My wife and I finally were able to get pregnant after 4.5 years of TTC. We've been discussing a babymoon somewhere warm with beautiful beaches. We are looking to travel in April. Looking at Caribbean more than likely. We were hoping to stay at all inclusive but everywhere we look it seems like it is impossible to get to from Detroit with horrible flight times and layovers. Any suggestions from anyone that has been through it? I have been saving up for a couple years and really want a wonderful vacation for my wife and I after all she has been through and endured through Ivf.
That's really sweet. I stayed at The Excellence Club in Playa Mujeres, Mexico. It's adults only & all inclusive. We upgraded to a room with a private plunge pool & roof top terrace. It was worth EVERY PENNY. Congrats & good luck with your babymoon!

We recently did an all-inclusive in Cancun, and I really enjoyed it. We also did an all-adults resort - definitely recommend it for extra relaxation. I liked that there were a lot of direct flights to Cancun from the U.S. - maybe you'd have to do one layover from Detroit, but shouldn't be too bad. The Dominican Republic has cheap all-inclusive resorts, too.
