7 Romantic Things You Must Do For Your Honeymoon

6/19/2018

0 Comments

 
These are everything when it comes to the ultimate honeymoon experience!
1. Work with a Romance Travel Specialist
Just throwing it out there!  Working with an expert in romance travel will not only help you identify the perfect honeymoon location and resort, but we'll work with you to ensure the entire process is a breeze!
 
2. Tell People
Don't hide the fact that you're on your honeymoon! Of course, we don't expect you waltz around the place in your matching Mr. and Mrs. shirts, but a casual "we're on our honeymoon" to resort staff can certainly run in your favor. In fact, a lot of resorts award honeymoon credits and special gifts to newlyweds. So, feel free to profess your love!  (PS: A good specialist will do this for you even before you arrive on site.)
 
3. Limit Social Media
We get it – sometimes social media can consume you. But a honeymoon is a special time in your life that happens just once. Don't forget to pause, savor those beautiful moments, and just enjoy the person you love. Social media can wait until you're home.
 
4. Pack Your Lingerie!
It's time to bust out the sexy lingerie, ladies! Wow your man with something special – you (and he!) will be glad you did. 

5. Treat Yourselves
After months of stress, healthy eating, and exercise – you need a break. Take this time to indulge in some delicious dessert, have a spa day... heck, go skinny-dipping! You've earned it, girl!

​6. Catch the Sun
Such a simple thing, but watching the sun rise and set on vacation is magical. Be sure to set aside time to see both, if you can! However, if setting an alarm on your honeymoon seems a bit daunting, then maybe snuggling up on the beach with a glass of wine in hand would be a better option to end your day.
 
7. Capture Every Moment
Life is all about balance, and this certainly applies to taking picture on vacation. While it's important to enjoy the moment you're in, you won't want to miss capturing those perfect moments on your special vacation – so be sure to bring the camera along!

My Unico Experience

5/22/2017

#MyUnicoExperience
​
For months the team at All Inclusive Collection was raving about their new property called UNICO 20º87º Hotel Riviera Maya. It opened in March 2017, on time and fully prepared to welcome their first guests. I had been hearing incredible reviews from guests and agents who stayed at the property early on, and couldn’t wait for my own #MyUnicoExperience to come.
 
Arrival:  I arranged for a private transfer from the Cancun airport to Unico. The ride took exactly 60 minutes in normal traffic heading south past Playa del Carmen. I was greeted with a cold, scented towel and a fruity drink. Check in was quick, no wristbands needed.
 
App:  Before you leave home, download and sign in to the Unico App. The app allows you to view restaurant menus, order room or pool service, contact your local host (concierge), arrange housekeeping and wake-up calls, book spa treatments, order from the pillow menu, and view daily events. Pop-up events are also announced through the app.
 
Room: The standard room at Unico is the Alcoba Swim Up Pool room. I was given an Alcoba Ocean Front room, building 1, with full, sweeping views of the ocean. The rooms are modern and fresh and have a balcony with a hydro spa tub. Plan on falling in love with the robe hanging in your closet. You can purchase one to bring home for $100.  
 
Drinks: Creatively crafted cocktails can be found in the lounges where drink menus show off unique blends of local flavors and infused liquors. Try them all! I had fun sampling from the Shot Cart that made its way around the pool areas.
 
Dining:  I enjoy quality food and excellent service and Unico did not disappoint. The décor in the restaurant is beautiful and thoughtful. The staff has been trained well and knew how to execute even the minor details to perfection. Unico offers Italian, Asian, and Mayan cuisines, as well as a steak and fish house. I found a lot of little goodies and coffee in Café Inez as well.
 
Inclusions: One of the most unique things about Unico is their inclusion of unlimited spa treatments and local tours. You pay a 20% service fee/tax only on the services you book. The Unico website has a complete list of options you can choose from.
 
Spa: The gym and spa at Unico are beautiful! I booked The Esencia Signature massage, where two therapists work together in synchronicity. Amazing. I recommend pre-booking your spa treatments prior to arrival. The process is easy on the Unico website or through the app.
 
Private Events: I was at Unico for an industry event hosting over 250 guests. If you are considering a destination wedding or a corporate event, rest assured, the staff at Unico can put together one heck of an event for you! The difference is in the details, and Unico didn’t miss a beat.
 
Overall:  I think I have been introduced to my new favorite resort! Unico has everything and left me longing for nothing. The exciting part is that Unico is just a baby yet, and I can’t wait to see how it grows and evolves over the next year. The All Inclusive Collection team has delivered an amazing new resort to us. Congratulations guys! Job well done!
 
Romance Travel Group is an award-winning agency focused on destination weddings, honeymoons and romantic vacations. During our stay at Unico, we attended the annual Showstoppers conference where we awarded the Double Platinum agent, Triple Platinum agency, Top Wedding, and the coveted Game Changer awards! We love our partnership with Hard Rock and Unico resorts and our clients love the travel experiences we provide for them. Let us help you create your very own #MyUnicoExperience.

Creating Your Bucket List

4/10/2017

0 Comments

 
“Bucket List”

noun
A list of things a person wants to achieve or experience, as before reaching a certain age or deadline. “What’s on your 2018 bucket list?”
 
We all dream about far-away places and exotic experiences, but have you ever taken the time to put pen to paper as a way to help meet your travel goals? We’re all busy, but taking the time to write down and discuss your ideas is never wasted. Here are a few tips to help you put your bucket list together.

  1. Buy yourself a notebook or journal book of some kind and use it only for travel related entries. Brainstorm ideas, take notes, and elaborate on why you want to go. Destinations can be timeless, like Paris, or up-and-coming, like Cuba. Use hobbies and interests to help guide you. Love wine? How about a tour of Italy wine country? Love wildlife? How about a Tanzanian safari? Love movies? How about visiting filming locales? Let the ideas flow, and watch for new ideas to come along.
  2. Think about what you’d like to do while on vacation in each destination. This goes along with your hobbies and interests, but also what is considered “local” in each location. Knowing this will help determine how to organize your trips and how long you need in each area. Each city has something to offer. What are your “must-do’s” while you’re in town?
  3. Try not to put your travels off for too long. The earlier you begin, the more you can do. Organize your bucket list by age-appropriateness activities. For example, would you rather climb a mountain at 80 years of age, or 40? We all want to be fit and healthy as we enter our golden years, but perhaps checking off the more strenuous adventures should come first.
  4. Look for ways to make it happen financially. Create an account just for your vacation savings and add unexpected extras to it when you can. You can travel during off-seasons, which can also be much more enjoyable and peaceful, allowing you more of a “local” perspective. Remember, goals are easier to achieve when you can see what you’re aiming for. Make that trip deposit! Where there is a will, there’s a way.
  5. Keep your bucket list handy and up to date. Take it to dinner with your spouse or significant other, talk about it, make plans. Make it your treasure.  

​Got a bucket list plan already? We’d love to help make those dreams a reality! We have agents who specialize if destinations across the world who can help. Call us today at 507-237-6133  or visit www.romancetravelgroup.com.
