I’m looking to take my family , wife and 2 adult married early 30’s with each a small child, on a 5-6 day vacation. Would like something all inclusive so we don’t have to get kids in/out car every time we want to eat, and we like to eat, so we kinda like all inclusive to get to try different things.
Are you maybe a little confused about what an all inclusive is?

Not at all and I didn’t ask for sarcasm.

Most nice resorts have several restaurants and bars on site which would eliminate loading up the kids. But not necessarily all-inclusive of price.
Do you want a place with lots of amenities or a place with one set price? Or both?

Why does it have to be an all inclusive to meet all your criteria?

I’m open to either but would rather 1 set price .

So like jungle? Mountains? Western? Not giving a lot to go off of.

I guess it doesn’t, but I gave them a budget and I figure all inclusive would help us stick to that easier. One if my kids Has no boundaries when it comes to spending my $$

Gaylord Texan in Grapevine - not all inclusive

Def not jungle. Kids are small so airplane rides would have to be under 3 hours . We could make that to each coast.
I’m just tired of the beach for famiky trips and with 2 little ones we are limited. Thought someone would know of something that would fit.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be, but your point of not having to load kids to drive to restaurants was confusing. There are lots of resorts, etc that have two or three restaurants on site or within easy walking distance.

I know St Lucia has some. We going in Sept.

It’s an obscure request. Moderately priced, all inclusive, non- beach resort that is kid friendly, less than a 3 hour flight and has enough stuff to do for 5-6 days?
Where are you starting from?

There is one in TN that is in the mountain ls and setup as a retreat. I think one in Maine similar as well. I bet these are adult only though. There is an all inclusive in Austin and another in Arizona.

How young are the kids? A dude ranch can be really fun. White Stallion Ranch in Tucson is amazing, but pricey.

My kids are grown. Understand the interest.
Seems like the "Dude Ranch" model is the route to go as most of the All Inclusive I know of are beach oriented.
Based upon what I've been told by others over the years (i.e. we never went)...
A ranch in Colorado? I've been in the area several times, not this resort, but know of it. Beautiful part of the country.
Never been to the Steamboat Area, but have had some friends go To this dude ranch?
Been in the area years ago in Maine?
Vermont?
Or, full disclaimer, I grew up in Central Florida and am not a fan of The Mouse for a lot of reasons, BUT..Mickey wants your money and "family vacation" is heir schtick. The force is always strong going to Disney.
On a side note, I get the interest for predictability in costs. But, maybe you just target an area you want to visit with kid friendly activities, rent a nice, spacious home on AirBnB, buy groceries and use money on activities like horseback riding, renting a pontoon boat, tubing etc. North Carolina (many threads here) is primo for that.

Yeah, all of the US all-inclusives I can think of on my own are "wellness resorts", which likely aren't kid friendly but even if they allow them, would probably bore the kids to tears.
Gorgeous looking places, though.
