Dance in a “Rock”-n-Roll Cave

At Sandos Finisterra in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, you’ll find a glamorous nightclub built into a cave overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The Stones Night Club dedicates itself to rock-and-roll music, inviting guests to sip on tasty cocktails while dancing under disco balls to pumping throwback rock classics with cave rock on one side and water on the other.

Sleep in a Cave

Argos in Cappadocia, Türkiye, is carved into the cliffs of this historical region. Once an ancient monastery, the boutique hotel today features 71 uniquely designed guestrooms made of cave dwellings blending into the volcanic landscape. The hotel’s Splendid Suites offers a private pool and fireplace within a cave decorated with stone arches and cave-style architecture. Other underground spaces in the hotel include a spa and Europe’s largest natural wine cave offering wine tastings. Tunnel tours and cooking classes are also available in these underground caverns.

 

Feast Like a Viking in an Icelandic Cave

Dine like Iceland’s historic Vikings in the country’s oldest, still-standing archaeological remains, located minutes from Hotel Rangá. Stay at this hotel and venture to Caves of Hella, man-made caves dating back at least to the first Icelandic Vikings in 850 A.D. Wall carvings, a small altar and other relics adorn the cave, and you can enjoy a three-course feast (made by the hotel’s chefs) by candlelight while listening to live entertainment and sipping local beer or handpicked wines.

Explore Blue Hole Caves

The Andros islands in the Bahamas are home to the most blue holes in the world. Blue holes are sinkholes or underwater caves formed during the last ice age, and the Andros Blue Holes can be found both inland and offshore. Stay at Caerula Mar Club and you’ll have the chance to swim, snorkel and dive in these natural wonders.

Meritage

Relax and Indulge Underground

Beneath the rows of winding vines surrounding The Meritage Resort and Spa in Napa, California, is a 22,000-square-foot Estate Cave. This space is home to a luxurious underground spa, Spa Terra, which offers an array of treatments ranging from wine-infused massages to a “Caveman” facial. The space is also used for special events and wellness classes.

Tulum

Stay in a Cenote Suite

La Valise Tulum, a chic, adults-only hideaway in Mexico, sits on a secluded beach and features an on-site cenote (or underground cave) known for its healing waters. For a truly unique stay, the signature Cenote Suite features outdoor showers, private Jacuzzis and direct access to the jungle cenote.

 

Uncover Hidden Hawaiian Sea Caves

See the stunning landscape of Kauai’s Na’Pali Coast from Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach, located in Ka’paa village. This hotel is the perfect home base for exploring the island, including its secret sea caves that only small boats can access, allowing guests to snorkel and view waterfalls against the cliffs. There’s more than one cave here: Expect an open-ceiling cave, as well as the second-longest sea cave in the country, featuring natural formations like arches, lava tubes and a stalagmite. The team at the hotel can book a range of eco-friendly tours to explore these caves.
