First 24 Hours At One Of MEXICO'S TOP All Inclusive Resorts | Playa Del Carmen

[@somethingelse4204]

Your channel name is Travel Spree, not "WeOnlyReviewCruises". No shame in trying out a different form of travel and recreation! Glad you enjoyed your time at the Hilton resort. They're usually a solid choice.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Lol! That could be a good channel name though 😂

[@klmethot]

I did an all inclusive in Playa many years ago and it was fabulous. The biggest decision of my day was, which pool, which restaurant and which bar to go to. I do like them as much if not more than cruises. Have a blast!

[@luluballoon]

One of the reasons we've never done an all inclusive is because we don't drink and we feel like we would be paying for drinks we're not having. We get such great deals on cruises because we don't need drink packages, we just pay the fare. But this looks so nice and relaxing.

[@tihannabear]

oh but you get so much more than drinks with all inclusive!

[@TheCollectiveTravels]

Unlike cruise ships there is no paid specialty dining , its all included 7+ restaurants, you get non motorized watersports free, snorkeling, multiple big pools for you to choose from. Also the NA frozen drinks are free, There are a ton of entertainment options that are included.

[@unfailingcolt8928]

I only do all inclusive. The food, restaurants, and you can get nonalcoholic drinks, that are very yummy. The staff is what made my experiences so great.

[@jenniferlarsonjaylaplans]

We just came back from an all inclusive and it cost us way less than any cruise we have ever been on (neither my husband nor I drink)

[@Jemmyjammer]

I love that the channel is growing! Keep up the great work and the world is your oyster… orrrrr cruise ship!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Lol thank you!! It’s been so exciting and rewarding watching it grow. Glad to have you on this journey with us!

[@Dhdc999]

Yess, I’m so glad you guys are trying out all inclusive resorts. The rooms are amazing

[@terristreich9858]

You guys are so cute! We are the opposite I feel like going on a cruise would feel like we’re on a glorified mall and water. So happy you got your experience and all inclusive. That’s what we do and we just think it’s a better value all around. Thank you for sharing with all of us.

[@ginag7004]

You 2 are absolutely adorable! Love your videos. I am a cruiser but you sure made that look fun! We will have to try it! Thanks for sharing! :)

[@melaniemariko9336]

I love the hot tub in the room! I love cruising, but love the size of the rooms and accommodations that come along with all-inclusive hotels. Hope you had a great time!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Yeah the size of the rooms is hard to beat! That size room on a cruise ship would be thousands of dollars per person, per night 😬

[@shawnmarie459]

I'm glad you shared your 1st all-inclusive. I think I'll try one for my next vacation. It feels like cruise value is not what it used to be. We're being nickle-and-dimed, pushed toward specialty dining, amenities only for certain guests, etc.

[@nnahler]

Agreed, took my last cruise last month with my mother and we both decided to try the all-inclusive route next year. Some great deals in Puerto Vallarta as well!

[@PRTEEGRL]

What I love about all inclusive sis the fact that I don’t have to RUSH when sightseeing/excursions. If I don’t see/do something, there’s always another day!

[@erikbrannan1701]

I stayed at all inclusive resorts for 10 years in Mexico prior to cruising and it is amazing and such a different experience. I love cruising, but I’ll always mix it up between the two. Glad y’all gave this a try and hope you continue to experience the benefits of the all inclusive!

[@JaypeaFoto]

We have been to this area of Mexico 25 plus times. The airport confusion does get better once you have been there a couple of times. Great Video. Glad to see your exploring the all-inclusive life. Unlike cruising, I find AI resorts have a sense of freedom , in that what you pay to go includes just about everything, with some exceptions of course. But the big stuff like drinks , specialty dining ect is all included.Have a blast.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Yeah it's funny because we've both been to Mexico quite a few times because of cruising but that was our first time ever flying there!

[@kathleenhk]

Do you have some favs? Thanks!

[@jholly5747]

Great to see you guys do something different than cruising. There is so many on inclusive resorts all over the Caribbean and the world that you could try out. You could try all different varieties of on inclusive resorts, such as adult only, party city, total relaxation, etc.. Looking forward to more inclusive if you could guys decide to go there.

[@HighMileagewrmfrm]

Fain is THE BEST "I think you should book a spa day"

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

He really is the best ❤️

[@Krysb107]

I’d actually LOVE more all inclusive content. I watch you guys and I’ve never been on a cruise 🤣 but I have been to an all inclusive resort once. Definitely want to go again soon so I’d love to see y’all’s experiences

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Say no more lol we'll definitely be going back

[@susanstadtlander9140]

I've stayed at this resort 17 times and love it! The staff is what makes me go back year after year as well as the hotel itself. Glad you had a good time and enjoyed your video! I saw some of my friends in it and you made me homesick! Going back Jan. 23 and can't wait. It was a good choice for your first all inclusive experience, travel on!!!!!

[@carlaroy1763]

I stayed in my 20s at the time at the Oasis in Cancun. It was an all inclusive trip and the place we stayed at was unbelievable in a good way. but on the last day I started to get sick from I guess the ice in my drinks because I drank only bottled water. I was sick for 2 weeks. Only good thing is I lost 5 lbs 😂

[@cydneystephen2814]

Hey guys. Watching the replay. Mexico is what’s up. Was in Cancun in July 2021 and Puerto Playa December 2022 2 different all inclusives. Yes. Airport sucks. Their resorts have amazing pools. Amazing room guys. My husband would love that jacuzzi. Like a cruise; many eating options. Well it’s all inclusive so no signing bills. Just eat and drink. We did have to make dinner reservations at the sit down restaurants. Buffets were just walk in. Room tour time. Seeing you eat reminded me there were included snacks and water/juices/sodas included in the fridge. And room service was included too. 24hrs/day. Wow. The hottub is big and deep. Awesomeness. Next time get the 1st floor with the personal pool. Yesssss Laura. Love your dress. Glad dinner and drinks were delish. Thanks for sharing.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Hey Cydney!! Hope you're doing well. Glad you enjoyed the vlog 😊

[@dennisk2982]

Beautiful place, get to explore at your leisure with the land vacation. You guys rock,

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Yes! Even the first day with a long travel day felt super relaxing

[@joycravey8224]

Beautiful resort and room! Can't wait to see all your wonderful vlogs in this series!🌴🌊😍

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Glad you enjoyed it 🥰

[@kevinroyals7130]

Im glad you guys see what my wife and I saw years ago. You can stay and get all the stuff a cruise can do for you and you dont have to leave. I love that, and its more spacious. We just left the Hyatt Zilara Cancun, it seems to be almost exactly like the Hotel your at, so we are looking into it rt now. I will continue to watch your videos and we hope you continue to enjoy the resort experience. P. S. Beware though. there are some crappy ones out there. We have run into 1 or 2 of them, you gotta have a great beach when that happens. Thanks and have fun.

[@vdeniceeckert3494]

We have stayed at about 10 all inclusive resorts, 2 in Jamaica, 1 punta cuna, cancun 3 times 1 ,Puerto Vallarta, 1Acapulco, Manzanillo, Ixtapa. And a few others. Love all inclusives

[@lisaleach9179]

This resort looks really really nice! I’ve never done a resort but it is on my bucket list if I can ever stop cruising😊

[@OldSchoolPrepper]

i love staying in a house in another country....get to know the area. We started out in all inclusive resorts...NOW (20 years later) we stay in a neighborhood...with the locals AND we can now stay for 4 months at a time instead of just a week or so. It's far less $, you learn the language and meet locals for food and drink...plus your family and friends can come visit because most homes have several bed rooms. we've done this in Belize, US Virgin Islands and now mostly Mexico. Stay a month for a weeks worth of cruise....far better and learn the environement where you are...not where some cruise line takes you...keep up the good work friends.

[@babygurl1209100]

This is the first video I have seen from this channel. I completely enjoyed it, I have also been mostly a “cruise person”. Now I would like to try and go to the exact same place. You guys make a beautiful couple. Charming, easy-going, well spoken. I don’t subscribe to too many channels, but two won me over. 🎉😊😁

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Oh wow, thank you!! We will have a drink in your honor! ❤️

[@theodoretoth2884]

Crazy I went from always doing all inclusive to trying my first cruise last year and now I am addicted to cursing! I just love how everything is right there for ya.

[@Leah-fd8kw]

Great, fun video! Laura looks like a model😊 Love the way you interact, very kindly and loving ❤️

[@OGLenaLaw]

Love this video! I'm super stoked to see more all inclusive resort trips!

[@bryt.147]

This is my husband and mine go to all inclusive! We were in the swim up below your room to the left at the end. The swim ups are so worth it as the bar is right across the way. My fave hotel

[@julieevans2831]

Although my husband and I are much older than y’all, we LOVE all inclusive resorts. We have been going to Mexico for the past 21 years and our favorite is Excellence Riviera Cancun. It is only 20 minutes from the airport and adults only. We did our first cruise and the next year we went to our first all inclusive and we never looked back! Continue making lovely memories and enjoying your adventures!

[@burnhagw]

Looks amazing but nothing beats cruising!

[@ramonberrios82]

I stayed here back in 2020. Def my favorite resort and ALL the food was amazing. Silent party in the main lobby is nice too.

[@pippilongstocking-qs7fm]

As a seasoned Mexico traveler, I've done all inclusive & European plan AKA empty plate lol. I find it so much more convenient to have all inclusive at your hotel. The difference is about $50-70.00 but if you drink alcohol, it can be a huge money saver to go AI

[@Tangobutton]

NEED a Travel Spree t-shirt that says 'Cheezy and Classy at the same time!'

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Lol that’s a good idea!

[@ItsLatishaLove]

Yay you guys went! My husband & I still talk about our trip to the Hilton Playa Del Carmen. Literally the best trip we’ve had other then Cuba. We love that place so much. I think I commented this resort in one of your videos so happy to see y’all went.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

It was a perfect first all-inclusive for us! We're so happy we picked it. We want to try more, but honestly would love to go back to this one again.

[@ItsLatishaLove]

@@TravelSpreeOfficial yes I agree! It was also our first all inclusive experience & we would totally go back. We’ve been to an all inclusive in Jamaica too but I wouldn’t recommend that one. We are cruisers but Hilton Playa Del Carmen definitely made us re think our love for cruising for a moment too lol.

[@howardhobbs9333]

We we’re just there in Cancun for 12 days,we love it there,we go about every 4 months,we always stay at Iberostar Coral level Cancun,instead of cruising now!!

[@Fortincookie]

OMG!! I watch all your cruise content and I have been to the this resort twice!! 🤣 it’s a favorite in the friend group. I started to watch and was like… Playa del Carmen… if it’s the Hilton I’m gonna lose my mind and YUP!! Such a fun video to watch ❤

[@amyrivers4093]

Your room is about the size of my first apartment I used to live in. I loved your room tour. I find it interesting looking at hotel rooms.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Lol I think it was about the size of my first apartment too!

[@gamechanger5779]

I did one at The Hilton in Virginia Beach. And I was impressed. I will be including land vacations to my list. That room was 🔥

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

I could have never left that room and been happy haha

[@pricillawillis878]

Thank you for the 1st time view point. I’ve been talking to my husband about doing an all inclusive resort instead of a cruise next year, you are convincing me. This was an amazing video! I love seeing life through your eyes!❤

[@ItsLatishaLove]

If you guys haven’t left already, take the ferry over to Cozumel & take a ride around the island & go to a bar on the beach side called “Welcome To Miami”. Get a mojito & you will be so satisfied!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

This was a couple of weeks ago, but next time for sure! That sounds SO fun

[@TexasbyStorm]

I want it super cold so I can cozy up in my blankets! I cannot sleep if its not in the 60s in our room. I love winter for this reason!

[@Jlady2008]

Hilton Playa Del Carmen is one of my favorite all inclusive resorts. I can't wait to go back there!

[@ranellmueller2972]

Awww...kitties! Nothing wrong with being obsessed with the fur babies. I do the same thing--find kitties, take pictures...

[@spottypuck]

You two are absolutely adorable!!!

[@thecruisingsisters]

We love the opinion on something other than a cruise. We have never done an all inclusive, but the size of the room compared to a cruise is amazing!

[@saramulhern1982]

I love your content I love my all inclusive I am 41 next Saturday and I have been on all inclusive 201 times and I have been on one cruise the p and o arvia. But I was comparing the cruise all the time I should have not been but p and o is not a company for me I think I will try another company. Glad you enjoyed it ❤

[@dawnday1859]

Me and my husband have been traveling throughout the caribbean at all inclusives (exclusively) since 2016. There are so many resorts to pick from throughout the caribbean. It's the best!!! Try the Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya, it's the best resort we've ever been to and we've been to alot. Enjoy....

[@Jesse.M22]

I would love to see more AI resort content. I would really like to see you try Excellence Playa Mujeres. Honestly, though, I just found your channel and I'll watch you go anywhere. You are entertaining and you feel more like genuine people than many "content creators", if that makes sense. Anyway, love the channel and I look forward to your future adventures, whatever they may be.

[@ellagracemays3610]

Thank you so much for posting this! I'm getting married in July and have been stuck on wanting to go to this resort for our Honeymoon and this video really sold me. Y'all are awesome!

[@Nina_Olivia]

This is definitely the most impressive Hilton resort I’ve ever seen. Keep up the great work guys! ♥️

[@vabeloved]

Y’all have convinced me! Already checking prices for my anniversary next year. Can’t wait to see the rest of the series! ❤

[@aquarianbeauty80]

Check out the Adults only all inclusives as well. I stayed at Barcelo Maya Riviera. Adults only resort situated in the Barcelo complex. 6 resorts you can play and stay once you're booked at the Adults only. I had a blast!!!

[@KimberlyH2022]

This resort looks nice! We did our first all inclusive in Riveria Maya and we LOVED it. Hopefully we can go to this one you guys went to next!

[@Tammy-pv7qp]

I was in PDC twice this year, never once felt unsafe.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Us either! As long as you’re smart and aware of your surroundings, you’ll be good!

[@kimberlyfamoly5863]

I have done both and prefer a resort, you can explore a country and never have to be rush to make it back to the ship on time. Also it’s more chill at a resort, and less crowded. However you need a lot of cash for tipping for everything, still was less than a cruse.

[@deebee_412]

Great video! I may be convinced to try an all-inclusive after this series! The food looked delicious. And i enjoy your non cruise vlogs as much as your cruise ones.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Thanks Darla!

[@martelbaran2244]

As retired seniors and not big travellers, my husband and I like the AI resorts, it is easier for us to move around and stay put when we need to, and the food is usually great, and we are not real,off site excursion people.

[@Gudtime]

If you like a more quiet, laid back atmosphere.. check out Huatulco in Oaxaca Mexico ! Love It ! Super Safe, Quiet, friendly..

[@Rotax88]

Welcome to the all inclusive world, we love it but they can be very hit and miss , we’ve discovered research is a must ! We will be doing Cancun this winter ! Cheers

[@hayleeedwards3072]

Laura you looked GORGEOUS for dinner!! Loved the dress!

[@realcdcruze3558]

We’re booked at Secrets in Puerto Vallarta in Feb 2024. Soooooo excited!🎉🎉

[@TimothyHorth]

Can’t wait to see the next few videos glad you all are enjoying your trip

[@sharonhutchins5784]

Beautiful dress for a beautiful lady! I’ve never done an all-inclusive before. I loved this content. Do more of these for sure!

[@alanwilhite7034]

I enjoyed this video, first time I have seen you two and I really enjoyed your presentation. Happy days to you both!

[@diesa522]

Hi! Don’t stop cruising just mix in some all inclusive trips in between 😆

[@TIFFandDRETV]

Your channel name is well suited for all forms of travel. This was so much fun to watch. We’ve had second thoughts about all inclusive, but you guys sparked our interest. You guys look great. Well done video. Beautiful colors and scenery. Thanks for taking us on your journey.❤🎉

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Thanks guys! Let us know if you try one out! Would love to see your experience :)

[@TIFFandDRETV]

@@TravelSpreeOfficial most definitely

[@FR-tb7xh]

Fun video! And I love that dress!!!

[@HowardT1879]

You guys should definitely do more videos like this.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Thanks!! That's the plan 😊

[@livingblackirish8809]

This was great! Such high energy and excitement for something new❤ We have never been, but now it’s on the list!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Thanks guys!! It's a great place to fully unwind

[@barbarajohnson9050]

All inclusive is the only way to go!! That’s a beautiful resort, guys!!!

[@shawnpeterson2634]

You two are the most adorable couple I have ever seen. Welcome to the world of All Inclusive. My husband and I stayed there years ago when it was the Royal. We absolutely loved it!!! But unfortunately the beach was so horrible, we never returned. Now that you have converted to All Inclusive, may we recommend the Hotel Xcaret, or the Excellence, and the Beloved, and the TRS Yucatan. Loved your videos.

[@cathiemuraski3042]

That dress!!! ❤️ Awesome video!

[@michellejones8464]

Love it all inclusive is exciting too. I’ll watch either way

[@Ladyspice64]

My husband and I are going to start doing all inclusive. We love cruising, but we think all-inclusive will be more fun. Thank you for sharing your experience. I really enjoy your channel.

[@gaycale5563]

I love Playa del Carmen. Akumal is my absolute favorite place, altho I haven't been there since Covid. The homemade ice cream there is amazing.

[@karenmbbaxter]

awww......it's sweet that Laura likes cats.......I like cats too and foster a few of them.

[@em32em]

so happy you guys reviewed this place- I am going in December!

[@michellepj8809]

Hi guys! Looking forward to more like this from you.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Thanks Michelle 💗

[@sweetd7007]

This was a nice video. I always enjoy watching your travel vlogs!! It's always good to experience different travel options.

[@terryw929]

I just found your channel and have subscribed! cant wait to see more. I do like all inclusives more than cruising....seems like more freedom, more space, drinks and eats all your want, if you want, etc

[@LiftedUpandLiving]

I love all inclusive you never have a bill at then end unless you indulge in the spa !

[@2014famu]

Love seeing you guys explore an all inclusive. I’m Looking forward to move of the all inclusive content.

[@alexramos3976]

we have stayed there before when it was the royal, wonderful!

[@goofsaddggkle7351]

I’m 100% team All Inclusive. You chose a great one location and quality-wise. The food quality is fantastic there as well as the drink/bar selection. And being walking distance to town for some local eats is a huge perk. EDIT: Swimouts are ALWAYS the best rooms - maybe not for view but for enjoyability!!!

[@MeetTheMazelins]

Thanks for sharing this! Funny, because for us it was the opposite. We've done a few all -inclusives together and have always enjoyed them. Cruises for us is fairly new and I think we enjoy the fact that you can really experience a few different places all in one trip. Both are great though when it comes to value for money! If you guys ever decide to do any in Jamaica and need recommendations let us know!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Yeah I think a big thing for us is the novelty of it. Things are always more exciting when they're new. We've done so many cruises that it's kind of hard to appreciate it now!

[@2014famu]

Me and my husband use to be cruise people until our first all inclusive. It’s kinda card to go back to cruising after the all inclusive

[@SUSIEB0812]

Oh my goodness, you two are so adorable together! Fain…I LOVE your hair, and that jellyfish shirt looks awesome on you! Laura…you are a beauty! Your orange print dress was made for you to model it…so, so gorgeous! I’m new to your channel and instantly subscribed! Enjoyed this video very much and look forward to more! Bravo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@philanddeetravels]

Yes yall have been missing out on the all inclusive life. We went to cancun back in June for our anniversary. It's definitely not cruising but still can be just as enjoyable. Interested to see how the rest of the trip went.

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Definitely realized we've been missing out!

[@helenapaquette5005]

You guys are so funny. My boyfriend and I are going to hilton playa del carmen in 20 days and really sad that you are not going to be there at the same time! You are really funny

[@vaggabondish1854]

My travel agent heart is so happy to see you took the plunge! Great pick in resorts, too 💜

[@KELLIEDOHERTY-c7q]

Here for cruises and all inclusive reviews! You guys are so funny! That place looks amazing I hope to go sometime.

[@ladybee.89]

I love watching all your cruise videos but I won't lie if you started travling to different resorts I would be living for that as I am someone who Liles going to all inclusive trips it would give me great ideas where to go next

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Good news, we are aiming to try another one this year

[@IrishInsomniac76]

If you guys like that resort your minds would be blown at Secrets Moxche, Hotel Xcaret (family) or Iberostar Grand Paraiso all between Cancun and Playa del Carmen.

[@soshiangel90]

tbh I would be sad if ya'll stopped cruising but I support whatever you choose to do. I do like that you're trying something different and it does give me ideas for when cruising maybe gets too expensive or too repetitive. I'm here for all the adventures!

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Lol I highly doubt we'd ever stop cruising completely! But it means a lot that you support us 💙

[@aquarianbeauty80]

You guys are so adorable 😍. I love Riviera Maya so much fun. Hope you guys return to another, all inclusive.

[@VickieCarla]

Looks wonderful! We've been talking about going back to Cancun but staying in an all-inclusive. Thanks for sharing your experience. I would do one thing different though - no clothes in (room) jacuzzi - Cruiserella

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

LOL! Can't show the no clothes part on camera hahaha

[@Sweetkay810]

I was at this resort back in March. I enjoyed every moment but couldn't help missing being on a cruise ship!

[@ChimpMcTwitch]

Scribed. Immediately. Good stuff. Good wholesome fun.

[@phox1515]

KITTY!!! cats are awesome.

[@darleneeastburn7639]

Well , this is new and exciting…

[@TravelSpreeOfficial]

Yay!! Glad you liked it 🥰
