How to book the best deals
Use a specialist agent. Kuoni, Trailfinders, and Hayes & Jarvis specialise in honeymoon packages and have relationships with resorts that get you upgrades, extras, and rates you can’t find online.
Tell them it’s your honeymoon. Agents flag honeymoon bookings to hotels, who often upgrade the room, leave champagne, or add spa credits — all for free.
Book in January-February. This is when travel agents launch their deals for the year. “Wave season” offers discounts of 10-30% on summer and autumn holidays.
Travel in shoulder season. May, late September, and October for the Mediterranean. November and late April for the Caribbean. Prices drop 20-40% either side of peak.
Compare direct vs package. Sometimes booking flights and hotel separately is cheaper. Sometimes a package deal is better. Compare both before committing. Use Skyscanner for flights and Booking.com for hotels to check the separate price.
Ask about free room upgrades. Many resorts upgrade honeymooners if availability allows. Ask when booking and again at check-in.
Is all-inclusive right for your honeymoon?
| Choose All-Inclusive If… | Skip All-Inclusive If… |
|---|---|
| You want to relax at the resort | You want to explore the local area |
| You don’t want to think about money | You want to eat at local restaurants |
| You’re going for a beach holiday | You’re going for a cultural/adventure trip |
| You want predictable costs | You’re a flexible, spontaneous traveller |
| You drink! (AI is great value for drinkers) | You don’t drink (you’re subsidising others) |

It's less worthwhile if you want to explore, eat at local restaurants, and be active outside the resort. For a relaxation honeymoon, it's ideal.
