Which Honeymoon Destination & Hotel have you chosen?

soon-to-be-Mrs-King, 20 May, 2011 at 19:22 Posted on Planning 0 22

Hi ladies

I was just wondering where everybody is planning to go for their honeymoon.

We were orignially going to get married in Mexico but due to important family members not able to make it we changed it to the UK, however because I did 8 months of planning and research for Mexico it only seems right that it is still part of our wedding.

The hotel that we will be booking (hopefully next week) is The Royal Cancun, Mexico. We chose this hotel as everything looks and sounds amazing (rooms, beach, restaurants, pool) it is rated #2 on Trip Advisor and consisitently has good reviews, especially regarding the staff, it is quiet, romantic, adults only and although we will probably be lazing around most days it is still close enough to the night life if we fancy a night out on the town.

    My Auntie and Uncle stayed in The Royal Cancun when they went to Mexcio for their 50th birthdays!!! They said it was amazing and couldnt speak more highly of it!! The only thing I remember them saying wast that it was great cause it was full of people there age group. Something worht bearing in mind that it does attract an older crowd! (I just realised I dont know ur age lol) My friend is on honeymoon at the min in Cancun she is staying in the Rivera Maya!!!

    We are going to the bright lights of Las Vegas Staying in the Planet Hollywood Hotel for 2 weeks cant flipping wait. We both arent sun and beach people so this type of holiday is more up our street!!! xxx

    We went to Mexico about 4 years ago to the Riveria Maya and I can honestly say that it was one of the best holidays we ever had. The hotel we stayed at was amazing and for us, Mexico was the right combination of relaxation plus sight seeing / culture.

    Two years ago we went to Las Vagas for a week but stayed at The Flamingo. It was brilliant and such a different holiday to any other we've had. Definitely somewhere we'd like to go back.

    We're spending three weeks altogether on our honeymoon. One week in Mauritius- Heritage Awali hotel and then two weeks in South africa. In South Africa we a spending 3 night on Safari- East Cape, Amakhala Safari Lodge. Then hiring a car to travel a long the garden route staying in three different hotels before finishing in Cape Town- More Cape Cadogan. I can't wait x x

    Hello,

    I'm going to The Royal Cancun in October!!

    I can;t wait!

    The rooms look lush and as you say, it's right near other nightlife, for a good night out.

    I've never been all inclusinve before, so think that it being easy to leave the complex and go somewhere else is a bonus. We usually go on sightseeing holidays.

    From the reviews on trip advisor, I think it must be a mixed crowd.

    The biggest pull for me, the jacuzzi in the room, sea view and vodka optics! Am very easily pleased.

    Wow Cheekypie your Las Vegas honeymoon sounds amazing.

    Spells2b The rooms do look lush and the in room jacuzzi, 24hr room service and vodka in the room were big pulling points for me to. Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.

    Suzie The Elderado Royale was in our top 3 list too, you're going to have a fabulous time.

    We're going to Marrakech, Morocco, we have no hotel booked yet but we're doing that on Monday. We'll probably stay in a 5* Riad in the Medina or a 5* Kenzi in the centre of 'Kech.

    Lots of people going to Mexico! We are staying at the Royal Playa del Carmen...the reviews were equally as good as the Royal Cancun but it was just ever so slightly cheaper. It was a tough choice as there are so many hotels in Mexico which just look amazing!

    Kuramathi in the Maldives....only one week as h2b can't get any more time off work but that'll be enough, can't wait for that week of laying on my backside! Part of me is more excited about that than the wedding (I am a holiday junkie and had to save money this year so have only been on mini break for h2b's 30th)

    This isn't set in stone yet, but i'm organising our (first) honeymoon as a surprise for my bride to be. She's always wanted to go to New York City since she was little, i've been a few times and i'd like to go again so it looks like the best option.

    The hotel i'm thinking of is the Gansevoort Park Avenue. It has a rooftop pool overlooking the Empire State Building, I don't need to say any more.
