I've worked at an all-inclusive resort for 10 years - these are 19 mistakes every traveller should avoid

Heading to an inclusive resort is the best of both worlds: you get to go on an amazing holiday while someone else takes care of all the little details. But how do all those little details work, exactly? And how can you, as the guest, have an epic experience? As an entertainment director for more than a decade, I've gotten an insider look into nearly every aspect of these types of hotels, which means I know a few things that you'll definitely want to know. My job may sound like a 24/7 party, but it's a lot of work too. I joke that my 'nightlife' fills my entire day. But my lack of work-life balance is your gain, since my experience translates into all-inclusive resort tips that will help you have a blast and give you the most bang for your buck. Because let's be honest, if you're going to an all-inclusive resort, you're spending a lot of money - and you deserve to get what you're paying for. Over the years, I've seen thousands of guests, and there are some common mistakes people make - from the type of package they book to what they do (and don't do) when staying at an all-inclusive. So memorise this advice because it can help you have the best holiday of your life.
