5 Things an All‑Inclusive Resort Must Have for Spring Break

Does the all‑inclusive resort you chose for spring break offer everything you are looking for and more?

Warm sand between your toes, a cool drink in your hand and the sun setting over a turquoise blue ocean — this is the ideal location to reconnect with friends for a spring break getaway. As a global leader in hospitality, Hilton offers five helpful tips on how to make sure your all-inclusive vacation has everything it needs to help you relax through minimal planning.

Let Your Tastebuds do Some Exploring

All-inclusive resorts should offer multiple onsite restaurants to remove the hassle of deciding where to eat, while offering a chance to try various cuisines. Before booking your vacation, ask the resort how many choices of restaurants and dining experiences are available, and whether the resort offers a selection of food from around the world, so you don’t get tired of the same dinners. For example, Hilton Cancun, an All-Inclusive Resort offers a variety of cuisine including Mexican, Mediterranean, Southeast Asian and much more.

Find All the Fun in the Sun You Can Squeeze into a Day

Be sure to find an all-inclusive resort that offers you enough activities and entertainment. For instance, most Mexican and Caribbean resorts will have pools and beaches, but seek those that also include water sports equipment for snorkeling and kayaking if adventure is your thing. Mangrove Beach Corendon Curacao All-Inclusive Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton offers scuba diving or snorkeling in colorful coral reefs. Look for resorts offering live music, dazzling shows and dancing at night as well.

Privacy by the Sea

If your spring break vacation is a romantic getaway, you’ll want seclusion and serenity. All-inclusive hotels should cater to couples’ needs by offering privacy options for adults only including adult pools, private swim-out suites and jetted tubs, as well as romantic restaurants, world-class spas and casinos. Hilton Playa del Carmen, an All-Inclusive Adult Only Resort offers suite options that have swim-up access, including a semi-private pool and private terrace equipped with chaise lounges and a hammock. If you’re traveling with children, look for an all-inclusive resort that offers supervised and fun programs for kids while giving parents some space. Hilton La Romana, an All-Inclusive Family Resort, provides a scenic waterpark and Kids’ and Teens’ Clubs, with weekly beachfront camping adventures, discos and more.

Education Destination via Culture

According to the 2022 Hilton Trends Report, travelers are “looking for unique experiences to immerse themselves in, seeking meaningful ways to connect with the different cultures and destinations whilst discovering something new.” Great all-inclusive resorts will offer ways to integrate the local culture into your vacation with engaging programs, classes and experiences that will enhance your vacation, such as salsa and merengue lessons, engaging tequila tastings and local crafts. Hilton La Romana Resort & Spa, An All-Inclusive Adult Only Resort offers merengue lessons, enabling guests to experience the traditional style of Dominican music and dance.

Above and Beyond Hospitality

The right all-inclusive resort will have more than beachfront accommodations.  Seek world-class spas, personalized concierge, friendly team members and high-end offerings from well-respected hotel brands. While you want to experience new places and cultures, you also want the trust and reliability that comes from an established brand. It doesn’t hurt to turn to a brand that you have extra Points with to book that special vacation. For example, through Hilton Honors, Hilton’s award-winning guest loyalty program, members can get the lowest prices on Hilton hotels and instantly earn Points toward free nights simply by booking a hotel stay, using a Hilton Honors American Express credit card, hailing a Lyft and much more. Plus, right now members can earn an additional 2,500 Bonus Points per stay through May 1, 2022 after registering for Hilton Honors’ Points Unlimited promotion and staying at any Hilton hotel globally.

Once you have selected your resort, book, pay and go. That’s all there is to it. A Hilton All-Inclusive Resort will ensure you only need to focus on relaxing and having fun during your spring break vacation.
