hen it comes to vacations, the choices are limitless. Your time and money are precious commodities, so you want to make sure you are choosing wisely. A couple of choices that provide a lot of value are cruises and all-inclusive resorts. These are the two types of vacations that my business receives the most inquiries about. They are perfect for just about everybody, and believe it or not, even a budget-minded traveler can find something that won’t break the bank. A cruise allows you to see the world, several destinations at a time, and unpack one time. Your cruise fare includes your accommodations, onboard meals, entertainment and daily activities. cater to hunters by processing the wild game provided by hunters.

Families will enjoy the discounted pricing for third and fourth passengers in a stateroom. There are great programs for children and teens. While the kids are having fun, mom and dad can enjoy some peace and quiet in the adult-only areas. And when it comes to exploring exciting destinations, there are excursion options for all activity and interest levels. If sailing the high seas is not up your alley, an all-inclusive resort might be the perfect vacation for you. Like a cruise, just about everything is included in the price. Families can select a family-friendly resort where the kids can enjoy their very own kid’s club while you are enjoying a spa treatment or a relaxing nap in a hammock. Many resorts also offer reduced rates for children 12 and under. If you are traveling without kids, you may prefer to stay in an adults-only resort.

The big key to saving money on a vacation is flexibility. Instead of a room overlooking the ocean, you might consider a room overlooking the resort gardens. You can also have a big cost savings based on the time of year you travel. Instead of going during peak travel season, look at dates that are in low or shoulder season. Book early, not last minute. Those last-minute offers are very limited and not always available. Package your airfare, resort stay and transfers for bundled savings. And always do price comparisons to find the best deal. With a little extra money in the bank, you will be all set to relax, explore, reconnect, and make some lifelong memories. -Chamber member Carrie Chipman represents Cruises, Inc.
