Honeymoon perks?

SDinSD, on July 21, 2016 at 12:25 AM Posted in Honeymoon 0 12

We're going to Cabo after our wedding for a mini-moon and I'm wondering if resorts still offer any honeymoon perks? I remember seeing one of the "Vacation" movies and the couple said that they're on their honeymoon and got upgraded and I'm wondering if that actually happens in real life and in the modern world? Any advice on how to get those free perks or an upgrade? It's off-season there so I don't think the resort will be at capacity and might have space to upgrade us but not sure if I'll actually have the courage to ask... Has anyone else? Smiley smile

    No suggestion but I was at Cabo in February and it's so perfect there. Enjoy!

    Where are you staying? We looked into secrets resort in Cabo and I know they offered a honeymoon package. I think it was only a bottle of champagne and some other stuff though. Maybe look on your hotels website and see if you see anythjng

    Try wearing a wifey/hubby shirt when you travel. I heard that some people get perks from that alone.

    We did when we went to Mexico, all we had to do was sit through a presentation on our last day. His sister gave us our honeymoon through her time share so it was one of those things. But we got a honeymoon suite and ocean view for a week. It was worth it

    I like hearing that there's a honeymoon suite! And I'll take a bottle of champagne delivered to our room, even though we're at an All-Inclusive. ;-D I am mostly interested in a room upgrade so we have a bigger/better room since I got the basic. I'll try the t-shirt trick, even if they don't do it, seeing my man in a "hubby" t-shirt will be worth it! :-)

    Thanks for the feedback!

    We had to supply a copy of our marriage certificate and we got upgrade, champagne in the room along with a tray of appys. We also got a honeymoon sash for our door, and a very special dinner at one of the al la cartes. We had rose petals on the table and champagne and our own server and a meal just for us.

    We are staying at a secrets and if we bring a wedding invite or a copy of our marriage license we get some upgrades. It can't hurt to tell them and see if upgrades happen.

    Call where you're staying and ask. Or google "hotel name + honeymoon perks". We got a free Oceanside dinner (normally a few to upgrade to that from normal all inclusive package) and we got upgraded to an ocean side suite. It was also shoulder season so a lot more rooms were open so it was easy to do that

    Look into your hotel as suggest, we will receive a turn down service, a bottle of champagne, massage for 25 min (couple), and a candle light dinner for two on the beach. My travel agent worked it out and our hotel is also all inclusive

    Hey guys! I am so excited for all of the Brides to Be... As a Travel Agent, many of the resorts do offer upgrades for Honeymoons. It really depends on the resort that you go to as to what they offer. Some will offer a free dinner on the beach, others will offer a bottle of champagne, some will offer a romantic dinner at one of the restaurants, and last but not least there are some that will offer free massages. I see that you are going for a mini-moon, some of the resorts require a certain length of stay to get the perks.

    I would definately use a travel agent if you have not already booked. We are the professionals and know the resorts that upgrade and the ones that do not- if that is important to you. We also go to bat for you if something happens at the resort. And it is totally free service! Can't get much better than that!

    We're in Italy, but so far, every hotel has upgraded us and all but one offered complimentary champagne. Our travel agent must have advised them we're on honeymoon.

    We didn't get upgraded, but we did get a bottle of champagne in our room fridge, rose petals on the bed, and breakfast delivered to the room one morning.
