5 years ago, when we got married, my wife and I took an all inclusive trip to Playa Del Carmen in Mexico (about 45min from Cancun) for $3k or so. This included the flight, transporation to/from Cancun, etc. We stayed at the Royal Hideaway resort. It was so enjoyable, my wife STILL talks about it and would want to go again.
I booked it via a local travel agent. Being rather busy at the time, I simply told her my budget, my timeframe, and that I wanted to do something "different".
This is where we went:
