Current Events > Agree or Disagree: All inclusive resorts = Most boring type of vacation

(+) Yeah! (+)

I dont even get why people like going to them in Mexico and can stay the whole vacation in the resort. Its the most boring type of vacation.

Id rather go outside the resort and explore the country, check out the tourist attract, and find the local places to eat there (instead of the resort buffets)

It really all depends on what type of person you are, and what you're looking for in a vacation.

Some just want to "shut down" for a few days. Not worry about who's cooking dinner, who's doing laundry, who's going to cover their work.

Other's look for adventures and thrills.

Counter point to your OP, some people don't want to have that feeling of needing "a vacation after their vacation" becasue their actual vacation was spend on their feet or at the mercy of the clock because events and excursions were at certain times.

Disagree. Just went on a 2 week cruise and it was awesome.

It's definitely good for shorter vacations where you won't get to explore much. But I only do those to places I've been to before.

Ah, it's that time for TC's annual "I hate beach resort vacations" topic? Time flies

Yeah, but the cartels..

Deny, especially if you're in a beautiful area and just want to enjoy the nice weather.

Ive only been to one of these. We didnt like it because the food was mediocre and you could tell they were trying to slow you down at the bars.

D, lol.

You had pretty dang cool parents if you legit think resorts are as boring as it gets.

We took vacations to, like, Tennessee and shit.

If that was good enough, you never even need to go on vacation in the first place

Truly rich and wealthy people would not be at all inclusive resorts. Trust me. The clientele there is more normal than you think.

To be honest, id rather go to Tennessee

All inclusive resorts really arent my thing. I only went to them before to make the family happy but I hated the whole trip.

D, but only because cruises exist.

^cruises are better because at least I can explore the cities where the ship stops

cant do that staying in a Mexico all inclusive

Tis about that time

Deny. I feel like when I go on vacation I want to do nothing which is why resorts would likely be my ideal vacation. My family did the whole "let's have a crazy itinerary and do a bunch of shit every day" and I got done with the vacation and I felt exhausted instead of relaxed.

Ive already been to two of them in Cancun and one in Puerto Vallarta and these ones are some of the best rated ones that I stayed at

Theyre all not my thing

Nah resorts are based. They actually feel like a vacation. Walking around somewhere else for hours a day and taking pictures of monuments or whatever is quite un-vacation like
