What to Expect at Adults-Only Hotels
The clue's in the name: adults-only means adults only. Most hotels set the bar at 18+ (some at 16+ if they're feeling generous, a few bougie (or american) places at 21+). What that actually means: no kids. Zero. Nada. Not a single under-ager in sight. Which translates to no inflatable unicorns hogging the pool, no 6am wake-up calls from excited five-year-olds, and absolutely no chicken nuggets at the buffet. Just peace, quiet, and the occasional snore from someone who's had one mojito too many.
Here's what you actually get at an adults-only hotel: restaurants where the menu doesn't include "plain pasta with butter", bars that stock the good stuff (not just whatever's cheapest), and spa facilities where you can actually hear yourself think. The pool? Splash-free and serene. The atmosphere? Civilised enough that you can read a book without getting whacked by a rogue beach ball. No kids' clubs. No mini discos. No foam parties led by someone in a giant inflatable costume. Just proper grown-up entertainment – think live music, DJ sessions, wine tasting, and sunset cocktails that aren't interrupted by someone asking where the nearest ice cream machine is.
Activities lean toward things you'd actually want to do: cocktail-making classes rather than "let's build a sandcastle" competitions, sunset yoga rather than water balloon fights, cooking demonstrations featuring actual ingredients (not fish fingers). Many adults-only hotels offer all-inclusive packages that feel properly sophisticated – think premium spirits at the bar, multiple dining venues serving gourmet food, and late breakfasts because nobody's dictated by nap schedules. Speaking of breakfast: proper lie-ins. No obligation to be up and dressed by 8am. No queue of families loading up on cereal before the waterpark opens. Just you, a leisurely brunch, and the knowledge that the only schedule you're following is your own.
The Balearics: Where Sophistication Meets Sunshine
The Balearics have absolutely nailed the adults-only game. Majorca, Ibiza, and Menorca deliver that proper Mediterranean sophistication without the inflatable unicorns hogging the pool.
Majorca offers the full range, from chi-chi boutique stays in Palma to brilliant all-inclusive options along the east coast. Puerto Pollensa gives you beachfront elegance with mountain backdrops, while Palma Nova and Cala Millor serve up Blue Flag beaches and grown-up pool bars. Alcudia's bay offers calm waters perfect for proper relaxation, and the island's southwest corner around Santa Ponsa delivers stunning sunset views from your adults-only hotel terrace.
Ibiza does the whole 'sophisticated party spot' thing brilliantly (yes, you can party without stepping in someone's sick at 3am). Es Cana gives you beachfront tranquility just 120 metres from the sand, Santa Eulalia offers boutique vibes with its marina-front restaurants, and San Antonio Bay balances classic Ibiza energy with grown-up hotel facilities. Want to be walking distance to Ushuaïa? Playa d'en Bossa puts you right there, while Ibiza Town hotels give you rooftop pools and UNESCO World Heritage culture on your doorstep.
Menorca plays the quieter sibling card perfectly – boutique hotels, hidden coves, and that calm Mediterranean pace that makes you forget your inbox exists. Cala Galdana's horseshoe bay is often called the queen of Menorcan beaches, while Ciutadella's medieval charm offers marina-front sophistication without the crowds.
The beauty here? You're guaranteed sunshine, it's only 2-3 hours from the UK and you get variety from party to total zen without leaving the archipelago.
The Canary Islands: Year-Round Adults-Only Bliss
The Canaries are the ultimate winter sun escape, and the adults-only hotels here understand that sunshine, without screaming children, is what dreams are made of. 20-28°C year-round, no time difference, and enough variety to keep things interesting.
Tenerife dominates for adults-only options. Playa de las Américas and Costa Adeje have the highest concentration of grown-up hotels, many with heated pools, wellness centres, and rooftop terraces where you can actually hear the waves. Puerto de la Cruz up north offers volcanic black sand beaches, botanical gardens, and the famous Lago Martiánez seawater pool complex – proper Canarian sophistication. Los Cristianos gives you that sweet spot between affordability and quality, with brilliant harbour-front restaurants minus the Veronica's Strip chaos.
Gran Canaria brings the party atmosphere – Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas have adults-only properties overlooking those famous dunes, with LGBTQ+-friendly vibes, proper pool bars, and that "eternal spring" weather the island's known for. Puerto Rico's horseshoe bay offers calmer waters and brilliant harbour views, while the south coast generally delivers more reliable sunshine than a British sunbed.
Lanzarote does sophistication with its volcanic landscapes and César Manrique-designed architecture. Playa Blanca gives you marina-front elegance and ferry access to Fuerteventura, while Puerto del Carmen offers that longer promenade for evening strolls between beach bars.
Fuerteventura is the wind-down island – endless beaches, that proper get-away-from-it-all feeling, and hotels in Corralejo and Caleta de Fuste with direct beachfront access and absolutely zero kids' club noise pollution.
The massive advantage? Only 3-4 hours from the UK, no jet lag to ruin your first day, and weather reliable enough to book six months ahead without sweating it. What's not to love?
Greece: Ancient History Meets Modern Relaxation
Greece brings proper sunshine, incredible food, and adults-only hotels that understand the assignment. The islands here do sophisticated relaxation brilliantly – think breakfast overlooking the Aegean, afternoon pool sessions with strong cocktails, evening tavernas with fresh seafood.
Rhodes is the absolute big hitter for adults-only properties. The island's packed with beachfront hotels and boutique 5-stars, from Faliraki's bay-front all-inclusives' to Lindos' whitewashed village charm. Kiotari down south offers that proper 5-star sophistication with swim-up suites and spa facilities, while Ixia's western coast gets you closer to Rhodes Town's medieval walls and harbour restaurants.
Crete delivers dramatic landscapes and brilliant variety. Hersonissos offers lively resort energy minus the screaming kids, Rethymnon gives you that postcard-perfect Venetian harbour with boutique stays, and Chania's old town provides cobbled streets and waterfront dining that'll make you question why you ever eat at chain restaurants. The wellness angle works brilliantly here – spa treatments, yoga sessions overlooking olive groves, that Mediterranean diet everyone bangs on about.
Other islands worth considering: Kos for long sandy beaches and strong all-inclusive options, Corfu for that Ionian coast greenery, and Zante where you can find quieter stretches away from the 18-30s crowd (they're all in Laganas, you're not).
The Greek adults-only sweet spot? It's that relaxed sophistication – proper tavernas serving fresh seafood you watched them catch, pool bars with cocktails that don't taste like pure sugar, historical sites nearby if you fancy a culture day, and beaches that actually look like the photos. Plus the locals are genuinely lovely, which makes a difference when you're on your third ouzo.
FAQs
Our Top Tip!
Make sure to check out the reviews for your chosen hotel before you book. Now, this may sound pretty obvious (and it kind of is) but checking out the kind of people that stay at that hotel can really help to make your decision with an Adult Only hotel. Whilst many hotels will list facilities, some might not state if they are popular with an older crowd/lively party crowd/naturists. And believe us, they are very different vibes!
