5 Reasons To Book Your All-Inclusive Caribbean Vacation Direct
Have you recently decided to travel to the Caribbean? If so, you may be ready to make your travel arrangements, but wait! How can you book your trip? You have many options, including using the services of a professional travel agent, a third-party travel website, or by going directly to the source. Each option will do, but you want the best. For all-inclusive Caribbean vacations that is going directly to the source.
Why should you make your Caribbean vacation plans directly through the all-inclusive resort? Continue reading on to find out.
1 – Accurate and Up-to-Date Information
Whether you book your all-inclusive Caribbean vacation directly through the resort or through a third-party travel website, you will get some information. Unfortunately, third-party travel websites usually provide you with the bare minimum. If you are luckily, you will get a summary of the resort in four or five paragraphs. This is great, but not enough for you to make an informed decision. Are you sure you are choosing the right resort? To make sure, go directly to the resort’s online website. Not only do you get detailed information, but many pictures too!
Most importantly, the information provided on a resort’s website is up-to-date and accurate. Resort amenities, such as the services and available facilities, are subject to change. If a resort adds more inclusions, don’t you want to know?
2 – Full List of Inclusions and Non-Inclusions
As previously stated, many third-party travel websites give you a short description of the Caribbean all-inclusive resort. Not all have it laid out for you in an easy to read list or chart. This is what you need. Before departing for your trip, know what you can do at your resort without paying extra. Don’t find out too late that most of the resort’s onsite activities and entertainment cost extra. This information is included on the websites of all Caribbean resorts, but does not always appear on third-party travel websites.
3 – Contact Information
Once again, all-inclusive resorts have detailed information on their websites. For that reason, you shouldn’t have any questions. All the information you need will be presented to you upfront. However, should you have a question, you know who to contact. With third-party travel websites, you can contact them for information on your reservations, but they cannot provide you with more information about the resort. Do you want to take advantage of a Caribbean resort’s free standard wedding ceremony? If so, a third-party travel website cannot help you, but the resort itself can.
4 – Better Deals
Third-party travel websites offer good deals and discounts, but these special offers are rarely available for all-inclusive resorts. This is because you are already getting a good deal. After your trip, estimate the total cost of your all-inclusive Caribbean vacation (including food, snacks, drinks, tips, and so forth). Compare your estimate to the cost you paid and you likely saved money. Third-party travel websites tend to offer the best deals for standard hotels, not all-inclusive resorts.
Luckily, the all-inclusive resorts themselves are known for offering numerous special offers throughout the year. These deals and discounts may include a free night’s stay with a minimum stay or a set dollar amount off. Moreover, by booking your all-inclusive Caribbean vacation direct, you avoid the booking fees that most third-party websites charge.
5 – Less Hassle
All-inclusive Caribbean vacations are picture perfect vacations and you want yours to be too. For that reason, you won’t choose just any all-inclusive Caribbean resort and travel package. You will and should take the time to compare nearby resorts, their inclusions, their costs, and examine pictures. Unfortunately, third-party travel websites make it difficult for you to get the clear picture. Get the information you need right now, without hassle.
Finally, it is always important to consider the what ifs. What if you have additional questions? What if you must change your all-inclusive Caribbean vacation plans? Don’t be left to get the run around from someone else, deal directly with the resort. Not only you will get less hassle, but you are sure to have the Caribbean vacation of your dreams!

Is there anywhere I could download a plot/character organizing chart?
Is there anywhere I could download some charts/outlines for plot development and character development online for a novel? I am in the thought process or prewrite process of my novel (this time, I am going to spend more than a few weeks on the outline.) and I want to make this one right so I can stick with it when I am, well, stuck. With all my other starter novels, I have stopped at 15,000 words because I realized that my plot was cliche, didn’t have enough twists, or the characters lacked something. I can’t make my own because I forget stuff and I have no clue how to make one! Can someone help? I’d really apprieciate it.
P.S Please don’t suggest writing from the seat of my pants because that doesn’t work for me. Also, I know about writing a novel/publishing process. I have researched it and I have purchased books on plots and characters and have bookmarked and taken notes. I haven’t written in 6 months due to lack of time and thinking, and now I need to write. Please help!
Well, do you have Microsoft Word? If you do then you could go there and under Insert and then choose Diagram, afterwards pick which one you want. I used this one to help me with my plot development and characters. I also have the same problem as you.
You can use that to detail everything about the characters you want in your novel. As far as I know I don’t know about a website where you can dowload charts or outlines. I always use Microsoft Word for those things.
Good luck! I hope it all works out.
What should I include in a character/plot organazation chart?
I am writing a novel and it is in the planning process as of now. I’d like to have a chart for character development and a plot outline, but what shoud I include in the chart like: name, gender, description, personality, ect?
Also for the plot, how could I make that into an outline with a chart? Each chapter? Each event? I’d really like some help because I’d like to get started as soon as possible. Thank you!

Why will Nobody tell (most) College Students that MOST of what they are doing is a WASTE of TIME?
I ask this question because the sentiment is true. Our educational process is seriously defunct in so many ways. It is pathetic. We have reduced education to be some ridiculous silly little game. Students KNOW this but are not supposed to admit that they know it. ALL education should have true and direct value and benefit to the student and to their ultimate goals …otherwise it is time wasted. Valuable time.
I hate the fact that 2nd grade teachers wasted my time teaching me French which I had/have NO use for. 12th grade biology teachers wasted an entire semester teaching me about plants and another teaching about atoms and the molecular structure. I completely memorized the atomic chart …Completely useless stuff …for ME.
I’ve taught myself Computer Programming; Graphic Arts; Corporate Law; Speed Reading; Web Design; Book Publishing; Audio Production; Spanish; Forex Trading; Psychology of Combat; Commodities Investing; etc. I am very successful today as a direct result of my independent research and self-education so yes… I believe in education. It is fundamental to life success but our educational system is inadequate and …again, WASTES a lot of precious time in both elementary school, high school AND college because it subjects students to rote memory expectations rather than truly challenges them with relevant and applicable knowledge.
I say ask yourself this simple question about every aspect of your education: HOW will this knowledge …once I fully grasp it actually BENEFIT me in my life? …and… WHAT will be the negative consequence on my life if I don’t get it or forget it after I’ve passed the class (as most students will).
Are my credentials good enough for Harvard Medical School?
GPA 3.9, MCAT 33, double major in Biology and Psychology, Double minor in Chemistry and Humanities, Volunteered in a private Diagnostics clinic my first summer in college, volunteered with ophthalmologists from USC to fight an eye disease called Retinopathy of Prematurity in Armenia my second summer in college, and have done a research on rats and published an article about oral taurine supplementation preventing light induced damage in the rats’ eye retina during the third summer in college…. Please “professionally” evaluate these credentials and give me an advice…
P.S. I am an international student from Armenia, but my undergraduate degree is from Greensboro College, NC. Thanks, and please dont give me any book or chart references…I am just looking for a professional’s viewpoint (somebody who works/worked in an admissions office, or is somehow related to that entire process….)…Thanks again..
thank you!
Because no matter how many times you post this rant, most of college is not a waste of time. Are a few people wasting their time? Sure. Are most of us? Nope. College sounds like a waste of time for you personally. That does not apply to everyone. And self-study in most topics won’t get you a job. You need some proof you actually learned something. Just try self-studying medicine or astrophysics and see where that gets you.
Ha!
You seem like you’ve been squandering your life away recently.
Just kidding obviously. If they dont accept you then i wont even get into community college
