Akumal, Mexico
Akumal means "Place of the Turtle" in the Mayan language, and if you snorkel here, you just might see one swimming alongside you. (Don’t touch it, though. That’s prohibited by law.) You’ll definitely see coral and beautiful fish in the clear, sparkling waters. This tourist-friendly little town is about an hour south of Cancun—but it seems light-years away.

All-inclusive resorts can get a bad rap. Whether they’re inauthentic to a place, have bland or cheesy design, serve mediocre food and watered-down drinks, or attract rambunctious crowds—we've all heard the horror stories. But like every case, there are outliers; ones that break the mold and offer incredible bang-for-your-buck.
