Compare all-inclusive holiday deals

When it comes to package holidays, all-inclusive means that everything from your flights to your food is included in the cost of your booking. While every resort will offer a slightly different package, in general, you can expect all-inclusive holidays to include:

• Flights and transfers
• Accommodation
• Food – three meals a day, plus snacks and ice creams
• Drink – unlimited house beer and wine, local spirits and soft drinks
• Activities, such as tennis, exercise classes and water slides
• Kids' clubs and family entertainment
• Evening entertainment, such as live music and shows.

All-inclusive holidays can be as cheap as self-catering breaks when you consider the cost of food, drinks and activities. So don't base your decision on price alone. Instead, think about where you want to go, who's going, and how you like to dine.

If you like to dine at local restaurants, cook your own meals or eat after the kids have gone to bed, self-catering is ideal. If you wish to stick to a mealtime routine and don't want to spend ages deciding where to eat, all-inclusive breaks could be the dream ticket.

Larger groups might prefer self-catering accommodation to spend more time together. Or, you may appreciate the space of an all-inclusive hotel.

In terms of destinations, places such as Spain, Portugal and Turkey have a great range of all-inclusive and self-catering options. However, in some destinations (such as Egypt or Cuba), self-catering breaks are much harder to arrange, so an all-inclusive break is ideal.

With TravelSupermarket, finding the best all-inclusive holiday deals is easy. Just use the search box to tell us where you want to go and when, tick the all-inclusive option, and browse the amazing holiday deals on offer. You can filter your results by price, star rating of hotels, and guest reviews.

When you’re browsing, keep these things in mind to make sure you're getting a deal that works for you:

• Is everything you want or need included? Does wi-fi cost extra, for example?
• Do you need babysitting as well as kids' clubs? While the clubs are usually free, babysitting often incurs extra charges
• Spa access is often included, though treatments are likely to cost extra
• Is food important to you? Look for hotels with multiple restaurants for more dining options.

If you’re looking to travel on specific dates (say, the school holidays) or have a hotel in mind, booking early will give you the widest choice of great deals. But if you’re flexible on dates and destinations, look for cheap last-minute all-inclusive holidays around a month before travel.
