Cruising vs All Inclusive: Which One Is Better?

[@gstew148]

YES for the hair, Lynette 🤎✊🏾

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Thank you

[@xocaitlinnpattz]

I like cruising, my ADHD doesn’t fit well with staying in one place. I want to stop at ports that are different, explore a boat, explore a city etc.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Mine is opposite, I feel trapped on a ship and free at all inclusives since I can leave whenever I wish 😂

[@katcalico9142]

My ADHD is weird, I have a very hard time sitting still in longer meals like the MDR and even the longer theatre shows.

[@autobotdiva9268]

my 22 has adhd and trying to see which is better all inclusive vs cruising. dont get lost at the port or miss time.

[@terryannbrowne5598]

Not sure ,because there are so much things to do on a cruise but I am always super excited when we hit a port lol.

[@chilonmartin1906]

Jamaica is literally my favorite all inclusive resort place but I love cruising as well. I’ve had the experience of going into the country side and experiencing the culture, country, food, people and land. Just amazing!!!❤❤❤

[@LifeWithUsTV]

It’s so much better being at a resort in Jamaica, in my opinion!

[@chilonmartin1906]

I literally love everything about you guys since I discovered you a few days ago. I have been binge watching and I really love your vibes. I would love to travel with you both❤️

[@chilonmartin1906]

@ it was so much being at an open resort. The cab drivers at the resorts gave us an awesome experience off property ❤️

[@chandradaniels1332]

Loveeeeee cruising and going to different islands all inclusive is ok but love being on the water

[@gstew148]

5 Cruises and 1 All-Inclusive in (Loved them all), however, the All-Inclusive gave me “MORE”! Our all-inclusive for Aruba All Inclusive Romantic Resorts in Aruba | Divi Aruba All-Inclusive was the Best! I was able to chill on the beach (which was right outside of the walk-up patio). And the property has so many restaurants, things to do, and entertainment ‘ish to see! I had the best time going “off-property” even MORE!!

[@monicasmith3167]

Yes Lynette, my husband has stage 4 metastatic melanoma. He had 2 spots on his back taken off and several lymph nodes removed. FYI, melanoma travels to the brain... My husband, Orville had 2 spots. One shrunk during treatment and the other showed up after treatment so they radiation. He's clean at the moment. Sun block Sun block sun block!!!!!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Oh my!!! Virtual hugs

[@lashondra9150]

Ive stayed at the Hyatt Zilara in Montego Bay, Jamaica. LOVED IT!!!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

🥰🥰

[@jeanghrey]

Just got back from there would def recommend it

[@IncenseandSlowDancin]

I’ve stayed at Hyatt Ziva in Puerto Vallarta, and that was awesome as well.

[@trenikasmith940]

I agree with May being the best time to cruise

[@betterthanthedaybefore8090]

I agree with Lynette...I like the new Carnival ships. Had not stepped on carnival since the early 2000s...but the Mardi Gras and Celebration - like them.

[@ThatGurlDeeja]

I prefer Cruisin when I have my kids with me, it’s just easier! but if I’m on a girls trip or with my significant other I prefer a resort

[@brianrice-lp6jj]

WOW! I was legit just thinking about this! I didn’t even search this & I open KZbin for something else & this vid was on my page! MEANT TO BE! Thanks y’all, love y’all page.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Wow lol

[@sophiacadet9472]

[@Chizzeryl]

The small crowded icky pools, children and icky hot tubs on the ship makes resorts better for me.

[@ExpeditionGenao]

Hey Family!! Watching the replay while eating a big plate of red beans, rice and ribs and I had to put my plate down while stuffing my face to say I LOVE THE TOPICS you guys pick for your lives! This is such a great topic to talk about! We used to do all inclusive a lot when our daughter was an infant because it was the best bang for our buck and we got to get away but then we got hit with the cruise bug and got hooked on and never got off 😂 we do miss it and love both but this cruise life is making it hard to go back because they are pretty much competing with these all inclusives and all the lines have so many good products for families! Especially the young families with limited vacation time. But what a great topic to touch on! Love it❤ y'all have a great week family ❤

[@LifeWithUsTV]

I need a plate lol.

[@ExpeditionGenao]

Anytime y'all come to Texas our house is always open to y'all and I'll have a few big plates ready!!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Yes, I also meant to agree… Royal Caribbean is definitely competing with the resorts. Icon is a game changer

[@autobotdiva9268]

my 22 has adhd and trying to see which is better all inclusive vs cruising. dont get lost at the port or miss time. he go on my NERVE on the Conquest. slept, attitude, bored and then waited til midnite to explore the ship. glad he paid his on way.

[@colleenmcbride3656]

For me, I cannot afford plane travel and a vacation. I will be going on my first cruise on RC this December 2024. I live in AZ and will be driving to Florida to get on a 4 day cruise over Christmas. I was looking into all inclusives first, but the prices with airfare are so high, there was no way to afford it.

[@afrisbee7695]

For the question about parking and transfer, Park by the Ports in Port Everglades is reasonable and reliable

[@paulinapengelley6533]

I believe Virgin Voyages allows you to bring wine on board in a carry-on, but no beer or liquor. I was able to do this on last year but not sure if the rules have changed since. Per their website: "Passengers can bring two (2) 750mL bottles of wine per cabin in carry-on bags"

[@teehawk75]

I like them both for different reasons. I love visiting multiple ports during one trip on a cruise but I also love spending multiple days at one destination. I also enjoy not paying for each cocktail at All Inclusives. Cruises are cheaper up front but I tend to spend way more money while I'm on a cruise.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

I totally agree!

[@tammythibodeaux1280]

That's great! I will definitely check this out! Remember make your dreams a reality and book a cruise..❤

[@SopHiZzl3]

I went to Grand Palladium in Lucia JA back in 2011 and it was the BEST. Sad to hear it's not what it once was

[@AmandaLander]

Love this! For us, we booked a cruise (Symphony May 2025) because it’s our first time traveling somewhere with our kids. They will be 11 and 9 at the time of trip and we figured it would be easier because we can drive to the port and we don’t have to deal with flights and airport chaos.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

I feel you on that.

[@nataliajimenez1870]

@@AmandaLander The kids clubs in the cruises are really good to allow some adult time for parents. Plus there's entertainment that can appeal both to families or only to adults

[@sha_rho]

Perfect timing! I have cruised several times, but going to 1st all-inclusive in a few weeks. Ready for some culture immersion. The cruises be rushing me back on the ship!

I've been researching for over a month and I still have not booked an All-Inclusive for our Anniversary in June. 🤦🏾‍♀ We have decided on Jamaica though.

[@bsinita_wokeone]

🤗Hey fam just watching replay today and it was very informative on cruises & yall funny 😂as always love the video ❤. P.s I didn't know that travel agents when a customer asks for a refund the agent has to pay out of pocket to the travel company to cover the refund fees, this definitely has to change in the industry imo. Because its not fair, why should travel agents have to pay that cost?

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Yep, we have to give the commission back since they didn’t travel. We only get paid for traveled bookings 😢

[@tommysoutherland876]

Do y’all recommend Mexico or Punta Cana for all inclusive?

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Mexico

[@afrisbee7695]

Been biten, just got off our first cruise. A big 7 nighter on Princess. Now want the family to enjoy one. Problem is travel fir everybody is limited. Is the Carnival Sunshine okay for a introduction cruise for our fam? Or does anything go out of Savannah?
