Not all vacations are created equally and some are much more children friendly. You should enjoy certain places and things without kids ruining your good times. Adventure and toddlers usually don’t mix, neither do relaxing and parenting.  Take an adult vacation before you have children and you can thank me later.

Maybe you should try and go on a few adventures acting like children before you decide to have children yourself. We advise you take these vacations before you have kids so you can fully enjoy each experience.

 

Napa Valley Wineries

The ultimate adult only vacation destination, Napa Valley is made for middle aged adults.  There are over 250 wineries in Napa Valley and none of them are really kid-friendly. Sipping wine and keeping an eye on hyperactive children don’t usually go together, so maybe you should leave the little ones at home. People go to Napa Valley to enjoy nature, wine and relaxing vibrations. Go on adult vacations without children let you actually unwind and have some naughty fun. Sure vacations with your ids are fun, but come on, who wants kids in Napa?

Paris

Romance and changing diapers usually don’t go hand in hand so why visit the most romantic city in the world with children in tow? Wine, romance and late nights make up a great Paris trip and these are hard activities to do with children. There should be no kids ruining the love on your Parisian adventure. The sites in Paris aren’t the most child friendly wither, what kids want to go to museums and stand in line for hours to go up in the Eiffel Tower? Definitely check out Paris without little ones and fully enjoy the city.  Taking an adult only vacation to Paris is the only way to see the city.

 

Iceland

Iceland is a country full of adventure, intrigue and some dangerous locations, making it the perfect adult only vacation. Hiking an active volcano and scuba diving aren’t your typical child friendly activities. Glaciers may be exciting adventures but not when you are toting a toddler through sharp, jagged ice caves. Enjoy the splendor of Iceland before you have kids or leave them with the in-laws and get some alone time. 

Monte Carlo

Much like Vegas but much classier, Monte Carlo is centered around gambling and nightlife, two things that don’t mix well with little kids. Adults can enjoy the James Bond type resorts and classy evenings on the town. The French Riviera where Monte Carlo sits has long been known as a romantic and glamorous destination so why ruin that vibe with children?

 

Tokyo

Tokyo is a mega metropolis that feels like a utopian future, so why bring kids to ruin that fantasy. Haha, I kid, children are great, but they aren’t perfect for every trip. Tokyo is super crowded and if you have every tried to get kids through a big crowd it can be a nightmare, so avoid that hassle and ditch the kids.  Make your Tokyo trip an adult only destination and you won’t be sorry. 

Dubai

Dubai is the playground for the rich and famous in the Middle East, and it’s not a kid friendly vacation destination. The luxury hotels offer glitz and glamour at the highest end and you know exactly who doesn’t enjoy fancy things? Kids neither enjoy nor respect fancy and fabulous things, so keep the finer things in life away form their dirty little hands. Let your kids enjoy Mickey Mouse and you enjoy the Jewel of the United Arab Emirates.

All-Inclusive Resorts Outside The Caribbean!

  

Published

on





When you think of all-inclusive resorts you automatically think of the Caribbean and Mexico, which makes sense. Most of the all-inclusive resorts are centrally populated in the Caribbean and Mexico, but there are some other regions that offer excellent resort experiences in less than ordinary places.

All-inclusive resorts are great if you want to stay on a budget, be completely pampered and have a low-stress vacation. Why not veer off the beaten path and try one of these less than ordinary resort locations and expand your vacation portfolio.

 

Morocco

When you think of Morocco, you don’t necessarily think of all-inclusive resorts but this area is a hotbed for these luxury resorts.   Check out the incredible deals offered up at resorts in Marrakech and Agadir, some featuring fun activities like water parks. Many of these resorts don’t offer alcohol since they are located in an Islamic country.   You can have plenty of fun without booze, so give the magical country of Morocco a chance.

 

Arizona

Arizona is the destination of dude ranches and wellness retreats, so find your happiness in the desert. Surrounded by sand is the norm for all-inclusive resorts but most of these have an ocean with the sand, not Arizona. The desert makes an incredible backdrop for some of the world’s best dude ranch experiences. Come to Arizona dude ranches to ride horses, hike and enjoy nature while relaxing on a ranch.

Arizona is also famous for its wide variety of wellness resorts that range from spas to yoga retreats. Let your mind and body enjoy a vacation while you spend a week on a wellness retreat.

 

Brazil

Brazil has enough coastline for all the world’s resorts but they keep there’s more spread out. These resorts are very similar to the ones you would find in the Caribbean but these are often more remote. The average guests at these resorts are Brazilian families as it’s harder for foreigners to reach remote locations. Check out the Northeastern region of Bahia for the most spectacular resorts.

 

Tennessee

When you think of luxury all-inclusive resorts, that last place you think of is Tennessee, but this landlocked state has one of the world’s top resorts, the Blackberry Farm. The 4,000-plus acre farm is the ultimate luxurious resort where all the meals are cooked using ingredients from the far and are masterfully prepared by the top shelf chefs. Enjoy horseback riding and hiking in the glorious backwoods of rural Tennessee. Who knew that Tennessee had such class?

 

Texas

Much like Arizona, Texas has plenty of dude ranches and wellness retreats, but they also have some fun ones on the coast. These resorts tend to shy away from the all-you-can-drink party vibes and lend themselves to the tranquil, relaxing vibes instead. You may not find unlimited booze here but you will find peace and quiet, which are often harder to obtain than adult beverages.

 

Explore your world and find where you are happiest, and revisit that place as often as possible. Everyone has his or her own idea of a perfect vacation, just make yours a reality.

Barcelona is an absolutely incredible city and should be on the top of everyone’s travel list. There are breathtaking beaches, delectable dining, and a non-stop nightlife. No matter how you have fun, Barcelona offers it in spades. But where should you stay?

We talked to our worldly staff, and when we brought up that we were writing an article about Barcelona, they’re eyes lit up.They were practically frothing at the mouth and shoving each other out of the way just to chime in with their favorite neighborhoods and why.

After strenuous research, here are some of our absolute favorite neighborhoods to stay when visiting beautiful Barcelona.

 

El Born

El Born is located right in the center of the old city. This makes it very convenient to get around to the many other neighborhoods, so you can walk to the beach or the Gothic Quarter or even the metro stops.

But it’s not just the location that makes El Born the top of our list. This neighborhood is known for its amazing artisan shops and hip restaurants. Prepare to blow up your Instagram if you stay here because there are tons of alleyways covered in graffiti and street art that are perfect for some cool photos so that you can brag to your friends and make them all super jealous.

Oh, also, did we mention the Picasso Museum? Yeah, that Picasso. You can see some of his most famous paintings along with his early work. Now that’s a neighborhood.

 

 

Barceloneta

If beach vibes are totally what you’re feeling, shaka bro, then Barceloneta is for you. You can walk along the beach and see all the different ways the Barcelonians enjoy the sunshine from rollerblading and biking to swimming or just relaxing.

There really isn’t too much to say as to why this neighborhood is great, I mean you’re in the Mediterranean on a beach. Do we really need to give you much more info than that?

 

El Raval

If you’re a Hemingway fan then you’ve probably heard of this neighborhood. In Hemingway’s days it was a pretty rough neighborhood, but not anymore. Now El Raval is delightful for everyone to stay.

You will see more diversity here than in any other neighborhood in Barcelona. People from all over the world seem to flock to this neighborhood when looking for a place to live which creates a very diverse scene.

That means there’s a lot of great food and of course, great bars. But don’t blame us if you find yourself awake at four AM dancing in the streets. You won’t stick out if you’re doing that, by the way, you’ll fit right in.

Poble See

If staying out until the wee hours of the morning isn’t your thing, but eating is your thing then Poble See is for you. This place isn’t known for its nightlife but it is known for its tapas bars.

You might not be too close to major tourist attractions in this district, but you will be close to the metro system which can get you there quickly and efficiently.

One thing is for sure, no matter where you stay, you will love Barcelona.
