l travelweekly.co.uk


ike many things, all-inclusives come in all shapes and sizes – and while all-out, blow-the-budget resorts certainly have their


market, great-value ones do too. And whether it’s a family looking for an action-packed stay, a couple seeking a culturally immersive break or a group of friends wanting a nightlife-filled, no-holds-barred holiday, there’s no shortage of options at the budget end – and they offer plenty more variety than the stereotypes might suggest. We’ve rounded up some of the best options to suit


every kind of client.


SO THEY WANT: A LOCAL FEEL Agapi Beach Resort, Crete All-inclusive doesn’t have to mean sitting by the pool all day – these days it’s all about cultural immersion, and Crete’s four-star Agapi Beach Resort has that down to a tee.


It hosts weekly cooking classes at the on-site taverna where guests can learn traditional recipes – with local chefs and pastry masters leading the sessions – alongside weekly Greek nights and folk dancing, while outside the resort, there’s a string of sights to explore, from the Bronze Age ruins of Knossos to the stone-built fortifications of Heraklion. 
