Best Places to Go Without Kids
Once you're a parent, going on holiday is never the same again: your once compact cabin bag is now three large suitcases plus a stroller. You deserve some well-needed rest, so here are some of the best places you and your partner can go without the kids!
Las Vegas, USA
The wonderfully vibrant Las Vegas, situated in the Nevada desert, is a playground for grown-ups, where the famous slogan "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" couldn't ring more true! Here you can indulge in all-night parties, a cocktail or two, and gambling along a colourful strip full of swanky bars, casinos, and electrifying street parades and performers.
Las Vegas also has a subtropical climate, so you will be able to enjoy the sun all year round! You need to be at least 21 to get into any bars and clubs, so Las Vegas is the perfect place to relive your early twenties. An unmissable experience!
The Maldives
The honeymoon favourite of many newly-weds and couples alike, the Maldives is a secluded tropical paradise with breathtaking surroundings. A majority of Maldivian resorts don't allow children, so you're guaranteed to be child-free throughout your stay! Here you can unwind as you swim in warm crystal-clear waters, have a candlelit dinner under the stars, stroll along the pure white sands, and eat and drink to your heart's content. For a unique experience, stay in a water villa and watch the sea life swim around you while catching stunning sunrises and sunsets.
Hamilton Island, Queensland, Australia
In the heart of the charming Whitsunday Islands, Hamilton Island is set in the Great Barrier Reef and home to one of Australia's most beautiful beaches - Whitehaven Beach. Enjoy couple activities like snorkeling with turtles over the spectacular tropical seabed, bushwalking, and exploring hidden coves and picnic spots. You can also hire a yacht and sail around the Whitsundays, or take part in paddleboarding. Child-free bliss!
Napa Valley, California, USA
Where better to celebrate being child-free than in the home of the world's greatest vineyards? Take a wine tour you'd never forget in a beautiful hot air balloon. Experience the impressive Napa Valley from the open Californian air with a glass of the good stuff in hand. If you prefer a tour on land, embark on a picturesque horseback ride among the scenic vineyards. Napa Valley's lush green foothills are also perfect for playing golf, with a selection of courses set in the stunning countryside.
Mykonos, Greece
Beautiful both during the day and at night, Mykonos boasts a thriving nightlife. Dance the night away and watch the sunrise after your night out. Forget about the family hatchback and explore the whitewashed villas of the island via a nippy scooter. Experience the meandering Greek roads and drive past the famous Mykonos windmills. Or, for a touch of Italy in Greece, visit Little Venice, a lively part of Mykonos that overlooks the azure waters. This spot is especially romantic at sunset, setting the perfect ambience for an intimate date night.
