You are welcome to customise your visit to suit your needs.
As an alternative retreat for curious adult minds we are often able, to customise your visit & stay. Our core aim to create a space for you to relax, converse openly and take time out from the world, and enjoy our private indoor & outdoor spaces however, we understand each guest is different and has unique requests. It's not just talking - its experiential, if you wish, and if we are comfortable. Where possible we will do our best to assist - we will always be honest & pragmatic from the outset to ensure we understand one another. Feel free to contact us to discuss.
Learn and /or practise giving a massage
The art of giving a relaxing full-body massage can give anyone a very valuable skill to improve intimacy in future relationships. The techniques are very simple and easy to learn.
Massage is well-proven to enable physical intimacy, along with the mental connection formed being in a trusting space. It is a wonderful opportunity for communication and can provide pleasure for both parties.
Lisa has many years experience providing massages and is a patient teacher. Your sessions will be between you and Lisa. We have all year round environments too, no matter the weather.
For singles and couples: Profile & Boudoir Photography
For Singles
We have seen many poor dating profile photos that don't do anyone any favours! How you dress, smile, stand etc all matter for first impressions. Lisa has many years experience behind a camera and John many years working with Photoshop to help capture and present you at your best.
We have classic settings indoors and outdoors along with a quality camera and various lenses plus studio lighting. With Lisa's relaxed & supportive direction you'll get some great shots. Often boudoir photographers only work with women or couples however, we are happy assist men with intimate photo requirements.
For Couples
We use natural lighting where possible to help with your fun photos. Whatever the reason for them, we provide a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment for you to relax in and enjoy the experience.
Navigating Ethical Non Monogamy
Where to Start - Singles & Couples
Insights into, and advice on, different lifestyle platforms, environments and locations to meet people with shared interests. Advice for newbies, the intrigued or those already on their journey but wanting to learn more. With over 10 years experience we have a wealth of experience we can share.
Please note: the most important aspect to this is that, if visiting as a couple, you are both pre-aware and willing to engage in open conversation around the topic. Ambushes simply don't work! We are not here to persuade anyone with an aversion to ENM to change their minds. Even discussing ENM has to be fully consent driven.
Exploring Naturism
At heart, we are both social naturists and have been for many years. If you visit or stay you won't find us wearing swimming togs in the spa, and if the evening is warm we won't dress for drinks.
In general, the Naturist or Sun Clubs in New Zealand are geared up for couples - that said it is possible to become a member as a single man. The exception is KatiKati Naturist Park which is, in general, more relaxed towards single guys as it is a private business not a club.
Regardless of the venue, or whether you are single or a couple, we have a lot of experience in the naturist world and can share our insights. If you are a complete newbie (and we have met many over time) just visiting us will provide an opportunity to experience being clothes free socially to test your comfort levels.
Intimacy
At the heart of what we do is enjoy or facilitate intimacy, which is about communication and consent. We simply provide an intimate retreat for guests looking to escape the world for a while. Whatever your aspirations, goals, paths to explore, we ground all of our words and interactions in respect and require the same in return.
A space to be human, to be an intimate ape.
