The Ultimate Adults-Only Getaways

While adulthood can often feel more burdensome than beneficial, it truly shines when embarking on holidays designed exclusively for grown-ups. It’s why we’ve collected our most serene hotels where stunning design and scenery come together with slow indulgent meals perfectly paired with tipples savored over an evening, spa rituals that pamper the body and the soul, and days that stretch languorously set to your pace.

MYKONOS, GREECE
Myconian O is a quiet luxurious oasis on the island’s highly desirable Ornos Bay area. Relax by the Oasis pool, shaded by palm trees and outfitted with plush sunbeds, enjoying complimentary treats all day. As the sun sets, this area morphs into an alfresco nightspot featuring live music and glittering views. The hotel has a modern, glitzy vibe, highlighted by dynamic art and design elements, such as the striking topless sculpture towering in the restaurant. The hotel boasts superb dining from morning till night, offering poolside fare at the O Bar and innovative dishes at O Restaurant. Here, exceptionally fresh seafood and local produce are expertly paired with international wines and select local vintages.

PALMAR BELLE MARE, MAURITIUS
A joyous riot of colors and prints that instantly puts you in a feel-good mood, SALT of Palmar is an adults-only dream with powder-soft sand beaches and mesmerizing shades of blue from Palmar lagoon just steps from the hotel. Taking inspiration from its location, the hotel spa harnesses the healing power of salt in its treatments, while slow sports outdoors and a mindful meditation app encourage a holistic approach to well-being. The three bars onsite offer local twists on cocktails such as “No Smoke without Fire,” inspired by the burning sugar cane fields during harvest, or fiery alternatives with red chilies and tamarind. At The Good Kitchen, locally rooted, globally inspired cuisine celebrates the beauty and seasonality of nature.

SINGAPORE
The Warehouse Hotel stands as a unique heritage gem in the bustling Robertson Quay area, blending its industrial chic design with a nod to its colorful history as a secret society hotspot and illegal distillery. This past is cleverly echoed in the lobby’s “Objects Of Vice” installation—a collaboration between Supermama and Gabriel Tan featuring vintage pocket knives, lighters, and matchstick holders. Positioned ideally along the river, the hotel offers a prime spot to observe the ebb and flow of daily life, best viewed from the rooftop infinity pool—a striking glass cantilevered structure, resembling a melting ice block. Inside, Po restaurant by chef Willin Low, offers a modern-Singaporean twist on traditional recipes, creating a nostalgic yet upscale dining experience. The hotel bar enhances the experience with 10 signature cocktails, ranging from the pandan-infused Singapore Sazerac to the B. B. King, a decadent blend of banana whisky and smoked maple syrup.

SAINT LUCIA, CARIBBEAN
Nestled among swaying palms with breathtaking views of Saint Lucia’s iconic Petit Piton, the adults-only Rabot Hotel offers just 25 luxurious eco-lodges for an intimate and serene escape on one of the Caribbean’s most lush islands. Adding to its allure, the hotel sits on a 140-acre working cocoa farm, providing guests with a unique, hands-on chocolate experience.
