1st All-Inclusive Vacation --- Where to Go???
Hi there. Four of us will be taking our 1st All-Inclusive vacation
in February of 2005. We have no idea where to go, but do know what we're looking for........... 1, A wide variety of food choices, preferable with a number of different restaurants on site. 2. Night life! We're 40 something so no senior citizen resorts quite yet please. 3. A location where there may be the opportunity to venture off resort for one or 2 days to see something interesting in the surrounding area. We are no big into scuba or snorkling, so that is n ot a requirement. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated! Thanks! Paul C. |

I'm wondering why you are focusing on an all inclusive when your
requirements for dining call for more variety than most AI's will provide and your seeming disinterest in recreational activities call for less. |

Have you considered anywhere in the Pocono Mountains?
Maybe one of the Caesar's Pocono Resort's? =============== Comment from Moderator =============== Do these resorts have an all-inclusive option? |

Have you considered Sandals? Unlike a lot of all-inclusives, you can dine
around to other Sandals in the area. In Montego Bay about 12 dining options at 3 resorts, in Ocho Rios, 8 between the two Sandals plus exchange privileges at 2 Beaches, and in Negril exchange priveledges between the 2 Beaches. Also, Sandals is building a new Sandals, from the ground up, that is to be opened December 2004 on the southern side of the island. It looks like it is going to be fabulous. It is called Whitehouse. Check it out on their website at: http://www.sandals.com/general/whitehouse-intro.cfm# At St. Lucia you have 3 Sandals exchange privileges and at least 12 restaurants between the three. In the Bahamas the Sandals there has 7 restaurants. All Sandals have a flavor of their own - whether you are active or not. Check out the following website as their are a lot of Sandals people the http://www.tropictravelonline.com/ub...php?category=3 We are experienced Sandals guests (going on #14 this April) who have visited all but Antigua and the new Grand in St. Lucia.

People interested in Sandals should be aware that it has an anti-gay policy, specifically excluding gay couples from going. This is in violation of many laws around the world, with the result that Sandals cannot advertise in many areas. For example, last September the mayor of Londor prohibited advertising by Sandals on the London Underground. Their advertising has also been banned by the BBC for the same reasons. When Sandals tried five years ago to have a promotion advertised on the internet for a sweepstakes to win a vacation for two, the ads were pulled by Microsoft and Yahoo as soon as they became aware of Sandals' discriminatory policies. The history of this event can be read many places on the web, including http://www.wiredstrategeies.com/resort.html. Lots of information is available at http://www.shame.org/detail.html?174.

I've been to the Dominican Republic at the Catalonia Bavaro Beach Resort near Punta Cana (airport there): http://www.rezcenter.com/dominican-r.../POP_CATA.html I liked it. Very international mixture of guests: Canada, Argentina, Spain, Germany even US citizens. They had 4 additional theme restaurants which were included in the "ultra all inclusive". Not too much night life but they had kind of show each night and it is possible to have tours all around the Dominican Republic. But you can hang out in one of the all inclusive bars an have very fine all inclusive cocktails or ice cream or crepe or whatever you want. Wolfgang |
