I've used them a bunch for the 'all-inclusives' and have always had a great experience. The nice part about this is they understand the complexities of non-rev travel these days (a.k.a. getting bumped off of flights).....although if you're going on a honeymoon, imagine you'll be buying tickets as opposed to non-reving it. Either way, I highly recommend Perx...good stuff.

Great site. I have used them before, and would use them again. Heard that they also sell insurance for about $35, and if you get bumped, they would give you a credit that you can use within a year.
Tip: compare perx’s rates with those on the resort’s website, just to see who has the best deal. For example, we are planning a trip to Jamaica, and it will be cheaper for us to book directly with the resort than thru perx.

I agree with the above. I would also (like Wmarti) check with the resorts that you are looking at. They may offer a better rate The economy is still fairly slow so there are some good deals out there.
I also try and get some other hotel reviews (maybe a sight like tripadvisor) and get some insight from other people that recently stayed there. I don't trust Perx's system for rating hotels (3 star, 4 star, etc).
Anyway, I have used them a few times with excellent results.... Do your homework and call them to see if they can get you a better deal than by working through the hotel.... Have fun
