Music & Dancing

All inclusive resorts aren’t just about fun in the sun. Things also really heat up once the sun goes down. Live music calls guests to the dance floor and the pubs, bars and clubs are open until the wee hours so you are sure to get your fill of good times. Coconut Bay Beach Resort & Spa knows how to get guests moving by mixing Caribbean sounds with country & western nights, jazz musicians and even karaoke. If you’re into the clubbing scene, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana’s Oro Nightclub is the gem of the Caribbean. With top notch service, two levels, light shows and the best DJs in the area, this club is one you won’t want to miss! And, if your moves are a little rusty, many resorts offer dance classes so that you can dust off your steps before the party starts.

Beach Parties

The beach isn’t just for building sand castles and lounging in the sun. After dark, bonfires light up the sky and invite resort guests to kick off their shoes and enjoy the night. Full of delicious local cuisine and the sound of steel drums and starry skies, beach parties are a much-loved staple of resort entertainment. For a truly extravagant experience, visit one of the Sandals Resorts in the Caribbean where they take beach parties up a notch with limbo dancing and fire-eaters.

Fitness Classes

To provide a bit of balance to the exquisite cuisine, decadent desserts and never-ending cocktails you can indulge in during your stay, most all inclusive resorts offer a range of fitness classes and gym facilities. If you’re staying at Couples Swept Away in Jamaica, you should try out their cycling classes! Or, if you’re looking to hit the greens, Catalonia Bavaro Beach, Golf & Casino Resort offers two complimentary golf courses. Build your teamwork skills and get your heart racing with a game of beach soccer at Azul Beach Hotel in Riviera Maya, Mexico! While trudging along on a treadmill might not be your idea of a fun vacation experience, a beach-side yoga class might be enough to inspire you to take home a new fitness routine as a souvenir.

Off-site excursions

Whichever all inclusive property you choose, there is sure to be so much to do that you won’t need to leave the property. But, if your heart is set on exploration, most resorts offer off-site excursions. From discovering ancient ruins to touring cultural sites and doing a bit of shopping, your All Inclusive Outlet Travel expert can assist you with adding pre-reserved tours and excursions to your vacation package.
