Frustrated with that low-cost all-inclusive beach vacation in Mexico, Dominican Republic and Cuba? Sick of the cramped flights, uncomfortable airport transfers, buffet line-ups and the battle to reserve your pool or beachside lounge chair when you should be still sleeping?
The higher end alternative might not be as far out of your financial reach as you thought. Palace Resorts provides a step up in luxury, service and, let’s face it, dignity. And, the price really isn’t that much more than a week in Cuba. If dollars and cents are your only concern, then maybe stick to the discount packages. If value is, well, what you value, do yourself a favour and give Palace Resorts a look.
Like Sandals or Beaches, this chain does not initially add in the flight to and from the destination. However, with one click, you can add in your flight with several options of airline.

11 Reasons Palace Resorts Could Be For You
1 – $1,500 USD Resort Credit for a 5-8 Night Stay
Yes, the resorts are all-inclusive. Like any other all-inclusive, certain things are not included. With Palace Resorts, you get a credit to be used toward these items. The longer you stay, the more the credit is. A three night stay = $500, four night stay = $750, 9-11 night stay = $2,000 and 12 nights or more = $2,500.
This credit can be used toward visits to the spa / beauty, rounds of golf, SCUBA, gift shop items, special dinners and off-site excursions.
2 – Gourmet Cuisine
A la carte gourmet meals at EVERY meal. No, you don’t have to wait in a sweaty line-up on your first day of your vacation to book your maximum of two a la carte dinners away from the buffet. This is sit-down, calm and respectful service, all the time. Reservations aren’t even required.
3 – Top Shelf Drinks
Yes, all all-inclusive resorts are an all-you-can-drink bonanza. But, unless you pay for a premium package at your typical package resort, those bottles on the top shelf at the bar with actual recognizable brand names, are off limits to you. Not at Palace Resorts, you get the good stuff, all the time. And, a well stocked liquor dispenser and mini-bar and located right in your room so you can enjoy a drink on your own balcony with out walking a mile to get it.
4 – 24 Hour Room Service
What can I say? Sometimes, you just don’t feel like eating in a restaurant for every single meal. At Palace Resorts, you don’t have to…
5 – Free WiFi Throughout The Entire Resort
That’s right, folks. Free WiFi everywhere. You don’t have to buy a card, cram yourself into a very small area that gets reception (without 50 other guests) and spend most of your time trying to log in to the system like it was 1999. The WiFi is available in your room or wherever else you find yourself within the resort.
6 – In-Room Double Whirlpool Tubs
You’ve got the booze dispenser and 24 hour room service, put it to good use while you lounge in your double whirlpool tub!
7 – Surf Simulator
Okay, this is currently only available at Moon Palace Cancun, Moon Palace Jamaica and The Grand. But, how cool is it that a surf sim comes with your vacation?
8 – Use Of Sister Resorts At No Extra Cost
Obviously, this one is only good in Cancun where there are multiple resorts. Want a change of scenery, you can shuttle on over to one of the other Palace Resorts in the vicinity.
9 – Free Unlimited Phone Calls To The Continental U.S, Canada and Mexico
If you really wanted to stay in touch with those back home, you can at no extra cost.
10 – Kids and Teens (17 and Under) Stay, Play and Eat Free
Memories Resorts is our personal go-to brand right now because kids are free. But, not kids up to 17 years old! This does not include the flight and does not apply around Christmas and New Year’s.
11 – Complimentary Honeymoon Package
Married within the past year? Bring a copy of your marriage certificate and receive the extra honeymoon package, on the house.
