1. What’s Included?

Confirm what's covered by the all-inclusive package. Most resorts include meals, drinks (including alcohol), and some activities, but specialty dining, excursions, and spa treatments may cost extra.

2. Choose the Right Resort

Resorts vary in atmosphere—family-friendly, couples-only, or luxury options. Ensure it aligns with your preferences.

3. Location Matters

Research the destination to determine the best time to visit, local attractions, and weather conditions.

4. Resort Size and Amenities

Check the size and amenities offered—large resorts might offer more activities but can feel crowded, while smaller resorts may provide a more intimate experience.

5. Hidden Fees

Some resorts charge for premium services (water sports, private dinners, etc.) and expect tips for exceptional service. Always read the fine print.

6. Booking Early or Off-Season

Early booking ensures availability, while off-season deals can offer substantial savings.

By considering these factors, you’ll be well-prepared to choose the right all-inclusive resort that matches your needs and expectations.
