Sometimes you don't need an entire island to have fun but rather, one place such as these private compound megaresorts- supersized for fun on a grand scale. 

Barceló Maya Complex

Barceló Maya Caribe, Colonial, Tropical, or Beach? You have to choose one, but you can play at all four on this long stretch of beachfront. With a Maya Mall for shopping, Strikers bowling alley, mini–golf, Pirates Island Water Park, Surf Ride Pool, Dolphinaris, Plaza Mexicana shopping center, 12 restaurants to accompany a baker's dozen of bars, and even its own church, you'll never want–or need–to leave the grounds.

Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort

When a resort is big enough to have their own dolphinarium to swim in, 27 holes of Jack Nicklaus Signature golf on premises, FlowRider surfing simulator, 15 restaurants, 39 spa treatment rooms, 11 different themed game rooms in "The Playroom" kids club, 140,000–square–foot convention center, and golf carts to get you from one point to another, there are no other words but "mega" and "wow" to describe it.

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

As the only resort destination on Waikiki, this property sets the bar high for anyone seeking to challenge that claim. A 10,000–square–foot Super Pool and multi–layered Paradise Pool are only two of five, and 20 restaurants and bars keep you in full view of 22 long acres of oceanfront, gorgeous gardens, and a private lagoon. Over 90 boutiques and shops beg to be browsed, and if you over–shopped? No worries—it has its own post office.

Meliá Caribe Tropical Resort

Ten pools–including exclusive ones just for The Level, the luxury resort within the resort–and two huge spas; a full casino; golf course; shopping center with international brands; children's area with a zip line, climbing wall, super jumper, and workshops; 1,138 rooms; 13 meeting rooms; and gathering space for up to 1,000 people – all this resort is missing is its own zip code!

Atlantis, Paradise Island

People don't just travel to Paradise Island in the Bahamas—they go to Atlantis! Over–the–top begins with "under the sea" with Aquaventure, a 141–acre water park with 18 thrilling slides; ruins and coral to snorkel; swimmable 7 million–gallon Dolphin Cay; and 14 lagoons filled with over 50,000 creatures representing over 250 marine species, creating one of the world's largest open–air marine habitats. The experience on land is no less impressive, with 21 restaurants—including celebrity chef–helmed ones—and 19 bars and lounges, giant casino, and six Atlantis resorts to rest your head in.

Venetian & Palazzo Resort Hotel & Casino

In a city of excess, this resort pair still manages to shine amid the bright lights. All–suite accommodations here are nearly double the size of the average room in Vegas, starting at 650 square feet to start your trip right. An incredible 15 celebrity chef restaurants, including names like Emeril, Batali, Puck, Boulud, and Keller, headline a total of 38 dining options, and if fortune favors you in their humongous casino, over 160 international luxury brands can be shopped from a gondola ride through its grounds.

Hard Rock Riviera Maya

"Living large" is how rockers roll, and this resort takes that lifestyle seriously. Home of the largest spa in Mexico with a jaw–dropping 75 treatment rooms, its 1,264 rooms are split into adults–only and family sides, convenient to two massive pools with a splash park and waterfall, full gym and even a Yoga Temple. The star treatments even starts young with the Little Big Club™ and a Music Lab, creating megastars in this megaresort.

Sandals Grande Riviera Beach & Villa Golf Resort

This isn't just a resort–it's three entire distinctive villages built on over 100 acres. Stay at the beach club, garden paradise, or plantation–style Great House on the mountaintop, and play at a whopping 16 restaurants, ten bars, and a jaw–dropping 105 pools and 22 whirlpools–many of them private. Their saying that "Love Is All You Need" is definitely true when this is the luxury that's included.

RIU Hotels & Resorts

When six entire resorts—including Riu Palace Mexico, Riu Palace Riviera Maya, Riu Playacar, and Riu Yucatan—take over part of prime Playa del Carmen beachfront, there's no denying its mega–status. Shop all day or lay on the beach, then swap flip–flops for dancing shoes at Pacha nightclub. Eat your way through over 30 restaurants and buffets, wait half an hour, then swim in nearly a dozen pools. Big? You betcha.

Universal Orlando Resorts

When you can take a starring role in some of the biggest movies and TV shows ever created at Universal Studios, ride into Universal's Islands of Adventure, get the gang Wet 'n Wild at the water park, then find yourself ending the day with shopping, live music and out–of–this–world restaurants at Universal CityWalk, you know you're at a resort destination huge in both size and wonder. Themed on–site hotels, unique in their own ways, do even more to transport you to an entire universe of fun.
