All Inclusive Holiday? Recommendations??

thewools

Howdy all,

Looking for any sort of recommendation / views on an all inlcusive trip.

I went last year with the girlfriend to Sharm El Sheik in Eqypt and was thinking on heading on a somewhat similar trip again. So good weather, free beer and food a must!!

Was thinking Maldives / Tunisia / Morroco / Kenya??? But open to suggestions...

So basically we are looking for an all inclusive package with good weather! In around < 1000 pp too??

Any thoughts?

Cheers...

How long are you looking to go for?
1000 for one or two weeks?
Im heading to the Dominican Republic in August for two weeks all inclusive and its costing me 1300

was thinking about going for away one week, but possibly two weeks - im flexible !

Planning to head away at the end of August / Start of Sepetember

Same, Im going 24th August till the 8th of September.
I would say though If your only going away for the one week I wouldnt pick somewhere too far away.
Otherwise you'll lose time through travelling and will take you longer to get used to time difference... Just my 0.02

Yes was thinking that - but adjusting to the time difference has always only ever affected me on the home trip.

Is there many Irish companies / websites that deal exclusively or minly with all in packages??

I'd recommend twohigs, tailor made packages to suit what you want.

We were looking now at Verandah Resort & Spa in Antigua. One of the smaller Caribbean Islands.

Done a bit of research and hurricanes have rarely hit this region...

But doesnt really worry me - im an optimistic type of guy!!

Prices are reduced during this season but a bargain at the price

Didnt decide fully yet but looks like we will pick this resort. All the reviews on tripadvisor have been great too..

Its its working out at < €900 or so for one week from the UK so we will have to sort out some sort of connecting flight to UK too...

Its all inclusive and looks very tempting from going through all the reviews and photos... the weather may be a bit dodgy at the start of October but things normally start to calm down that time of the year from reports i have read!

I am looking for similar holiday around that time but it quotes me > $3000 all inclusive for 1 week in october per person including flights from UK. How are you getting it so cheap? I have checked out a few resorts in carribean and they are all similarly priced for 1 week all inclusive.

I reg check out the following site and seems to have some great deals.

Some great prices for Kenya, Thailand, Maldives etc... so worth a look around

On a different trend i seen (Bargain Alerts) - many "boardies" are heading away to the Maldives for ~ £600 and booked via markstravel. The prices on screen are including TAX and all the usual extras that most other sites dont reveal until upon payment.

Here is the link for the deal that I hopfully will be booking next week (pay day on Friday )

The Maldives are supposed to be pretty sensational. Also, I have heard that Cuba is amazingly good for all-inclusive. Other places I might pick are Turkey, and the Costa del Sol.
