All Inclusive Caribbean Cruises

Get ready...get set...

Get wet. It's time for all inclusive Caribbean cruises. All inclusive discounted Caribbean cruises.

But first, I have some bad cruise news. Ready? Here it is:

The Caribbean is too big and too beautiful. You could go on ten all inclusive Caribbean cruises and still not manage to see some of the many beautiful destinations and ports of call. Let me give you an idea.

Antigua Aruba Jamaica Haiti Grand Cayman Puerto Rico Barbados U.S. Virgin Islands British Virgin Islands

St. Maarten St. Kitts St. Lucia St. Thomas St. Barts

Belize Honduras Panama Cancun Curacao Cozumel Guatemala Venezuela

You get the idea

There are almost too many good choices. But now I have a list for you that might actually make decision-making easier.

Because the Caribbean is so close to the U.S., a ton of departure ports are available. You can launch your all inclusive Caribbean cruise from the port closest to you, the one you'd most like to visit, or the one where Aunt Lillian lives! They are:

• Miami
• New York
• New Jersey
• New Orleans
• Key West
• Fort Lauderdale
• Mobile
• Tampa
• Galveston
• Charleston

Here's another way to narrow your choices. Most of the lines group their all inclusive Caribbean cruises by which section of the Caribbean they travel to: Eastern, Southern or Western. (Western includes the most beautiful sun-kissed parts of Mexico and Central America.)

Want to take a Southern Caribbean cruise departing from Tampa? Bingo. Your choices are now narrowed enough that you don't have to worry about your head exploding!

Having so many options has another benefit

The proximity of the Caribbean and the multitude of cruise lines sailing to it means healthy economic competition. Each of these cruise lines wants your business. Their desire to fill every empty stateroom can put any number of discounted Caribbean cruises within your financial reach. Even some of the fancier ones!

And while we're talking bargains, let's take a moment to think about what "all inclusive" means. Typically, it means that all this stuff is included in your cruise price:

• Your meals
• Your snacks
• Your room
• Your room service
• The shows you attend
• The shipboard activities you engage in

Can we please think about that for a moment? Which of those things don't cost extra (way extra) on a normal, landlocked vacation? On a cruise, you tend to get all that for less than you'd spend on a hotel room!

And let's not forget just how much you'll miss those rental car hassles and expenses as the salty breeze blows through your hair.

(Those of you who still have hair. Lucky you.)

Make no mistake about it

All inclusive Caribbean cruises are one of the biggest vacation bargains going. Discounted Caribbean cruises may just be THE best.

You've been good, right? Give yourself the vacation you deserve.

(And heck, even if you haven't been good, give yourself the vacation I deserve!)
