You may be planning to travel light this summer but how about not packing any holiday clothes at all?

This luxury beachfront resort in Mexico offers five-star style - and the opportunity for guests to shed their swimsuits and their inhibitions.

Hidden Beach Resort bills itself as the only luxurious all-inclusive nudist resort in the Mexican Caribbean and claims to provide an 'intimate environment where guests can feel comfortable clothing free'.

Holiday heaven: The hotel bills itself as the only luxurious all-inclusive nudist resort in the Mexican Caribbean

Set on the Riviera Mayam the adults-only hotel has 42 beachfront suites and those lucky enough to be on the ground floor can swim up to their rooms, which look out across the Caribbean sea.

Guests are greeted with a welcome glass of Champagne and can shed their clothes as soon as they've checked into their luxury suites.

Out of the blue: The resort's pool boasts its own swim-up cocktail bar

In a the deep end: Guests don't need to remember to pack a swimsuit

The rooms all feature Jacuzzis, king-size beds and balconies and the hotel's 'swim-up suites' are connected to the main pool, where guests can enjoy a cocktail at the in-water bar.

The 'clothing optional' resort says it is specifically developed for the needs of the 'nudism enthusiast' and visitors are told that any initial discomfort 'quickly melts away with the warm rays of the sun and the easy camaraderie'.

Bare necessities: Holidaymakers can book a naked beachfront massage

The 'bare necessities' of nudism are explained to guests on arrival and hotel etiquette requires that they carry a towel around with them at all times.

The only time guests have to wear clothing is to play tennis or to visit the neighbouring El Dorado resort.

Activities on offer include naked yoga, water-volleyball and catamaran cruises - there's even an option for body painting classes.

Pool party: Guest can do some nude sunbathing or take a dip in the giant communal hot tub

Naked chef: Dining in the resort's restaurant can also be done 'au naturel'

Holidaymakers can book a beachfront massage, lounge around on the resort's private beach, do some nude sunbathing on the rooftop sun deck or take a dip in the giant communal hot tub.

Dining in the resort's restaurant can also be done 'au naturel' and there is even a naked disco for anyone who finds that clothing hinders their well-rehearsed Saturday Night Fever dance routine.

And for those who want to tie the knot without the hassle of a dress and suit can even stage their nuptials at the resort - at least there wouldn't be any need for a dress code.
