Courtesy of Trixie Motel
Ah, the bachelorette party. Gone are the days when a trip to your local dive bar wearing a sash would suffice. Now finding the perfect bachelorette party destination tops many a maids' to-do list. In the age of TikTok, these girls trips have grown a lot more elaborate and, okay, expensive. It’s not uncommon to pack up the bridesmaids and head to another state, maybe even a foreign country.
So, if you're the bride yourself or the lucky one in charge of planning, getting a little overwhelmed (or feeling hard-core bridesmaid burnout) is understandable. The possibilities seem nearly limitless. That’s where we come in. We’ve scoured the globe for the absolute most fun and beautiful spots around the world that'll please every type of bride (and sate at least some of the preferences of her dynamic friend group). Read on for the best bachelorette party destinations from Austin to Amsterdam, vetted by Glamour writers.
Austin
It’s little wonder this jubilant city in Texas is one of America’s most popular destinations for bachelorette parties: The capital city boasts not only some of the Lone Star State’s most lauded restaurants and bars but a killer music scene and plenty of outdoor activity to boot. During the day take a dip at Barton Springs or shop the eclectic mix of boutiques on South Congress, then treat the girls to a tasting menu at Pasta Bar or host Sushi by Scratch Restaurants’ Omakase at Home at your Airbnb. After dinner, head to lively Rainey Street to hop between the trendy bungalow bars like The Stay Put or Lucille. And for the ultimate pampering experience in Austin, grab a room block at Commodore Perry Estate, Auberge Resorts Collection. A 10-acre spread in the center of the city, programming includes vinyl happy hour, botanical drawing classes, and Sunday picnics.

Amsterdam
There may be no city in Europe more closely associated with revelry than the capital of the Netherlands. And while a visit to one of the famous coffee shops still might be a must-do during your bachelorette weekend, this vibrant city offers far more than just legal marijuana and a rollicking bar scene. During the day you can wander Instagram-friendly winding streets like those in the De Negen Straatjes neighborhood or hop on a boat for a canal tour to get a quick overview of the city. At night hit up bustling microbreweries like Brouwerij ’t IJ or the buzzy bars and restaurants at NDSM Wharf, a former shipyard that’s now one of the coolest spots in the city. Book rooms for your bash at Pulitzer Amsterdam, a hotel comprising 25 former canal houses that even has its own fleet of boats to take you and the girls cruising on the water.

Orlando
If you're planning a bachelorette party for a Disney-loving bride but not everyone in the crew is going to be game to rope-drop all weekend (IYKYK), you can still go on a trip that offers the best of Disney's magic with some R&R. The newly renovated Waldorf Astoria Orlando offers a perfect respite from the parks thanks to the luxurious pools and private cabanas (you won't see a lot of screaming kids here), but it also provides easy (and early) access to them. Plus, there's a top-notch spa where the bride can de-stress in the Himalayan salt therapy room and outstanding eateries, including Bull & Bear, one of the best restaurants in all of Orlando (oh, and don't sleep on the cocktails; the Milk Punch is divine). Book a breezy suite with an Epcot view, and she'll feel like a Disney princess getting to watch the fireworks at night from the room's balcony.

Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda
Located in the Lesser Antilles, this Caribbean island might not be quite as top of mind as some of its neighbors like St. Lucia. But direct flights from many major East Coast cities make this beachy paradise incredibly easy to travel to, and the more than 350 beaches on the island will ensure you never want to leave (it's a favorite spot of ours for romantic getaways as well). Hit up the soft sand and turquoise waters at famed Dickenson Bay or Valley Church beach; play with stingrays and snorkel at the aptly named Stingray City; and, of course, sample rum punch from as many places as possible (it's the island’s national drink). Pamper yourself with a stay at Carlisle Bay, a beachfront property with some of the island’s best restaurants and bars ranging from the oceanside Coconut Grove to the lively Jetty Bar.

Aspen, Colorado
While this upscale town may be primarily known as a ski destination, its location in the Elk Mountains means it’s beautiful for an outdoor-focused bachelorette party any time of year. Start one of your mornings off with a hike in the famed and utterly gorgeous Maroon Bells Scenic Area (we recommend Crater Lake Trail), before heading into town for some seriously great shopping. There are more than 50 locally owned stores, offering everything from high-end to vintage. At night celebrate the bride-to-be at music venues like Belly Up, grab some suds at Aspen Brewing Company, and throw your hands up and dance at Escobar. One of our favorite hotels in the area is The Little Nell, a ski-in, ski-out boutique property with an on-site wine bar complete with a live DJ spinning vinyl.

Charleston, South Carolina
For a lively mix of beach time, boutique shopping, and top-notch food, there are few cities better for a bachelorette weekend than Charleston. Activities here can run the gamut from a soothing morning of group massages at Wentworth Mansion’s spa to soaking in the rays at Folly Beach and a day on the water exploring the barrier islands. Hit Upper King Street for the best barhopping, and we definitely recommend ending the night with a stop at Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit. Book a stay at midcentury stunner The Dewberry; the property’s rooftop cocktail lounge Citrus Club is the highest in the city. Pro tip: The Signature Queens room is perfect for doubling up during a bachelorette bash.

Dublin
With a flight time of under seven hours from many American East Coast cities and an easy-to-navigate city center, Dublin is one of the more accessible European capitals for a bachelorette party trip. If you really want to lean into the party aspect, then visits to the Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Distillery are a grand time (as the Irish say), but there’s far more to explore here than just the famed watering holes. We love wandering car-free Grafton Street for the shopping and the super-talented buskers, or throwing together an impromptu picnic on the beautiful St. Stephen’s Green. As for a place to stay, there is nowhere more beautiful or historic than Marriott property The Shelbourne, and No. 27 The Shelbourne Bar is one of the hottest cocktail spots in town.

Grenada
This island country in the West Indies may fly a little under the radar compared with its neighbors like the Bahamas or the Dominican Republic, but that’s one of the reasons we love it. A bachelorette trip here is, by nature, a little more low-key (it also makes for a great babymoon destination), which gives you and your girlfriends plenty of time to explore the tranquil beaches, relaxing mud baths, and stunning hikes. We recommend booking rooms at Mount Cinnamon, a boutique hotel with 36 suites and villas, all overlooking the famed Grand Anse beach. The hotel can also set up celebratory excursions, like tours of cocoa estates, rum distilleries, or even set up a rum tasting.

Ibiza, Spain
This Balearic island is basically synonymous with all-night partying, making it an excellent choice for a bachelorette weekend that might have you up until dawn. But visitors flock to Ibiza not just for the famed nightlife but the island’s considerable natural beauty as well. We recommend spending your days shopping the fantastic selection of boutique shops in Ibiza Town or the weekly markets at Punta Arabi, or making your way to one of the island’s hundreds of beaches (try Talamanca for starters). And when the sun sets, yes, it’s basically mandated you hit the clubs: Pacha, DC-10, and Hï Ibiza is a good list to get you started. And when you’re finally ready for bed, book a stay at Casa Maca Hotel, an intimate boutique hotel right outside Ibiza Town with breathtaking views of the island’s old town, Dalt Vila.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming
There are few mountain towns more dynamic than Jackson Hole. Not only is it known for its proximity to excellent ski mountains like Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and Snow King Mountain, but the area is also famed for its amazing hikes in nearby Teton Village and its over 50 miles of paved bike pathways in the valley of Jackson Hole. At night you can explore the vibrant farm-to-table restaurant scene or listen to live music in famed haunts like Million Dollar Cowboy Bar. Splurge on rooms at Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole, where complimentary programming includes Wyoming whiskey tastings, wine tastings, and beer tastings; and other amenities include a ski concierge and an outdoor heated pool.

Lake Tahoe, California
Straddling California and Nevada, this outdoors paradise is perhaps best known for being one of the West Coast’s premier ski destinations, thanks to mountains like Heavenly Ski Resort and Palisades Tahoe. But obviously the lake itself is also a major draw in the warmer months for everything from paddleboarding to boating. A bachelorette trip here won’t have you indoors much (although there are casinos on the South Shore), but we doubt you’ll mind once you see the stunning surroundings. Grab rooms for the gal pals at Edgewood Tahoe Resort, a shorefront property with three on-site restaurants, gemstone massages at Spa Edgewood, and ski rentals delivered directly to your room.

Los Angeles
If you’re looking for a mix of high-energy cosmopolitan feel and chill beach vibes, then sunny, glittering Los Angeles is the ideal candidate for your bachelorette party. You can spend mornings at the beach in Venice or hiking celeb-favorite Runyon Canyon Park; afternoons exploring the stellar boutiques on stretches like Abbot Kinney or the iconic Rodeo Drive; and evenings taking in the city’s varied and excellent dining scene, particularly in neighborhoods like the Arts District and the Vinyl District inside Hollywood. Grab rooms at the adults-only hotel The Aster, with 35 suites roomy enough to share and amenities like a poolside cocktail bar and private cinema.

Los Cabos, Mexico
Almost limitless sunshine, two beautiful bodies of water, and whales: What more could you want from a Mexican bachelorette trip? Los Cabos, on the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja peninsula, is one of the county’s most popular vacation spots for good reason. And there’s something for everyone here, including your friend in search of the best Baja-style fish tacos and your sister who just has to have a spa day. One of our favorite getaways in Mexico is here too: Las Ventanas al Paraiso, A Rosewood Resort. Your visit starts with a welcome tequila and only gets better from there. Amenities and programming include live entertainment most nights, luxe beach cabanas, and captivating whale-watching tours. And don’t miss on-site restaurant Arbol’s fantastic coastal cuisine or La Botica, the property’s sexy speakeasy piano bar.

Las Vegas
Can you have a story on bachelorette trips and not include Las Vegas? Of course not. Sin City is the ne plus ultra for this sort of party, whether your focus is on all-out clubbing or a long weekend of serious pampering in the city’s many venerated spas. And if all else fails, there’s always Australia’s Thunder Down Under. While the hotel selection is strong here, if you’re looking for something a little less Vegas-y, we’re big fans of Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas. Excellent on-site restaurants like Zen Kitchen and an enormous spa and pool deck make this luxury property ideal for a girls trip.

Miami
Hot temps, glamorous nightlife, and plenty of sand beneath your toes: Miami is pretty much tailor-made for bachelorette parties. Spend your days taking some cute pics for the ’gram at Wynwood Walls or exploring the thrift shops in nearby Allapattah, and your nights conquering Miami’s impressive roster of world-class restaurants (check out Miami Design District or South Beach for some of the buzziest tables) and chic bars. Put yourself in the heart of the action by booking rooms at SLS Brickell. We love the fabulous views and bubbling vibe at the hotel’s pool terrace and the cozy Lounge for pre-dinner drinks. Looking for more of a high-end resort vibe? We also love the luxurious Setai.

Montauk, New York
Often affectionately known as the End of the World, this once sleepy surfing hamlet at the far east end of Long Island has, in recent years, become quite the party hot spot during the high summer season. But a visit here nearly any time of year is a blast: Apart from its beloved beaches like Ditch Plains, the area is also home to some of The Hamptons’ most famed seafood spots and tons of music and arts festivals. And, when you’re ready to really celebrate, you can’t beat spots like Gurney’s Montauk Resort, The Surf Lodge, and Montauk Brewing Co. We love Ruschmeyers Hotel for group trips; the bunk rooms and outdoor fire pit make it feel like adult summer camp.

Montreal
Montreal is almost like two cities in one. You can visit during the colder months for a winter paradise with activities like ice skating, Christmas markets, and major festivals like Montreal en Lumiere, or enjoy a trip during its temperate summer, when you can wander through massive food markets like Marche Jean Talon and chill out at Bota Bota, a floating spa docked in the city’s Old Port. This Canadian city is also known for its superb roster of restaurants, making every dinner out here a pretty dazzling experience. Book rooms at The Honeyrose Hotel, Montreal, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel, a new property with Art Deco–inspired design and a sweet indoor pool.

Napa Valley, California
If you and the girls are big into wine, then we probably don’t need to recommend Napa Valley as a bachelorette party option. This beautiful swath of Northern California may be best known for its plentiful vineyards and tasting rooms, but if vino isn’t number one on your bucket list, there’s much more on offer here than just great Cabernet. The Napa river is excellent for kayaking; you can book a hot-air balloon ride for a (nearly) out-of-this-world photo op, and the shopping in St. Helena packs a punch well above its size. Bed down for the night at Milliken Creek Inn, a recently redesigned property offering private outdoor fire pits, made-to-order breakfast in bed, and a complimentary afternoon wine hour.

Nassau, Bahamas
When you think of the ideal Caribbean spot for a bachelorette weekend, we’re guessing the Bahamas might be top of mind. And one of the most beautiful spots is also the most accessible: The island nation’s capital of Nassau boasts direct flights from many major US cities, and the East Coast flight time can be under three hours. Once there, you and the girls can relax at dreamy spots like Cable Beach, with its impossibly clear water, or book a boat ride to explore the island by sea. One of our favorite hotels in all of the Bahamas is in Nassau: Rosewood Baha Mar. We’re big fans of its two magnificent pools, the huge size of the rooms, and the classic cocktails at Manor Bar.

Newport, Rhode Island
Does The Gilded Age have you a little more curious about this former playground of New York society? Newport offers far more than just tennis or yachts, however: This town on Rhode Island’s “Classic Coast” is just as well known for its beautiful oceanfront views on the Cliff Walk, historic mansion tours, and the many wineries and breweries. But if you want a little taste of the town’s elegant history, then definitely reserve rooms at The Vanderbilt, Auberge Resorts Collection. Housed inside the former mansion of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, the boutique hotel has a secret bar hidden inside the parlor, newly renovated rooms, and a Champagne tower every Friday night to kick off the weekend.

New York City
While perhaps not ideal if you and the girlfriends are looking for a weekend of rest and relaxation, if shopping, dining out, and late nights are on the agenda, then there are few cities better suited to your celebration than the Big Apple. Explore charming neighborhoods like the windy streets and hot restaurants of the West Village or the excellent vintage shopping on the Lower East Side or Williamsburg, and then dance until dawn at warehouse parties in Bushwick or hang at intimate cocktail dens in the East Village. When you’re finally ready to crash, we love the calm, luxurious rooms at Loews Regency New York Hotel; we’re especially fans of the the Glamour Suite, which was inspired by Marilyn Monroe.

Nashville
Holston House Nashville
Courtesy of Holston HouseThe capital of Tennessee’s most recognizable nickname is Music City, but there is good reason it’s also affectionately known as Nashvegas. The deep bench of live entertainment venues, lively bars, and some of the best restaurants in the South make Nashville a rollicking good time for a bachelorette party. Spend your mornings brunching at spots like Husk, or grab a quick (yet impeccable bite) at The Wash, then rest up for a night of barhopping at Honky Tonk Highway, or in East Nashville (we love Bastion). And when you need a little beauty sleep, make a beeline for Holston House, a—dare we say—sexy boutique hotel that's a quick walk from all the revelry but tucked away enough that your #NashBash crew can decompress. There's also a chic rooftop pool to get away from (and above) it all. PS: If rooftops are your vibe, you can't beat the views at L27 or the Instagrammable Airstream atop the Bobby

Eliza Jane Hotel
Courtesy of the Eliza Jane HotelNew Orleans
Another stellar option for a bachelorette trip that’s catered toward a bride who loves to eat, drink, and jam out to live music is, of course, the Big Easy. And there are few places in America that are as simply fun as New Orleans, like its unofficial motto, “Laissez les bons temps rouler” (Let the good times roll), implies. To that end, make sure you treat yourself well while you’re here: Eat the bananas foster at Brennan’s, sip a French 75 at Arnaud’s, go vintage shopping on Magazine Street, take in a jazz show at Preservation Hall on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, or idle away while sipping wine and listening to music at one of our favorite gems, Bacchanal. As for where to stay: We love the design of The Eliza Jane, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt. Located inside revitalized 19th-century warehouses (once home to The Daily Picayune and named for its publisher), between the serene courtyard oasis and muted pink Wes Anderson color scheme, it’s a pitch-perfect mix of old and new. Another favorite in Nola is International House Hotel, whose on-site bar Loa serves some of the city’s coolest cocktails.

Palm Beach, Florida
There’s Florida, and then there’s Palm Beach. Long known for being a more refined sister to wilder spots like Miami, this beach town on a barrier island boasts super-clear waters, some of the state’s best shopping, and hotels that are perfect for a long weekend of pampering. While the resorts here are almost all uniformly spectacular, we especially love Eau Palm Beach Resort and Spa for a bachelorette weekend. Perks include private beach access, complimentary bike rentals and tennis court reservations, and oceanfront cabanas that can fit you and all the girls.

Palm Springs, California
Not to be confused with its Floridian neighbor above, Palm Springs is also a top destination for a super-fun bachelorette trip. While both share abundant sunshine and chic hotels, the vibe in Palm Springs veers a little more toward midcentury-modern hip and exploring the outdoors. We love the gorgeous shots you can take from the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway as much as we love a spa day at the high-design Palm Springs Yacht Club (ask for your complimentary tasting of the cucumber-infused vodka), and the shopping (be sure to snap your group pic beneath the epically giant Marilyn Monroe statue). And there is nowhere more fun to shack up with friends than Life House, Palm Springs. On-site speakeasy Minerva’s Indoor Apothecary transports you straight to the glamorous times of the ’50s and ’60s.

San Diego
Known as California’s Beach City, this friendly spot on the Pacific Coast caters equally to sun seekers, wellness aficionados, and outdoor enthusiasts. We recommend spending the day exploring the city’s 70 miles of coastline (beaches Coronado and Del Mar are faves), and nights tackling the impressive food scene (Animae for Asian fusion and Puesto for fish tacos). Hotelwise, The Wayfarer San Diego, perched on Pacific Beach, has not only an excellent location but fun perks like access to the Pacific Surf School and king suites that can sleep up to six.

Savannah, Georgia
Few places are as quietly beautiful as Spanish-moss-draped Savannah. But the coastal city has far more to offer than just the manicured gardens of the historic district. Known as one of the South’s friendliest areas (which is really saying something) and for its deep commitment to a thriving restaurant and bar scene, it’s a superb location for any kind of girls trip. And, it’s worth pointing out, the shopping here is phenomenal. Grab rooms at Thompson Savannah, a riverfront property with private cabanas on the deck for your own pool party, and programming that includes bespoke dinner parties complete with a custom beverage cart.

Scottsdale, Arizona
If the vibe of the bachelorette is leaning toward chill and chiller, then there may be nowhere better suited than Scottsdale. The city has a staggering amount of resorts and day spas (50 and counting), which means regardless of what type of relaxation you’re after, we guarantee you’ll find it here. And of course, the city’s desert location means there’s plenty of outdoor activities here as well, from hiking to hot-air ballooning. Those looking for the ultimate in pampering should book a room block at Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North. Amenities include a bilevel pool, casitas with gas-burning fireplaces, and one of the finest spas in Scottsdale.

Sonoma County, California
The more laid-back cousin to Napa Valley, Sonoma County is no slouch when it comes to its vineyards. With more than 425 wineries in the region, we guarantee that you and the girlfriends can find at least one (and probably dozens) that will delight everyone. Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays are the grapes to keep an eye out for here, but when you’re ready to take a break, Sonoma is also home to over 40 spas. One of our favorite properties in the area is The Lodge at Sonoma Resort, Autograph Collection: There are evening receptions with local winemakers, a heated outdoor pool, and—you won’t see this one coming—a horse trailer that’s been converted into a cocktail bar. We also love the more budget-friendly Flamingo Resort.

St. Lucia
It can sometimes be difficult to pick a Caribbean destination—so many are replete with crystal clear waters, soft sand, and incredible hotels—but if there’s one quality that sets St. Lucia apart, it’s its stunning natural topography of beaches, mountains, and jungles. Also noteworthy, it’s the only sovereign nation named for a woman. One of the island’s prettiest properties, StolenTime by Rendezvous, also has a new bachelorette package that includes beach boot camps with your besties, morning yoga and meditation sessions, and personalized robes for the whole party.

Tulum, Mexico
Known for chic bars, destination-worthy restaurants, and Insta-friendly resorts, it’s little wonder that Tulum is one of the most popular spots in Mexico for a bachelorette party. And if you’re after something a bit more low-key, the area is also well known for being a hub of wellness, whether that’s group yoga classes or cacao rituals. We love the laid-back but luxe vibes at The Beach Tulum, a beachfront adults-only property with most rooms equipped with private plunge pools, or terraces with hot tubs.
