All-inclusive vacations are the ultimate stress relievers, enabling travelers to simply soak in the atmosphere of their destinations while enjoying activities and meals, without ever having to sign a bill.
While there are plenty of big-name, all-inclusive resorts out there, we wanted to share some that are truly unique.Whether a non-traditional destination or boutique experience, here are several of our favorites:
Nestled between Coco Beach and Valley Church Beach on the stunning sunset side of the island, Cocobay Resort is a getaway that will transport you into the lap of relaxing luxury. Breezy, private balconies overlooking serene, turquoise waters are outfitted with comfortable hammocks and private plunge pools, making for the perfect retreat after a day on the sun-soaked, white-sand beach. Other activities include yoga classes, snorkeling and kayaking.
Not every all-inclusive is an island resort. If the great outdoors and mountain adventures are more your style, Dunton Hot Springs is your jam. A secluded resort tucked into the San Juan Mountains of the Colorado Rockies, this must-visit natural wonder boast log cabins in an old ghost town, with welcoming hot springs ready to melt the stress away. Take a horseback ride on the picturesque trails winding through the mountains, or enjoy a relaxing massage overlooking the stunning grounds. Whichever you choose, this unique experience will be one to cherish forever.
This secluded boutique resort is located on its own private Fijian atoll on the warm Beqa Lagoon. With 16 private villas, each with their own plunge pool and private dining deck, guests experience what's best described as 'barefoot luxury.' With a wide range of activities, including private picnics on a remote sand cay, snorkeling house reef tours and cooking classes, you won't ever want to leave!
This Jamaican hideaway's name derives from its 10 acres of limestone cliffs, with 12 thatched cabins and one villa for guests to call home. With two dining gazebos, private caverns and the stunning Blackwell Rum Bar—carved into volcanic ledges and only accessible by a footbridge—getting lost in paradise might be the best "mistake" you make.
One of the most romantic resorts in the world, guests here stay in a stilted villa with dazzling views of the glittering Indian Ocean. If diving from your private deck directly into the lagoon isn't your style, beachside villas open right onto powdery, soothing, snow-white sand. Activities include snorkeling, windsurfing, sunset cruises and yoga sessions.
This luxurious resort in the Blackfoot Valley is perfect for those looking for outdoor adventure during the day and dinner under countless twinkling stars at night. Activities, depending on the season, can include anything from dog sledding to horseback riding to sailing over treetops in a hot air balloon. Whether staying in a luxury timber or ranch house, or even a canvas tent, this is a dream vacation for the adventurous.
If an African safari is something that's always intrigued you, then the luxurious all-inclusive Xaranna Okavango Delta Camp might be exactly what you're looking for. (While not exclusively for adults, we just had to add this extraordinary oasis to this list!) Guests stay in air-conditioned canvas tents with indoor and outdoor showers, private plunge pools, and in-room massages. There are also a variety of activities to enjoy, including bush walks, game drives, birdwatching and boat cruises.
