Why Choose an All Inclusive Holiday

What is supposed to be a relaxing break away can easily turn more expensive and stressful than it should be, especially when you need to worry about paying for your flights, accommodation and transport, as well as your meals, drinks and entertainment, all from completely different providers.

That is why so many people opt for the simplicity of paying for everything all at once. The idea of a vacation where you never once have to reach for your wallet or purse, is an undeniably appealing one! Not only does it make it very easy to budget for your break, it also gives you the feeling of luxury and being pampered while you enjoy free meals and drinks on your trip away.

What To Expect

Different travel agencies will of course offer different variations on what you can get from an all inclusive holiday. While some companies will lavish you with lots of free extras (for example, some companies include fun activities like sports, diving and snorkeling in their packages), other agencies will simply offer the minimum requirements of a place to stay and food to eat during your trip.

Regardless which travel agency you book with, you can usually always expect the following to be included in your holiday:

  • Accommodation
  • Meals
  • Drinks

The following extras are also often available with many package holidays:

  • Flights and Transfers
  • Entertainment and Outings
  • Facilities (such as swimming pool, tennis courts, spa, etc.)

The “Village-style” Resort

Package holidays set in a “village-style” resort are becoming increasingly popular among holiday-goers, especially in places like the Carribean and on tropical islands in the Indian Ocean (such as the Seychelles or the Maldives). These are usually large, purpose-built, self-contained resorts, featuring apartments, a hotel, a supermarket, several bars, restaurants and entertainment venues and private beaches.

Check all the Details

Before you book an all inclusive holiday you should always check the full details of what is included in the overall price. You do not want to arrive at your destination to discover that you are not entitled to breakfast each morning, or that transport to and from the hotel is not included in the overall price.

Book from a Reputable Travel Agency

You should also always choose to book from a reputable travel dealer, and check the internet for reviews and comments from people who have been there and done the same thing before.

Local Drinks Only

In distant resorts like in the Carribean or Europe, it is worth bearing in mind that because of the costs associated with importing, purchasing the local alcoholic drink will always be less expensive than the brands you drink at home. That is why many holiday packages only include free local drinks. This can be good as it lets you sample the local culture on your all inclusive holiday.
