So there are many places to lounge and enjoy the weather and socialize during the day? There are several options:
1. Clothing optional "Main" pool (you can be nude, fully clothed or anything in between) Mostly sun...not much shade. One seating area off to the side but in full sun The only area with volley ball Near the main bar Not far from dining room Moderately busy
2. Lower level "quiet" pool Clothing optional just like main pool areas of shade and sun with more seating areas and table IN the pool Full service bar attached but not really a swim up bar closer to the prude beach grill for snacks
3. Nude pool This is the action area. Areas of sun and shade Swim up bar Several seating areas in the water and tables in the water It can be quite noisy during the day, especially if there are any planned parties by one of the groups with a DJ on site. areas of sun and shade Near main hot tub - which of course isn't used much during the warmer hours Pretty crowded most of the time.
If we hang out at the lower level pool, they will provide a speaker for us to hook up our IPODs and have our own music.
Everyone is welcome to go where ever they wish of course and sometimes everything changes once we get there...one time the main pool is too crowded and too loud and another time everyone feels rather bored at the lower level pool.
However if we want to make definite plans on where everyone can expect to meet up so that you can look for other members of our group during the times you feel like socializing more.
Any thoughts?

Suzi and I will be probably at 2 or 3. With my beautiful Irish American Wife's fair skin, we will be limited to there. Oh I hope they still have the waterslide in the prude side? As far as Music, I'm a Jazz fan and I'll be under my headphones when I want to listen to music. That doesn't mean you can't interrupt me if you want to talk The last time I was there the house band were incredible! I'm hoping for the same this time!

Without having been there I'm not sure, but I imagine as a single I'll be primarily at #3?? But I can see it easily changing depending on the crowd, how hot the sun is etc. For those of you who already know all this stuff I guess I'll be taking my cues from you... Music wise I'm usually good with whatever.. For Steve, I understand your thoughts about Suzi's skin. My wife (who is deceased) was very fair skinned herself so I know all too well your concern. (And for me and this being early in the season and not having a base tan for the summer I'm not too far behind Suzi myself.. )

We always search for a place with shade. Neither of us can spend much time in the sun due to past skin problems.
We will go to the main/clothing optional pool on occasion if the group is there but mostly we will walk past the lower level pool and if no one is hanging out there, head to the nude pool.
If the nude pool gets too loud, we usually prefer to leave and go to the lower level pool.
The main pool is also the place to go if anyone wants to play volley ball so depending on the group, we may wind up there at any time. Also the small seating area to the right side of the pool (leaving the main dining room) has some shade in the late afternoon.
There is a small hot tub to the left side of the pool but it was closed down last time we were there...looked like they were repairing it but there wasn't actually any work being done on it.
Someone mentioned the water slide...it is on the prude/clothing optional side. Most people will slide nude! It is a LOT of fun!

The water slide (nude) sounds like great fun! And on second thought I'll prob be at Pool 1 (for the volleyball) equally to Pool 3.
