8 Best Vacation Spots For Single Men

When you’re a single guy looking for a place to relax and unwind, choosing the perfect vacation spot is a big deal. Many of us only have the time and budget for one vacation a year, so it’s vital to choose wisely. Here are the eight best vacation spots for men who are unattached and traveling solo.

Rio de Janeiro

If you want an international adventure full of amazing beaches, hot dance clubs, and all-around wild environment, Rio de Janeiro should be on your list. Where else can you listen to authentic samba, stroll along the Copacabana coastline and see one of the New Seven Wonders of the World? With a yearly Carnival celebration, plenty of beach sports and amazing locals, Rio has earned its reputation as Brazil’s party capital.

Club Med Turkoise

Some single dudes avoid all-inclusive resorts when planning their vacations because they don’t want to be mobbed by families with screaming kids. We feel your pain, but want to point out that an adults-only all-inclusive gives you all the benefits with none of the drawbacks.

Consider Club Med Turkoise, the only Club Med that is sans kids and has the option to pack your vacay with adventures or simple relaxation with a cold drink in a beautiful environment. The best part? You pay for your vacation, then leave your wallet locked up in your hotel safe as you enjoy all the amenities at no extra charge.

Miami

If staying state-side is your goal, you can still get a tropical vibe and plenty of nightlife if you book a trip to Miami. This vacation mecca has it all: gorgeous people, plenty of beaches, every cuisine you could ask for and a world-famous nightlife.

You can stroll through one of the city’s 800 parks, play a round of golf on a huge variety of courses or submerge yourself in Cuban culture in Little Havana. Whether you stay in South Beach or try out one of the growing neighborhoods (we suggest the vibrant arts district Wynwood), you’ll never get bored in The Magic City.

Portland

Before you scoff at visiting Oregon for your bro-cation, did you know that Portland is known for a phenomenon called bikini barista stands? Not only that, but you can sample microbrews a-plenty (there are 70 breweries in Portland alone), scarf a Bacon Maple Donut Bar, try out trucker vegan food and plenty of other options at the hundreds of food carts, and dance it all off in one of the city’s many clubs. This is also the perfect destination for nature-lovers and fitness enthusiasts as it’s bike-friendly and has plenty of places for hikes or just city strolls.

Las Vegas

Must we even list the reasons why Vegas is the perfect destination for the single man? This city truly has it all. World-renowned cuisine, every type of gambling you can image, plenty of clubs and bars, and the most over-the-top accommodations on the planet. Whether you like to roll the dice, sip a martini and people-watch, or dance in the clubs, Las Vegas will never let you down.

Holland American Koningsdam Cruise

Never thought of cruising solo? The Holland American Koningsdam cruise ship may change your mind. This cruise line is known for making solo cruisers top priority, and this ship – which has itineraries including the Caribbean, Northern Europe and Scandinavia – has a roommate-matching service, the Single Partners Program – or, if you prefer to cruise with just the pleasure of your own company, 12 solo cabins to choose from. When you’re ready to book the excursion of your dreams, this cruise will be a vacation you’ll never forget.

Scottsdale, Arizona

Another excellent option for those who don’t want to get their passports, Scottsdale, Arizona has the high temps, cool green golf courses and awesome activities like horseback riding and Hummer tours that every guy desires. Scottsdale has plenty of natural beauty paired with top-notch restaurants (charred octopus topped with bacon candy, anyone?), making it an all-around excellent destination. Whether you’re attracted to hip dude ranches or swanky country clubs, Scottsdale has an itinerary for every taste.

Vail, Colorado

Ready for a snow bunny paradise? Vail is the home not only of plenty of slopes, but you can go white water rafting, fly fishing, take a helicopter tour or stay at the Four Seasons with a Brew and Renew package (complete with Amber Ale Foot Soak). Now that’s just about as manly as a spa treatment gets. Whether you go during the packed ski season or you opt for the less frantic (and more wallet-friendly) off-season, Vail is a luxurious destination that is perfect for all your needs.

There’s no need for a significant other when you book a trip to one of the above eight locations. You’ll have an awesome time when you visit one of these top vacation spots for single men.
