My husband and I will be there Nov21-28. I’m a bit conservative so I picked a place out of my comfort zone lol should be interesting...
Good for you!! Outside the comfort zone is not easy but is where all the magic happens. We just got back Labor Day for our first trip to TTR and did not have any idea what to expect with the exception of what we learned her on Cancuncare. Study this site and asks questions. When we were at TTR we met incredible people who were their for the same reason we were, to escape everyday life and to have a good time without being judged. You will hear it over and over again but it truly is an Adult Spring Break atmosphere. Just let loose and enjoy yourselves and at the end of the week , if not sooner, you will be trying to see when the next trip to TTR will fit in your schedule.
Remember you get to decide what you do. And since your dates line up with ours a word of advice, don't do anything the big guy named Kurt tells you to do. Hehehe. Come check out the Chaos Crew thread, it's for people showing up around the 20th of Nov to the beginning of December. I swear most of us are friendly. November / December Chaos Crew 2017 Thread
That's exactly how I felt when I first booked. Turned out to be the most fun I've ever had on vacation.
You will have a blast! I figured I was the conservative type before I took my first trip, I was not sure I'd enjoy the place. The marketing for TTR makes the place look like it's exclusively for hot-looking 20-something couples. Me and my excessive weight, frizzy hair and reserved personality didn't really fit into what I was seeing, but decided it was worth the gamble after talking with people on this website. Turned out I'm less conservative than I thought! Saying that, I'm probably one of the tamer guests, yet I'll be back for my 8th trip 19th Nov to 3rd Dec. TTR is truly a place for people of all sexualities, shapes, sizes, ages and comfort levels. You see people from all walks of life. Everyone is accepted equally and people are very respectful of other's boundaries. It's the best for this, which is why even now when the prices have doubled, I'm still planning trips back. There's nowhere else (that I'm aware of) that is even close to matching what TTR offers in this regard. Only advice I can give, have a frank discussion (first with yourself, then with your other half) about what both of your limits are. Things like clothing choices, nudity, participating in resort games, flirting etc. Plan for a bit of give and take either side of your limits, but I think it's a good idea to set some kind of rules BEFORE you get there. There's nothing worse than watching people's relationship go south because one or both of them have not discussed this beforehand. With the 24/7 party atmosphere, inhibitions relaxed and the drink flowing, it's very easy to overstep and hurt someone unintentionally. Occasionally, you'll see posts on here saying things like 'I've secretly booked this trip for my wife as a surprise, hope she likes the place', 'how can I convince my partner to come on a Boobs Cruise' or 'how do I get her to relax and take her top off' etc. This is not the place for secrets or surprises. Open, honest and transparent conversation about what you both want out of the vacation is something I'd definitely recommend, and it should be done beforehand, so there's no pressure or surprises when you get there. Also, having been in this situation myself, I'd recommend taking some clothes, swim and theme outfits that you'd never dream of wearing. You might be surprised when you get there. After 8 trips over 6 years, my boundaries have certainly expanded a bit. Even worse case scenario, you find it too much, there's always the quiet pool, sports bar, the beach, the restaurants. Even without the debauchery of the sexy pool and late night party, in my opinion TTR matches what other resorts offer in those other amenities alone. I've seen people visit before that found the party too much, so they stayed at the quiet pool all day, did the restaurants at night and went to bed. The risque sexy pool and late night Bash action is there if you want it, but it's not mandatory.
Remember you get to decide what you do. And since your dates line up with ours a word of advice, don't do anything the big guy named Kurt tells you to do. Hehehe. --Hey! I never got any warning about that! lol
We're also first timers going around the same dates (Nov 18-27th) and I've found this site so helpful, open and people are just nice. This was one of the best tips of advice that I have seen for all of us newbies and I just wanted to say thank you
