Why All Inclusive In Barbados
There's nothing quite like heading off on a tropical holiday, safe in the knowledge that your food, drink and airport transfers are all included, leaving you to just worry about having a good time. With direct flights from the UK and a range of wonderful accommodation from budget friendly a little further inland, to 5 star luxury resorts on the beach, you can tailor your holiday to suit your budget and taste.
When booking an ATOL protected package with the likes of Virgin Holidays, Kuoni, TUI or BA Holidays, you can also be safe in the knowledge your money is financially safe. Always check the terms & conditions of your booking to see what is and isn't included, but generally you'll find your luggage and airport transfers are also included on an all inclusive break.
If you're flexible (and lucky), you may also be able to take advantage of offers like promo code, minimum spend discounts and last minute deals. These can save you hundreds of pounds if you're travelling long haul and there's several of your travelling too. If you're a frequent flyer or you collect Avios or other air miles, airlines like British Airways may be able to offer discounts off your flight only (or package holiday if booking with British Airways Holidays), by using your air miles to pay for some or all of your holiday, or even give you the possibility of an upgrade. If you do collect miles, it's worth checking on the airline or tour operator website to see what's available.
Extras
You may find certain things aren't included within the cost of your holiday. Local alcoholic drinks are usually included but premium ones might not be (there may be the option to upgrade to an "all inclusive plus" package). Things like day trips, excursions or certain activities like sailing lessons may also have an extra charge. In fact, sometimes it's nice to escape the confines of your hotel for a day or two and take a tour of the island, visit Barbados' historic sites, or just head out to try some local cuisine in a nearby restaurant.What's Included
Generally with an all inclusive stay in Barbados, you should expect both your flights and your accommodation included. Depending on who you book with, these flight inclusive holidays may also include check-in luggage and seat selection as standard, but this isn't always the case so check before you book. You may also have shared airport transfers included too. Once at your hotel, all your meals and most drinks will be included, as well as snacks throughout the day. This can vary from hotel to hotel, so make sure to find out how much and what is included. Often motorwise watersports on the beach like jetskis aren't included, but hiring sea kayaks could be.
Frequently Asked Questions
Luxury All Inclusive
There are some truly incredible luxurious, five-star resorts in Barbados, the most notable being the Sandy Lane Hotel, with its infamous guest list, golf course, incredible beach location and some of the best hospitality you will ever experience. The House by Elegant Resorts (Marriott), on the south of the island, is another of the islands' five star resorts worth taking a look at if you're splashing the cash and want a more luxurious stay, with its soft sandy beach and turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, the ideal spot to enjoy the warmer weather.
Weather
The rainy season in Barbados usually runs from July to November, with many holidaymakers opting for winter or spring holidays as a result. It's worth noting that during the rainy hurricane season, downpours are short and sharp with sunshine often appearing for the rest of the day. Because of this, you'll find this is the low season, when travellers prefer not to visit, but it can actually still be a fab holiday and the prices can be much cheaper during this time too. December and early January are usually the most expensive months with the dry season and Christmas and New Year period both taking place.
