Thread: Looking for best all inclusive Caribbean resort

2 preteen boys? How large a resort do you want? Playa Del Carmen has some recent beach issues, but most Riv Maya beaches are good. I'd be poking around here:

Airline discounts won't be important. You can cross reference later w/booking sites.
Many direct res # can give you generous discounts.
What do you all like to do? I read beach/pool. Food, excursions, etc?

Our faves have been Hacienda Tres Rios (built-in reserve w/activities) and Villa Del Palmar (washer/dryer). Neither have greatest beach but HTR is because of 3 rivers at one point but has lots of other water activities. VDP is right by the ferry to Isla Mujeres for day trip.
There are so many resorts--many are not to our liking--too large or poor food (as in buffets). Your head will 'swim' once you go to tripadvisor--it's full of initials and more...
Good luck!
