Cozumel: All inclusive or pay as you go?

[revdon64]

We're sailing out of Miami on the Magic on 1/18, 5 nights with stops at CC and Cozumel. We decided that we're going to go to Paradise Beach in Cozumel, but are undecided as to whether it is worth it to get the all-inclusive package or not. Our group is 3 adults, 1 teen, and 2 children. the all-inclusive will run us just over $300 for unlimited food and drinks and all day at the beach club. Pay as you go is $3/person + minimum $10pp food/drink purchase. So it's $300 vs $78 with the benefit being that the bigger price tag includes as much as you want while the smaller price tag is likely to go up at least a bit. Anyone been to Paradise Beach that can speak to this? (BTW, my kids aren't interested in the fun pass for the inflatables in the ocean, so it's just beach/pool/food/drink)
