Chicago, Illinois

Chicago may be one of the most underrated bachelorette destinations. In addition to being easy to get to from all parts of the country, this lakeside spot transforms into a beach town in the summer. Stay at The Drake for easy access to all that the city has to offer. For a baseball-loving bride, head to historic Wrigley Field for a Cubs game before bar-hopping around the neighborhood. First-time visitors to the city will love the Architectural Boat Tour, which reveals the stories behind the city's famous buildings.

Palm Beach, Florida

Palm Beach isn't just for grandparents; it's also the ideal spot for an unique bachelorette party. Avery Singer and Jolie Lauren, the co-founders of BachBoss, recommend booking a stay at The Colony Hotel or The Breakers. Organize a beach picnic or a boat day for the bride who wants to be by (or on) the water at all hours of the day. For a night of dinner and dancing, they suggest heading to Cucina, a restaurant that has a lively club-like atmosphere—complete with unexpected entertainment.

The Hamptons, New York

Grassy lawns, pristine beaches, and top-notch restaurants make the Hamptons the perfect spot for a destination bachelorette party. Book a stay at Gurney's in Montauk for the ultimate seaside retreat. When you're ready to celebrate, Singer and Lauren recommend heading to The Surf Lodge, booking a boat day, or arranging for a beach picnic. Other options include wine tasting at Wölffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack, taking a surf lesson at Hamptons Surf Co., or shopping in Southhampton.

Ibiza

It's easy to understand why Ibiza is a desirable location for a destination bachelorette party. The island, located off the southeastern coast of Spain, is known for its nightlife, beach parties, and iconic sunsets. However, this European spot boasts much more than a flourishing club scene. For the best experience, Dr. Terika Haynes, the CEO and founder of Dynamite Travel, recommends booking your stay at One Ibiza Suites, Nobu Hotel, or ME, which are close to all kinds of attractions. While on the island, she suggests exploring the Can Marca caves or spending a day of recovery at BLESS Hotel Spa.

Dubai

More and more bachelorette parties are taking place in Dubai, where groups can embark on desert safaris, host parties on the beach, and explore lively marketplaces. If you're thinking about embarking on this type of trip, note that it will likely come with a high price tag. Book your stay at Atlantis the Royal, Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach, ME Dubai, or Nikki Beach Dubai, says Haynes. Head to the Dubai Mall and local Souks for shopping, engage in a few desert activities, or visit Jumeirah Beach, which has some of the best entertainment and nightlife in the city.

Barbados

Barbados is memorable, beautiful, and lively. With endless stretches of powder-white beaches and a local culture predicated on delicious Bajan food and lively music, this small island country in the eastern Caribbean Sea is the ultimate bachelorette destination. Haynes recommends staying at the O2 Beach Club & Spa, The Sands, The Crane, and Sandals Barbados. Once there, venture into Harrison's Cave, a network of caves located in the center of the island, which can be explored by tram. Fill the rest of your days with a Mount Gay rum tour or by lounging on one of the island's best beaches. When the sun sets, head to the St. Lawrence Gap to dance the night away.

Negril, Jamaica

For the bride who wants a more risqué getaway, head to Hedonism II, Negril, Jamaica’s famous all-inclusive, adults-only, clothing-optional resort. When it comes time to pause the partying and spend some time relaxing, book a therapeutic mud bath at the Blue Hole Mineral Spring in Brighton District for some much-needed rest. Following your treatment, take a stroll along Bourbon Beach for live reggae performances.

Palos Verdes, California

If you want to prioritize wellness, head to Terranea Resort, the ideal weekend spot to unwind and enjoy luxurious amenities. Wellness programs include everything from therapeutic in-room massages and soothing baths to pre-bedtime facial masks and personalized meditations. Unplug at Terranea Cove Beach or join a group activity, such as a painting lesson, kayaking tour, or a guided coastal hike. Make a stop at the Wayfarer's Chapel, a popular religious site, to marvel at its architecture. To witness a whale migration with the Point Vicente Interpretive Center, be sure to schedule your trip during the springtime.

Manchester, Vermont

Vermont is the ideal unique bachelorette destination for the group who wants to lean into a cozy vibe. For a weekend of rejuvenating and relaxing activities, head to Kimpton Taconic Hotel. Looking to après-ski (or après-snowshoe, shop, or even a sleigh ride)? Hit the slopes at Bromley or Stratton, two award-winning ski resorts located near the hotel. And after a long day of skiing, arrange a bonfire and gather everyone for a round of s'mores and hot chocolate at the hotel.

New Orleans, Louisiana

While it's known as a historic city, book a stay for your bachelorette party at one of New Orleans's new and noteworthy hotels, Haynes says. She recommends Virgin Hotel, Four Seasons New Orleans, Ace Hotel, or the Eliza Jane Hotel. For a night out, opt for jazz bar-hopping along Frenchmen Street, where local favorites include Blue Nile, The Spotted Cat Music Club, and Preservation Hall. Still can't get enough of the genre? Take a tour of the New Orleans Jazz Museum. If you and your squad are up for hitting spookier spots, take ghost tours around town or browse voodoo shops on Bourbon Street.

Charleston, South Carolina

For the bride who wants a quaint city excursion, Charleston’s historic charm provides a relaxing yet sophisticated bachelorette destination. Stay at The Spectator, French Quarter Inn, and HarbourView Inn, all located in the heart of the city. Each of these spots offers an impressive variety of complimentary amenities, such as personal butlers, pillow menus, and artisanal in-room breakfasts. Spend your days shopping at King Street’s boutiques, taking a carriage ride, or enjoying a panoramic sunset aboard a Schooner Pride sailboat cruise.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

For brides who want a luxurious bachelorette weekend, book a flight to Cabo. "With Cabo being a longtime celebrity favorite, bachelorette parties can bank on feeling like Hollywood royalty," Avey says. For an all-around resort, try Chileno Bay Resort & Residences. Plan a night out at Mandala, Squid Roe, or Nowhere Bar, say Singer and Lauren. For a more artsy trip, visit San José del Cabo’s Gallery District and join an art walk. Sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, whale watching, surfing, and swimming with whale sharks (from September to April) are all available as water activities. If you prefer an adventure on land, ride a camel through the desert, hike, or rent an ATV to explore the Baja Outback.

La Fortuna (Alajuela), Costa Rica

For nature lovers who want an adventurous getaway, head to Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa, a tropical paradise spread across 900 acres of lush Costa Rican rainforest near the base of the Arenal Volcano. After visiting the botanical gardens, soak in the hot springs and naturally-heated waterfalls. To unwind, indulge in spa treatments rendered in outdoor bungalows to the sounds of local wildlife, or head to the pool for cocktails. If your bride is an adrenaline enthusiast, opt for horseback riding, zip-lining, and hiking through the lava fields to the La Fortuna Waterfall. For a more laid-back adventure, join a safari float tour along the Peñas Blancas River, which ends with a chocolate field visit.

Vieques, Puerto Rico

For the group searching for a truly unique bachelorette destination, head to Vieques Island, an undiscovered Caribbean destination eight miles off the coast of Puerto Rico. Blue Horizon, an adults-only boutique hotel located on the waterfront, has beach access, an on-site restaurant, and Jeep rentals, so you and your best friends can explore everything the island has to offer. Other activities include hiking, horseback riding, and guided nighttime tours of the sublime Bioluminescent Bay.

Manhattan, New York

Dreaming of a city getaway? There's no better spot to head than New York. Stay atThe Standard, High Line, which is also home to Le Bain, a penthouse club and rooftop bar; The Biergarten, a street-level beer garden; and The Standard Grill, an iconic restaurant that blends traditional steakhouse fares with New American cuisine. New York offers options for every possible bachelorette activity on your radar. If you're into theater, get everyone together for a show on or off Broadway. Art lovers can go gallery hopping in Chelsea or visit The Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Museum of Modern Art. At night, catch a burlesque show at the Slipper Room, watch stand-up comedy at New York Comedy Club, or listen to slam poetry at the Nuyorican Poets Cafe.

St. Thomas Parish, Nevis

For frequent travelers looking to bask in unspoiled waters, Nevis is an untouched gem in the Caribbean. With only seven generously sized villas (all have two to four bedrooms), Paradise Beach is ideal for groups traveling together. Enjoy the idyllic blue waters of the Caribbean with reef and wreck dives; take a catamaran sail to St. Kitts and spend the day beach-hopping, swim across the channel; or leisurely spend the day lounging in your villa overlooking the Nevis Peak volcano.

Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Playacar Palace, the perfect all-inclusive resort, is home to spacious suites, a spa, and five gourmet restaurants. For a trip to Playa del Carmen, Haynes also recommends Secrets Moxche and the Grand Hyatt, which are both popular spots for groups. While there, spend your days lounging poolside or on a chartered catamaran. Since the island is mostly a car-free zone, you'll have the chance to explore much of it on foot. Opt to dance the night away at Coco Bongo or the Mandala Night Club. If you prefer the daytime beach-club scene, head to Mamita's Beach Club and Coralina Daylight Club for sunset pool parties.

Bimini, Bahamas

Located just 50 miles off the coast of Florida, Bimini is the closest Caribbean island to the U.S. Bachelorette parties on this charming seven-mile island will feel a world away during a stay at Resorts World Bimini. The property is home to a rooftop infinity pool, the largest marina in the Bahamas, and VIP suites that open directly into a lagoon pool with a swim-up bar. Charter a catamaran for the day to snorkel the S.S. Sapona shipwreck or swim with hammerhead sharks in the clearest water in the Bahamas. If that sounds too extreme, a 20-minute boat ride can take you to Honeymoon Cay, a spot where you can swim with manta rays.

Napa Valley, California

For the group that loves California wines, head to Napa Valley. Book a stay at Andaz Napa, a boutique hotel within walking distance of Napa's best spots. If you're craving a more secluded retreat with pools and laid-back charm, head to The Meritage, which is tucked away in the hills. Take an unforgettable hot air balloon ride with Napa Valley Aloft overlooking the gorgeous vineyards of Napa Valley, or ride the Wine Train for a half-day, four-course fine dining experience in an intimate luxury rail car that ends with wine tasting.

Herradura, Costa Rica

Herradura is the perfect destination for nature-loving explorers who want to give back to the environment. Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and 1,100 acres of tropical rainforest in Costa Rica, Los Sueños Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort is ideal for an adventurous bachelorette weekend with a variety of activities, including zip-lining, horseback riding, and canopy tours. While there, partake in complimentary salsa lessons, taste local flavors with tortilla and gallo-pinto classes, and indulge in the signature Sibo Spa & Retreat, five dining venues, and a network of pools and swim-up bars.

Tulum, Mexico

Want a beach getaway with a slice of history? Head to Tulum. For a memorable trip, book rooms at Azulik, a luxury treehouse hotel perched on top of a jungle. Visit the property's secluded, adults-only, clothing-optional beach, and then dine at the in-house Kin Toh Restaurant. Azulik also has a beach bar overlooking the Caribbean Sea, and a spa offering holistic Mayan treatments for spiritual cleansing and awakening. History buffs have to make a trip to the nearby Mayan ruins, as well as Pablo Escobar’s mansion at Casa Malca.

Uco Valley, Argentina

Hailed as "the Napa Valley of the South," Uco Valley is the perfect spot for a unique bachelorette party. Stay at Casa de Uco, which is situated on a 790-acre estate and vineyard. With only 16 rooms, large parties can rent out the entire property for a weekend. Dine under the night sky, try a one-of-a-kind wine-parcel tasting through the vineyards with a sommelier, learn the sector de fuego (fire pit) barbecue cooking technique, and design your own wine labels and brand via the Wine Barrel Program. Other off-site activities include moonlit horseback rides, trekking excursions, and white-water rafting.

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Punta Cana is for the group looking for a budget-friendly, underrated beach getaway. "The tropical atmosphere, pristine beaches, and lively entertainment scene make it comparable to Cancun; however, it’s often half the price," says Avey. Haynes recommends the Hyatt Zilara and Secrets Cap Cana, both of which are good for groups. The white-sand Bavaro Beach and Saona Island, known for its pink starfish, are must-visits. Take a dip at the serene Hoyo Azul lagoon, or go snorkeling, zip-lining, or even horseback riding. Punta Cana also has a bustling nightlife scene; head to Imagine, a club in a cave, or Coco Bongo, known for its acrobatic performers.

Clearwater Beach, Florida

For a coastal getaway, consider Florida's Clearwater Beach. At Sandpearl Resort, enjoy luxury accommodations, happy hour, and a four-course organic cooking demo with the chef—complete with wine pairings. Maximize the sun, sand, and sea exposure and have drinks (and a massage!) seaside. Head to Sand Key Park, a less populated beach where you may just spot endangered turtles laying eggs. If you'd prefer to enjoy the island from a boat, head to the Clearwater Beach Marina and rent one for your crew.

Rosemary Beach, Florida

30A—a stretch of beautiful beach communities along a 24-mile highway in Florida—is the perfect spot for a laid-back bachelorette trip. Rent an Airbnb for your group, or book a stay at The Pearl. If you do opt for a house, Singer and Lauren recommend hiring a Hibachi chef to come cook for the group one night. Other unique meal options include hosting a beach picnic or bonfire.
