Adults Only Holidays
We've all been on holidays before when it's just the two of you hoping for a nice, quiet, relaxing romantic break away and you end up in an apartment or hotel room right next to a bunch of bawling kids whose squawks, let's be honest, fill you with a sense of dread, if not loathing!
That's why its important to ensure that tour operators can offer family holidays the perfect getaway at handpicked resorts with all the best facilities and amenities, and can also offer a similarly bespoke service for adults only luxury holidays, to ensure you the peace and quiet or adventure and excitement that you crave.
We have an array of properties across the globe that cater for adults only, but some of my favourites are highlighted below:
Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and W Retreat & Spa are two perfect Indian ocean hideaways that don't accept children under the age of 12. Offering luxury Maldives holidays on intimate islands, both of these smart and uber stylish resorts come recommended by such prestigious titles as Conde Nast Traveller and also by luxury long haul tour operator Destinology.Secrets Wild Orchid and Secrets St James are brand new sister properties located in Montego Bay in Jamaica, which share not only their restaurants, bars and other facilities, but have a shared policy of being completely child-free. Elegant and modern, Secrets Wild Orchid is a sleek and luxurious beachfront oasis, while Secrets St James is a more traditional, yet equally as decadent all inclusive retreat. Butler service and a range of delicious dining options make this a true cut above so many other Caribbean hideaways.
Shangri-La's Bar Al Jissah Resort & Spa in Muscat is a large luxury resort which actually comprises three hotels. For those looking for an escape from the kids, a stay at the Al Husn hotel here will fit the bill and not only provide you with peace and tranquillity thanks to its over 18s only policy, but has an additional focus excellence of service, with a private beach, butler service and private dining to create an especially romantic retreat for couples.
Travellers to Thailand can discover a paradisiacal escape at Layana Resort & Spa. Located on the beautiful island resort of Koh Lanta, adult guests can explore the surrounding lush rainforest, enjoy an array of gourmet cuisines from around the world or simply relax and unwind in one of 50 luxurious rooms and suites, each of which is elegantly furnished with local Thai influences.
Royal Davui Island is an awe-inspiring adults only retreat in Fiji that gives a real sense of privacy and seclusion, accessed only by plane and water taxi or private helicopter. Catering for no more than 32 guests on the entire island at any given time, staff ensure you are spoilt rotten, with magnificent levels of personal service, stunning surrounding island landscape and a huge diversity of activities available including everything from diving and snorkelling to white water rafting and private beach picnics.
For those looking for something a touch closer to home, the Aegean Suites on the Greek island of Skiathos are a truly marvellous getaway. Outstanding contemporary, elegant styling provides a sophisticated retreat for adults of all ages. Located on a hillside close to Skiathos Town, exterior amenities are close at hand, but for those eager to stay in resort (and let's face it, who wouldn't be?!), a selection of exquisite spa treatments, 24-hour concierge service and a mouth-watering selection of dining options ensure your every need is more than met.
