The Naked French Villa: Blissful Clothing-optional Travel Experiences for Men

From its base in the USA, Everything To Sea was founded in 2018, when the brand unveiled its first male-only clothing-optional experiences in Southeast Asia. In just a few short years, Everything To Sea started offering novel, unforgettable, and genuine experiences in five destinations across Asia and Europe. Today, the brand’s destinations include Thailand, France, The Coral Triangle and The Canary Islands. These experiences are open to men of all sizes, shapes, ages, and walks of life who want to enjoy comfort their way… Whether it’s in shorts, a sarong, speedo, G-string, or birthday suit.

With Everything To Sea, there are a variety of ways to travel. Want to enjoy a naked experience with men from your social group only? You put together the guests, and Everything To Sea will organize a stellar trip. Prefer to meet new travelers with your affinity as you explore an exciting new destination? Join a small-group expedition on land or at sea to meet other men like you. Alternatively, you can book an unforgettable adventure privately with just you and two guys from Everything To Sea–three men traveling together. Imagine having shared, intimate experiences with two new friends.

Situated in a quiet village in the South of France’s Occitanie region is The Naked French Villa, a lovingly restored mansion with a plethora of decorative features from different historical periods, plus facilities that range from an intimate whirlpool to a heated pool.

Inside The Naked French Villa are 11 guest rooms, most of which boast terraces or balconies offering stunning views of the grounds. All the rooms have luxuries such as ensuite bathrooms, refrigerators, air conditioning, and comfortable single through to super-king-sized beds. Downstairs, there’s a lounge where you can mingle with other naked men. In the living room upstairs, you’ll find a bar, games, and a library area. Throughout the building, you’ll notice stylish features ranging from stone walls and old wooden beams to elegant French doors and encaustic tiles.

Outside, there’s an inviting heated pool that’s perfect for a swim no matter what the weather brings. For a quieter dip in your birthday suit, walk around the corner to the whirlpool. There’s also a covered summer parlor nearby, where you can take a relaxing stroll among the sweetly scented jasmine and lavender.

Your stay at The Naked French Villa includes a full itinerary of exciting activities. Each day, you can choose either a ‘Famous Activity’ and an ‘Off-The-Beaten-Path Activity,’ giving you the chance to tick a variety of must-do and one-of-a-kind experiences off your bucket list. Activities include tours of medieval castles, a boat ride along charming French canals, wine tasting at a family-run organic vineyard, excursions to nude beaches, river kayaking, and so much more.

Everything To Sea will be hosting The Naked French Villa from the 11th to the 17th of September in 2024 and from the 1st to the 7th of September in 2025. If you’re hooked already, book your trip here and get ready for the experience of a lifetime.

At Mr Hudson, we’re lucky to have recently had a conversation with the founders of Everything To Sea, who told us about their motivations for starting the company, who their experiences are geared towards, what kind of experiences they aim to create, and what makes their company so special within the travel industry.

The motivation to create Everything To Sea came from a desire to create spaces where men can feel free, comfortable, and liberated in their own skin. Along with co-founder Max Strauss, Dave Power recognized that the travel market has a lack of inclusive spaces for men to bare all, unwind, and connect with nature free from the judgements, pressures, and constraints of modern society. With Everything To Sea, men can escape the confines of their clothing – and connect with compatible individuals.

“By organizing these trips, we aim to cultivate an environment where men can support and uplift one another. Ultimately, founding this company was driven by a passion for creating spaces of authenticity, self-expression, and camaraderie, where men can embrace their true selves and experience the freedom that comes with it.”

Overall, the folks at Everything To Sea are on a mission to provide travelers with unique and adventurous experiences – a truly different kind of holiday. The Naked French Villa is a fine example of Everything To Sea’s offerings that encapsulates all the brand’s values. At this elegant, centuries-old mansion, you can enjoy the luxury of a gorgeous villa overlaid with the freedom of being in a clothing-optional environment, leaving you free to partake in a range of interesting “Famous” and “Off-The-Beaten-Path” activities that get you closer to nature and other likeminded men.

“Ideal for those who appreciate the finer things in life, our exclusive retreat invites guests to embrace their authentic selves in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Whether they’re lounging poolside, exploring the scenic surroundings, or engaging in meaningful conversations under the Mediterranean sun, The Naked French Villa offers an unforgettable experience designed to rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit.”
