There’s nothing like hitting a pure golf shot. Everything feels right. From your takeaway to contact and into your follow-through, everything blends into the next. You look up, the ball’s high in the sky, before dropping, bouncing, and landing on target.

But perhaps more important are the places you golf and the people you golf with. Visiting world-class courses across the globe immerses you in nature, making every round a mini-vacation. It’s even better when you’re in the company of friends.

The Cabot Collection, a developer of luxury resort and residential golf destinations, just announced the addition of the former Golf Du Médoc Resort, a premier golf and wine destination in Bordeaux, France. Nestled among French countryside and open vineyards, the enchanting resort, now known as Cabot Bordeaux, is a dream golf getaway.

In Southwest France, Cabot Bordeaux promises a golf getaway like nothing else. Combining picturesque courses, luxury accommodations, and fine food and wine, the resort offers serious golfers a trip to remember. 

When it’s time to hit the links, two courses designed by well-known architects Bill Coore and Rod Whitman offer a mix of challenge and scenery. Both Golf Digest and Golf Magazine rate the layouts among the best in Europe. While creating the course, the designers paid homage to early 20th-century French golf architecture, which experienced a golden age before World War I occurred. Set among captivating land and requiring astute strategy, the courses are demanding yet beautiful.

After a round, guests can relax in the 79-room hotel, which has a restaurant highlighting regional French cuisine. To recover and recharge, a world-class spa offers a heated indoor pool, various treatments, a fitness room, and a hammam. To prepare for the next 18 holes, the Bernard Pascassio Training Center has golf simulation rooms, a practice course configuration, and a TaylorMade fitting room.

Ben Cowan-Dewar, CEO and co-founder of Cabot, commented, “Bordeaux holds a special place in the hearts of travelers worldwide, known not only for its rich history and stunning landscapes but also for its remarkable culinary offerings and universally revered wine. We are thrilled to now have a presence in this iconic destination and look forward to offering guests unforgettable experiences that seamlessly blend exploration and cultural immersion with world-class golf.”

Coffee service at Alma Resort Cam Ranh in Vietnam has gone mobile… on two wheels. In a creative nod to Vietnam’s rich coffee heritage, the resort now offers a one-of-a-kind experience where a barista pedals up to guests’ pavilions and handcrafts their brew right at the door.

Available daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the service, aptly called “The Essence of Vietnamese Coffee, Brought to Your Door,” invites guests to choose from four signature drinks. Options include bold iced black coffee, smooth iced white coffee with condensed milk, the sweet and creamy Vietnamese classic bạc xỉu, and a distinctive salted coffee that balances savory and sweet.

This luxury all-inclusive resort in Florida feels like the Caribbean—no passport needed
A little taste of paradise nestled in the Florida Keys
Bungalows Key Largo

Over the past few years, I've stayed at various all-inclusive resorts in popular tropical destinations, such as Punta Cana and St. Lucia. No matter which resort you go to and which destination you pick, relaxation is a universal theme across all-inclusive resorts. All-inclusive resorts are a popular choice for travelers who don't want to be bothered to take out their credit card all day long and who want to lie poolside or beachside for the majority of the day.

There's something to be said about the luxury and convenience of an all-inclusive resort, but they're tough to find domestically. I set out on a trip to the Bungalows Key Largo to try my first-ever U.S. all-inclusive resort experience, delivering a similar atmosphere to Caribbean and Mexico all-inclusive resorts -- yet no passport required. Here's what my stay was like and why I'd do it again.
