Budgeting Tips: How to Find Honeymoon Deals & Packages
Here are my favorite budgeting tips for booking the best honeymoon resorts in Thailand:
- Book Early: The best resorts fill up months in advance, especially from December to February. Early bookings = better deals.
- Travel in Shoulder Season: April, May, and September offer amazing discounts while still having decent weather. April is my personal favorite month in Thailand. It’s hot, but the sun is always shining.
- Look for Honeymoon Packages: Many hotels offer free perks like room upgrades, spa credits, and romantic dinners for honeymooners. Always mention it when booking! We sometimes say that we’re honeymooners just to get a special treatment.
- Compare Direct Hotel Prices vs. Booking Sites: Sometimes, booking directly through the hotel gets you better perks. Other times, sites like Agoda or Booking.com have unbeatable deals.
