Honeymoon suggestions-please help!!!

Freckles1977, 29 September, 2011 at 22:07 Posted on Planning 0 17

Hoping someone can help me with some ideas of places to go-have been search the internet and have been in to travel agents but just finding it so confusing!!! Getting married on May 19th next year and wanting to go on honeymoon pretty soon after the wedding so will be the last 2 weeks of May going in to the beginning of June. Would like to go somewhere a bit more exotic and special than the normal holidays we go on as a couple (eg canaries, Cyprus etc) but don't want to spend a fortune! Plus, want the weather to be lovely! Any suggestions would be gratefully received!

    It depends what you want but in May the carribbean should be a great option. Mexico seems a very popular honeymoon destination too. How about Africa: Zanzibar, Cape Verde, Gambia and Kenya?

    we're going to Hawaii as OH wouldn't go to the caribbean in hurricane season.

    I love America and flights seem really cheap at the moment - There are some fabulous beaches in Florida and the food is to die for!

    We're going to Cuba and staying at the Paradisus Rio de Oro. It was fairly cheap. AbbyGlos- what was the resort like? Did you experience the royal service? x

    Gah! Wish we were paying that price! OH is a teacher so we are going just before the summer holidays start (he managed to get a few days off), when the price is at it's highest!

    Thanks for the suggestions-OH actually suggested Cuba the other day. This has been the only place he hasn't turned his nose up at yet so will look in to it!

    We went to Cancun in Mexico a few years ago for a holiday and we loved it - we stayed at the Riu Cancun and all of the rooms overlook the beach it was beautiful, there is another hotel next door to it, also a RIU but it's a palace hotel which as far as i know is part of the platinum selection. The sensatori hotel over there look amazing, we nearly booked the El Dorado suites - we both loved the look of them but we wanted to go somewhere we have never been before otherwise we would have definitelybooked there.

    Were off to Aruba for our honeymoon next year. We looked at the Seychelles and Bahamas but we couldn't get a any direct flight we would have had to fly from London to get to alot of places which we didn't want to do.

    Your best bet would be to look and see where the weather is good at the time of year you are going on your honeymoon. The next thing to look at is do you want quiet beach, adventure, culture etc and see what is around. You might find yourselves booking somewhere completely random that isn't a 'usual' honeymoon resort.
