>> Hey it’s Kaysha with Travel Lushes. I just landed here in Costa Rica and I’m headed
to an all-inclusive resort. So throughout my stay I’ll tell you what the benefits
are of staying at a resort so for your next vacation you can choose whether or not an
all-inclusive would be right for you.

We travel lushes love to eat! All-inclusive resorts provide unlimited food and beverage
during your stay. It even covers gratuities. Because of this, we refer to these resorts
as a home base. You can stay at the hotel and eat there or you can venture into the
country for authentic local cuisine. We usually take advantage of the resort for breakfast
and dinner and eat with the locals for lunch. In some countries, food and drinks are much
more expensive than it is stateside so staying on the resort will save you money in the long
run. Figure out what works for you and enjoy your trip.
When it comes to bills, we don?t like surprises. This is why we love all-inclusive resorts.
What you were quoted before the trip is what you?ll pay after the trip. There are some
expenses that can be charged to the room, so be mindful when you do certain activities,
but for the most part the quote you received when you book the room is the price you will
pay when you leave.
Traveling with children? All-inclusive resorts have activities for your little ones. From
playrooms to time spent outside; this service gives you some adult time.
Another great benefit of all-inclusive resorts is that activities are included. They have
water aerobics, snorkeling, and right now, I?m about to take a bike ride with my tour
guide, Michael.
There are plenty of activities on the resort, but you may want to participate in an activity
that?s not sponsored by the hotel. Do whatever you?d like to do while traveling, but be mindful
that those activities are an additional expensive. Have fun!
For some folks, venturing outside of the resort can be intimidating. Most resorts have great
security; you?ll be safe on the resort so relax and enjoy your time on another continent.
There you have it! The appeal of all-inclusive resorts is having everything on hand. But,
no matter where you decide to stay, enjoy your adventure.
