I Tried an All-Inclusive Resort. Was It Better Than Cruising?

Published October 17, 2026


Description

After nearly 20 years of cruising, I finally tried a five-star all-inclusive resort — and it made me question whether cruising is still the better vacation.

In this video, I compare cruising vs. all-inclusive resorts after experiencing my first five-star all-inclusive in Cancun. There was a huge difference between a cruise and an all-inclusive resort, including rooms, pools, beaches, food, drinks, entertainment, activities, extra charges, destinations, convenience, and overall vacation value. I’ll share what surprised me, what the all-inclusive did better, where cruising still wins for me, and why the answer may depend less on which vacation gives you “more” and more on what you actually want from your trip. If you’ve ever wondered whether an all-inclusive resort is better than a cruise, whether it’s time to switch from cruising, or which type of vacation gives you the best experience for your money, this comparison should help you decide.
