How to get the best deal on your Sandals or Beaches vacation

We all love a good deal when booking a vacation and it's important that the investment you're making in it comes with the confidence that you are truly getting the best price and value possible. But with the ever changing landscape of promotions and specials, how do you know if you're REALLY getting the best price on your vacation? Good news! As your professional travel advocate we're going to give you our "insiders tips" on how to save money on your next Sandals or Beaches getaway! // contact // (323) 744-1482

Travel Off Season (April - December)

Sandals and Beaches resorts are located throughout the Caribbean with the off-peak travel periods starting right after Easter into the middle of December (with the exception of holiday time frames such as Thanksgiving week) and early January. If you’re planning to travel during the peak times of spring break/Easter (middle of February through the week after Easter), Christmas into New Years, this will be a more expensive time to travel both with air and accommodations. If this is your ideal travel period, make sure to book in advance as far as possible and we'll help you with that!

Book as Far in Advance as Possible

Sandals and Beaches last minute deals rarely happen anymore, and are even less frequent during the peak travel season so one of our BEST strategies for getting you the best price on your Sandals or Beaches vacation is by booking early. When pricing air, Tuesdays into Wednesday are the best times to research price and as you approach your desired travel date most of the desired room categories will sell out. While some Sandals resorts are larger than others, overall these aren’t the big “mega resorts” that you find in Mexico and with the demand it's imperative to book early! TIP: A bonus of booking with Rivage Travel is that we will monitor pricing and if it drops, as long as the new rate/promotion allows, we can usually get your rate adjusted.

Be Flexible on Your Travel Dates

This is one of the biggest tips we can provide to our clients. Many times a midweek departure instead of a weekend will save money on your flights and while some airlines don’t offer daily service to every destination, if you're flexible we'll help you find the best travel dates that will save you the most money and get you to the beach the fastest! :)

Utilize Sandals Free Night Promotions

This is a frequent bonus with Sandals and Beaches for specific resorts and room categories. Most of this time this promotion will tend to include the 6th night or 7th night free and while it's typically offered on higher room categories, it’s a great way to add an extra night or upgrade your vacation without having to pay for it! Want to know what's available? We're here for you.
