The best holidays my late wife and I had were usually B&B in a good hotel in somewhere like Corfu or the Caribbean. Always hired a car so we could really explore the local area

I have never been All Inclusive and never will. When I am away I want to be out and about and only go to Hotel for a meal or to sleep.

The best all inclusive was Cuba. At most inclusives the spirits are local but in Cuba I could get Jamesons at no extra. I've never been a drinker but all inclusives seems to attract the dedicated.

I think it depends on two factors................If you are a family with kids then it is good value for money.

and it depends where you are,....some places are not particularly safe so are best enclosed into a complex.

We tend to do cruises now and all inclusive is definitely an option. Not big drinkers now, so tend to pay as you go on more British based lines, roughly pub prices and all inclusive on the more expensively priced US ships, $15+ per drink! We do the maths, way up the itinerary and how many sea days, then book.
