Best Vacation Spots for Guys Trips

By The VacationDeals.to TeamMarch 18, 202611 min read

The annual guys trip is sacred. It's the one time a year you and your buddies stop texting in the group chat and actually do something together. The challenge is always the same: everyone wants to go somewhere awesome, nobody wants to spend a fortune, and somehow you need to coordinate grown men who still struggle to RSVP to a dinner. Vacation deals through resort previews solve the money part, which — let's be honest — is the hard part.

One married guy in the group books the resort deal. Everyone else splits the cost. A $99/night suite divided four ways is less than $25/person/night. Your buddy's garage has worse amenities than these resorts, and you've slept there before. Upgrade your guys trip without upgrading your budget.

Scottsdale, Arizona — Golf Capital

Scottsdale has more golf courses per capita than anywhere in America, which makes it the promised land for golf groups. Wyndham deals start at $109/night for 3 nights. TPC Scottsdale, Troon North, and We-Ko-Pa are all within 30 minutes. Tee off in the morning, hit Old Town's bar scene at night. Repeat for three days.

Las Vegas, Nevada — The Obvious Choice

Vegas needs no introduction for guys trips. HGV runs Strip packages from $99/night for 3 nights, and Westgate Las Vegas offers deals from $89/night with massive suites. Sports betting, pool parties, steakhouses, and shows — Vegas has perfected the art of separating men from their money in the most enjoyable way possible.

Pro Tip: For a golf guys trip, call the resort concierge after booking and ask about preferred tee times and group rates at nearby courses. Resort guests often get 10-20% off greens fees at partner courses.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina — Golf + Beach + Budget

Myrtle Beach has over 80 golf courses, a beach, and prices that make everyone happy. Westgate Oceanfront deals start at $79/night for 4 nights. Play a different course every day for under $50/round, then hit the boardwalk for seafood and cold drinks. It's the guys trip that costs less than a weekend at home.

Orlando, Florida — More Than You Think

Orlando's not just for families. Westgate Lakes runs deals from $99/night for 4 nights, and the city has world-class golf, bass fishing, go-kart tracks, and a nightlife scene on International Drive that rivals most cities. Plus, spending a day at Universal as grown men who rode roller coasters 47 times is an underrated experience.

Nashville, Tennessee — Music, Meat, and Whiskey

Nashville's guys trip appeal is simple: great food, great bars, and live music everywhere. Wyndham deals start at $89/night. Hit Broadway's honky-tonks (no cover charge), eat at Hattie B's or Martin's BBQ, and tour a whiskey distillery. Nashville is also surprisingly affordable for food and drinks compared to most destination cities.

Fun Fact: Myrtle Beach hosts more than 3.5 million rounds of golf annually, making it one of the busiest golf destinations in the world. Spring and fall offer the best combination of weather and green fees.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida — Deep Sea Fishing Base

Fort Lauderdale is the sportfishing capital of the world, and it's an incredible base for a guys trip. Wyndham deals start at $109/night for 4 nights. Book a half-day charter, catch mahi-mahi or sailfish, then grill your catch at the resort. The Intracoastal Waterway bar scene is laid-back and fun.

Lake Tahoe, Nevada — Outdoor Adventure

For groups that prefer hiking, mountain biking, and kayaking over golf and nightlife, Tahoe is hard to beat. While direct resort deals are less common, Wyndham South Shore runs occasional packages from $119/night. The outdoor activities are world-class, and the casinos on the Nevada side add a fun evening option.

Fort Lauderdale, FL$109/nt4$109/tripFishing
Pro Tip: Stock the suite kitchen with groceries on arrival day. Breakfast in the room and packed cooler lunches at the golf course save $30-50 per person per day, which adds up to a huge savings over 3-4 days.

The guys trip doesn't have to be expensive to be legendary. Vacation deals give your group a luxury home base at prices that make everyone say yes — even that buddy who always claims he can't afford it. Book a resort deal, split the cost, and make some memories that'll keep the group chat alive until next year. Browse our deals under $100 for the most affordable options.
