What will the whole trip cost?
Room & pool
Match room names, the number of nights, pool privacy, bed layout and cancellation terms. A shared infinity pool and a villa pool are different products.
Flights & transfers
Add flights, return resort transfers and any necessary airport overnight. Ask who arranges the connection and what happens after a delayed arrival.
Meals & experiences

Honeymoon extras
Ask about eligibility, documents and stay requirements before counting any honeymoon benefit. Treat upgrades and special meals as unconfirmed until included in writing.
