Sober Vacationing
The Best All-Inclusive Resorts for People Who Don’t Drink: Where Wellness & Mocktails Shine
Vacations are meant to recharge you — to rest, reconnect, and take care of yourself. But for those who don’t drink alcohol, choosing the right resort can be tricky. Many all-inclusives focus heavily on booze, leaving sober guests with limited options.
The good news? A new wave of resorts is embracing wellness, mindfulness, and creativity — and that includes zero-proof cocktails that are anything but boring. Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or just want to feel great on vacation, here are our top picks for mocktail-loving travelers who want luxury without the liquor.
