Our “Hidden Gem” - Rachel

We are working with Rachel Kaufman and Hidden Gem Travel as our direct Travel Agent for accommodation bookings. If you have any questions regarding the resort, room categories, how the promo code works, or anything else, please email Rachel at: weddings@hiddengem-travel.com. Rachel (or her assistant Blake) will reply to emails within 1 business day. You can also schedule a phone call with Rachel by clicking the "View" button in this section. Rachel will be able to answer any questions for U.S. guests, and has limited information on what she can advise for U.K. guests. Rachel is super helpful and will be more than happy to recommend flights, discuss the resort and even things to do outside of the resort. While Rachel cannot advise U.K. residents on entry requirements to the Dominican Republic, some information is provided in the FAQ section.

Staying at the resort

We have a promo code set up specifically for guests of our wedding which entitles you to discounted resort rates. To make use of the discount you are required to use the promo code when making your booking. The promo code is only valid for bookings made direct with the resort, it will not work with any third party website such as Expedia etc. Additionally, we have been fortunate to have Rachel negotiate an extension of our promo code meaning the discounted rates are available for any duration between July 20 - August 3, 2025 (7 days prior to the wedding and 7 days after the wedding) so you're welcome to make your stay a full holiday in the Caribbean! Important information about booking at the resort: - When you make a booking you will be required to make a $1 payment authorisation. No further payment will be required until 30 days before your arrival. - You have the flexibility to modify (or cancel) your reservation an unlimited number of times until May 21, 2025. - The promo code is only valid on bookings made by May 21, 2025, therefore please bear in mind if you book or modify an existing booking after this date it will be subject to the resort's regular rates at the time. - Rates are locked for guests, BUT rooms and availability are not guaranteed.

Discount Code - LMWJUL25FPC (US code); LMWJUL25FPCROW (UK code)
