I’ve been in business since 2005 and have always had my fair share of romance travel bookings. Honeymoons, anniversaries, even a few destinations weddings here and there.

Looking at my statistics, I have never booked as many anniversary/honeymoon trips as I have in 2023. I see the same thing is happening across the board, will all of my agents.

Love is in the air.

Just Wednesday, I realized a young couple on their honeymoon was not posting pics on social media of their experience. I have been planning travel for these kids and their families for well over a decade, and they are usually on social media every single day. I was concerned.

So, I emailed my friend at the resort, my favorite adult-only property in Punta Cana, and asked her to check on them. She’s the sales director for the resort, a rather busy lady as you can imagine.

That day, and the next, I received emails from both their butler and the customer service desk letting me know they had checked in on my couple, they were very happy with their experience, and I had no need to worry. They were just keeping their honeymoon private. Hurrah.

What are you doing for your special events in 2023 and 2024? Flowers and chocolates are always a win, there’s no denying that. But a get-away to an adult-only resort where you can reconnect and enjoy being pampered, isn’t that better?

Don’t we all need a break? I know our family vacation earlier this month proved to be a huge respite for everyone in my family. Every single member acknowledged that the trip was more than a trip, it was an opportunity to reset their stress levels, take a break, and just be happy alongside the people they love. Isn’t that what a trip should be?

If you can give us 15 minutes, we can dig into your perfect trip ideas and come up with the packages and locations that will most perfectly suit your expectations. But we do need those 15 minutes.

We need to know where you’ve been, what you liked and didn’t like about those trips. We need to know what you want to experience, and what you do not. We need to hear you, to allow you to paint a picture for us about the ultimate dream trip, and then allow us to work our magic.

Our magic, and it is magic, comes from nearly 20 years in this industry and our dedication to never recommending anywhere we haven’t tried first. I get some flack for that at times, but we stay true to that commitment. We are in it to win, for you.

Let’s talk romance travel in your near future, shall we? Love truly is in the air, and it’ll do you good to take a deep breath.

Joy
