#all-inclusive

As a travel planner, I regularly stay at all-inclusive resorts and book luxury trips for my clients. All-inclusive vacations can be complicated to book, and many travelers make mistakes along the way. Booking the cheapest room, requesting an ocean view, and always bringing kids isn't the way to go. As a travel planner at Marvelous Mouse Travels, one of my areas of expertise is booking all-inclusive vacations.

For travelers seeking flexibility and rewards, IHG Hotels & Resorts is offering 25% off stays for members and 20% for non-members, along with the chance to earn up to 5,000 IHG Rewards points per stay.

When booking that warm-weather winter vacation, where you stay is paramount to snowbird success: You're looking for a sun-drenched slice of paradise where you don't have to think about much else besides still or sparkling, beach or pool. The hotels on this list-dotting temperate locations from Antigua to the Maldives -each offer something for everyone, whether that's all-inclusivity, proximity to nature, or luxe spa treatments.

The Tangerine Beach Hotel offers an all-inclusive stay with meals, drinks, daily entertainment, and excursions, situated on Sri Lanka's idyllic South Western coast.

Boarding a cruise ship might seem glamorous, but hidden charges can spoil the experience. All-inclusive cruises eliminate stress over extra fees, allowing travelers to enjoy their journey fully.
