THE BEST HONEYMOON DESTINATIONS
Ionian Islands, Greece
Spend your days searching by boat or foot for unspoiled coves to call your very own. The balmy evenings are best used to explore the lively port villages and eat fresh-caught seafood from quaint tavernas.
Capri and The Amalfi Coast, Italy
This little island is big on style, so if you’re a pair of newlyweds looking to shop and tan then look no further. Plan to spend a couple of nights here and then make your way to Positano for the ultimate Italian getaway. Visiting the Grottos by boat is an absolute must!
Paris, France
Think classic, not cliché. Paree is the perfect city honeymoon. While away the afternoons walking the left bank, drinking in Montmartre and spend romantic evenings dining at Café de Flore. There could not be a more romantic place to commence married life; you will always have Paris.
Bedarra Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia
This is romance in over-drive. With only 16 villas nestled in a rainforest, you and a mere 30 other guests have ample opportunity to lap up the luxury at this exclusive hideaway. Choose to do nothing or visit nearby Dunk Island for a plethora of activities from day spas to skydiving.
The Maldives
The long jetties that lead to your freestanding villa will make your stay as secluded as possible. Start each morning by taking the mere 10 steps from your bed to plunge into pristine seas. Then relax, sunbathe and repeat.
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
With a myriad of resort and boutique style accommodation, Cabo offers something for every couple. With so many places specializing in all-inclusive packages, it is especially perfect for couples that don’t plan on venturing outdoors too much.
Seychelles
If it’s good enough for the royal honeymoon, it’s good enough for most. Make like Kate and Wills and bask in ultra blue seas and enjoy the ocean breeze from the open-air thatched huts that are standard in most resorts.
Seville, Spain
A honeymoon destination for cultured couples and night owls alike. The romance of Seville lies within the history and is experienced by wandering the narrow cobbled streets. Finish your days with siesta followed by late night tapas at the foot of the Andalucía Mountains.
Koh Samui, Thailand
With a host of hotels strictly adults only, Koh Samui is sure to delight honeymooners. Thai people are particularly partial to accommodating newlyweds and will go above and beyond to ensure you remain in marital bliss for the duration of your stay.
Kauai, Hawaii
Kauai is a little bit adventure, a little bit romantic. For the fun-loving couple activities such as horse riding, biking or hiking are sure to please, whilst Hanalei Bay and breathtaking sunsets balance out the romance portion of this island paradise.
