Exploring the best virtual getaway spots within Nintendo Switch games, each offering unique experiences and adventures for players looking for an in-game escape.


Discover Virtual Vacation Gems on the Nintendo Switch

In a whimsical approach to escaping reality, a virtual travel and tourist company on the Nintendo Switch, NL Destinations, offers a variety of imaginative vacation spots that exist within the many worlds of Switch games. This service, founded under rather humorous and certainly fictitious circumstances, claims to be a leading authority in virtual holiday planning, albeit without any real customers or verifiable reviews.

As summer approaches, it's the perfect time to plan your next digital getaway. NL Destinations has compiled a list of top vacation picks for every type of virtual traveler. From exploring an underwater utopia to staying in a haunted hotel, these experiences promise thrills, relaxation, and unique adventures.

First up is the underwater city of Rapture from "Bioshock," boasting an art deco aesthetic and oceanic views. Here, visitors can enjoy fantastical abilities granted by Plasmids, though it comes with a disclaimer about potential hazards—including the menacing Big Daddies and Little Sisters.

The next recommendation is "The Last Resort" from "Luigi's Mansion 3," a haunted hotel with themed floors and a ghostly ambiance. Despite the frights that may come with ghost sightings, the hotel assures guests of their safety—a claim that might require a suspension of disbelief.

For those drawn to the subterranean allure of nature, "Hollow Knight's" Forgotten Crossroads offers a world teeming with challenges and eerie beauty. However, be warned that this destination won't be kind to those who get lost easily.

The Great Plateau in "Zelda: Breath of the Wild" caters to lovers of the great outdoors. With breathtaking landscapes free of the game's more perilous creatures, adventurers can hunt, gather, and cook to their heart's content, as long as they can withstand the chilly elements.

For science fiction fans, Sevastopol Station from "Alien: Isolation" delivers a chilling spacefaring experience on a station filled with flickering lights and tight corridors. While the Seegson androids may offer assistance, there's also a formidable alien lurking around, making this vacation spot not for the faint of heart.

Fans of the Wild West can mosey on down to McFarlane Ranch in "Red Dead Redemption," complete with livestock and rustic charm. Safety concerns are humorously suggested, advising guests to dodge bandits' lassos to enjoy their stay.

In a dramatic change of climate, Phendrana Drifts from "Metroid Prime Remastered" provides an icy retreat for those who desire an arctic adventure. Visitors should pack their arm cannons and be ready for combat in this thrilling locale.

Straying from the perilous, Windmill Hills in "Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze" is a gentle respite with a soft breeze and calm environment. That said, there may still be a fiery surprise waiting for the unwary traveler.

The Spencer Mansion from the original "Resident Evil" ups the ante for luxury seeking travelers, regardless of the lurking undead. This opulent, eerie mansion offers a horror-filled twist to the usual holiday cottage, with survival adding to the thrill of the stay.

Tokyo's Café LeBlanc from "Persona 5 Royal" provides a small but authentic Japanese experience with homemade food and access to the city's sights. Although the environment might undergo some unexpected changes, it's part of the charm of this cozy destination.

Lastly, Ding Dong Dell from "Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch" brings a vibrant cityscape, complete with fantastical residents and sunny skies. And for those who love culinary pleasures, the Luncheon Kingdom from "Super Mario Odyssey" offers a delightful and whimsical food-themed setting.

This roundup of Nintendo Switch's finest virtual destinations is a testament to the creativity and diversity of gaming worlds. While these destinations may not exist in reality, they provide players with an expansive range of experiences and locales to explore from the comfort of their own home. From chillingly suspenseful to delightfully whimsical, each game promises to transport players to an in-game vacation that's safe, engaging, and endlessly entertaining. Whether seeking adventure, relaxation, or a touch of horror, there is a virtual getaway for every type of gamer. So why not dive in and explore these immersive virtual worlds that await within the realm of the Nintendo Switch?
