Iberostar Selection Cancun lands here because it does the math that most budget all-inclusives don't: calm water for younger kids, actual structured programming through Star Camp, and zero guessing on food costs. The dated vibe is real—this isn't Instagram-ready—but you're paying for predictability and safety in the shallow Punta Nizuc bay, not marble lobbies. If you've got kids under twelve and want to know exactly what they're eating and where they're spending their day, this checks the box without the sticker shock.
