sell out in advance.

Look for packages
that include both to
maximize savings.
Consider amenities
Excursions can be
costly. Instead, choose
a resort with loads of
complimentary on-site
activities, like snorkeling,
biking, water sports,
cooking demos and
craft classes. Or, if you
just want to chill on the
beach, consider a resort
with fewer amenities as
they are often cheaper.
Family vs. adult-only
Even when not travelling
with tots, consider a
family resort. Adult-only
properties are generally
pricier and many resort
chains now offer adult-
only areas with a family-
friendly price tag.
Choose ChildCare
If you are taking the
kids, check which resorts
include gratis childcare
or kids’ club activities to
avoid babysitting bills.
