Package holidays suck, all inclusive is boring (who wants to eat in the same place every night?). Get off the beaten track and live a little.
We even went to Cancun on a bed only basis with very little money (eating in downtown Cancun is a great experience, as long as you survive
)

Didn't see Playa de Las Chavs at all, except from the plane....

Not at all.Place I stayed in had loads of restaurants, a good variety of the local stuff, plus if you wanted chinese Italian etc etc it was all there, a few of them were a la carte also. Package holidays are popular for a good reason, they are all laid on and generally a hassle free option.
Did eat out a few times whilst in Cancun, but the quality was nowhere near the hotels standards.
