished concrete floors made a fantastic dance floor for my moves.)
As Babs' duet with Donna Summer came on I was in my element, and would have given any drag queen performing in Oxford Street a run for her money. I was belting out “Enough is enough, I can’t go on, no, no, no!” in my birthday suit.
Just as I was bringing the song home with some serious big arms movements, I looked out of the open window and locked eyes with the two guys in the opposite kitchen who were at the sink watching me.
It was obvious the two chaps loved Babs way more than they had any interest in me, and I grabbed a tea towel to hide my modesty and mouthed 'Sorry'.
This is a real shame, as our new house is perfect for those who like being in the buff. We live on a hill on a corner block; the only one house that overlooks our garden is currently vacant.
We are on a great block of land, have a pool and a beautiful view of the waterways—you feel like you are one with nature.
Speaking of nature, yes, I have ventured into our garden without anything on. Have I hung out the washing on the Hills Hoist au naturel ? Maybe, once or twice…
As I am the first one up in the morning, and because it has been so hot of late, I tend to do all my chores undressed—lunch box packing, ironing, dishwasher unpacking etc.
We live in a 1960’s bungalow and our laundry is downstairs, you need to go out the back door and down the back steps to get to it.
One morning I had the dress I wanted to wear for work on a hanger, wireless headphones on (listening to the radio), and I was heading to the laundry to iron.
As I walked out the back door, two gardeners, with their chainsaws poised on my neighbour’s trees, stopped what they were doing, a look of horror on their faces.
What a bloody sight I made: a middle aged mum, wearing only headphones stood there staring back at them with an equal look of terror.
To make it worse I wasn’t holding my tummy in, and as garden landscapers I’ve got no idea what they made of my ‘landscaping’ area.
I presume gardeners must get paid well for having to work up tall trees and use scary equipment like chainsaws, and no doubt they asked for danger money after finishing this particular job.
And me? Well, I am keeping myself well covered now (apart from in the bathroom and bedroom), much to the joy of my son and any future tradespeople in the area.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 19/08/2017 (1844 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: My husband and I have been nudists for 26 years, and raised our son in a nudist home. As dedicated nudists we have always gone completely naked everywhere around our home all the time, except when our son has friends over.
Our son is now 21 and has had a girlfriend for just over six months who is not aware we are nudists. Now she is staying over two-to-three nights a week and we are still having to get dressed for her visits. She is shy.
Also, with our son, we don’t want to cause any issues that may result in him moving out before being able to save up enough money to afford a home.
We have talked to some nudist friends of ours who suggested a few things, since broaching the subject with her does not seem to be an option. The most common suggestion was getting accidentally caught naked by her. Be it getting up in the middle of the night to pee and going naked to the bathroom (she sometimes gets up at night to pee, too, so either of us might run into each other), or getting ready for work in the morning by going to and from the bathroom naked, making and eating breakfast naked or by us staying naked when she comes over alone while our son is at work.
When she uses her key we’ll pretend not to have heard the door when we run into her. We would be very casual about it when caught naked, and then hope to be able to talk to her about it and give her the option to go naked around the house, too. Our son would probably love being greeted by his naked girlfriend at the door when he got home that first time.
Other suggestions have been to leave a nudist magazine out for her to see, and see if she says anything to us, and if not, then bring it up. Another was to have some nudist magazines in with some other things such as photos, year books, etc. and then she can accidentally come across it when going through the albums, and then we can talk about it.
They all seem like good ideas, but most of our friends favour the accidental nudity since it is what has worked for some of them. We realize we may have let this go on too long (our mistake) but again, we didn’t want our lifestyle to be an issue in their developing relationship, which is now very strong.
Could you please offer up your thoughts or any other suggestions? All the best. — M and G, Winnipeg
Dear M and G: Moving out would be an all-round good idea for a man who is now in his 20s. Then everybody gets privacy and freedom and the son gets to grow up. The young woman wouldn’t be pressured to accept a nudist lifestyle with her boyfriend’s parents, if she wasn’t big on it.
You say you don’t want your 21-year-old son to move out until he can afford a home — these days, that could mean age 30. That’s not healthy for your son’s development. Encourage him to fly. And here’s the good part for you: once he moves out, you can be nude full-time at home again.
Accidentally running into nude parents anywhere in the house is not a cool idea. The magazines on the coffee table are slightly a better move.
Why not encourage your son to be open and honest about it? He needs to be the one to tell his girlfriend in private that your family usually lives a nudist lifestyle at home, especially now she’s staying over several nights a week.
I grew up in the country, but one I summer I was living in the city for theatre school, I had a city boyfriend who took me home (I was 16) when no one was there. I spotted a shadowy picture on the wall and said asked who the naked people in the picture were. He said, “My mom and dad, they’re nudists.” And, I concluded fairly quickly, so was he. But I wasn’t into it, and he didn’t push it.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: Far away, in a country I barely remember, live my grandparents. They don’t like to travel anymore
