We have friends who own property there and their opinion is that when this blows over nothing will have changed.

During the half-dozen trips we've taken to Caliente we've wondered how much swinging goes on "under the radar". Based on the fact that most of the women float around in the pool and manage to never mess-up their make-up and hair and that no one under 18 is allowed in the club house after 9:00 pm told us what we wanted to know.

We have been over there for one Aahz Party and had a great time. A bit pricey but a great deal of fun. And let's face it, Aahz is for swingers. I imagine the enormous amount of money that swingers, as a community, spent in one weekend helped the management make the decision to open up to the swing community. As far as we know, there have been no "incidents" to speak of.

One member commented that the way the pricing structure is arranged allows people to use the facility at a greatly reduced rate compared to a yearly membership. The non-AANR fees, daily use fees, room charges and the cost of food and drinks can get pricey in a hurry and they felt that the management had over done it when they reduced the rates to attract people to their establishment.

I imagine that once an equilibrium is reached between the swingers (many) and nudists (few) this will be forgotten. And remember, as we checked-in on our first visit, we were told that overt sexual acts were not permitted in the pool/clubhouse area. I always took that to mean that what you do is okay, so long as it's kept "under the radar".
