all inclusive resorts in the US
 
I am just wondering if anybody knows of any all-inclusive resorts in the continental US, other than Club Med?

The only one I can think of is Little Palm Island. I havenever been but someday I hope to. It sounds incredable.

Craig Dec 17th, 2002 07:22 AM

Its in the Florida Keys and is very exclusive.

Bing Dec 17th, 2002 07:38 AM

Not exclusive but very expensive.

Little Palm Island is a fine choice as long as you are not looking for something for children too. They do not allow children under the age of 16.

The best all inclusive resort in the Southeast is by far the Cloister in Southeast Georgia. The do have an extensive website. There are family, spa and golf packages available. They do have a camp Cloister for kids which is similar to the Ritz Kids Program. It is world class. The staff is fantastic. You can not get better service.

Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz, NY is all-inclusive. <BR><BR>A mini-review: The grounds are beautiful, the dinners are excellent, buffet breakfasts and lunches are so-so, and the rooms are kind of ho-hum for the $$$$ you pay. In the warm weather there is golf, swimming, tennis and boating among other things, and in the winter there is an ice-skating pavillion. There are some incredible hiking trails!

I'd like to hear more about Little Palm Island. <BR><BR>A friend and I were just talking about resorts that don't allow children for possible vacation ideas. She's got 3 kids and she and her husband like to take a vacation once a year without the kids. The last thing they want to do is leave their kids home and then have to put up with other people's kids the whole time - LOL.

Are the all-inclusives listed above &quot;true&quot; all-inclusives? Meaning they include all food and all drinks - no matter what? Just wondering cuz I heard in the past there were no &quot;true&quot; all-inclusives in the U.S. Many may include food but not drinks.

In New Hampshire I can think of two. The Balsams in Dixville Notch, and the Mt. Washington Hotel in Bretton Woods. Both include meals, use of all the sports facilities (winter and not winter). Both very expensive!

The Balsam's or Mohonk doesn't include alcoholic drinks and tips, which may be what Theresa means when she's looking for a true all-inclusive like you'll find in the caribbean. I'm pretty sure the Cloisters doesn't either.<BR><BR>

The Point resort in the Adirondacks is all inclusive. You will pay about $1000 per night(min), and no kids allowed, but only 22 people max staying at the resort at all times. Top shelf liquor, activites, three meals a day &amp; snacks all included in the price.

There is also Twin Farms in Barnard, Vermont. Price per couple per night is in the $1,200.00 range. Cha-ching!<BR><BR>www.twinfarms.com
