Going on vacation, everyone is trying to get as much as possible for less money and often take tours to hotels with All inclusive service. Now more and more often the new name of the system of services - Ultra all inclusive ("Ultra all inclusive") began to appear and many still do not know what it is.
How to understand what the Ultra All Inclusive system means? To do this, you need to know what is included in the system of hotel services "All inclusive". The All Inclusive system is the complex of services that the hotel provides to its guests free of charge, that is, they are already considered paid, all other services are paid separately at the end of the stay. Such a system was proposed and implemented by the French company Club Med.
The cost of the system "All inclusive" includes:
- accommodation in a room of a certain level;
- meals during the day (breakfast, lunch and dinner);
- local drinks (non-alcoholic and alcoholic);
- some additional services, in every hotel they are different.
This means that the "Ultra All Inclusive" system is all those services that are provided under the extended "All Inclusive" system, plus free drinks of imported production become available and the number of additional services is increasing.
Depending on the addition of those or other services, there are many varieties of the Ultra All Inclusive system: elegant, high-class, VIP, super, deluxe, excelent, premium, royal class, ultra deluxe, maxi, imperial and others. Naturally, the cost of all these types will be different and it is determined based on what it includes, most often the payment for such a system is less than then pay for all these services separately.
Power in the system "Ultra all inclusive":
- Three meals a day on the principle of a buffet, where depending on the level of the hotel, you can be offered a choice of 3-10 dishes of each kind. And also a free visit to restaurants with kitchens from different countries.
- Snacks and fast food in the bars on the beaches and near the pools throughout the day.
- A great variety of baking and sweet afternoon, light evening snacks.
- Assortment of local and imported alcoholic beverages (in advance it is necessary to specify the time of free filing, since they can be served only until 24 hours of the night).
- Non-alcoholic drinks: carbonated, freshly squeezed juices for breakfast, hot and cold.
In the "Ultra All Inclusive" system, the type of food depends on you, since you choose your own meals. This food is advantageous and convenient when it is planned to stay permanently on the territory of the hotel, but if you plan a holiday full of excursions, it will be more profitable to take a tour only with breakfast.
Additional services in the system "Ultra all inclusive"
In each hotel the list of such services is different, but approximately it can be as follows:
- water non-motorized sports (catamaran);
- fitness club, sauna , Jacuzzi and Turkish bath ;
- billiards, table tennis, darts, tennis courts and a field for mini-football;
- pools and water park slides;
- sun loungers, umbrellas, towels;
- use of a safe in the room;

Most often, All Inclusive and Ultra All Inclusive systems are provided by hotels in Turkey and Egypt, but other countries interested in tourism development: Spain, China, Thailand and Tunisia are beginning to switch to them, based on the experience of Turkish hotels. But a certain standard set of services does not exist, so the list of services in different hotels can vary very much.
