The term all-inclusive may give rise to thoughts of poor quality hotels, mediocre food and noisy twenty-somethings. However, over the years these all-inclusive hotels have multiplied in number all over the world, often in destinations blessed with sun. Some destinations have even become specialists in the domain, the Sharm el Sheikh for instance. All-inclusive tariffs, perfect for taking control of your budget, can be found at prices as low as £400 per person leaving from London, perhaps even less if you shop around, and other destinations, particularly those in Spain, can be found for much less. As soon as you arrive, your wallet will also be on holiday as (almost) everything is factored into the price: flights and accommodation of course, but also excursions, meals, drinks, activities and in some establishments even the massages! It is a weight off one's shoulders to know that you won't have to fork out for a cocktail round the pool, even if these aren't made from branded juice or mixers. Be careful however to check what exactly is included in your package: certain resorts offer all-inclusives to a lesser degree, for example, not including alcoholic drinks?
