peeeete we went all inclusive for our honeymoon in mexico. we loved the absolute freedom of lying at the pool and getting drinks all day without even thinking of money just gave tips to the guys. to be honest it was well worth it and i'd love to go on another trip like this. it works well in the fancy resorts in places like mexico because you're not really leaving the 'compound' much and as everyone has pointed out you'll be lolling at the pool but will be knackered. we had 5 restaurants to choose from so it's not like we were going to the same one every night. it was secrets capri by the way in mexico and we loved it. the all inclusvie made the holiday more relaxing and made us feel more pampered BUT make sure you read the reviews of the place before deciding
