Top-Ranked: 3 Florida Adults-Only All-Inclusive Resorts Best In US

By Kayla Morgan June 1st

When you don’t have to stress about budgeting for dinners and activities, it’s so much easier to just kick back and enjoy the whole experience of a getaway. And if you’re looking for a super romantic or laid-back stay, an adults-only all-inclusive resort may be your best bet.

According to a survey commissioned by Wyndham and conducted by One Poll in 2022, 75% of travelers believe the best way to travel is to book an all-inclusive trip. The study also highlights that 77% of travelers think that an all-inclusive vacation is the least stressful way to travel. 44% of travelers said that all-inclusive packages are the number one feature they look for when planning a getaway. It’s like having all your bases covered. So you can relax and enjoy every moment without any worries.

Recently, Best Life, a lifestyle site, compiled a list of the best adults-only all-inclusive resorts in the U.S. They considered accommodations, location of resorts, packages, and other factors to gather their list of the best.

Florida had three of the best adult-only all-inclusive resorts. A resort in Key Largo secured the number one spot. Bungalows Key Largo is located in the heart of the Florida Keys. It’s a 21+ resort with 135 private waterfront and garden bungalows. “The Bungalows is the only true all-inclusive resort in the U.S. that caters exclusively to adults. It offers luxury bungalows with private outdoor tubs, a private beach, watersports, and gourmet dining options,” Michelle Osborn, owner and travel consultant at Outta Here Travels, told Best Life.

Another Florida resort scoring a spot on the list is Henderson Park Inn in Destin. Henderson Park Inn came in at number four. This adults-only resort is set on a mile-long stretch of beach with 37 rooms. Meanwhile, Little Palm Island Resort and Spa in Little Torch ranked number 7. It’s worth mentioning that it’s only accessible by seaplane or private boat.

Take a look at the complete list of the best adults-only all-inclusive resorts in the U.S. here.

10 Best Amusement Parks in America

America doesn’t lack for having the best amusement parks. Whether you’re a daredevil and want to ride the tallest, scariest roller coasters in the world or prefer just eating park food, a day at the park can be a super fun experience.

One great thing about theme parks is that you can usually find one within driving distance. This makes amusement parks a reasonable choice for a family vacation or weekend giveaway, especially if money is an issue. Amusement parks are also great for capturing memories for kids. When I was a child, my family took me to several parks in Michigan, California, Ohio and Florida, so I have great memories from those trips.

The best theme parks also have convenient lodging nearby, making the trip truly seamless. That’s not to mention the awesome water parks that are often attached to today’s theme parks. Also, even though theme parks are meant for kids, it’s obvious that adults can have just as much fun at them, too.

Read on for our list of the 10 best amusement parks in America, from Cedar Point to Hersheypark. All of these are famous for their attractions, food and more. What’s your favorite? Reach out to us on social media and let us know.

  • 10. Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

    Dollywood is a favorite that’s located in the Great Smokey Mountain area. Of course, it’s named after the one and only Dolly Parton. If you’re a country music fan, this is a must-see stop. Even if you aren’t a huge country music listener, it’s a great, traditional amusement park.

  • 8. Legoland, Carlsbad, California

    Legoland is simply legendary. Whoever had the idea to make an entire amusement park dedicated to Legos is a genius. The amusement park offers fun rides, live entertainment and more. You’ll find a Legoland Water Park, too.

  • 7. Busch Gardens, Williamsburg, Virginia

    Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia, is one of those parks that you just hear about a lot. I feel like I’ve been hearing about it since I was a little kid, but I’ve never been there. Busch Gardens is known for being extremely beautiful and scenic, which is rare for an amusement park.

  • 6. Knott's Berry Farm, Buena Park, California

    Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California, is another spot that I’ve had the pleasure of visiting. When I was a kid, my family took me to California to see my aunt, and we went to not only Disneyland but also Knott’s Berry Farm. The amusement park has more than 165 rides, attractions and more. They also have fun holiday and Halloween events.

Adrenaline junkies can test their limits on more than a dozen scream-inducing rides.

  • 5. Six Flags Magic Mountain, Valencia, California (and in many other states)

    Six Flags Magic Mountain is another huge name when it comes to parks. The spot, located in Valencia, California, is known for its amazing coasters. What’s cool is that the park offers a mix of scary-type coasters for the big kids (and adults) and tame coasters for the kids (and wimpy adults, like me). Other Six Flags parks also belong here, too, as the chain has lots of locations across America.

  • 4: Disney California Adventure Park, Anaheim, California

    If you want that Disney experience but live on the West Coast, then you’re much closer to Disney California Adventure Park, aka “Disneyland,” than you are to Disney World. I’ve actually been to both parks, since my aunt lives near Disneyland, and I went as a kid. The park is super fun for those of any age, and it really gives you that Disney movie experience, but in a park. The park has been updated over the years, but it’s more classic than Disney World.

    If you’re in the Pennsylvania area, then you absolutely have to go to Hersheypark. The park, which is owned by Hershey Entertainment & Resorts, helps to keep Milton S. Hershey’s legacy alive.

  • 2. Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom, Orlando, Florida

    There is something simply classic about Walt Disney World. It should be every kid’s right of passage to go here. I’m fortunate that my parents took me to Disney World twice when I was little. I loved meeting my favorite princesses, but there is plenty to do for adults at the park, too.

  • 1. Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

    Cedar Point is legendary in the Midwest. The park is considered the “Roller Coaster Capital of the World,” since it has so many fantastic coasters to ride. If you’re looking for major thrills, plus stuff to do for the family, Cedar Point is a great spot. Plus, it’s not as pricey as some of the major parks.
