Travelers of all types find it hard to resist the all-inclusive resort experience — you can eat, drink and relax poolside to your heart's content. And savvy beach vacationers know which Caribbean islands and Mexican towns are perfect for these indulgent all-inclusive escapes. But what if you prefer to take your vacation a little closer to home — say, Florida, for example? Are there all-inclusive beach resorts in Florida?
Though the selection is quite small, we found a few resorts that, while not necessarily all-inclusive per se, give you more for your money than a typical hotel.

Located on St. Pete's Beach facing the Gulf of Mexico, the TradeWinds Island Grand has everything you could want for the perfect beach vacation. It's only a half hour's drive from Tampa International Airport, and the property also boasts a waterfront beach area complete with sun loungers and palm trees.
Though the waters of the Atlantic always tempt, there's no shame if you opt to hunker down in the hotel — they have 11 eateries ranging from poolside bars to fine dining restaurants, as well as tons of water sports and heated pools to keep you busy.
