All inclusive question

DH and I are heading to Excellence Riviera Cancun October 13-18 for a wedding.  We are not big drinkers per say and I am really wondering if an AI is worth the money for us.  Bottom catergory room is $1581 for the period we are there.  We plan to go to Tulum, Chitchen Itza and Coba while there as well so we will not be staying on the resort 100% of the time.

 Thoughts?  Any recommendations of a non-AI are welcome too.

  • Exactly what both pps have said. 

    We just got back from Cancun Friday night. We stayed at The Royal in Cancun (AI and adults only) and for us AI was worth it. It was great having drinks brought to us right on the beach (something we don't ge

  • We seem to spend more money on food than anything else while on vacay, so to me, the AI is worth it.  We may do a couple meals out while exploring but for the most part I feel we get what we pay for in the AI if the majority of our meals (and what li
