Top 12 Solo-Friendly All-Inclusive Resorts
Solo travel is incredibly liberating. You gain this overwhelming sense of self and accomplishment. You navigate the pressures of an airport or a lengthy drive to bring your dreams to life. You protect your safety (and sanity) all on your own – and make it all the way back home with a tremendous sense of accomplishment.
Solo traveling to an all-inclusive resort is a wonderful treat and takes things to new heights. All your food and activities are centralized in one beautiful setting and all you have to do is think about healing and relaxation. Savor a spa service. Luxuriate beside a pool. Walk to a decent dinner. Or, if you’re in love with the plush furnishings in your room, order dinner to your suite so you can enjoy the view from your balcony.
All in all, solo travel to an all-inclusive resort delivers all the bells and whistles you can dream up. Together, let’s take a tour through 12 of the best in the world.
Triple Creek Ranch | Montana
Let’s start with a few stateside selections. When we think of all-inclusive resorts, we might think of tropical locales. But we can’t overlook the wonder of a mountain retreat. Triple Creek Ranch proudly bills itself as a hideaway, making it the perfect escape from the rigors of everyday life.
Nestled into an astonishing four million acres of the Bitterroot National Forest, every last luxury will be at your fingertips here. Plenty of invigorating activities like horseback riding, mountain biking, and fly fishing are included in your rate. Then, there are oodles of activities that garner a wonderful sense of accomplishment, like hand-crafting your own cowboy hat.
With standalone cottages, you’ll enjoy a deep sense of privacy, and when you’re ready to mix and mingle, simply head down to the lodge for a delicious meal, some fine wine, and a brand-new friendship.
Lake Austin Spa Resort
While Triple Creek bills itself as a hideaway, Lake Austin’s tagline is wellness on the water. Prettily perched along the misty shorelines of Lake Austin, you’ll find award-winning luxury in a setting designed for healing.
Their talented team of wellness experts will make you feel like you’ve come home the moment you arrive. All their wellness activities, pools, steam rooms, saunas, events, smoothies, juices, meals, and snacks are included in your stay. You can easily take to the water on a paddleboard, as well. With a host of events like exercise classes, wellness experiences, educational sessions, and motivational talks, there’s ample opportunity to enrich your body, mind, and soul throughout your stay.
Lido Beach Resort | Florida
Lido Key is a barrier island off the sumptuous shorelines of Sarasota. Nature lovers unite here to hike, bike, kayak, and relax under the healing rays of the sun. Although it’s not frequently required in Florida, you’ll find heated-only pools onsite, adults-only spaces if you’re looking for quiet, and some lovely dining experiences.
With insatiable views of the Gulf of Mexico, there are plenty of places to perch yourself for an afternoon. And perhaps one of the best perks of this resort is that it’s dog-friendly! Having Fido by our side always makes solo travel a little more enjoyable.
Here, relaxation is the only directive. You can cruise the Gulf on a sailboat, sip on an umbrella drink at their tiki bar, go scuba diving, and cap it all off with a meal at Drift Kitchen & Bar, taking in the glorious display of vibrant colors that only a Gulf Coast sunset can serve.
Alila Ventana Big Sur | California
Like Belize, Big Sur is heaven all on its own. You can travel to nearly any part of it and feel an immense sense of peace. With everything from redwoods to sunny shorelines, it’s basically like stepping into one of Grimm’s fairy tales. As an adults-only escape, you’ll be well cared for at Alila Ventana Big Sur.
Cozy up beside the fireplace in your room after you’ve taken a dip in their hot tubs or washed the day away in an outdoor shower. Start the day with any number of offerings, from Tai Chi to yoga to meditation – all of which are included in your rate. The concierge will also be happy to help you plan an afternoon filled with a peaceful hike and a satiating picnic.
