Tourists are flocking to all-inclusive resorts in the Mexican Caribbean beach resort destination of Cancun for an upcoming vacation getaway.
In fact, they are so in demand that recently they took the top five slots in the Funjet traveler booking list.
Resorts in Demand
All-inclusive resorts in Cancun are actually growing in popularity among travelers to Cancun and the Mexican Caribbean.
Once travelers get past the initial sticker shock of the nightly rate, they may find that the price is actually fair when all of the costs of a vacation getaway are factored in the price.
Prices have been on the rise in Cancun for everything from dining experiences and nightlife to the cost of airport transfers.
Many of the all-inclusive resorts in Cancun offer all these amenities and more at one convenient fixed price.
That’s why several of the resorts made the top ten Funjet traveler list.
Top Travelers All Inclusives
Five all-inclusive resorts in Cancun recently made the top ten most requested resorts in the world by Funjet, a tour operator with over 40 years of experience specializing in Mexico vacation packages.
Riu Caribe
The Riu Caribe is a tourist favorite that made the Funjet top ten list.
The Cancun beachfront favorite hosts more than 500 guest rooms in an all-inclusive format and was recently renovated in the summer of last year.
It is not only a good family-style resort, but it also has special-themed parties and special adults-only events.

What Travelers Need to Know
Before making the final decision between a limited-service hotel and all-inclusive resort vacation in Cancun, they should create a budget of all of their expected costs and then compare that with the prices of all-inclusive resorts.
While the prices initially may seem very high or exorbitant, travelers may actually find that they provide a pretty compelling experience for visitors.
However, tourists should be willing to deal with many of the restrictions that can make all-inclusive resorts a good value.
That includes eating most, if not all, meals in the resort restaurants and spending a considerable amount of time enjoying the amenities on the property.
If a traveler would prefer to wander around, eat in local restaurants, and get a more local perspective on Cancun and the Mexican Caribbean, an all-inclusive resort may not be the best choice for a good vacation getaway value.
