Important Information to Consider
Ensure You're Securing the Best Rate
Most all-inclusive resorts calculate their pricing based on double occupancy, meaning two guests share a room. Some resorts might offer discounts for single travelers, so it’s wise to verify with the resort before booking to ensure you get the best rate as a solo guest.
Be Aware of Potential Supplements
Certain all-inclusive resorts may impose a single supplement fee. It's important to check with your resort regarding any additional charges for a solo guest occupying a room and what that fee might be.
Review the Resort's Activity Schedule
If your solo getaway aims to connect with others, make the most of the resort's planned activities. Options like daily happy hours, welcome receptions, wellness sessions, and cooking classes offer fantastic chances to mingle with fellow solo travelers and friendly groups.
