planning a family trip to discovery cove next year and was wanting to know everything there is to know about this place. All-inclusive what does that mean?

there are different levels with the packages, if you really need answers, call them. Their staff was sooooo nice and helpful. FYI, some packages don't include swimming with the dolphins. That alone is about $299 per person for a few hours

we went to discovery cove in 2002 it is a lovely place the staff were all very lovely. I think now they have included breakfast and unlimited drinks and a few snacks in the price of admission you also get a lovely lunch which was very nice. If you want to swim with the dolphins it does cost more and you dont get very long they put you into small groups the water is very deep but it is an exprience we shall never forget .swimmg with the stingrays and tropical fish was great you do have to book in advance cos they only allow so many people per day so its never crowded like the other parks we enjoyed every minute of the day even though the afternoon the wheather changed and we had downpours thunder and lighting which you do have to get out of the water till it passes for saftey but i would recommend it it is a great place

Order a free brochure from the website. I did that. I have the brochure in front of me right. There's a flyer, along with the other pamphlets, that says "New for 2006, enjoy all-inclusive meals, snacks, and beverages with admission to Discovery Cove." So, yes, that means all your meals and beverages are included. To be more detailed (this is what it says on the back of the flyer)...
"This year, when you visit our exclusive tropical retreat to swim with dolphins, snorkel with tropical fish and rays, and hand-feed exotic birds, you'll also enjoy all-inclusive food and drink. Start with an eye-opening continental breakfast upon your arrival. Take a break at midday for a freshly prepared lunch at Laguna Grill. And refresh yourself with a full complement of snacks and beverages, available at convenient kiosks whenever you like."
Some people say it's really expensive, but it seems worth the few hundred dollars to me. They also include a 7-day pass to your choice of Bush Gardens or Sea World. That's pretty cool.
Anyway, hope I could help. Order your own brochure, they're free!
Have fun swimming with the dolphins!

My mom took me there for my 16th b-day, and I had a blast. I loved it, although we didn't swim the dolphins (separate and more expensive), we both had the time of our lives. From the second you walk in they cater to you, the staff is unbelievable, and the park is just as gorgeous. One meal is included (only one per person), and the food wasn't half bad (better then i expected at least). If your family loves the water and the creatures that live in it as much as I, then they'll love it too. Being able to swim so close and see them is breath taking, and if you want a little no water time they have a nice little bird sanctuary.
It has been awhile since I've been, but I can't wait to bring my fiance with me one day. Hope you and your family enjoy it as much as I did.
