Join the single in-crowd, who love to suit themselves, especially on vacation – here’s an incentive with a selection of the best All Inclusive resorts for singletons.

“Travel not to find yourself, but to find out who you have been all along” – Unknown

Solo travel – once thought of as lonesome travel – is becoming more and more popular, and the travel industry is taking note. To be single and to travel alone is not the rare social situation it once was. After all, we all work hard for our holiday buck – why not spend it precisely to suit ourselves? A limited amount of time and money should be spent exactly as we wish, without the restraint of forced compromise or consideration for travel partners.

Traveling solo can be eye-opening and life changing too. Devise a plan and arrange your own itinerary, go where the wind takes you! Choose from a sunshine-filled wealth of superb all-inclusive resorts, with activities to suit just you, and you alone. You’ll have the choice to make new friends there, or get lost in a book, relaxing in your own time. Get up when you want, eat when you want, and order what you want. Choose that bottle of wine you love, eat more than one delicious dessert – no-one will comment! Interacting with strangers can be fun, but only if you wish, and discovering that the freedom granted by traveling alone is actually a brilliant confidence booster, is an eye-opener.

Encountering problems

Are there are disadvantages to going it alone? Perhaps you’re the sort of less-intrepid traveller who likes someone else to make the decisions? Or you’re newly-divorced and find yourself a little bit lost in a sea of single folk? Then choose an all-inclusive resort, where all you have to do is turn up. Your time is still your own, but decisions are simplified and you can be as social – or not – as you like.

Using common sense

In particular, female solo travelers often worry about personal safety, but all-inclusive resorts are safe and secure places to stay – after all it’s not as though you are trekking across unknown territory alone… nonetheless common sense should be deployed. If you find yourself in conversation with someone you’ve just met, be purposefully vague about your room number or guesthouse, and always keep a close eye on your drink. Speaking of alcohol, don’t overdo it, especially tempting when it’s included in the price.

So, let’s take a closer look at some of the best All Inclusive resorts for singletons, and, you never know, you might even meet your own Mark Darcy or Bridget Jones.

Cancun

Secrets The Vine

Check PricesSecrets The Vine is adults-only, so there won’t be any large family groups to scramble across on your way to the bar. Its hotel zone location means nearby shopping and nightclubbing, if that’s your thing….or enjoy a solo trip to Chichén Itzá, the Mayan ruins, or Isla Mujeres and see the protection and reproduction of the turtle population…all in your own time of course. Back at base, enjoy the luxurious Adults-Only suites, or the relaxing Spa. Their international cuisine is outstanding, and you’ll find this solo break might require a return visit.

Temptation Cancun

Check PricesTemptation Cancun, also adults-only, but a bit more raucous than Secrets The Vine….The recently-remodeled Temptation attracts a young-ish crowd (mostly late-twenties to late-forties, with the occasional younger or older), and features three pools (‘fun’, ‘sports’, and ‘quiet’) all of which allow topless sunbathing (but not full-on nudity!). Very fun, party atmosphere, lots of activities, and a sexy vibe. Temptation Cancun is also on our list of “best all inclusives for topless sunbathing“.

Oh, and YES you can sunbathe topless at one of their two heated pools.
