It’s best to plan as far ahead as possible. These rooms are in high demand, and some properties only have one (or a handful) to offer. When comparing amenities, consider what’s most important to you: a stunning view, a plunge pool, a spa with a couples’ suite, inclusive meals or experiences, or all of the above. If your top priority is staying within budget, take a closer look at package deals: These generous bundles may include Champagne and chocolates, daily breakfast, spa treatments, private dinners, airport transfers, early check-ins and late check-outs, and more. Direct bookings are recommended for the most competitive prices—and to ensure the manager knows you’re celebrating a special occasion in advance of your arrival. (With any luck, a complimentary upgrade could be in the cards.)
