Honeymoons where are you going?

Well we would love to go on a caribbean cruise, but as we ar getting married in September it's not the season for it. We did think about places like the Maldives but don't really want to be stuck on a beach with not much else to do for 2 weeks. So we are now either thinking Mexico (which OH isn't too keen on) or having a mini break after the wedding and then going on the cruise after xmas. Or...... I'm trying to convince him to go to New York but he's having none of it.

What type of holiday do you want? I could think of nothing worse than just lying on a beach for 2 weeks, I need somewhere with a bit of activity going on :-)

We're going to Huvafen fushi in the Maldives... it 's luxury with a capital "L"!! It was my sisters fault, she works in travel and suggested it and once I saw it there wasn't anywhere else to go! Needless to say we're having to go next April as we need the time to save up to pay for it!

We are going to the Dominican Republic, we looked at the maldives too and as much as we love sunshine and beaches thought we may need a little more and the Dom Rep seems to have the best of everything! I cant wait!!!!

Well i suggested the maldives, as thought it would be grea to have a bit of a relaxing time after the wedding, and OH has suggested Las Vegas, or Florida, as he just hates lazing around.

We are going to Paris, I love city holidays, and this time i get to splurge in a nice hotel

We are driving the Pacific Coast Highway from Seattle to LA and then off to collapse on a beach in Jamaica for a week ?

We like places were we can go out and see the local area as well as sunbathing etc.

What has been your fave holiday ever, can you start with that and glam it up?

We're going to Ischia, an island just off the coast of Sorrento!

Should be absolute luxury! ?

Honeymoon! Wooooo! 51 days! ?

We go on the 1st of November to Costa Rica to Casa Chameleon (check Trip Advisor) for a week, then 3 days in Las Vegas at the Bellagio...time simply cannot go quickly enough!

Well i have no idea where we are going on HM its my OH responsibility and its going to be a suprise......? However not so sure knowing him whether thats a good idea or not ..............

Moonpig - i know what you mean sitting for 2 weeks on beach is very boring .....however OH being acdrenaline junkie has suggestet Skiing in Canada and White Water Rafting ....?.....oh and their was me thinking a week on abeach and a nice spa and then going diving for a week!!! Millymolly why do they do that? Im cunning as were going Vegas for OH 30TH bday suprise so maybe he might then want a chilled holiday ....hmmmm?

Ohhhh maybe i need to leave travel brocures at the right page strategically positioned round the house!!!!

HKJ - yours sounds like our ideal honeymoon my OH races so we are always at racetracks and Europe visiting places

Kx

I love that idea, I might suggest that to OH tonight, as he isn't having much to do with the planning of the wedding the least he could do is organise the honeymoon and I quite like the idea of going to the airport without a clue where I'm going to end up :-) mind you, will probly end up with a weekend in Bognor knowing him

Hiya, we are going to Sensatori Tenerife whoop whoop!!

It doesnt open until next May 2010, so are taking a bit of a gamble, but we went to Sensatori Crete this year which was new and we couldnt fault a thing!!

Just gotta pay for it now.......................................................................... hmmmmm!!

Hi

Were going to the Isle of Wright for a week but on our years annervisary so July 2011 (god that seems SOOO far away) were going to go traveling for a month or so around Oz or Canada havnt decided which.

Hope that helps!!! Ive got a year and 10 months to get over my horrid fear of flying (I was sooo nervous when I went to New York I spilt the guy sitting next to me drink all over him before we even took off so he was less than impressed!!) then we had a 10 hour delay actually sat on the flight as it was an electrical thuderstorm!! i think almost two years on my nerves have only just recovered!!

OMG!! I hate thunderstorms - especially being on a plane no wonder you are scared of flying Claire!!!

Well we've done a big round the world trip, we've done the tropical island (lived on one in the middle of nowhere with no electricity or running water for 3 months!), so we're plumping for snow and mountains and going to Western Canada just after the winter olympics. It was that or Tanzania, but the saftey situation bothered me so Canada it is! We're also potentially moving to New Zealand next year for a year, but that would have been our other honeymoon choice.

I wanted to do snowboarding in Canada for ours, but although h2b loved the idea he thinks we should go somewhere sunny.

Our ideal honeymoon would be a 5 days in Los Angeles or San Francisco and 10 days in Hawaii but that all depends on the budget.

Lol I know I wasnt a fan of flying before that flight but I honestly thought I was gonna die!! next time I fly which will prob be 2011 - i think i will be getting some sedativies before hand!!! lol

We have just been organising ours today!!!

Origionally we thought the Maldives but OH does get a bit bored so we looked at the Seychelles as there are more places to visit etc BUT then we decided we'd get better value for money in the Caribbean...

We had ruled it out as we're going in July and its rainy season but after some research it seems it is still fantastic for 99% of the time and we've decided on St Lucia as its furthest east and therefore least likely to see a hurricane!!!

We are doing 2 weeks at 2 different AMAZING hotels...the second week one is up a cliff and has the 4th wall missing so its straight out over the sea and you get your own private infinity pool in your room and out over the edge!!!! The whole Island looks amazing and i CANNOT wait!!!!!!!

P.S. fancyfree are you going to Whistler??? It is one of the most amazing places in the world, we had the most fantastic time out there!!!!

St Lucia and Hawaii ?

Cook Islands then San Fran on the way home!

We are doing three weeks in Florida, We love it there plus my son will be with us and it ticks all the boxes. We have hired a villa, my parents are coming out or the second two weeks so me and h2b can spend a week on the coast or by the keys.

If it had just been the two of us I would have gone back to Canada, it's the most amazingingly beautiful country I have ever been to. The rocky mountains take your breath away ?

we decided the opposite. we didnt want to risk the weather so ruled out most long haul places we have decided to go to a 4 star all inclusive hotel in turkey. they have a beach and 2 pools for me, and lots of watersports and other activities like archery for OH as he hates lazing about! best of both worlds I hope and lots and lots of food which we both like!

We went to thailand for 2 weeks - 3 nights in bangkok, 10 in koh samui. we loved loved loved it.

we went all out on the bangkok hotel whilst we were there, but there are MUCH cheaper options, and it was dirt cheap when we were out there. only thing that was vaguely expensive was the flights to get there.

Wow everyone's plans sound amazing. We're possibly going to NZ for two weeks and then an either one of the Cook Islands or Sri Lanka/ Maldives - not 100%! x

We have been scratching our heads for a while over this one and have finally come to a decision we are both 100% happy with and unbelievably excited about - 2 weeks in Kenya with a safari trip for 2-3 days while we're there! ?

Originally we also wanted the Caribbean but as we'd be going at the end of July it's the hurricane season. Then we thought about the Maldives, which I was very keen on because I think those water huts are just pure paradise - but then I can lie on the beach/by the pool all day and do nothing but OH gets a bit restless ? so we wanted to look for somewhere with a little bit more to do. Kenya was actually OH's idea and after doing a bit of research we both knew that was the place! We're hopefully booking it in the next month or so and I am soooo excited!!

Sorry Millymolly that post turned out to be very 'me me me' ? I think Vegas sounds amazing, you have loads to do there but can also do the sunbathing thing too.

Myself and OH have decided on Canada. I love to ski and he loves to board.

We are getting married in November and thought we could have a mini moon straight after the wedding (little cottage in scotland) and then head off on HM just before Christmas. We want to spend our first Xmas and New Year on our own and thought what better way could there be than to be skiing/boarding on Christmas day!

I cant wait!

We have decided that we will go full wack on this holiday!?

Funny enough i was asked the exact same question a couple of weeks ago, the conversation is as follows:-

'so where are you going for honeymoon ali'.....'Great Yarmouth'.....'No seriously ali where are you going'.....'Great Yarmouth'......'Come on stop mucking about seriously where are you going'.....'sigh Great Yarmouth'

However, its better than it sounds its a beautiful log cabin on the edges of a golf course, overlooking a lake, it has a balcony with its own jacuzzi (sic?), bbq etc...perfect and just what we wanted, peace, serenity however i doubt we will get the weather too but in all honesty we just want to be together ?

Cotteesgirl that sounds lovely!! OH and I would also love something like that! And sometimes, if the weather is not so nice its great to snuggle up in a nice warm cabin together, especially if you have an open fire..with some chestnuts to roast! mmm...perfect. ...God I sound old!!!!!!

I think we are either going to go for Las Vegas, Greece or Maldives. All completely different honeymoons. Just has to decide now.

All your honeymoons sounds wonderful to me!

We are going to Hong Kong for 4 nights then Mauritius for 11 nights - can't wait!!! I'm sick of all this saving and not going anywhere! OH is delighted to be going to 2 places and it only cost the same as 14 nights in Mauritius so may as well do both ?

We have 2 weeks in Kenya with a 3 day safari within the first 2 days of getting there! Cant wait now!

I won't find out where we are going until the last possible minute- until it can be a secret no more! I am normally very planful so this is really weird!

Wow, some amazing honeymoons!!

We are having two weeks in Jamaica, we picked a resort that includes loads of activities but if we want to just have a lazy few days there are a few pools and, of course, the beach.
