All Inclusive Vacations: TripAdisor Picks The Best Of 2013
All Inclusive Vacations: TripAdisor Picks The Best Of 2013
The website TripAdvisor has published its annual list of the Top Ten Best All-Inclusive Resorts and this year all ten winners were from the Dominican Republic, Caribbean, and Mexico. The rankings were determined by customer reviews regarding their satisfaction with the hotels.
As a nation, Mexico took five of the top ten slots including the winning resort called Iberostar Grand Hotel Paraiso which is located at Playa de Carmen. The lovely six story hotel has its own pool with immediate access to large soft sandy beaches and warm sea water. Next on the list is one which Americans aren’t going to be able to take advantage of for the time being and it’s Cuba’s Royalton Cayo Santa Maria. Third on the list was The Beloved Hotel along the Playa Mujeres beach in Cancun, Mexico. Jamaica made the list with Iberostar Grand Rose Hall in Montenegro. In fifth place was Excellence Playa Mujeres in Cancun Mexico. This hotel was forged alongside the sand and palm trees.
“All-inclusive resorts are an outstanding option for travelers who want an all-in-one vacation solution, and we’re thrilled to highlight some of the finest around the world,” said Barbara Messing, chief marketing officer for TripAdvisor. “For those considering a no-hassle stay that provides the convenience of having almost everything you need on property and included in the price, travelers suggest these amazing properties.”
It should be noted that TripAdvisor has experienced their share of legal woes given their hotel reviews were once published with the tag line “reviews you can trust”. It turns out that some of the reviews were factually incorrect.
