All-Inclusive Destinations to Add to Your Bucket List

Looking for a touch of indulgence on your next holiday? 

Whether you’re seeking a tropical paradise, a romantic beach retreat or a busy cultural tour, choosing all-inclusive accommodation means that eating and drinking won’t need a thought. With all your meals taken care of, you can get on with planning your next adventures. Around 15% of British tourists caught onto the joys of all-inclusive breaks in 2022.

Your first decision, of course, should be your destination. We’ve handpicked four of the very best global hotspots for all-inclusive holidaymakers below.

• Caribbean Islands: The ultimate tropical getaway

Dreaming of postcard-perfect white sandy beaches, clear turquoise waters and verdant palm trees, gently swaying in a warm breeze? Look no further than the incredible Caribbean Islands, ideally positioned in the Caribbean Sea between North and South America. 

From the natural reefs and beautiful marine life in the Bahamas to the lively atmosphere and warm hospitality of Jamaica, there’s something for everyone in the Caribbean. Star-studded destinations like Barbados attract celebrities from around the world, while the Dominican Republic is great for whale watching. Why not try salsa dancing in Puerto Rico?!

• Southeast Asia: Exotic and affordable adventures

Thanks to amazing tourist attractions, low prices and inspiring scenery, Southeast Asia attracts thousands of younger tourists and solo travellers alike. It’s a popular choice for those going on a gap year for the first time, largely thanks to welcoming communities and bustling nightlife – plus great opportunities in the daytime too.

Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam remain consistently popular for group holidays and solo tours alike. They offer so many opportunities for new and exciting cultural activities, with a level of affordability that’s hard to find in almost any other part of the world. 

• Mediterranean Magic: Sun, sea and history

With quick and easy flights from almost anywhere in the UK, all-inclusive holidays in Europe suit families, couples and solo travellers alike. Destinations including Greece, Spain and Turkey boast some of the best resorts in the world, offering everything from golden sands to renowned historical sites.

The Mediterranean is surprisingly diverse, too. You can choose your holiday destination based on your favourite cuisine, hobbies, or preferred landscapes. And with the bonus of warm, sunny weather from spring through to autumn, you should expect a welcome break from the British climate. 

• African Safari: Luxury and adventure combined

The all-inclusive safari is an ultimate bucket list holiday for many. The sweeping plains of Kenya’s national parks, including Amboseli, a UNESCO World Heritage site spanning more than 150-square miles, offer unique opportunities for close-up wildlife encounters.

While Kenya is arguably the most popular destination for any first-time wildlife tourists, countries like Botswana, Tanzania, Namibia and Rwanda promise a bountiful array of species to spot. Combined with luxurious, off-grid accommodations and generous hospitality, all-inclusive safari breaks make an unforgettable break.

• Balearic Islands: Romantic getaways for two

Looking for the chance to escape with someone special? Spain’s Balearic Islands are as inviting as they are accessible, with a plethora of top-quality all-inclusive hotels to choose from. There are plenty of direct flights taking little more than two hours.

Mallorca is a highlight, offering something for everyone. From ancient, stone-built villages like Pollença, on the northeasterly tip of the island, to bustling port towns like Sóller, you can choose between hubbub and tranquillity. White, sandy beaches and secret coves make every adventure in Mallorca feel special.

Ready to book now? Once you’ve picked your destination, all you need to do is sit back, enjoy the journey, and let your tour provider do the rest. That’s the best part of all-inclusive breaks: the ability to totally switch off and relax.
