All inclusive? Yes or no?




Redtagvacations.ca allowed us to take two of our favorite trips ever. Both were under 1,000 USD per person. With the US dollar doing well, we booked our trips on this Canadian travel site, taking advantage of our close proximity to Pearson Airport in Toronto, Canada. I’m from Buffalo, NY, my significant other, Canadian. While August was technically considered rainy season in Puerto Vallarta, we had little rain, lots of sun, and an action packed, all inclusive vacation with great food and white table linen service. Occidental Grand Nueva in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico, featured specialty restaurants in addition to the traditional Mexican cuisine. Our favorite was the ceviche restaurant, featuring all sorts of varieties of this fresh seafood dish that we’re not often treated to up north. The resort included activities such as beach yoga, archery, poolside Zumba, billiards and kayaking tours. August was hearing up, and when we returned from our excursions zip lining the mountains of Jalisco, horseback riding up trailers to witness jungle water falls, or swimming beneath natural rock formations to hidden beaches, we were treated with the best margaritas in town.
We returned to Central America for another Redtagvacations.ca vacation, at Occidental Papagayo, which included reliable airfare on West Jet direct to our destination, just as it did the previous year, but this time, we chose Guanacste, Costa Rica. Still under 1,000 per person for an all inclusive stay at a four star resort, we thoroughly enjoyed the mountainous terrain, breathtaking scenery, and local cuisine. After white water rafting the Tenorio River, we headed to Cocoa Beach for some local cuisine. I haven’t been able to replicate to macadamia nut pesto drowning crab legs, shrimp and scallops at Seafood Papagayo, but it’s simply one more reason to return.
