Crowds

With crowds, some negative facts come along. Great groups of people lead to a lot of trash, the main streets and beaches of the island get noisy and dirty; also, restaurants and bars get full too so it will take more time from you to find a place to eat. Moreover, it is not so serious. If you are not really into multitude mood, all you need to do is select options that are not the most popular; maybe staying in an all-inclusive hotel could work well into your likes and tastes.



Prices

However, we are completely sure you can find something comfortable that fits into your vacation lifestyle with a bit of more work than usual. What we can recommend is to plan everything soon enough so you can get the best offers.

Look for regular rooms instead of those ones tagged with Honeymoon Suite, you can get a beautiful and comfortable room by a lower price without having to pay too much. Remember that love comes from you and your partner, not from a room.
