Can You Enjoy an All-Inclusive Resort Without Drinking?

One of the most common questions we hear from sober travelers is:
 “Will there be anything for me at an all-inclusive if I don’t drink?”

To find out, I spent a few days stone-cold sober at Sandals Curaçao to see what the experience was really like — and whether an all-inclusive resort can still feel relaxing, fun, and indulgent without alcohol.

Was I the Only Person Not Drinking?

A lot of sober and sober-curious travelers worry they’ll be the only ones skipping cocktails. I didn’t find that to be true at all.

During my four-night stay, I didn’t see anyone who appeared heavily intoxicated. Most guests spent their days lounging by the pool, playing golf, or heading out on excursions.

Unlike some resorts that turn into a party by 10 a.m., Sandals Curaçao had a laid-back, upscale vibe. Music played, people mingled, but it never felt like a drinking contest.

Creative Mocktails and Healthy Alternatives

Since I try to live a healthy lifestyle, I didn’t want to spend the week sipping sugary virgin daiquiris. Luckily, the bartenders were amazing at creating creative mocktails that felt special and refreshing — not just juice mixes or soda.

Think fresh herbs, sparkling water, and tropical fruit. There was always plenty of bottled water, coffee, and tea available, too. Staying hydrated and happy was effortless.

Nightlife Without the Hangover

Evenings at Sandals Curaçao were social but calm — the perfect setting if you prefer connection over chaos.

While many guests gathered at the lobby bar, others enjoyed dessert and coffee on the patio, listened to live music, or turned in early after a sunset stroll. I never felt like I was “missing out” by not drinking.

This is not a party resort, and that’s a good thing. It’s ideal for travelers who value connection, wellness, and genuine fun over late-night shots.

Who This Resort Is Perfect For

If you’re:

• Sober or sober-curious
  
  
• Taking a break for Dry January or Sober October
  
  
• Traveling with a mix of drinkers and non-drinkers
  
  
• Or just prefer a relaxing, wellness-focused getaway
  
  

…then Sandals Curaçao is a fantastic choice.
