December, 2009 - Longtime SCNA member Judith Stransky recently visited Club Orient over the holidays. She sent us this pictorial below of her wonderful experiences there. “For me," she wrote, "Club O is definitely Paradise-By-the-Sea.”
Top left: We're not allowed to take pictures of people (nude) on the beach.....therefore, there are no people in this photo (but yes, the nudists were around!) Top right: Linda and Steve Payne pose with Judith in front of Papagayo Restaurant during the weekly Club O Wine and Cheese party. Steve and Linda were managers of the Papagayo for 5 years before being lured away to open and build out Desert Shadows in Palm Springs. After the recent turnover of management there the couple returned to Club O as managers. They told me it was like “coming home” to them.
Above left: Everyone takes a photo of themselves at the Club Orient welcome sign and I was no exception. Above right: This is the view from the beach of my chalet, which is classified as a Beach Chalet (some chalets are Beach Chalets, and the others are Garden Chalets, depending on where they are on grounds). The chalets are very attractive (pastel colors against white walls, and light colored tile floors and pine and wicker furniture). They are very comfortable inside, and all have air conditioning.
