 | Re: So after considering Europe, Califormia, Mexico for our vacation we decided on .... It is so nice there!!
 We didn't do all inclusive b/c we heard how awesome some of the restaurants there were - and they were incredible.
 
 We would spend about $60 to $100 on dinner a night.
 For breakfast we would just grab bagels or donuts by the beach and then a small snack for lunch.
 
 Some of our favorite restaurants were:
 
 El Gaucho - an Argentinian steak place and
 Flying Fishbone - the most romantic place I have ever had dinner... you sit with your feet in the water at sunset... totally incredible.

 | Re: So after considering Europe, Califormia, Mexico for our vacation we decided on .... I was thinking it wouldn't be so bad to not do an all-inclusive, because the place we are considering going to has a kitchen in the room.  It is better for me to make my own breakfast anyway (IBS, lactose intolerant) so I was thinking about making breakfast there and maybe sandwiches for lunch, then going out for a nie dinner every night.  Thats what we did in Hawaii and it worked out great! |

I don't remember how much we spent on meals, but I wouldn't do all inclusive if I were you, there are too many great restaurants to try. Your idea about making breakfast and lunch sounds good. Have a great time !  |

 That is such a great way to save money, and it is fun to dress up and go out for a nice dinner each night. That is what we do at disney.
