Virgin Voyages is actually the only adults-only cruise line in the world. They offer 3-, 4-, 5-, 7-, 8-, or 11-day trips, mostly out of Miami. They have four ships currently, and I’ve heard rumors they’re about to start construction on a fifth. Virgin Voyages was started by Richard Branson—same founder as Virgin Records, Virgin Atlantic Airways, and Virgin USA—so it’s a well-known global brand.
It really depends on what you're looking to do. Sandals is all-inclusive and among the most romantic resorts. You can book overwater bungalows with 24-hour butler service. You’ll get picked up in a private luxury car at the airport and driven back in that same vehicle. Beachfront dinners are included, too.
There are tons of solo travel options—train tours, national parks, cultural trips in the South, or historical tours on the East Coast. I’m partial to Virginia because I’m originally from Charlottesville. Cruises are also solo-friendly, including Alaska cruises, which are technically domestic aside from a short stop in Vancouver.
Travel agents can help customize solo trips to your needs and interests, making it safer, easier, and more rewarding.
