What are some all-inclusive honeymoon destinations?

Short answer

All-inclusive honeymoons work well in the Caribbean, Mexico, the Maldives, Turkey, Egypt, Greece, Spain and Portugal. These resorts usually include meals, drinks, activities and sometimes spa access, so you can relax without watching your wallet.

All-inclusive resorts are ideal for honeymoons because they bundle accommodation, food, drink and often activities into one price. Popular destinations include the Caribbean, where islands like Barbados, Jamaica, Antigua and the Dominican Republic have many beachfront resorts. Mexico's Riviera Maya is another favourite, with large hotels and warm sea.

The Maldives offers overwater villas and all-inclusive packages, though flights are longer and the cost is higher. Turkey and Egypt give good value on the Mediterranean and Red Sea, with many resorts catering to British couples. Greece, Spain and Portugal also have all-inclusive options, especially on islands like Crete, Mallorca and the Algarve.

Before booking, check what the package actually includes. Some resorts cover only meals and local drinks, while others add premium spirits, water sports, evening entertainment and spa treatments. Read the small print and look for reviews from other couples.

If you want a quieter honeymoon, choose an adults-only resort. If you like activity, pick one with diving, sailing or fitness classes. Remember that all-inclusive does not mean you cannot leave the resort, so plan a few excursions to see the local area. Check travel advice and entry rules on GOV.UK before you go.
