We have chosen a designated Destination Wedding Specialist & Travel Agent to personalize your trip. We ask that you please take advantage of the payment plans and flexibility offered by Jeni and book your room within our block.
Simply go to the “Room Options” section below and click on the room you want to book when you are ready.
Why book with Journeys Travel Inc.?
While Journeys can offer competitive prices, we also offer personalized service. Anytime you have a question or concern, you will be able to contact us directly and will not have to go through a call center and speak with a different person each time.
We have a 24-hour emergency line available for our clients if there should be any flight delays or problems at the resort while traveling. Again, instead of reaching a call center, you will reach one of our in-house travel agents, who will do what they can to resolve your problem.
Most importantly, our strong relationship with the resort helps to ensure that members of the wedding party that is booked through us will not be walked and placed in another resort due to overbooking.
Should you have any additional questions please contact our dedicated travel agent Jeni Chaffer via email: Jeni@Journeys-Travel.com or phone at 815-556-9435.

Important Notes from Jeni
Rooms are reserved at a discounted rate, on a first-come, first-served basis.
We will do our best to honor the discounted rate outside the room block, however, the early-booking discount is not guaranteed. The sooner you reserve with your deposit of $100 P/P, the better.
The discounted rate is an ALL-INCLUSIVE room rate and includes private group roundtrip airport transfers.
If you book at a different hotel/resort, you will not be able to partake in activities leading up to the wedding without incurring additional fees for daily passes starting from $150 a day/per person. These are subject to availability and not guaranteed. If you book at this resort, but not within the group room block, you will incur an additional fee of $125 per person to attend the wedding festivities.
You will receive a reservation confirmation and invoice within 48 business hours. Lastly, when booking your reservation please ensure you fill out the Credit Card Authorization form, it is the last step of the reservation process. To reserve your room and apply your deposit, please Click the room type of choice to Book Your Room!
We are confident in our pricing but if you were to find a cheaper “deal” outside of our Agency room block, please allow us an opportunity to research or price match. We would like to do our best to keep family and friends consolidated at the resort for accountability and ease of planning.
Itinerary
For your convenience, we have arranged for you to stay between 3 and 7 nights within our room block. If you’d like to stay longer, please let Jeni know and she can request additional nights.
We are so grateful that you are considering joining our celebration of Love in Sunny Mexico.
When working with Jeni, she will take care of all the details for you but we kindly ask that you arrive at the resort no later than 2 days prior to the wedding to take full advantage of the festivities we have planned for you. Planning of events is still in the works, but we intend to arrange some group activities for our guests!
Flights
We recommend booking your flights as early as you can for the lowest price and best availability
You will be flying into Cancun International Airport (CUN).
You may book it via your favorite airline. As a rule of thumb, most airlines publish their best rates and flight schedules 11 months away from departure with the exception of Southwest Airlines which posts their schedules only 6-8 months before travel. Consider using miles or credit card points if you have them.
If you prefer to book the flight with your resort package please contact Jeni or place a note on your reservation form. Please do not wait until the last minute – in our experience, flight pricing tends to increase as you book closer to the date.
Cancellation Policies
After your room is confirmed, cancellation policies are applied per the Room Block Contract.
From Deposit thru January 31st – $100 per person
From February 1st – March 30th – An amount equal to 10% of reservation plus $100 per person
From April 1st – May 31st – An amount equal to 30% of reservation plus $100 per person
From June 1st – Travel Date – 100% Penalty
Once cancellation is confirmed, any amount higher than the amounts listed above will be refunded to the card payments have been made with.
