Looking for a party resort

We are 2 single girls in our late 20's looking for a good all inclusive resort somewhere in the Caribbean. We want a resort that has a great nightlife, that is active throughout the day and keeps on partying and most important that has plenty single men We are planning to travel this winter, probably early February. Any suggestions?<BR>

Hedonism in Jamaica comes to mind! There are several in Jamaica. Tons of party action, does get pretty wild though as it is also clothing optional.

A second vote for Hedonism! Jamaica, IMHO is the best party island. Lots of all inclusives that party, but Hedonism is the best. Cancun would be my second place vote, but I don't know how active it is in early February.

Depends on what type of partying you like to do. As a 25 yo who travels with girlfriends every summer, Hedonism was even a little much for me! I liek to drink, play beach volleyball, dance every night, go to sports bars and the like but I don't like people running around topless and practically mauling all over each other everywhere! Hedonism was so crazy that people were stripping doen and skinnydipping in the jacuzzi and pool at night. That is a little much. If looking for the party atmosphere but not the nudity or complete spring break atmoshere go to Breezes Bahamas (adults only). Loved it! Good drinks, not watered down, plenty people staying out late at the bars, great watersports, even a trapeze. We went last year and loved it. another one we loved was Jack Tar Village St. Kitts. However at the time it was an adults only and I heard that they switched to allow kids this year, you might check! Club Meds are good but very basic accomodations.

Jen, I vote for Cancun! Hedonism sounds a little much but Feb. in Cancun is great. You will miss the Spring Break crowd if you go in early Feb. but it still is high season. I never had a boring time there with my girlfriends when I was single, tons of clubs/bars and people looking to party. Go, you will have a great time and they have a variety of all-inclusives. Remember to book in Cancun, the Mayan Riviera is a little more quiet and away from the clubs of Cancun.

Jen,<BR><BR>I agree with Sue, go to Cancun. It doesn't matter which hotel you stay at on the main strip in Cancun in February because it's party central everywhere. Just be prepared to not sleep. The Oasis is really nice but again any hotel on the main strip is guaranteed party. There's so many clubs and bars on the main strip, across the street from all the hotels and February is spring break so there are a lot of people going down to Cancun ready to party (all of all ages). My friendas and I (men and women aged 24-30) are actually thinking of going this February- see you there. Have fun!

Try Club Med near Manzanillo Mexico--lots of singles. <BR>The best place to meet single guys is still at a ski resort and they party at night--try Killington Vermont, Steamboat Springs Colorado or Mammoth in California.

Jen,<BR>Maybe we could hook you up with the group of guys who were all on here last week looking for a party resort for themselves <BR>Actually, I would suggest Cancun also. You'll never run out of places to go and have fun, and it's one of the safer destinations for a group of girls in the Caribbean.<BR>Plus, accommodations are reasonably priced and there's a lot to see and do in the area.<BR>Stay at Camino Real in the Club Tower. Close to shopping and great restaurants, neat big pool area with a swim up beach bar, prices are great and quiet enough to rest up from your nighttime "activities."

I too love Cancun and there is definitely partying to be done there. Only one problem though, the all-inclusive's do not have entertainment at night adn no parties there! If you go all-inclusive your drinks and food will be covered but you will have to off resort at night to go to bars adn dance clubs adn of course your drinks and cover charges will not be covered there so bring extra money to patrty at night! We went to Cancun Palace 2 years ago as a group of 4 and it was a great resort, not super high class or anything. Just a nice resort decent food, great beach, good drinks and fun pool. It was an all-inclusive located right on the strip and the bus stopped at the hotel driveway. It was a 5-10 min ride (costing 1.50/person) to take the bus to clubs at night. the resort had entertainment each evening but it began at 7 and lasted until 9. After that the bars on proprty only stayed open until midnight and there was no disco! If you want all-inclusive with enough entertaiment to never have to leave the resort to party, I suggest the Allegro Resorts (there are several on different islands and i heard the one on Turks and Caicos was good) or the Breezes resorts (also several of these on different islands)

Hello,
Sorry to jump in, but I'm in the same situation, we are 3 single ladies looking to go to the caribbean! We like to party, drink, dance and mingle! Any suggestions. We are trying to stay away from all-inclusive since we had a bad experience in Punta Cana and couldn't bring anyone back to our hotel!
