Princess Senses The Mangrove takes Caribbean and Jamaica wedding-resort titles
Princess Senses The Mangrove, an adults-only resort with water villas, was named Caribbean's Leading Wedding Resort and Jamaica's Leading Wedding Resort at the World Travel Awards, part of 11 industry awards for Princess Hotels & Resorts Jamaica during World Travel Week Jamaica 2026.
Clients may cite the titles when comparing it with Sandals, Excellence and Hyatt Inclusive options. Before using the award as a selling point, check its wedding packages, group concessions and advisor commission against those competitors. World Travel Awards are voting-based, so treat the titles as a marketing signal rather than a quality audit.
Travelzoo prices a Ladera suite at $1,999 for three nights
Travelzoo is selling a suite for two at Ladera in St. Lucia for $1,999 for three nights, including breakfast and transfers. It claims savings of up to $1,685. That claim is unverified.
Ladera's Pitons-view suites are popular with honeymooners, so clients may bring this price to you and ask you to match it. Compare it with your supplier rates and amenities, then show added value instead of matching on price alone.
