Reasons You Should Travel to an All Inclusive Resort
Posted January 22, 2009 , trackbackI have finally gotten around to typing something up after a couple days of extreme relaxation in the sun. If there’s one thing I love about saving money is that it provides me with more money for what I truly enjoy in life. Yes I know that sounds like an oxymoron but hear me out. The point of budgeting and saving for me is to have enough money for the future, while living a decent lifestyle at the present. By saving money by avoiding random nights out in the city (which we all know is ridiculously over priced) it provides me with more money to travel down south during a horrendous Canadian snow storm.
Now before you ask where this whole rant is coming from, it stems from the fact that before I left numerous people asked me why I’m “wasting” money on another vacation. This is a question that I get asked all too often. I have been debating the reason(s) in my head and I decided to make a post out of it. Below are reasons why you should go on vacation to an all inclusive resort.
1. Relaxation. I don’t know about you but when I go down south I do not do anything besides lay around all day in the sun and drink at night. I may go into town or check out some local stuff but I do not perform any tasks that require a lot of energy. I’ll take a bad day on the beach over a good day at the office any time.
2. Recharge. Most of us live extremely busy lives, whether you are a full time student, full time employee, soccer mom, parent or anything else there is a good chance to need to recharge your batteries. There is no better way to recharge than to have nothing to do all week while the great resort employees cater to all of your needs.
3. Let someone else do the work. Following up on the previous statement, you deserve a break from cooking and cleaning. When you’re at an all inclusive resort there will always someone cooking for you and someone cleaning up your room every single day. Most resorts have buffets 24 hours a day where you can eat pretty much anything you could imagine.
4. Escape from reality. Let’s be honest reality isn’t always the greatest, so why not just get away from it for a week. I just finished exams and have nothing to look forward to but shovelling the driveway and going back to the busy schedule of studying full time while working. Just to escape snow and shovelling snow for a week makes the price of the vacation worth it for me. Yes I know the obvious comeback is that it is only a temporary fix, but I’ll take a week over nothing.
5. Something to look forward to. The whole fall semester I pretty much worked full time and studied full time, so let me tell you having something to look forward to at the end of it all made it feel worth it. The stress that many people feel around exam time can seem very unbearable, so having an end goal or reward waiting for you makes it seem a bit easier.
