Very nicely decorated and clean. Tiki theme is one of a kind. Nice view of the lake from the front porch. Hosts were very communicative before, during and after our stay. Would definitely stay there again.

Great property

We had a great time and the condo was exactly as advertised. The screened in porch was especially nice for a morning cup of coffee or a drink in the evening. Doug and Traci were awesome hosts.

Our first visit to Paradise Lakes

Doug and Traci are awesome hosts. We stayed in the freaky tiki; they met us and showed us the condo and made sure we were comfortable and had water and snacks for us since we arrived later than expected. The condo was very quiet, and the bed and pillows were awesome! We slept like a rock! The place was neat and clean and had everything you need on your trip. They also gave some recommendations for places to eat which were great as well. I would highly recommend a stay with Doug and Tracy. We will definitely use them again when we get the opportunity to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Doug Crenshaw

Doug and Traci bought their condo at Paradise Lakes in October of 2020. After being quarantined for months, it was time to do things differently, so they bought what was supposed to be a vacation condo...but they just ended up loving Paradise Lakes so much that they decided to make the move a permanent one. Not only did they go "all in," they let it "all hang out" because Paradise Lakes is a nudist resort!

Traci was no stranger to nudism after entertaining nudists as an internationally touring comedian for 15+ years, the last 8 of those years performing exclusively for nudist resorts, hotel parties, and cruises. She brings 18+ years as an entertainer, and 25+ years of being an entrepreneur in multiple capacities, including promotional products, real estate, and hypnosis. Doug brings 25+ years of real estate management experience in addition to 32+ years in food and beverage experience, 25 of those years with Disney World in Orlando.

Naked Pineapple Getaways is the perfect culmination of what we do best, bringing joy and comfort to others in the place we love most! All of our condos have been renovated from top to bottom and given a fun and memorable theme, and delightful touches of whimsy and humor. We hope that you leave Paradise Lakes with a smile on your face for another reason than because you saw naked people!

Why they chose this property

We christened this unit "Gettin' Freaky in the Tiki" because we bought it fully furnished with the bamboo furniture, which reminded Traci of many of the old roadside Florida motels she stayed in as a kid visiting Florida in the 1970s. One feature that had to go, were the kitchen counter tops and backsplash - little pink tiles - yuck! Doug scraped the tiles off and recreated a board for the backsplash. Traci found the retro fabric and mod podged it where the pink tiles were. A few coats of epoxy later - we had what has to become our signature feature in our units - the funkiest counter tops ever! The Tiki lamp, the bamboo end tables, and many of the bedroom decorations were recycled from another condo. The "pane" window in the living was an old window that Doug painted, and affixed a fabric Hawaiian scene to the back. In the bedroom, there's a slanted shelf we didn't know what to do with, so we created a hammock for a hula girl to leave her coconuts and grass skirts while she skinny dipped. One of our guests accidentally left his swim trunks behind, so we washed them and made them part of the decor (with his permission). This condo was our first to be rented, and we love it because of the screened in patio and view of the water. Enjoy!

What makes this property unique

All of our properties are in Paradise Lakes, which has been a nudist community since the mid 80s. If you've never tried being a nudist - this is a great community to dip your...toes in! We understand that being a nudist is not for everybody...but there's something to be said for not having to squeeze into a tight swim suit. There's something to be said for being accepted for who you are as a person, because no one can judge you by what you're wearing! There is nothing like full freedom and radical body acceptance! We hope to be a positive part of your personal growth, whether you're new to nudism, or just need a nudist tune up!
