The 10 Best All-Inclusive Resorts in the USA for Couples

There's something to be said for staying at an all-inclusive for a couple's getaway, honeymoon or anniversary trip. You have everything at your fingertips, but still have the freedom to venture off and explore if you'd like. While many all-inclusives are located in the Caribbean and Mexico, there are also several all-inclusive resorts in the US, many of which will be just a short drive or flight away. (Plus, no passport required.)

Here are some of the best all-inclusives in the US for cuisine, spas, luxury, activities and other categories that matter most when you're ready to hit the road for a lover's holiday or birthday trip.

The Point is the only Adirondack Great Camp from the Gilded Age that's open to the public.

Summer means boating, fishing, tennis, waterskiing, badminton, hiking, nature bathing, trail running, swimming and seaplane tours of the Adirondacks.
