The best all inclusive hotels you need to know about

14 November, 2023 / words by Nancy Lova

How about less bother and more control over your spending for your next holiday? We all know it’s far too easy to lose ourselves with the budget when on vacation, everything becomes a well deserved treat and before you know it, you return home to a monster of a bank statement. And not only that, it’s sometimes tricky to figure out where to eat for every breakfast, lunch and dinner! So put a cost cap on your trip with one of these hotels that’s got everything covered from breakfast to drinks by the pool.

Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle, Thailand

For the adventurous looking to reconnect with nature, an all inclusive stay on the edge of Thailand awaits. Immerse yourself in an abundant lush bamboo forest with endless views and sights of elephants. A stay at the Four Seasons’ luxurious tented camp really has it all and goes far beyond just a few meals. With a variety of all-inclusive options to select, you can enjoy both western and traditional Thai, Laotian and Burmese cuisines as well as selected alcohol and even a spa treatment per person! Here you’ll have a remarkable experience where you can feel refreshed and rejuvenated through a 90-minute treatment and soak up the culture with excursions to Laos and Myanmar. That’s the all-inclusive I’m talking about.

Fairmont Mayakoba, Mexico

Get me to Mexico and straight into Fairmont Mayakoba. A star-studded Mayan retreat sitting on 594 acres of thick tropical jungle including a beach club with oceanfront views, a beauty salon, a fitness club and an incredible 12 restaurants to choose from so there’s really no problem if travelling with a fussy eater, there are literally 12 to choose from and all included in an all-inclusive plan! Fairmont Mayakoba offers a truly relaxing stay with moments of bliss found all around the property from calm turquoise waters and white sands to beautiful lagoons. Rest and unwind as much as you like with multiple opportunities to bask poolside and as the resort is enveloped by an abundance of nature, you can admire local wild life and tour the mangroves.

Majestic Elegance Punta Cana

A luxurious experience for all of the family. Forget your troubles at the door and have the dreamiest Caribbean vacation at Majestic Elegance Punta Cana. Set along Playa Bávaro, this resort provides guests breathtaking landscapes, unspoilt beaches and a tailor-made first class service whenever needed. Take part in water sports, tennis or a spot of golf, if you’ve got teens then there’s an entire game area to keep them busy and once you’re all tired and ready to slow the day down then choose from 7 restaurants to feast upon delicious local cuisines and 11 bars for the adults to sip on a cocktail or two.

Daios Cove, Crete

Fulfil your needs at Daios Cove in Crete, an idyllic resort of stone-built villas, palm trees, a glittering spa to replenish your soul and a luxe infinity pool overlooking the breath-taking Vathi Bay. All rooms here are stunning whether you choose from a Deluxe Sea View room with an individual pool or a Two Bedroom Wellness Villa with sea view and your very own Finnish Sauna! 129 private plunge pools gives plenty of room for water activities. Crete is also home to remarkable diving experiences and Dajos Cove provides plenty of opportunities to marvel at marine life and take part in water sports such as windsurfing and water-skiing. 6 restaurants along with an award winning bar means you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining and if you want to make things extra special then upgrade to the Residents Club where you can enjoy extra perks including unlimited room service.

Hillside Beach Club

Turkey has long been a favourite for those looking for relaxing getaways where you don’t have to lift a finger and why not, as it’s home to some of the most delightful all-inclusive hotels. In Fethiye resides Hillside Beach Club, an insanely beautiful hotel right on the coast of the Turquoise Coast effortlessly delivering all that you desire from an all-inclusive holiday. Three beaches, a pool with uninterrupted sea views, three restaurants, one with seafront dining and music and dancing at night, there’s much to enjoy here but should you wish to venture out then hire a car to explore the neighbouring towns and explore more of the beauty that is the Turkish Riviera.
