Honeymoon and destination wedding planning just got a whole lot easier, thanks to Linda Dancer, a seasoned romance travel expert with nearly 30 years of experience. Linda, who specializes in luxurious destinations across the Caribbean, Mexico, and Hawaii, recently shared her insights on the hottest new resorts and trends. From all-inclusive getaways to personalized services and sustainable designs, Linda’s travels provide invaluable expertise for couples planning their dream celebrations.


Discovering Mexico’s Latest Gems
Linda’s recent travels took her to Mexico twice, where she explored new and exciting resorts. Flying into the newly opened Tulum airport, she noted how this hub significantly reduces transfer times to the burgeoning hotel scene in Tulum. Among the standout properties were Secrets Playa Blanca and the TRS Coral Hotel in the Costa Mujeres area. Offering both adult-only and family-friendly accommodations, these resorts cater to diverse needs, making them ideal for destination weddings.
A crucial advantage of Linda’s hands-on experience is her ability to evaluate logistics. Whether it’s the distance between accommodations or transportation options—golf carts, boats, or walking paths—Linda ensures couples understand the nuances of each location to plan seamless celebrations.
Over-the-Top Luxury: Impressions Isla Mujeres
Linda also highlighted the incredible Impressions Isla Mujeres, an exclusive boutique resort with just 125 rooms. Accessible only by private catamaran, the experience begins the moment you arrive at their pier, greeted with drinks and unparalleled service. The resort epitomizes luxury with personalized butler service, rooftop pools, and breathtaking ocean views.
For couples wanting an elevated experience while staying at larger properties, Linda recommends Secrets Impressions Moshe, a resort-within-a-resort concept. This offers access to all amenities at Secrets Moshe while providing guests with the intimacy and personalized attention of the Impressions tower.
Instagram-Worthy Resorts
Modern couples often seek Instagrammable moments, and these resorts deliver in spades. Linda shared how designers strategically incorporate natural beauty into the architecture, like plexiglass decks with unobstructed ocean views and sunset-facing structures. Small touches, such as robes and slippers for breakfast-in-bed photos, also create memorable experiences.


Sustainability Takes Center Stage
Sustainability is more than a trend—it’s becoming a core value for many resorts. In Mexico, properties integrate local wood, stone, and other natural materials into their designs, creating a warm and authentic atmosphere. Some resorts even engage local communities, such as commissioning handmade lamps from incarcerated artisans, supporting families and preserving traditional craftsmanship.
Personalized Butler Service
For couples seeking unmatched convenience, resorts offering butler services elevate the stay. Linda explained how butlers assist with everything from dinner reservations and spa bookings to ensuring dietary restrictions are communicated to chefs. With direct communication via apps or WhatsApp, couples can relax knowing every detail is handled.
Why Linda’s Expertise Matters
Planning a honeymoon or destination wedding can be overwhelming, but Linda’s knowledge ensures couples make informed choices. From evaluating unfinished resorts like the Ava Hotel in Cancun to vetting the logistics of family-friendly properties, her insights help create unforgettable experiences.
Whether you’re dreaming of a luxurious boutique resort or a sustainable haven, Linda Dancer’s expertise ensures your honeymoon or destination wedding is as perfect as your love story.
