All-inclusive help?
 
Hubby and I have a travel voucher to anywhere (within a certain amount of money). We are really wanting to head to the Caribbean, but have no idea where...I have looked at Cancun, Cozumel, Bahamas, Dominican Republic. I am overwhelmed by the choices. We want an all-inclusive, romantic, good food, beautiful beaches. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Swept Away fills the bill.

I think Sandals Antigua would please you for what you are stating you would like. We appreciated the good food and the beaches as well as the trip to the downtown area. It's no exaggeration to say it has it all. If I had a travel voucher, I would be booking there.

Oh,and no children is a plus!

Thank you for the suggestions! I hadn't even really checked into Sandals. If anyone has stayed there, do they have Internet access? We want to keep in touch with our kids while we are gone. I am looking into Cozumel too. Thank you so much...

The Riviera Maya, Mexico is loaded with great AI resorts. Do you want adults only? What is your budget?

Kimberly Apr 1st, 2008 06:02 AM

Yes they do have internet access.

After a whole lot of research, I am seriously considering Secrets or Royal Hideaway in Playa del Carmen area of Mexico. Anybody have experience with them? I have looked at so many places, but I just have a heart for the Mayan culture (probably due to my two Guatemalan kiddos). Any votes one way or the other? :)

They are both wonderful resorts, but be aware that Royal HIdeaway has had some severe beach erosion.
