FAQs

  • April is the tail end of peak season in Anguilla, with warm weather around 28°C, calm seas, and noticeably lower prices than the December through March rush. Hotels like Cap Juluca and Four Seasons still offer full Virtuoso perks through us, and availability is better than the winter months, which means you are more likely to get the room category you want.

  • For a honeymoon combining safari and luxury, the Greater Kruger area is the best choice. We recommend Singita Ebony Lodge and andBeyond Kirkman's Kamp for different price points and styles. April is excellent for game viewing because the rainy season has just ended and animals congregate around water sources. We pair Kruger with 2–3 nights in Cape Town for wine, dining, and coastal scenery.

  • For a luxury honeymoon, Cabo wins. It has better boutique properties, fewer large-scale resort crowds, and more dramatic scenery where the desert meets the ocean. Cancun is better for all-inclusive value, but the top-tier luxury properties are concentrated in Cabo and the Riviera Maya. We arrange Virtuoso perks at Las Ventanas, One&Only Palmilla, and Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos.
