A new travel guide has been published to help couples find the best places in the world – not just to stay but to get intimate!
SKYN® a premium condom and lubricant brand has teamed up with global agency Sid Lee Paris, to create ‘Places of Intimacy’ – the guide to the 30 best places to get intimate around the world. The guide includes several glamping sites such as Paperbark Camp (safari tents) and Thala Beach Nature Reserve (treehouses) in Australia, Pousada Camurim in Brazil (cabanas) and Cosmico, Miami (tipis).
“We decided to shift this conversation around our brand purpose – better intimacy for deeper human connection and more pleasurable sex,” say Céline and Clément Mornet-Landa, Creative Directors Sid Lee Paris.
“Places of Intimacy” lives up to its promise- full of first-hand accounts about the most spacious bath, the most resistant curtains, the wildest carpet, or the mirrored room. This guide is distinct in that each review was written by SKYN® consumers or “intimate travellers” that visited and tested each spot featured in the guide.
“After orchestrating a global recruitment via a digital experience that couples accessed through their smartphones, we recruited 12 couples in 6 countries. For 3 months, we sent them to dozens of hotel rooms across the globe to test SKYN® products (in ideal conditions) and tell us about the intimate spots that inspired their intimacy. In the guide, you’ll discover the photos and stories that they shared with us.”
The book guide, designed by French design house, Irradié, was sent around the world. The digital version provides an immersive peek into 30 sensual stories and the highly-detailed, incredibly specific places that set the stage. “As the brand that champions intimacy, we were set on creating a global experience that imparts our “Feel Everything” promise in allowing our consumers to be a part of it. This is our testament that intimacy can indeed be found anywhere and everywhere, and an invitation to our consumers to go on a trip and explore intimacy” (Jeyan Heper, Chief Executive Officer, LifeStyles Healthcare).
International Glamping Business Editor Steph Curtis-Raleigh believes that providing sensual places for couples to stay – with plenty of privacy – could be a key trend for glamping businesses. “Many glamping sites are ideal for honeymooners or couples who want to get away from it all to concentrate on each other,” she says. “We will focus on this in our upcoming May issue, where we will talk to Sid Lee about this project. Providing quirky, sensual and stimulating accommodation, that’s as luxurious and private as it can be, are clearly priorities for couples who will be willing to spend more to lose themselves for a few days together.”
