Below we review nine all-inclusive honeymoon packages in Florida that will have you enjoying the best your honeymoon ASAP.
9 Best All-Inclusive Honeymoon Packages in Florida
Florida boasts some of the most beautiful beaches in the United States. It’s no surprise that you can find spectacularly romantic resorts on some of them. Often you’ll even have the option to add on romantic packages that can take your honeymoon to the next level. Below are nine of the best resorts in Florida with honeymoon packages that are sure to blow your mind.
The Ritz Carlton, Amelia Island
Amelia Island is on a remote barrier island off the coast of Florida near Jacksonville. This island is relatively quiet compared to other islands and areas of Florida. You’ll probably feel as if you have the entire beach to yourself, at least for part of your stay. What’s more romantic than having your own private beachfront?
The Ritz Carlton is not an all-inclusive resort, but this property offers an impressive variety of packages to choose from. Some of the most notable honeymoon packages include the Fire and Wine, Romance Package, Surrender Spa, and Beach Road Trip. They come with perks like romantic turndown service, hotel credits to use for anything on-site, and luxury suites with a fire table on the terrace.
The rooms have recently been renovated, so you can expect modern luxury no matter which suite you choose. There are six restaurants and five bars, including a AAA 5-Diamond restaurant on-site. Because of the many dining and drinking choices, it almost feels like an all-inclusive, but at a whole new level of luxury. Concierge service is exceptional when it comes to planning unique daily activities for an extra special stay as well.
Kimpton EPIC Hotel, Miami
The Kimpton EPIC Hotel is in the heart of culturally rich and romantic Miami, providing a highly walkable location. There are multiple popular attractions within walking distance, including Bayfront Park and Biscayne Lady Yacht Charters. But one of the reasons many book a stay here is that it’s close to less-crowded beaches. It’s perfect if you and your partner want a more tranquil space away from the craziness of Miami.
The Kimpton EPIC Hotel offers many complimentary activities and amenities that don’t require purchasing a package. That includes loaner bikes for exploring the city and a nightly social hour with wine. The Leisure Family Getaway Package can be booked just for two. It comes with tickets to an assortment of fun activities around the city and a $100 dining credit.
The best way to take advantage of all the amenities and services that Kimpton offers is by being an IHG One Rewards member. Joining this program comes with no cost but offers benefits like a late checkout, breakfast for two, a spa credit, Wag Premium access, and more. And, yes, your dog can stay too, without any extra fees.
Acqualina Resort and Residence, Miami
For all you beach lovers, Acqualina Resort is located on 4.5 acres of beachfront property in Sunny Isles Beach! That’s a huge property for a hotel in Miami. The resort itself will make you think you’ve left the States and ventured to the Mediterranean. It boasts villa-style accommodations, a Greek/seafood restaurant, and gorgeous beachfront adults-only pools.
Acqualina Resort has a few inclusive packages that are likely to be perfect for your honeymoon. We think the best is the Breakfast Inclusive package. It includes a huge breakfast spread each morning, a daily spa credit, and a welcome amenity. The resort also offers a spa package, and during the month of February, the All For Love package.
In addition to the all-inclusive packages, there are many other special offerings here that will make your honeymoon even more romantic. You might enjoy an intimate beachfront dinner, reserve a private cabana by the adults-only pool, book the private spa suite which has a steam room and shower, and order romantic turndown service.
Bungalows, Key Largo
Bungalows Key Largo is one of the only true all-inclusive resorts in Florida. Everything is included in the nightly rate, such as all food, premium alcoholic beverages, cabanas, watersport equipment, yoga classes, transportation in town, and cruiser bikes. And it offers an ideal location on the pristine Florida Keys coast with its Caribbean feel making it seem as if you’ve left the US.
On top of the standard inclusions, this resort offers both honeymoon and babymoon packages. The honeymoon packages include sparkling wine, chocolate-covered strawberries, romantic turndown, and a cheeseboard. You’ll also get a $200 spa credit and a private charter boat for a day.
Even without adding the honeymoon package to your stay, you’re sure to enjoy an ultra-romantic experience. Each room sits within its own separate bungalow surrounded by lush greenery providing a secluded feel. You’ll also have an outdoor soaking tub and a shower on your private terrace, complete with breathtaking views.
Little Palm Island Resort and Spa, Little Torch Key
Little Palm Island Resort is the only resort in the US located on a private island. You are literally as remote as you can get, at least without having to buy your own island. It will make you feel like you are in the West Indies, with the thatch-roofed accommodations minus TVs or phones to eliminate interruptions from the “real world.” There may be no better place to connect with nature and fully focus on one another.
The resort also has an indoor/outdoor spa for extra pampering and all guests enjoy complimentary use of paddleboards and kayaks, including tandem options for a more romantic paddle. Plus, the impressive concierge service can arrange for just about any type of excursion or tour you’d like, including sailing, scuba diving, or deep-sea fishing.
There are a few different packages available to choose from at Little Palm Island. The all-inclusive package is the Culinary Paradise Package which comes with a bottle of champagne, breakfast, a three-course lunch, a four-course dinner, and a $100 daily spa credit per person. You can also choose an adventure package or a breakfast package.
Ocean Key Resort and Spa, Key West
Ocean Key is at 0 Duval Street, the most famous street in Key West. It’s renowned for its nightlife hotspots like Sloppy Joe’s Bar, a National Historic Landmark that opened nearly a century ago. You’ll be just steps from Sunset Pier too, where locals and visitors gather to watch one of the world’s most impressive sunsets every day at dusk.
When you’re in the mood to just stay in and relax, this resort also offers one of the best pool views around along with three restaurants. Many resorts and hotels in Key West don’t have even one dining venue. Plus, no matter what room you book, you’ll enjoy a fabulous view. All of the suites overlook either the ocean or Duvall Street. Just imagine watching the waves crash from bed on your relaxed honeymoon. Or, join in on the party right from the comfort of your own balcony.
Ocean Key has a variety of inclusive packages, such as an adventure package, the Plan-Ahead Paradise, and the Safe Harbor package. The best package for your honeymoon is the Romance in Paradise package. It includes an oceanfront room, champagne, a $100 daily spa credit, and a $100 daily food and drink credit. Even if you don’t book a package, if you book directly through the resort website you’ll get two free drinks every day of your stay.
Whether you want to melt into the rich history of Key West or party on Duvall Street, Ambrosia is a great centrally located hotel. It’s a smaller, boutique-style property that will make you feel like you’re staying in your own little Key West Home. Despite its size, there are three pools and it offers a variety of accommodations types.
Ambrosia’s packages are a bit different than what you would think of when you hear “all-inclusive.” The hotel focuses on the experience rather than the food. Its romance package includes champagne, chocolate truffles, flowers, a couples massage, and a sunset sail with champagne for two. It also offers an adventure package that includes excursions and bike rentals.
The resort is set in an old tropical nursery, making it feel as if you’re immersed in a fairytale garden. We think the best room is the Jungle room which backs to the garden and has a private porch leading to the pool. However, the honeymoon suite comes with a two-person Jacuzzi tub and a canopy bed. Each room is unique and worth a look.
Henderson Park Inn, Destin
Henderson Park Inn combined the feel of an intimate little inn with the services and luxuries of a full-scale resort. An adults-only hotel, it’s located right next door to Henderson Beach State Park. It’s secluded from Destin’s crowded area and located directly on the beautiful white sand beach.
There are many different packages to choose from to make your honeymoon more inclusive at Henderson Park. The best package for a honeymoon is the Romance Package. It includes a customized playlist, flowers, romantic turndown, wine, and desserts. The hotel also has a breakfast package that includes your daily morning meal at its beachside cafe.
Each suite at Henderson Park has a very homey feel and ample space. They all come with huge porches overlooking the ocean, and rustic furnishings for more of a beach house feel. But what we love the most is the access to a private adults-only beach and Henderson State Park. What’s more, enjoy complimentary kayaks and paddleboards, beach service, and beachside games.
Tradewinds Island Grand Beach Resort, St. Pete Beach
Tradewind Islands Grand Beach Resort is massive, with over 28 acres of beachfront property. Plus, you’ll have access to 12 more acres at neighboring RumFish Beach Resort. The facilities are wide-ranging with tons of activities, five heated pools, and five restaurants. No matter what kind of honeymoon experience you want, there’s something for you here.
Tradewinds’ Romance package is the perfect option for your honeymoon. You’ll get a $100 credit towards romantic dinners at Palm Court Italian Grill or RumFish Grill. Plus, there will be champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries waiting in your room.
What else makes Tradewind Islands Grand Beach Resort such a standout property? Because of the long list of unique features, you’ll never get bored here. Other highlights include a giant aquarium, floating cabanas, water slides, a surf simulator, poolside movies, a zipline, and paddle boats. And, it’s all included in your resort fee.
What Does All-Inclusive Mean in Florida?
Florida is home to a few true all-inclusive resorts with food, drinks, activities, and entertainment all included. However, these resorts are pretty rare. The better news is that most Florida resorts have packages you can purchase on top of the nightly rate, making your stay more inclusive.
The inclusive packages can be as minimal as including daily breakfast and resort fees to use on-site amenities. However, a large number of Florida resorts do have complex packages. These packages often include credits to use for anything at the resort such as spa treatments, all your meals, cocktails, and at least some activities.
