The twist? We only pay for food and drinks when we want them — and it’s WAY more affordable than you might expect. In this video we: * Tour our private apartment + pool * Explore the beach and resort grounds * Try the buffet (without an all-inclusive plan 👀) * Break down the real cost of doing it this way * Head into Puerto Plata city for dinner (because we can!) For dinner, we check out Refugio Puerto Plata — one of the best parts of skipping all-inclusive is getting to explore local restaurants like this 🍽️ If you’re planning a trip to Puerto Plata and wondering whether to book an all-inclusive resort or not… this might be the perfect middle ground.
