The Caribbean offers some of the best all inclusive vacations found anywhere. So far, no definitive reason for the popularity of all inclusive Caribbean vacations has been provided but the facts speak for themselves! One theory suggests it is part of a plan to attract more visitors to the Caribbean; however, there is very little evidence that this is the case.
The most plausible explanation is the fact that for many people who want to travel to these islands, all inclusive Caribbean vacations packages are very good value for money; especially for people that like to know there are few other financial outlays to expect. Every type of vacation and travel package is available so just about anyone’s travel needs can be tailor made to suit them. Some visitors only require flights to the Caribbean as they are visiting relatives; these visitors only require a flight package as their accommodation would have already been arranged.
For the average tourist and his family, an all inclusive Caribbean vacation is the more likely scenario with costs manageable right from the start. Because the tour operators book large numbers of vacations, this is quite likely less expensive than if you tried to book your flight, accommodation and food independently. However, those travelers that are more independent would not arrange a vacation like this no matter how tempting the financial offer. Even after all this time it is surprising how many people do not actually know what an all inclusive vacation actually includes.
Obviously with any vacation package, the room is included in the cost unless you have just specifically booked a flight only. All meals and any additional snacks for example will be included in the cost but that is not necessarily the case with other types of package available; a great deal depends on what sort of vacation is being offered. Even now, some visitors are not sure of the difference between an all inclusive vacation and a full board package.
A full board package will include breakfast lunch and supper, but not drinks, while an all inclusive Caribbean vacation package will include meals and drinks. Another distinction is in the vouchers for meals, entertainment and often trips which are presented by many hotels; this does not normally mean that entertainment, food and events are free at these places, just discounted. For a person or family booked on an all inclusive Caribbean vacation, there is little to pay; they often include dining at restaurants that are not part of the hotel which should create a far more interesting experience.
