Blessings of The Cove 2025

As we close another wonderful year and enter this special season of gratitude and giving, Cypress Cove is proud to continue a beloved tradition: “Blessings of The Cove.” This heartfelt holiday program is dedicated to supporting members of our nudist family who may be experiencing exceptional challenges this season.

Through the end of the year, Cypress Cove residents and members are invited to share how we can best support you or someone you know. If you’re in need, please reach out and let us know what would bring the most relief or joy to your holiday season. Each week, a letter will be selected, and we’ll respond with assistance to help brighten your holidays.

Letters may be dropped off at the Main Office, addressed to Blessing of the Cove Committee, or emailed to CoveCares@cypresscoveresort.com.

Cypress Cove’s legacy has always been rooted in kindness, compassion, and community. This year, our focus is once again on those “inside the gate”— our own members and friends who make this place feel like home. We understand it’s not always easy to ask for help, but please don’t hesitate to reach out if you or someone you know could use a little extra support this season.

For those who are able to give, we invite you to join us in spreading the joy. Contributions to the Blessings of The Cove program can be made by following this link and selecting the corresponding donation option. Together, let’s ensure that the blessings of this season reach every corner of our incredible community.

With heartfelt thanks and gratitude,
 

Peter Sewall
General Manager

Mardi Gras Date Change – Mark Your Calendars!

The Mardi Gras Committee has an exciting update to share: this year’s Mardi Gras Celebration at Cypress Cove will take place on Tuesday, March 3, 2026.

Why the change? We want to make sure no one misses out! By shifting the celebration just a bit, our Cove family can enjoy Mardi Gras in the best of both worlds:

• Those sailing away on the Nude Cruise will be back in time to join the festivities right here at home.
• Those planning to head to New Orleans can still soak in the Big Easy experience—and then relive it with us, Cove-style (and clothing optional!).

Mardi Gras at the Cove is all about celebration—and this move helps ensure more members and guests can join in the parades, beads, music, food, and fun that define the tradition. If you've already made reservations for the original dates, please give us a call at 407-933-5870 to change your dates.

Mark your calendars, dust off those masks and costumes, take note of the theme: Mardi Gras — Cove Style, and get ready to laissez les bon temps rouler—Cove-style—on March 3!
