Food, drinks and the room are covered. Flights, airport transfers, tips, spa treatments, excursions, premium drinks and club-level areas usually cost extra. Use the calculator to add them up.
Prices drop after Easter and stay lower through the fall. Those months overlap with hurricane season, so buy travel insurance and choose a flexible rate.
Tips are often included, but most guests still tip housekeeping, bartenders and servers a few dollars a day. Our calculator assumes $10 per room per day.
Adults-only resorts are quieter at the pool and in restaurants. Family resorts have kids' clubs and waterparks and tend to be livelier. Use the filters to see each type.
