The number of all-inclusive resorts in Cancun and the Riviera Maya is getting larger every year with the addition of 4-6 new properties all vying for part of the very popular all-inclusive market of vacationers.  As a result, resort brands are having to come up with ways to entice such vacationers; one such way is the expansion of what you get for your all-inclusive stay.

Hotels Xcaret has had enormous success with their All-Fun Inclusive concept where airport transportation, local transportation and admission to select parks and select excursions are now part of your stay without spending any extra money.  I was able to visit famous Chichén Itzá when staying at Hotel Xcaret Mexico with their All-Fun Inclusive concept and didn’t have to spend an extra dime outside of tipping guides and the tour bus driver.  That transfers to potentially huge savings for families and individuals alike who want to maximize their vacation dollars.

Lomas Hospitality has thrown their all-inclusive hats in this ring, so to speak, by introducing their More Inclusive concept to guests staying at the following resorts:

• El Dorado Casitas Royale
• El Dorado Maroma
• El Dorado Royale
• El Dorado Seaside Palms
• El Dorado Seaside Suites
• Generations Riviera Maya
• Hidden Beach Au Naturel
• Palafitos Overwater Bungalows

Here’s what’s included in the More Inclusive package deal:

• free round trip airport transportation
• 3 hr. catamaran and reef snorkel excursion (includes alcohol and snacks)
• waver runner guided tour at Maroma Beach area
• access to Maroma Beach Club–this is located north of the Palafitos Overwater Bungalows.  This includes lounger use, brunch, access to kayaks and paddleboards, swimming at famous Maroma Beach.
• access to Aqua Nick water park at the Nickelodeon resort (this property is directly adjacent to Generations Riviera Maya)
• “Ecoturism Ranch”–this is located by El Dorado Royale where you will interact with rescued animals and swim in a natural spring.  If you’re going to be there you might as well spend a bit extra for the horseback riding experience.
• “Cenote and Underground Expedition”–you will be visiting Aktun Chen to explore underground caves and swim in a cenote.

Now if all of this sounds like a good deal, better hurry up and book one of the participating resorts listed above to add something extra to your vacation experience!
