My wife and I are looking to book an all inclusive holiday early May this year. My wife is recovering from cancer and the time we’re going will correspond with her 40th birthday. Thanks to parents we have a greater budget than we usually would and, for the 1st time in 10 years +, we’ll be child free! Top end spend would be £2,500 per person.
We’re struggling as location isn’t hugely important as we just want somewhere to relax and indulge in some good food. If there were excursions great but also it wouldn’t be the end of the world for we didn’t leave the resort. Ideally somewhere with multiple restaurants without surcharges.
We’ve looked at Sandals but I get the feeling they’re overpriced based on the cache of the brand (please correct me if I’m wrong).
We did Mauritius for our honeymoon and have been looking at the Maldives for this holiday but appreciate that the location isn’t the most important factor if you’re not leaving the resort.
I’m looking for advice and suggestions as there are literally thousands of options and we’re struggling.
Thanks in anticipation.","comment":[{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51980376","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"cis_groupie"},"datePublished":"2024-01-14T14:38:34.000Z","text":"If you can put up with the long flight time then take a look at the Domican Republic"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51979441","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"yorkie12"},"datePublished":"2024-01-14T12:08:19.000Z","text":"Have you thought about a cruise?
