re: .

Mexico in general is not a Top Shelf destination. There are better Mexican resorts but in general the standards there are commensurate with what you would expect from Mexico.

All-Inclusives are, by nature, going to try and deliver the bare minimum of quality in food and alcohol they can to satisfy the segment which they are trying to cater to with the resort category. This means you can get marginally better consumables at a higher par All-Inclusive resort, but it's never going to be a Four Seasons' quality experience. It's simply not how A-Is work.

Rent a house that have a cook and housekeeper on staff or available. Let them buy local foods and prepare them for you. You get to know them and they can give you local knowledge.

Oh yeah, I avoid Mexico still. There's plenty of Carribean and Central America to see without going to Mexico.

Sounds like you chose a less than ideal location. All inclusive is the tits

To anyone who has ever done a few all inclusives

1. Are they all generally white trash

2. Is the all inclusive alcohol always watered down and bottom shelf and is the beer always low quality draught?

3. Is the food at all these places almost inedible? Like seriously, the worst food I've ever encountered

The wife and I did the Sandals in St Lucia (Halcyon) and experienced none of those issues. The drinks were good (and strong), the food was fantastic and the majority of folks were either not trash or left their trashiness at home.
