The ultimately is a decision you have to take. I can however share some insights.

2 Cocktails and 1 prosecco cost us about 100-110 USD every meal.
2 main course dishes and 1 starter typically cost us under 150 USD per meal. (Portions are fairly large)
Breakfast is 65 USD per person per day.
In room breakfast has some extremely reasonable options as well.
Unless you are a heavy drinker or plan to really hog out, I would recommend going Al-a-carte.
The full board and half board restrict your dining options and once you commit to them, I believe you cannot back out. You can, however, should you choose, ask your Aris Meeha to book you for full board or half board one day at a time. Go give it a shot for one day before deciding for the rest, do not feel pressured to commit to it over emails.
