Staying at a resort for your next vacation can be a great way to pamper yourself and enjoy all the amenities that a fine resort has to offer. But did you know that you can also save money with all inclusive resort vacations? You can find these special deals by visiting your travel agent, but you can also find them fairly easily right online if you just look for them.

All inclusive resort vacations are not for everyone because many people like the freedom to be able to go where they want and see what they want to see once they arrive at their destination. They may like to go poking around a lot to get a real feel for the area once they get there. Or they may enjoy doing a lot of dining at different restaurants to sample local cuisine. For these folks, an all-in-one package where everything is on-site would probably not work at all.

But for those that want to just relax and have all the details taken care of for them, an all inclusive resort package can make a lot of sense. These packages often include pretty much everything you could want including airfare, accommodations, meals and drinks, resort activities, and more. Just as the name suggests these packages include just about everything.

Since they are offered by the resort where you stay, they tend to focus almost exclusively on what you will find at the resort itself, although some do also include some sightseeing packages outside the resort too. But if the resort has all the activities and entertainment that you could want to enjoy, you may not even want to leave anyhow.

The thing to do when shopping for all inclusive resort vacations is to make sure that you know what the package actually includes and also what it does not include. So think of all the things that you could want to do while you are there and ask plenty of questions beforehand to be sure that the package will meet your expectations. It may even be wise to actually call the resort and speak to someone in person who can give you all the information about the package that you need.

For many travelers there is nothing nicer and less stressful than to just pay one price for the whole vacation and have unlimited access to all the entertainment, food and drink that they could want while longing at a beautiful resort. If that describes you why not consider looking for all inclusive resort vacations the next time you are planning a getaway?

The Jersey Shore boasts some of the most crowded vacation destinations going. However, one popular resort, The Wildwoods, is truly a happening place and well worth the trip despite the crowds.

Much of this venerable beach community took off in the 1950s with the opening up of the Garden State Parkway and the Atlantic City Expressway. Many of the hotels still gracing the area still reflect that fifties look: tail fins, big hair, Elvis, and more. Old hotels with a bit of tackiness to be sure, but still a fun place to check out.

The boardwalk is a two mile trek laced with all kinds of stores selling saltwater taffy, t-shirts, trinkets, games, rides, junk food, you name it. If you don’t like to walk, tram cars will take you to the end or to any point in between. Soon, you will hear the familiar “watch the tram car” recording emanating from the cars and all you have to do is flag one down, hop on, and you’re off.

The beach is free, by the way. And, it is very wide particularly by NJ standards. Most people familiar with the Jersey Shore know that many beaches are razor thin. This beach has sand added to it constantly and naturally by compliant tidal waters; it is at least 1/4 mile from boardwalk to surf [in low tide, that is].

Wildwood now boasts a convention center built on the beach and new rides jutting out from its piers. Historic Cape May, home to more than 600 Victorian houses, is only four miles to the South and a great place to visit when you tire of the boardwalk scene. Atlantic City is one hour to the north and is a frequent side trip destination, especially on rainy days. Alternatively, you can also escape to the county zoo for the day in the town of Cape May Court House.

The best time to go to the Wildwoods is during July and August as the water temperatures can be too cold before that time. Still, most hotels have outdoor heated pools which you may prefer to salt water.

The resort is changing as many old buildings are being torn down and replaced by condos. Preservationists are attempting to maintain the family welcoming theme of the resort, so it remains to be seen what the resort’s future will be. In the meantime, grab a beach towel and your sunblock and head over to wonderful, Wildwood, NJ!

Born and raised in New Jersey, Matt is no stranger to the Jersey Shore having spent summer weeks on Long Beach Island as a child. Later in life, with a family of his own, the Keegans added Wildwood to their itinerary. This summer he hopes to return to Wildwood despite relocating to North Carolina.
