Should I Use “All Inclusive” Packages In Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo being a tourism hot spot has many resorts and travel agencies offering travelers “all inclusive” getaways. These packages often include a number of meals and drinks within the resort. Some travelers may believe it will give them access to unlimited upgrades like spa access and activities, but the traditional definition of “all inclusive” is in reference to on site dining. Many travelers think they can get a better deal this way, but in reality it’s just a convenience that you may not use. Instead, you may want to opt out of the all-inclusive package with your resort, especially if your group is interested in the local dining scene.
