Beyond the discounted rates, RIU is layering in a strong set of added values for advisors and their clients where available. These include up to $2,260 in resort coupons, a complimentary guest for FIT and contracted groups, and access to the new Elite Club by RIU amenities and services. Guests can also enjoy free access to Splash Water World and RIU Party where offered, along with honeymoon inclusions, the Free Wedding Collection, and the newly launched Indulgence Beachfront Bliss Wedding Collection. Groups start at just five rooms, so advisors should consult terms and conditions for full eligibility.

RIU is also sweetening the deal for contracted groups with its Price Match guarantee. Advisors searching for the best possible rate can rest easy knowing RIU has them covered across six popular destinations: Mexico, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Jamaica, Aruba and Costa Rica. It's one more reason to book with confidence.

To help advisors sell RIU with confidence, the brand has released a new Travel Advisor Handbook, along with a Contactless Sales Kit offering digital brochures for easy sharing with clients and sales teams. Advisors are encouraged to book through their preferred tour operator and register bookings at riupartnerclub.com for additional benefits.

With savings, perks and price protection all in play, August is shaping up to be a strong month to sell RIU.
