Cuba sits a mere 150 km (0 miles) from the tip of Key West, Florida, but it might as well be a million miles away. Political differences and sanctions have made it a no-no for most Americans, with a few exceptions for charities, churches and journalists. More recently, the laws in the US have been amended to allow more people, provided that they go through an approved tourism group. For the rest of the world, Cuba has long been an amazing, unspoiled tropical gem with the opportunity to meet real people and experience real culture. All-inclusive resorts are a great way to see the place without a lot of unexpected expenses. Here are some great options for all-inclusive resorts in Cuba:
