Money Talk
Going all-inclusive means paying one price for your holiday – so no need to take any extra cash, unless you want some souvenirs.
Worries over Brexit and exchange rates mean more of us are looking to book an all-in deal this summer, according to travel experts at travelsupermarket.com.
And these trips can save you money, with a seven-night all-inclusive trip to Cor fu in May coming in at under £200 per person.
The top five most affordable allinclusive package destinations are Spain, Morocco, Bulgaria, Turkey and Cor fu.
But before you get packing, here are my top tips on what to check first.
✦ How big is the resort? I went to Cuba on an all-inclusive and there were so many restaurants on site that you could eat at a different one every night. But smaller resorts may mean buffet dining at every meal in the same place.
✦ Are mealtimes fixed, or can you get food and drink around the clock – like a coffee and pastr y if you’re awake at 6am?
✦ If you enjoy a tipple, check which alcoholic drinks are included as it’s often only the local beers, wines and spirits.
✦ Some of the bigger resorts may include watersports, entertainment or short trips as part of the package, but smaller ones may not.
And take a travel mug. Lots of bars ser ve drinks in small plastic cups. With a bigger mug, it saves popping back from the beach – plus you’ve got a lid on it!
