Shea and I have rarely (never?) stayed at the same brand of hotel during our various all-inclusive trips over the years, always interested in trying new places (though we lean heavily on the Cancun/Mayan Riviera area lately compared to moving around more when we first starting going to resorts.)
We stayed at a Riu during our third all-inclusive vacation back in 2004 and we’ve ended up booking another Riu – the Dunamar – for our family plus Pace’s girlfriend this coming winter. We had been looking for a resort that combined affordability, decent beaches and a few other “wants” and this popped up one day with the *amazing* deal that our group of five (always makes things more complicated0 could get two adjoining rooms for what most resorts wanted for a single “Family” suite.
