All inclusive resort for romantics
 
We would like an all-inclusive resort for our honeymoon. We need a beautiful beach but I want to have activities to do either at the resort or nearby. Suggestions?

Well, this is the Mexican Caribbean. Look into Royal Hideaway. Absolutely upscale, gourmet food, beautiful beach, lots of tours to take to ruins, etc. A great value for your money.

Without question, Couples Swept Away Negril meets your requirements to a "T".
One of the most beautiful beaches in the world, lots of watersports and activities and "side trips" to make.

I have to second the Royal Hideaway Resort. It is very romantic and the service is topnotch. Plus there a lot of things to do nearby, Tulum, Xel-Ha, etc. and also Chichen Itza (which is about a 3 hr. trip each way but well worth it!) You definitely won't be disappointed! -Susan

Yes, look at Couples Swept Away, Couples Negril and Sandals Negril. Compare the prices and activities. They all would satisfy what you requested.

Definitely look into Royal Hideaway! It is truly amazing, and I think it is a better choice than any Sandals in the world. I hear Couples is nice, but I don't think it's as upscale as Royal Hideaway. Royal Hideaway is said to be one of the best all-inlusive resorts in the world, and trust me, it shows!

We loved the Harmony Club in Bermuda.

If beach is important to you, it is hard to beat Couples Swept Away. I have been there twice and can say that I saw 14 days of perfect beach - calm, blue, white sand, huge. The beaches in Anguilla are beautiful too but we had a lot of wind when we were there so the water was churned up and there was a lot of blowing sand.

While I agree that Royal Hideaway is lovely, you might also want to consider the following mexican hotels some of which offer inclusive packages:
Maroma, Paraiso de la Bonita, or Ikal del Mar (everyone has their own pool).
