In this day and age, have you really been on holiday if you haven’t snapped every moment and shared it with your eagerly awaiting followers? As well as being a great way to show off your fabulous holiday, Instagram also helps us to find some of the most beautiful hotels from around the world.

Though it’s hard to choose, here’s a shortlist of some of our favourite hotels with Instagrammable beauty spots, decor and views.

Planet Hollywood – Cancun, Mexico

Looking for the perfect hotel that looks like something out of a film? Movie-inspired Planet Hollywood in Cancun, Mexico is the place for you! The three pool areas are dotted with perfect pink parasols to shade you from the glorious rays of sunshine. There’s also heaps of in-water entertainment to feature in your Insta pics including a splash park, lazy river and even a FlowRider.

With ten restaurants to choose from, your grid will never dry up from mouth-watering snaps of tasty treats throughout your stay here. You can feast your eyes, and of course your tummy, in an Italian trattoria, steakhouse or Mexican restaurant to name a few.

To really show off, you can choose to upgrade your room to a swim-up club junior suite. There will be plenty of opportunity for getting the perfect profile picture while lounging next to the waters right outside your suite. Grab a fresh cup of coffee as a prop and get yourself ready for an ‘i woke up like this’ shoot.

Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort – Florida, USA

Whether you’re young or old, we could all use a little excitement in our lives and where else would you find heaps of fun other than Universal Studios, Florida?! Universal’ Cabana Bay Beach Resort has a super retro vive and instantly transports you back to the 50s and 60s as you step through the door.

There’s plenty of spots throughout the hotel that will offer you an exciting photo backdrop but one of our ultimate favourites has to be anywhere with great viewpoints of Volcano Bay! Some rooms even have floor to ceiling windows that frame the attraction perfectly!

You can get a free shuttle to Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure, Universal’s Volcano Bay and the Universal CityWalk entertainment complex too which means even more fantastically themed photo opportunities await! Some attractions also offer fantastic action shots mid ride, so be sure to pull your best adrenaline junkie face.
