all inclusive? (by Frederick M.):

Mayan Palace is NOT all inclusive. If you plan to play golf every day and get a massage several times it gets expensive. If you spend most of your money on food it's a wonderful deal. The resort is 5 resorts together, and there are 17 restaurants of all varieties and prices, plus maybe 10 more bars that serve food. Prices are basically the same as U.S. ranging from fast food places to an elegant French bistro. Several restaurants have huge buffet breakfasts that are half price at 11:30, and a market for basic groceries plus salads, sandwiches and pastries to die for. You wear a bracelet that is also your room key, and everything is charged to your room, to pay as you leave. All menus show prices that include tax and tip, so you can simply sign and go. There is a Cirque du Soleil and a new water park (extra charge) plus generally two evening entertainments (one such as karaoke that is free) and plenty of shuttles to take you wherever. We own in Grand Luxxe, the most expensive of the 5 resorts, and go every year. Our bar costs run happy hour wine or beer, and we still stay around $50 per day for two of us.
