Blackberry Farm, Tennessee

People may not think of Tennessee as a typical spot for an all-inclusive vacation, but Blackberry Farm is exceptional. Nestled in the gorgeous Tennessee landscape, Blackberry Farm is a key destination for foodies that attracts some of America's top chefs and where the farm-to-table cuisine is included in the price. Outdoor activities like fly-fishing and horseback riding on this working farm are balanced with luxurious accomodations.

Bungalows Key Largo, Florida

Looking for a lavish getaway? Located at the top of the Florida Keys, Bungalows Key Largo offers an intimate, everything-included holiday. The resort is the only all-inclusive, ages 21 and up resort in Florida, and it comes with a lot of perks. Unwind in one of the property’s 135 private bungalows that come with a private verandah with waterfront or garden views. Guest will also feel at ease in the living spaces that are decorated in calming shades of brown, taupe, and gray. The immaculate grounds of the 12-acre resort wind around a Zen Garden Spa, the Sunset Pool, and the Fitness Tiki Hut, a unique outdoor workout area. Vacationing at the Bungalows includes all meals, alcohol and a selection of water sports and fitness activities. Great for honeymoons, babymoons or a romantic getaway, Bungalows has three unique restaurants on-site including Bogie & Bacall, the multicourse restaurant with customized wine pairings, offered to guests staying four nights or longer.

The Ranch at Rock Creek, Montana

The Ranch at Rock Creek in Montana was a working cattle ranch until the early-1990s when it was transformed into a luxury all-inclusive dude ranch. Go glamping at the Ranch at Rock Creek. Ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, this ranch provides guests with the option to stay in a luxe tent, a canvas cabin, a private log home or 1 of 9 rooms at the Granite Lodge. All rates include the regionally inspired meals and drinks served in the lodge’s dining room, the Blue Canteen and the Silver Dollar Saloon.

You’ll need sustenance to participate in the wide array of activities available at the ranch, such as mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, fly-fishing and clay shooting. “This is my kind of all-inclusive getaway,” says Kwin Mosby, managing producer for TravelChannel.com. “After a long day outdoors, I’d recommend a customized massage, body treatment or facial in the Granite Spa.”

Red Mountain Resort, Utah

Bright red rocks blend perfectly into the early-morning sky as you awake in the beauty of St. George, Utah. Red Mountain Resort is the perfect place to relax and renew your spirit, offering guests luxurious spa treatments, weekend wellness retreats, outdoor excursions such as canyoneering, and much more. This resort has something for everyone — from hiking in state and national parks such as Snow Canyon State Park to a relaxing Zen yoga retreat or a visit to a Navajo reservation.

Miraval, Austin

When it comes to healthy getaways, there are plenty of destinations from which to choose, but few can hold a candle to Miraval, outside Austin. Perched atop one of the hills in Texas Hill Country, the resort offers guests a mostly-inclusive experience focused on wellness.

Mohonk Mountain House, New York

Mohonk Mountain House is celebrating a century and a half of hospitality (including visits from five US Presidents) this year, and upstate New York’s storied Victorian spa resort is growing lovelier all the time. Guests can glide across Mohonk’s award-winning skating rink (then warm themselves at its 39-foot-tall stone fireplace), follow more than 30 miles of groomed cross-country ski trails, explore the Shawangunk Ridge on snowshoes and enjoy panoramic views from the cathedral-ceilinged Main Dining Room, which boasts woodwork that dates back to 1893.

Vista Verde Guest Ranch, Colorado

Nestled in Colorado’s upper Elk River Valley, Vista Verde offers winter adventurers and a gourmet taste of the frontier. Guests can venture out to nearby Steamboat Springs for downhill skiing and shopping, but the luxury ranch itself presents so many cold-weather activities — from horseback and sleigh rides to cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, fat-tire biking and even yoga ("Snoga? Yes, it’s a real thing!") — that it’s hard to imagine forgoing them for a field trip (or missing TVs or phones, which are quite intentionally omitted from cabins and lodge rooms).

Triple Creek Ranch, Montana

Triple Creek Ranch bills itself as "A Montana Hideaway," and it merits the moniker. Guests have the option of cozying up in detached cabins and suites near the property’s Main Lodge, or of laying claim to luxurious ranch homes that feel like private vacation properties. They also have unlimited access to award-winning in-room gourmet dining and an array of activities such as ice fishing (with hot chocolate and cider, of course), Alpine and Nordic skiing, wintery trail riding and even skijoring (a cross between snow skiing and water skiing, where a skier is drawn along a trail by mounted horses).

Travaasa Hana, Hawaii

Perched like a tropical bird above Hana Bay on Maui’s easternmost shore, Travaasa Hana prides itself on being “the first resort on the island to greet the rising sun.” The stunning property is popular with locals and far-flung visitors alike: it claimed Hawai’i Magazine’s Best of Maui Reader’s Choice Award this year as well as a 2018 Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor. Its Total Travaasa plan includes lodging, three daily meals and unlimited snacks, access to experiential activities (like bamboo pole fishing, outrigger canoe excursions and Hawaiian spear throwing) and a daily resort credit toward luxe spa treatments and private lessons.

Golden Door, California

Celebrity-favorite Golden Door in San Marcos, California is the epitome of spa retreats, and while a week here runs about $10,000, it does provide a personalized experience. Unlike other spa retreats that offer pampering and wellness activities, the Golden Door experience is described as transformative. The journey begins before you arrive with a wellness assessment, which helps to create your customized itinerary. A sample day might involve a sunrise hike followed by breakfast awaiting you in your room, along with your daily itinerary detailing the day’s fitness classes (there are more than 40 options, including personal training sessions if you wish) and spa treatments (five skincare treatments, two herbal wraps and a mani/pedi are among the spa services included in the price). In this all-inclusive environment practically everything is provided for you, since you’ll even find the workout clothes you’ll need for the day in the closet. Just when it seems like it can’t get any better, it does with your massage therapist waiting to deliver your daily, in-room massage. Consider Golden Door the ultimate gift to yourself.

The Lodge at Woodloch, Pennsylvania

At The Lodge at Woodloch in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, guests are encouraged to connect with nature. Guided walks through the 500 wooded acres at The Lodge, provide opportunities for deep reflection and contemplation in nature. Guest can further the experience with a walk around the meditation labyrinth and a detoxifying deep forest body treatment, which incorporates local plants and herbs, like dandelion and birchwood sticks. At the end of a stay, The Lodge at Woodloch provides guests with instructions to help them reflect and interact with nature, as well as express gratitude in a natural setting, closer to their homes.

Twin Farms, Vermont

In Central Vermont, all-inclusive (and adults-only) Twin Farms offers multiple accommodation styles across 300 acres of verdant forest, rolling farmland and wildflower meadows.

The Lodge on Little St. Simons, Georgia

The least populated of the Golden Isles is the privately owned Little St. Simons Island. Reachable only by boat—and only then if you have a reservation—the 10,000-acre island is virtually undeveloped, save the 6 cottages that form the Lodge, a modest compound that houses no more than 32 overnight guests. Little St. Simons was a family’s private retreat from 1908 until 1979. Today, the island is revered as a model for conservation. Naturalist-led excursions by foot, bike, boat, kayak or canoe treat visitors to abundant populations of rare and threatened wildlife and the serenity of fully intact natural habitats. Thanks to the island’s owners, Little St. Simons will be preserved for generations to come; in 2015, they donated a conservation easement to The Nature Conservancy on the entire island.

Mohonk Mountain House, New York

Situated atop the Shawangunk in upstate New York, Mohonk Mountain House is more of a village than a mere lodge. The property features a golf course, tennis courts, carriage rides, an ice-skating rink, trail rides, rock-climbing, fishing, boating, an abundance of snow sports, as well as swanky lodging. Amenities range based on room choice. Some rooms may include balconies, fireplaces, four-poster canopy beds and sweeping vistas. Rates for all accommodation include three meals daily in one of three dining rooms, and an afternoon tea-and-cookies spread. On top of the various other offerings, Mohonk houses a world-class spa, with 16 treatment rooms, heated indoor and outdoor pools, a solarium and a fitness center with an abundance of classes on the schedule.

Tyler Place Family Resort, Vermont

The wholesome, outdoorsy and family-friendly Tyler Place Family Resort is an all-inclusive resort that features many activities to keep both parents and children occupied including water skiing, fishing and sailing.

Henderson Park Inn, Florida

At times Destin's beautiful coastline can feel overrun with high-rise condominiums. Enter Henderson Park Inn. This charming inn grants visitors comfortable, high-end lodging with character and an unbeatable beachfront location adjacent to the natural beauty of Henderson Beach State Park. Destin's only beachfront bed and breakfast has a distinct architectural style compared to the pastel properties of Destin, with a green mansard roof, wooden shingles and rich mahogany undertones and furnishings. Spacious guest rooms offer terraces overlooking the beach, and some include romantic fireplaces and whirlpool tubs. Some of the property's exceptional perks include wine, fresh grapes and flowers upon arrival, full breakfast and lunch, and beach service including towels and chairs. Henderson Park even woos guests with afternoon lemonade and cookies, and a complimentary sunset happy hour. Roll from happy hour to dinner at the Inn's Beach Walk Cafe, a fine-dining restaurant where the only thing better than beachfront views are tasty menu items like smoked duck salad, New Zealand venison and grilled local grouper.
