Our Favorite 2019 Black Friday And Cyber Monday Travel Deals

Pack your bags and call the pet sitter, because these tropical resorts are keeping the holidays warm and affordable.

When Black Friday arrives, you could spend hours in line at a local retail store and ultimately practice your MMA skills when duking it out with hundreds of other bargain hunters over a discounted blender. (I'd go to hell and back to protect my Ninja, so I get it.) Fortunately, most retailers had enough of the senseless violence years ago and made their amazing deals available online, so you can also spend hours watching countdowns and hoping you get a Roomba in your shopping cart faster than anyone else.

Or, hear us out, you can forget about that discounted laptop and focus on our favorite Black Friday and Cyber Monday bargains: travel deals, baby. The Caribbean, Hawaii, Mexico—there's something for everyone. The hardest part will be choosing, but at least you won't need to channel your inner Braun Strowman to pry these deals away from the next guy.

(It goes without saying that every deal presented here will include restrictions, with some even featuring blackout dates. Please make sure you read the details before booking. We will also be updating deals throughout the week leading up to Black Friday.)

The Caribbean

We love the Caribbean because it is convenient and every island offers a little piece of paradise, as well as something unique and unforgettable. We love Caribbean travel deals because it takes all of the above and makes it much more affordable.

Atlantis Paradise Island, Nassau, Bahamas

The deal: Beginning on 11/28 and running through 12/2, the popular Nassau resort is hosting "Five Days of Savings" and guests will be able to visit the Atlantis website for a daily deal that will include 35 percent discounts on rooms, as much as $600 in resort credits, free nights and even savings on airfare.

Bequia Beach Hotel, St. Vincent and the Grenadines

The deal: Haven't heard of Bequia? Start reading and then start booking at the Bequia Beach Hotel. (Remember: it's pronounced "BECK-way.") Guests who book between 11/29 and 12/2 can receive up to 25 percent off their rooms for trips running from 5/1/2020 through 12/20/2020.

Casa de Campo Resort & Villas, La Romana, Dominican Republic

The deal: A favorite spot of celebrities, including Michael Jordan, J-Lo and the Queen Bey herself, Casa de Campo Resort & Villas exists as if it's on its own island in another world, and it just doesn't get much better than that. Well, unless there are discounts. Guests who book between 11/29 and 12/2 will receive 50 percent off rooms and villas, with the latter starting as low as $549 a night.

Even better, the travel window runs from 11/29 all the way through 12/31/2020. Be prepared to book, as the deals will go live at 12 a.m. ET on Black Friday.

Curtain Bluff, Antigua

The deal: What sets Curtain Bluff apart from most Caribbean resorts is the two beaches that offer two different attitudes. Bay Beach is where guests will spend their days enjoying a variety of activities, while Surf Beach is where they'll go to get some rest. And between 11/29 and 12/2, guests who book at least a five-night stay in a junior suite or higher, for travel running through 3/27/2020, will receive a $300 credit for any in-resort experiences, including gourmet meals and cocktails, spa treatments, tennis lessons, snorkeling and more. Guests can book directly to redeem credit using code GETAWAY300, or call Curtain Bluff (toll-free from US: 888-289-9898 or 268-462-8400) to redeem credit mentioning code GETAWAY300.

Grand Isle Resort & Spa, Exuma, Bahamas

The deal: Located on Great Exuma, this Four Diamond Award, ultra-luxe property boasts stylish, thorough accommodations (full gourmet kitchen, anyone?) in addition to an 18-hole golf course, an infinity pool and the very cool 23° North Beach Club.

Park Hyatt St. Kitts, St. Kitts/Nevis

The deal: What we love about St. Kitts and Nevis is the appreciation of the regional history and how that shows in the simplest things, like a hotel's architecture and style. That is certainly on display at Park Hyatt St. Kitts, where guests who book between 11/29 and 12/2 receive 30 percent off any suite (use the code HS30O) for trips running from 11/29 through 3/20/2020.

Jade Mountain, Saint Lucia

This haven for romance set in one of the most breathtaking locations in the Caribbean is offering 25 percent off the Star and Moon Sanctuaries, plus all-inclusive food and beverage for stays of four nights or more. A portion of the proceeds will go to the local animal organization Helpaws. Guests can book through Dec. 2 for travel windows that run from 3/1/2020 to 7/14/2020 and 10/16/2020 to 12/19/2020.


Mexico

Margaritas, anyone? At our favorite Mexican resorts, the weather is almost always perfect, and the crowds and pool traffic are rarely bad (probably because we know when to visit). And now with Black Friday comes our other favorite part—even better rates.

Mahekal Beach Resort, Playa del Carmen

The deal: There's always something exciting happening in Playa del Carmen, as this coastal spot is like one big party that never ends. And if you do want to occasionally tune out the fiesta, there's more than enough beach to keep you busy, not to mention the jungles and excursions to the incredible Mayan sites.

Mahekal Beach Resort's Cyber Monday sale allows guests who book between 11/25 and 12/6 (beware: there was also a pre-sale, so availability is limited) to enjoy up to 50 percent off rates for travel through 12/19/2020. Guests staying five nights or longer will receive a $200 food and beverage credit as well. As an added bonus, 10 percent of all bookings on 11/27 will be donated to local schools, and if you still need one more bonus, and if you somehow miss this generous booking window, the resort will still offer 40 percent off between 12/6 and 12/13.


Hawaii

For most people, Hawaii is the vacation of a lifetime. We save and save and save—and then save a little more—and when it's time to come home we pray to every god that it never has to end. These Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals go a long way in making this dream destination a reality for everyone.
