Choice, quality and extraordinary experiences are the bedrock of any all-inclusive hotel or resort experience. The ALL Inclusive Collection aims to take the concept to the next level, offering guests whatever they want, whenever they want, in some of the most spectacular destinations in the world.
Developed by all-inclusive pioneer Rixos Hotels, the collection of premium and luxury resorts features 38 properties in eight locations with curated experiences and dining on tap, no matter your age or interests. Three of the newest members of this ever-expanding family bring the AIC concept to new locations, with must-visit properties in Bodrum, Andalucía and Montenegro.
FREEDOM TO CHOOSE
Ushering in a new chapter of adults-only all-inclusive on the Bodrum Peninsula, Hyde Bodrum presents a fun, boho take on hospitality. Infused with a carefree festival spirit, the 215-key resort encourages guests to lose themselves in the moment through high-quality, curated entertainment, dining, cultural and sports experiences. Think rotating pop-ups, weekly markets or live music performances that amplify pleasure and encourage exploration.
There are no rules to the perfect staycation as travellers dance to their own beat, whether they are soaking up the sun at the pool, partying at the high-energy Hyde Beach Club or creating new connections in the lobby lounge. Make sure to embrace the local surroundings as Bodrum Castle and Bodrum Museum of Underwater Archaeology are only a short drive away, as is Karnas Vineyards, a boutique winery where visitors can dine and sample Turkish wines. What you choose to do at this one-of-a-kind hotel perched between the Aegean and Bodrum’s stunning national parks is entirely up to you.
A REDEFINED DESTINATION
Created by merging four former private estates and a newly built polo field, SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort is a self-contained Andalusian village and lifestyle resort. Today the elegant enclave overlooking the iridescent waters of the Mediterranean has become a one-stop destination for those seeking fashion, design and gastronomy. Gourmands can feast upon the culinary artistry of traditional Andalusian dishes accompanied by more than 40 signature cocktails at venues including IXO Tapas & Bar, Society Club House, Marxa Chiringuito and Cortijo Santa Maria 1962. Spanish fashion designer Dolores Cortes’ influence is seen in every corner alongside bespoke art pieces from acclaimed local artists.
The resort is also home to a spectacular 27-hole golf course designed by Manuel Piñero; a 3,000-square-metre spa and wellness club featuring a hammam and indoor pool; and a Kids Club with programmes to entertain little ones and teens. If you wish to venture further, Sotogrande Marina is packed with excellent restaurants, shops and art galleries as well as El Mercado de Levante, a street market with colourful, candy-striped stalls that are stacked with antiques, clothes and street bites. Or discover the area on two wheels with an electric bike tour that takes in the region over a two-hour route and concludes with a picnic lunch.
A PALATIAL LESSON IN HISTORY
Emblematic of Montenegro’s dichotomy of old and new, Heritage Grand Perast brings to life the rich history of a region where the mountains sweep down to the glittering Adriatic Sea. The former home of the powerful Smekja family, the hotel’s interiors take inspiration from the golden era of the Venetian Republic, which introduced grand architecture to the region. Nowadays, guests are invited to live like royalty as they drink in the views of Europe’s southernmost fjord, Kotor Bay. Cataleya SPA is home to a hammam, Finnish sauna and Turkish bath experiences, while restaurants delve into Mediterranean and Balkan cuisines with a side of incredible sea and mountain scenery.
Situated in the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage site, the property is bordered by Sveti Marko (the Church of Saint Mark) and is only a short stroll from the pier where boat tours depart for the pilgrimage sites of Our Lady of the Rocks and St. George, as well as a bounty of museums, churches and monuments. While history beckons around every corner of the town’s well-trodden cobbles, nature also plays an ever-present role; the hotel’s concierge service can organise guided tours and adventures including eco tuk-tuk rides and hikes into the mountainous landscape of Lovcen National Park.
