All inclusive beach resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico are extremely popular with families, thanks to beautiful beaches, fun watersports, and kids programs (not to mention the convenience of all-inclusive pricing.)

Below are five all inclusive beach resort suggestions that won't blow the budget. But first, a few points to note:

  • Don't Play Prima Donna. It's absurd to feel entitled to five-star service at a value resort; enjoy what the resort offers, focus on the best features, and be happy you're saving money.
  • Due Diligence. Read recent visitor comments at a site like TripAdvisor.com. Remember, there'll always be whiners, so read a broad sample, and read between the lines.
  • Do The Math. Be sure to factor in the cost of transportation to the resort: airfare plus ground transfers.
