Don't know, never done it, always rolled our own.
Crashed a few in Jamaica, just to see what it was like, and were'nt impressed.
Just curious, because in BN time, if there are no responses in over an hour there must be a shortage of members that have all-inclusives to recommend.
Then again maybe it's just a Sunday thing.

I recommend the Dominican Republic and anything all inclusive in the Puerto Plata area...go for 4 stars or better and you'll have a great time. Also not so expensive either. Been there 4 years in a row and am heading back there in 11 days!!!

Check out theGolden Parnasuss, Cancun, it's small, all-inclusive,adults only,great beach tiki-bar,and good food. I brought a few mix cd's that Fonz at the tiki-bar liked ,so at 10AM every morning "Thank god the Tiki Bar is open" actually opened the bar!

IMHO, if you want to spend about double the cost of an island all-inclusive, the
PERFECT PH VACATION is a crewed sailboat charter. They are all-inclusive, with a captain and a cook, and you get to visit all the famous bars in the islands. I've been seriously looking at this for our 25th anniversary. Charter rates for 2 start in the $4,000-5,000 range, plus airfare. If you have friends that would like to go the cost really drops as you average out the minor cost increases per person (typically $500-1,000 each extra person). I can't Wait!!!
You can sometimes book a single cabin on a larger yacht.
Here's a good place to start:

If you are a true parrothead, why not St. Barts? There is always a good chance Jimmy could be there at that time of year (check his schedule). We always go in June and have missed him by a few days a few times...plus the visit to Autour Du Roche and Le Select are well worth the trip. You will not find a more relaxed and special island, and I wouldn't worry about the all inclusive part. There are 85 special restaurants on this 8 sq. mile rock and plenty of take out options as well as private chefs for your villa dinners. There is a great group of regulars who always go in June and you would have a great time. Check out St. Barts Online's forums.....
Thank you!
