How to Travel Child-Free
Curator’s statement

Travel has always been about more than just getting away for me—it’s about finding spaces where calm, connection, and joy come naturally. That’s why adults-only cruises like Virgin Voyages and Viking Cruises feel so transformative, and why resorts such as Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay, Breathless Cancun Soul Resort & Spa, and Unico 20°87° Riviera Maya stand out: They’re built for travelers to truly unwind. Unique properties like Hotel Yellowstone, Hotel Greystone, and The Colony Palms Hotel and Bungalows add their own sense of place and style, reminding me that travel can be both deeply restorative and fun. Each of these experiences speaks to my passion for childfree escapes that prioritize peace, great food, and memorable adventures.

What makes this collection of suppliers so exciting is the way each offers a unique lens on what childfree, adult-focused travel can look like. From the oceans to the mountains, these properties and cruise lines have one thing in common: They’re designed for travelers who want to relax, recharge, and reconnect without distraction. Whether you’re sailing with Virgin Voyages, soaking in the energy of Breathless Cancun, or enjoying the quiet elegance of Hotel Yellowstone, every detail feels intentional.

On the water, Virgin Voyages and Viking Cruises stand apart for how they redefine cruising. Virgin leans playful and modern—think elevated dining, adults-only pool decks, and vibrant nightlife perfect for couples or friends traveling together. Viking, on the other hand, delivers cultural enrichment with refined itineraries, immersive excursions, and a calm onboard atmosphere that attracts curious travelers who want to learn as they explore. Both lines ensure that “no kids allowed” translates to more peace and freedom of choice.

On land, the range of resorts and hotels highlights how childfree properties can meet different traveler needs. Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay, Breathless Cancun Soul Resort & Spa, and Unico 20°87° Riviera Maya all thrive on all-inclusive ease, with gourmet dining, lively entertainment, and the kind of amenities that allow guests to drop their bags and let go of stress. These properties are perfect for couples, groups, or solo travelers who want a lively yet curated escape with luxury at the forefront.

For those who prefer boutique or destination-driven stays, Hotel Yellowstone, Hotel Greystone, and The Colony Palms Hotel and Bungalows add a personal, intimate flair. Hotel Yellowstone brings guests right into the heart of Wyoming’s rugged beauty, offering luxury that complements the natural wonder. Hotel Greystone and The Colony Palms lean chic and stylish, great for travelers who appreciate design, wellness touches, and a strong sense of place. Together, these suppliers show that childfree travel isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s a spectrum of experiences, from lively to laid-back, all anchored in the freedom of traveling without kids.

Need to know

  • Book early: Adults-only properties are in demand and often sell out quickly.

  • Look beyond the label: Some “adults-preferred” places still allow kids—always double-check.

  • Think about vibe: Some resorts lean romantic and quiet, others are party-forward—pick what feels like a true escape for you.
