Plus you can watch as the sun sets on the horizon!

#2 Take a Trip to Corfu Town

If you want to escape the party atmosphere for a couple of hours, then a trip to Corfu Town is an ideal daytrip! Waste away a few hours by wandering around it’s gorgeous cobbled streets that feel like they’ve fallen straight off the pages of a Greek myth. This picturesque town also offers the perfect chance to get that insta snap of you exploring and being cultural. This town also has a distinctly romantic atmosphere, maybe the perfect place for you to take that special someone you met at the club the night before (wink wink).

#4 Get your heart racing with Water Sports

Are you and your mates a bunch of adrenaline junkies? Then it’s time to put on those swimming costumes and hit the sea for some water sporting shenanigans. There are so many different water sports to try; parasailing, flyboarding, jet skiing and more. The real challenge is choosing which ones to do!

#5 Try the Local Dishes

Everyone knows that the best way to cure a hangover is by eating lots of delicious food, and trust us, Greece has no shortage of mouth-watering dishes! A Mediterranean feast is most definitely in order when you visit Kavos, complete with tasty moussaka, grilled meats, fresh fish, juicy olives and creamy feta. It’s like they say, “when in Rome, do what the Romans do!” or in this case, when in Kavos, eat as the Greek do!

#6 Visit Arkoudilas Beach

Want to live your best life like Donna in Mamma Mia? Then visiting the secluded beach of Arkoudilas is a must do! Even though Kavos has its own lovely beach, Arkoudilas takes it to a whole different level. Often referred to as the secret beach, this location will make you feel as like you have your own secluded paradise. It is a bit of a trek as it is a half an hour walk or ten minute car journey from Kavos. However, once you are relaxing on the soft sands and admiring the clear waters, it will be worth it!

#7 Have fun at the Champagne Sessions

Sitting by the pool is the classic way to spend your holiday. So why not elevate it by coming along to Champagne Sessions pool party? This bash has everything; free champagne for one hour, VIP guests and banging tunes. There is truly no better place to spend a sunny day in Kavos.

#8 Make a Splash at Water Fun Park

What is more fun than an obstacle course? An obstacle course at sea of course! This inflatable water park is the best place to have a little friendly competition with your mates. Just try not to fall into the water (or do, it’s half the fun!)

#9 Wear your Best Swimsuit at Baywatch Pool Party

Strut your stuff down at Quayside Village at Party Hard’s iconic Baywatch Pool Party! Can you think of a better way to spend your holiday than with five hours of partying, alcohol and games? Didn’t think so! And you never know, you might even find your very own Zac Efron. Make sure that you secure your place at this party and so many others by purchasing our Ultimate Events Package.

From hangover treatment to hotel amenity

Recreational IV drips may be most famously associated with hangovers, but they can purportedly alleviate a wide range of symptoms, such as dehydration, brain fog, nausea and lethargy. Prices vary by city and type of IV cocktail, but basic drips start at about $150 and can rise fivefold or more.

IV drip clinics have been proliferating around the world. A number of Four Seasons spas — Orlando, Washington D.C., Maui, New York City — offer the amenity. At the Ranch , a wellness retreat in Malibu and New York’s Hudson Valley, guests can receive a drip poolside or in the privacy of their room. Shoppers can indulge in a different kind of retail therapy at Harrod’s in London and the Dubai Mall. Even cruise ships are getting in on the trend.

“This is global,” Kapp said. “I was in Honduras for a convention and they were doing IVs.”

But like pizza and barbecue, there are regional IV preferences.

In Type-A cities like Washington and New York City, travelers often book drips with the hopes of building their immunity and energy reserves. In avant-garde wellness destinations such as Los Angeles and Miami, the treatment is part of the broader longevity movement. In party towns with gaggles of bachelor and bachelorette parties, IV drips are fire hoses pumping out hangover cures.

Rose Salo, founder of San Diego IV , said she became of aware of IV drips as a wedding activity through actress Sofia Vergara, who provided the amenity at her 2015 nuptials. Since then, Salo said the “bougie luxury service” has gone mainstream. She said some groups book the treatment in advance, as part of their travel itinerary. Others call her in desperation, as if she were running an urgent care clinic.

“A lot of times we get bookings on the day-of,” she said. “They’ll wake up feeling like complete garbage and they have another day of shenanigans ahead of them. They’ll call us and say, “Can you have someone here ASAP?'”

At Reviv in the Cosmopolitan resort in Las Vegas , Jesse Schwartz, a registered nurse, recommends a reactive strategy: Do the damage first, then come in for a reboot. The IV bag will have the greatest effect when you are at your lowest point — dehydrated, exhausted, nauseous. After the IV flushes out the toxins, you can jump right back into the Vegas game.

“Once you get the hangover bag or the vitamin boost bag, you can go out and do what you want,” he said.

Los Angeles resident Chris Harmon first tried an IV treatment not to tackle a hangover but to battle a virus. His doctor, who works at Cure Medical in the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village , prescribed a Myers cocktail. The drip did the trick, and he now averages 20 to 30 IVs a year.

The chief operating officer of a drug and alcohol treatment program in Malibu incorporates them into his travels. On a trip to the Sacramento area, he booked an appointment with a well-reviewed physician he found online. During the 45-minute session, he read his Kindle and relaxed while the IV worked its magic. He has also juiced up in his Austin hotel room during a visit with friends.

“It gave me more energy,” Harmon said. “I remember feeling the benefit immediately.”

The mechanics of the drip

Depending on state requirements, you might have to meet with a licensed medical practitioner for a consultation and vitals check before a drip. The treatment is usually administered by a registered nurse or a professional with comparable training. Some conditions could preclude you from treatment, such as pregnancy or certain heart, liver or kidney diseases.

“The reason that we rely very heavily on our medical team is that we sometimes have to turn people away who aren’t great candidates,” said Derek Hofmann, senior spa director at the Four Seasons Resort Orlando. “We err on the side of caution.”

People suffering from trypanophobia will be relieved to know that the nurse uses a needle only briefly, to insert the catheter. The treatment can last from 30 minutes to several hours.

Despite their popularity outside of hospitals, many experts in the medical and wellness fields are wary of IV drips. Beth McGroarty, vice president of research at the Global Wellness Institute, said the injection can lead to serious infections caused by improperly sterilized equipment or unclean skin. A reaction might occur during the treatment or hours to a day later.

In addition, flooding your body with unnecessary vitamins, minerals and other substances can cause toxicity and overwhelm your kidneys. To underscore her point, she cited a Texas woman who died of cardiac arrest last year after an electrolyte injection.

McGroarty also takes issue with the lack of federal oversight. The states regulate the practitioners, though governmental agencies occasionally step in with warnings.

In 2021, the Food and Drug Administration alerted consumers about unsanitary conditions at medical offices and clinics that administer treatments involving compounded drug products such as IV drips. “Contaminated, or otherwise poor quality, compounded drug products can lead to serious patient illnesses, including death,” the agency stated.

For Tofel’s drip, Madison Gnan, a registered nurse, removed the sterile items from their packaging, pulled nine vials of her travel case and made the cocktail to order.

“ I would not go to a place that doesn’t open it in front of you,” Tofel said.

Las Vegas, ground zero for luxury IVs

Though the treatment is commonplace, Las Vegas still feels like the epicenter of IV drips. Like Elvis impersonators, they are inescapable. During a recent stay on the Strip, I would pass clinics on my morning coffee run and during my aimless wanderings in the black hole of casinos. On a search for my hotel’s fitness center, I ended up inside an IV drip lounge.

I get a little wigged out by foreign objects embedded in my skin, but I mustered up the courage to stop by several places and ask my inner elbow: Do we dare?

I started at Ageless Las Vegas in Caesars Palace, which evoked the mysterious and moody atmosphere of a speakeasy. Co-founder Rio Alabastro showed me a red pinprick in her inner elbow. She said she had felt a little sluggish that morning and gave herself a little Get-Up-and-Go, one of the options she recommended to a virgin dripper. On my way out, she handed me a QR code with a discount.

Regenerate Me has three locations on the Strip. The outpost in the Linq Hotel sits across from a Dunkin’, so you can put your drip to work with a doughnut and chemically flavored coffee. The attendant told me most people order a hangover cure. I showed up at lunchtime, so I was either too late or too early for the rush.

The company’s clinic in Planet Hollywood was also empty. I peered through a gap in the treatment room and saw a row of reclining massage chairs arranged around a TV set. It felt like a den in Middle America.

Reviv has more than 80 locations, including the United Kingdom, Dubai and the Cosmopolitan in Vegas. The facility was predominantly furnished in white and emitted a vibe that was more Scandinavian lounge than sanitized hospital. Schwartz, whose arm displayed the mark of an IV, said about two dozen people had dropped in for IV treatments that day. Unless I drank more, I wouldn’t be the next.
