Global hospitality company IHG has planted a new flag on the Treasure Coast with Voco Sandpiper All-Inclusive Resort, now open in Port St. Lucie along the St. Lucie River. The hotel-IHG's first all-inclusive stay in the United States-debuted following a $50 million renovation that brought seven bars and restaurants, a waterfront infinity pool, and private marina access to the riverfront location.

I'll admit I'm a bit of a travel snob and have always avoided big all-inclusive resorts. I assumed they'd be packed with people getting drunk on all-you-can-sip cocktails by 10 a.m. and crowding over buffets of subpar food. However, when my family needed a hotel for a few days in Montego Bay, a large all-inclusive resort was my only option.
