Lifestyle vacations: swinger resorts, cruises and Cap d'Agde — a first-timer's guide

Imagine a week where nobody knows you. Where every couple at the pool is there for the same reason you are. Where dinner turns into dancing, dancing turns into a theme party, and the theme party turns into… well, whatever you both want it to turn into. And on Monday morning, nobody at home will ever know.

That's the appeal of lifestyle travel. For a lot of couples, it's the moment the lifestyle goes from "something we do sometimes" to "something we really live". It can also be a lot — so it's worth going in prepared.
