How do you appease both the beach bum and the avid explorer? An all-inclusive resort in a fascinating destination can pacify all types of travelers. Plus, it gives your more independent boomer travelers the autonomy to choose whether they would like to relax or seek out a memorable adventure.
These all-inclusive resorts can function much like a cruise where it’s up to the passengers what to do with their day, yet they enjoy all the other social benefits of traveling with a group. These all-inclusive resort destinations for groups range from the traditional beach locales to more exotic areas that might be on your group members’ bucket list.
1.) Costa Rica
Of course Costa Rica has the pristine beaches that could appear on any screensaver, but where the country really shines is in its wildlife. A walk on the beach in Costa Rica doesn’t just mean a mob of tourists, but it means encounters with monkeys, iguanas, hummingbirds and other rare creatures. Many of the country’s all-inclusive resorts lie near a national park or rain forest perfect for unforgettable excursions.
2.) Spain
This destination has relatively recently begun offering all-inclusive resort experiences at some of its sunny locations in Ibiza, Menorca, Majorca, the Canary Islands, Lanzarote and Tenerife. Medieval history, world-renown art and spectacular scenery all lies within a day’s ride from any of these cities.
3.) Bali
Bali gives visitors a taste of Southeast Asia combined with luxurious resorts, impeccable beaches and intriguing culture. It’s a tropical holiday, as well as an authentic Indonesian experience.
4.) Mexico
A cheaper alternative to some of the further afield all-inclusive destinations awaits in Mexico. The country’s top-quality, all-inclusive resorts line the coast at Riviera Maya, Playacar and Cozumel. Guests can also find cultural excursions, such as a trip to the Chichen Itza Mayan ruins, alongside with the typical beach vacation.
5.) Greece
Greece has famously delicious cuisine, weather, beaches, history and culture. They also offer top-class resorts from where guests can explore some of the world’s best islands by foot, such as Kos, Corfu, Crete and Rhodes.
