if you’re not a heavy drinker, do a cruise. if you are like me… all-inclusive is the way to go. if money is an issue, try some place like punta cana. its really nice there, and generally less expensive than the other islands, or mecixo is always a good time. call A&B travel, they run charters to all inclusive joints year round ---

I think for my last Cancun trip, it came out to 1500/person. That included the expenses to drive up from Rochester to Toronto, a night in the hotel there, and then a 6am charter flight right to cancun and travel from the airport to the hotel which was all booked for us. We stayed at a really nice hotel that was huge, on site club, bars were open almost all day from like 7am - 3am. IT was called the Ibuerostar or something right in Playa Del Carmen (15 min from Cancun). I have also stayed at the Gala Resort in the same place which was nice. The food was great and they served it for about 3 hours a day, 3 times a day. If you made reservations, you can also go to a nice sit down place that was on the hotel grounds for dinner that was also all inclusive. The bars were great. All over. Lobby, By the pool, by the beach, etc. I am looking to go again in December or next year sometime to get away. If you are really big partyers/drinkers, they have buses that go into the heart of cancun with open bar wirstbands and such cheap too. The hotel had all types of people from everywhere and all different ages. Games in the pool, SCUBA trips, aerobics. ---

lol he’s right…if you want to go on vaca and get trashed every night - a cruise is a no go. but if you want to relax, see some cool places for a cheap price, eat whatever you want at any time, and play bingo for 40 bucks some night - 🙂 cruise i’ll be taking my 2nd one in february…mmm yes ---
