Who decided the point was to spend *no* extra money on board? All-inclusive, to me, means that all the basics are included at such a favorable rate, that, I can actually afford to buy good drinks, gamble a bit, treat myself to a shawl from the shop, and yes, have a few spa treatments. I wouldn't pay $200 for any massage, land or sea, but there are numerous other spa treatments which are perfectly affordable and make my stay much more pleasant. True, these perks are not necessary, but, neither is taking a craft to shore to a tour, either. It's just one of your options that make the entire trip more delightment, and, more affordable because the trip is so affordable from the OUTSET. I can watch the sea go by, which is relaxing, or, I can get a pedicure so that I look cuter in my shoes when I go dancing. It's all part of my vacation and I don't think I've been robbed if I pay a little for that privilege. Spa treatments get a bad name.
