All-inclusive Honeymoon for under 3,500?

We really wanted to stay at Holiday Inn Aruba but it looks like that is going to be a little over budget. Sandals doesn't have anything under budget either.

We really wanted to stay at Holiday Inn Aruba but it looks like that is going to be a little over budget. Sandals doesn't have anything under budget either. FH really wants oceanview room and we are staying 7 nights. We are not picky about where we go we just want somewhere in the Caribbean and good value for the money. Maybe somewhere that has some activities in walking distance.. where has everyone been and what was your experience?

    We are doing a week at Couples Sans Souci in Jamaica. We are spending about 3,500 with airfare. We have an oceanview suite.

    ETA: We booked through the Couples website.

    We booked 6 nights at an adults only all-inclusive in Punta Cana for under $2700 in April. That included direct flights, trip insurance, airport transfers and checked luggage. We used vacationexpress.com. It's totally possible!!

    We are cruising for our honeymoon Smiley smile 8 day southern Caribbean in a suite for 3500. That includes trip insurance. It stops in Aruba so that might be an option?

    This isn't all that helpful, but when you are searching always use incognito mode or clear your cookies. Websites will increase prices if they see you've been looking. They also change prices throughout the day and week based on how popular the site is.

    Aruba is ridiculously expensive, especially the restaurants. You will get a lot more for your money if you check out other destinations. Use the orbitz hotel codes to have more money off the room and use ebates.

    Have you checked with a travel agency? They might could help you.

    We went to a Couples resort in Jamaica for less than $3500 (all-inclusive with flights), and that was an upgraded room.

    ETA - Jakki, we were at Sans Souci....It was amazing. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

    My future in-laws went to Cancun last year in the November time frame for 4 days and it only cost them about 2500 for 4 days (flights and accomodations). I know certain times of year it is slightly cheaper and look into doing promotional trips. I am having a DW and my parents are coming down the entire week and for the first 4 days they are staying for only a few hundred dollars if they sit through a 2 hour sales pitch. I know I can give up 2 hours of my time for saving a few hundred dollars. I have also seen package deals where if you book flights and the hotel together then the prices are lower.
