Are lifestyle resorts couples-only?
It depends on the resort. Hedonism II in Jamaica accepts singles and couples. Desire Resorts in Mexico is couples-only. Most resort weekends organised by lifestyle groups are couples-only unless specifically stated otherwise. Check the specific resort or event listing for their current policy.
Lifestyle resort policies vary significantly. The most famous lifestyle resort, Hedonism II in Negril, Jamaica, welcomes singles and couples and maintains a balance through their occupancy management. Desire Resort and Spa in Puerto Morelos, Mexico, is strictly couples-only — no single guests of any gender.
The couples-only model exists primarily to manage the same gender imbalance that lifestyle clubs contend with: if a venue accepts single men freely, the attendee mix shifts in ways that change the atmosphere for couples. Couples-only resorts solve this structurally.
Organised lifestyle travel groups that book resort weekends or hotel takeovers often layer their own entry requirements on top of the resort's policy. A group organiser who books Hedonism may specify that their group segment is couples-only even though the resort itself accepts singles.
Bare Getaways is planned as JoinTheSwing's travel arm for resort bookings and lifestyle travel. Whichever agency or resort you use, check whether its packages state that singles are welcome, what the couple verification requirements are, and what the social format of the trip looks like.
