Travel Information
We have reserved a variety of room choices for you to choose from. Air is not included in your reservation. The pricing listed on this page includes all-inclusive resort stay, including all food and drinks, all wedding activities and round-trip private transportation.
How To Book
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 Destiny-Brian 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 reserved at a discounted rate, on a first-come, first-served basis.
We will do their 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 shared roundtrip airport transfer.
You will receive a reservation confirmation and invoice within 24 hours from submitting your reservation form. Lastly, when booking your reservation please ensure to 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 for Destiny and Brian.
Flexible Payment Plans
In order to secure your room, please submit your deposit by January 10, 2022.
We have assorted rooms available – First Come, First Serve.
You don’t have to pay it all at once! Book early and take advantage of the Easy Monthly Payment Plan. It is interest-free! All you have to do is submit your secure payment form online. It will give JTI (or our affiliates) permission to debit your credit/debit card for any amount you choose and how often you choose.
A minimum non-refundable deposit of $100 per person is due no later than January 10, 2022 in order to secure your room and shared roundtrip airport/resort/airport transportation. Your final balance is due by July 1, 2022.
Itinerary
For your convenience, we have arranged for you to stay between 3 and 4 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 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 October 13th 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 Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR).
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 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 note your request on the 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.
Travel Insurance
We highly recommend all travelers to add Travel Insurance/Protection.
Benefits include trip cancellation (75%-100%) or interruption coverage, protection against travel mishaps, like delays, lost/damaged/delayed bags or coverage for medical expenses if you were to unexpectedly become ill or injured while traveling.
There are different policies to choose from. The easiest way to compare them is directly with the insurance company. A link to Journeys Preferred company is below but you may purchase insurance thru any entity.
