going on my honeymoon any suggestions?

Answer 1

Well, I'm assuming since you put this in the Caribbean section of Travel, that's what area you are interested in seeing. One suggestion, although it isn't my favorite way to go personally, is to take a cruise so you can sample a little bit of many places (but generally you don't get the same sense/appreciation as staying in one place; also are more likely to go to the most "touristy" spots). Otherwise, we'd need to know alot more about your interests/budget/etc. I often suggest St. Kitts as an island that has a bit of everything and isn't to well known with Americans (I'm American) and didn't seem to touristy. Other suggestions are Dominica if you are seeking eco-tourism and a more "extreme" vacation hikning, etc. St. Lucia is known as tne Hawaii of the Caribbean. Jamaica and Dominican Republic are often the most affordable Caribbean islands; places in both islands can be a bit "risky" going off the beaten track depending on where exactly you are staying. Then again, I'm wondering if you were considering Mexico or not? One previous response mentioned Cozumel- which happens to be my favorite vacation spot. Then you have the slightly more touristy Playa Del Carmen, Mexico right across from Cozumel or even the large party city of Cancun. Other suggestions for a honeymoorn include Puerta Vallarta or even Costa Rica.

Feel free to shoot me a message if you think I may be of any further help.

Answer 2

If money is not an issue, I would suggest the Tahitian Islands. Bora Bora & Moorea are exceptionally beautiful & romantic. You can get an over the water bungalow, and you will never want to leave your room.

Also I've heard the Maldives are wonderful too.

I am a huge fan of the South Pacific, so besides Tahiti the Cook Islands are nice & so are the Fijian Islands. We stayed at a small Island in Fiji called Castaway Island. It was gorgeous, and would be a perfect honeymoon spot. Make sure you ask for room # 37. Best spot!

Have fun choosing. Anywhere tropical will be nice.
If you are looking at the Caribbean I personally like Jamaica, although there's lots of pretty spots.

I had the same question posted not too long ago. We decided to go on a Caribbean Cruise with Royal Caribbean. I've done a lot of research and RC seems to be the best bet. We haven't booked yet because we cannot decide on Eastern or Western caribbean. All the reviews sound like we are leaning more towards Western cruise. It will only cost about $2000 for the both of us for 7 nights. Depending on when you are going, you can probably get a better deal. Check on CruiseCritic.com for reviews from customers and Vacationstogo.com for booking. I've been researching non-stop for a couple weeks now and seem to be the best choice for us. Congrats and good luck making a decision.

I have been all over the US, all over the Caribbean, and many places in Europe and my suggestion for the best time of your life and the best scenery is Hawaii or a cruise.

If you select Hawaii, I suggest that you plan to visit at least two of the Hawaiian islands, Oahu (Honolulu, Waikiki, and Pearl Harbor) and Maui.

In Oahu, go to Pearl Harbor to see history at the US Arizona Memorial. You can drive or take the bus there; no need to book a tour. But you need to go early because the site is popular and the wait for your free tour can be about an hour. In Waikiki you can browse around the International Market across from Waikiki Beach, go on a sunset dinner cruise on Waikiki bay, try an outrigger canoe ride on Waikiki, go for a sail on a catamaran on Waikiki Bay, or visit Diamond Head park. If you like to snorkel go to Hanauma Bay which has perfect flap water for snorkeling on a reef. Go to the other side of the island to see the great deserted beaches (get a rental car for a day or two). Take highway 99 north toward Waimea and stop at the Dole pineapple plantation for a tour.

The Polynesian Cultural Center is a great place to learn about authentic Hawaiian life. You can buy tickets to tour the place, and another type ticket that allows you to stay for the evening luau.

If you go to Maui, you gotta do the downhill bike ride. Do the sunrise one if you don't mind getting up at 3:00 AM to get started up the mountain and its cold up there that early. If you are a romantic do it, but otherwise no. There are different bike companies and some don't take you all the way to the top, and some don't guide you back down. You can come down by yourself, there's only one road with just a little traffic, but if you are squeamish about riding in the street, a company that accompanies you down will help watch the traffic for you. I have been twice and prefer Maui Downhill to the others. These companies have web sites They will pick you up at your hotel, take you to their shop to pick out a wet-suit (for the cold and mist/rain shower maybe) and gloves and helmet; then take you up the mountain; then follow your group down so they can block traffic for your ride; then afterwards take you back to your hotel. Expect this activity to take 75-80% or more of the day.

Then drive the Road to Hana (you need a rental car). It’s a 45 mile winding road that takes 4 hours to drive. Its like driving through the jungle; has a bunch of one lane bridges. Then drive past Hana to the Seven-Pools attraction and go for a swim. There is also a winery on Maui and some of the best beaches anywhere.

You can actually easily plan your trip to include two islands. We did the last time we went. We flew into Oahu, stayed 4 days, then took one of the daily commuter flights to Maui and stayed 4 days. We flew back to the mainland from Maui. We used American Airlines which has one of the Hawaiian airlines as a partner. The two island airfare will add less than $100 per person to your airline costs.

There is a tour company called Roberts, which I have used several times, that does island tours and arranges day and/or overnight trips to other islands. A web link is below with others for Hawaii.

If you don't want to do Hawaii then do a cruise. We did a cruise to Alaska for our honeymoon on a Princess cruise line ship. The benefit of a cruise is you unpack on the ship once and all of your food and entertainment is right on ship, plus you wake every day or so in a new port with the opportunity for many activities each day. Even if you do not get off ship, there are enough facilities, like gym, spa, multiple pools and hot tubs, casino, etc. for you to have a good time on ship. You can get a great cruise (outside the hurricane period: November to May) for between $1200 and $1500 per person for a balcony cabin. To get the best price, book early and be very flexible on your cruise date (i.e., don't box yourself in to a day or two after your wedding ... go when the price is the best). Some cruise links for your below. I recommend Princess, Celebrity and Royal Caribbean, but Norwegian and Holalnd American are also very classy.
