Anyone fancy a honeymoon flash???

emmyroo22, 20 May, 2009 at 18:06 Posted on Planning 0 25

Im in need of some inspiration!! i quite fancy going somewhere relaxing and 'paradise' like, ie.e maldives, but H2B seems to think we'll get 'bored' but has nothing else to suggest!!

we did toy with the idea of doing florida (i.e being big kids again and doing all the theme parks) but now im thinking we'll be shattered after all that and need another holiday!!

We aren't really 'holiday' type people, we've only ever been on one holiday, and that was just a cheapy to greece!!

where is everyone else going?

    If it's any help we went to the travel agents & got loads of brochures. Ruled out places due to cost or the weather at the time of year. Got it narrowed down the far east. We went to Thomas Cook & spoke to the girl in there, told her the sort of thing we were looking for & she helped us pick the hotels

    Hi, we did a fly drive, 4 nights in San Francisco, 1 night in Monteray, 5 nights in Santa Barbara and 4 nights in Las Vegas. It was fantastic! I would recommend Trailfinders.com who helped us a lot. We just asked their advise and they came up with ideas and hotels. I would also recommend TripAdvisor which has millions of hotel reviews so we used that to review the hotels and then change them with trailfinders if we weren't keen. Trailfinders did all the bookings and flights and also sorted out the car hire.

    Good luck with the planning!

    We did the pile of brochures too. We also changed our minds loads after being messed about by the travel agents.

    No we are doing:

    5 nights here http://www.hilton.co.uk/HiWayWeb/appmanager/portals/hotel;jsessionid=KG51KJ1FdkGFsbTsC1lKpMJpJpPW111T81DQhw9yCVGTK0CZ7nyx!135761757!566700098?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=hotel_image_gallery&ctyhocn=DXBJBHI

    then 9 nights here https://www.kuredu.com/

    My OH didn't want to go to the Maldives for the whole time for the boredom factor so that's why we are going to Dubai too.

    Emmyroo how about combining Florida with somewhere like beachlike in America. That way you can have the Disney fun and then go and relax.

    When I was younger we were meant to be going to Florida and then Naples for 2 weeks, it looked amazing.

    Am most jealous of everyones honeymoons, we were planning to book to go to Mexico and then .. well you know what happened lol! So we are currently 'moonless and I am getting anxious to book something

    Morning, we thought about the maldives too, but thought we might get a bit bored, plus we just couldn't afford it!

    so we are going here in bangkok for 3 nights, here in koh samui for 3 nights, and here again in koh samui for 7 nights. then back to bangkok for a night to stay somewhere convenient for our flight the next morning. hopefully we've got the right mix of things to do and relaxation.

    We're spending a week at Ceasars Palace in Las Vegas where we're getting married. Then we're off to Barbados for 2 weeks where we're staying in an amazing luxury apartment on the west coast. There's a pool and a private beach for laying about on and we'll have a hire car for the duration so we can explore the island. Barbados is full of great restaurants and Andy plans on us visiting most of them - I'm going to put on soo much weight, I just know it. We'll also spend at least one day out on a boat.

    We were looking at mexico but decided not to due to the huricane season etc. Glad we didn't now. We are of 2 Crete for 2 weeks in this hotel,

    https://www.tui.co.uk/

    My friend has booked it for us and has advised us that we should be upgraded because she has stated everywhere possible honeymoon. Just in case we have paid for 1 up grade to the swim up room, if we are up graded from this we will have a small swimming pool of our own. But if not we won't be disapointed

    We thought about the Maldives too, but were a little worried about there being too little to do, so have gone for:

    https://www.casachameleonhotels.com/ for 7 nights in Costa Rica followed by

    /en.html in Vegas for 3 nights to mix it up a bit!

    I have to admit, Im not a fan of travel agents - may be useful to discuss some ideas of where they recommend, but I reckon the internet is the way to go for research, especially trip advisor...
