BARBADOS
Barbados is the destination for an extra special
wedding or honeymoon if candlelit dinners,
catamaran cruises and walking along the stunning
beaches of the Caribbean coastline are your
thing. Along with relaxing in luxurious and
beautiful surroundings, Barbados has a wide
variety of activities and things to do from
golf, horse riding, helicopter rides, diving
and discovering the local history.
The East coast of Barbados and Bridgetown
(the capital) have a lively nightlife whilst
the west coast has plenty of gourmet restaurants
and private sandy coves. The long, white,
sandy beaches, tropical landscape and welcoming
and relaxing atmosphere make Barbados one
of the world's most romantic locations. If
you've got money to spend, Barbados is a haven
for every honeymooning couple.
ST
LUCIA
The outstanding natural beauty of the Caribbean's
lushest island forms a perfect backdrop for
the dream wedding or honeymoon. Picture endless
sandy palm fringed beaches, orchards of bananas,
coconut and mango trees, quaint local fishing
villages, fern-filled tropical rainforests
and natural volcanic hot springs - this island
seems to have been created for romantics.
Aside the natural unspoilt beauty of the island
there is much to do here ranging from taking
boat trips and horseback riding along the
coast, to scuba diving and beach activities.
Most hotels and resorts on the island offer
a range of exclusive honeymoon packages and
can cater to every requirement. The beaches
are relaxed, accommodation is impressive and
the nightlife is very Caribbean. With all
this and more, St. Lucia is an infinitely
romantic wedding getaway.
SRI
LANKA
Sri Lanka is becoming one
of the most popular destinations for a wedding
or honeymoon abroad for many reasons. Idyllic,
spectacular landscape, enchanting culture,
and friendly and hospitable locals, Sri Lanka
makes for the perfect wedding or honeymoon
abroad. Sri Lanka is located on the southern
tip of India and boasts miles of uncluttered
white sandy beaches, fertile paddy fields,
rubber and tea plantations and spectacular
waterfalls. It's a great destination in it's
own right, but its close proximity to the
Maldives also makes it a great twin-centre
honeymoon destination.
Aside the stunning natural beauty of the
island there is a wealth of sacred and historical
places of interest to explore. Along the western
coastline lies a string of magnificent, exclusive
beach resorts and quaint fishing villages.
Most hotels offer culinary extravaganzas
with plenty of local dishes and there are
always incredibly hedonistic spa packages
for couples to indulge in. If you fancy an
action packed few days there are no fewer
than seven world heritage sights to explore
in Sri Lanka, yet if you dream of simply relaxing,
you could not wish for a more beautiful, peaceful
destination.
LAS
VEGAS
Las Vegas is also a fantastic destination
for honeymoons as there is much more to a
honeymoon in Las Vegas than gambling. The
city is as much about the romance of watching
the choreographed fountains at the Bellagio,
sipping coffee in a Parisian Café,
playing a round of golf and riding a rollercoaster
through Manhattan as it is about gambling.
Primarily though, Las Vegas is about having
fun! If you sign up for Vegas, you have the
option of booking in to some of the most amazing
hotels in the world and enjoy some unprecedented
luxury.
When Vegas is all lit up at night there is
nothing like the sight of the strip in all
its glory. If a typical beach honeymoon is
not your thing Las Vegas surely will be. This
city boasts a wealth of sophisticated hotels
offering private golf courses, renowned entertainers,
world-class chefs and beautifully decored
suites complete with every facility imaginable.
Added to this there are so many ways to spend
your honeymoon in Las Vegas, the entertainment
capital of the world.
If you tire of the city, you can venture
out to the many local treasures; formidable
Death Valley, the breathtaking Grand Canyon,
beautiful Yosemite National Park, or the peaceful
relaxed Lake Tahoe. So if you don't fancy
a honeymoon sat on the beach, Las Vegas is
the town!
HAWAII
Hawaii offers
the honeymooning couple a great combination
of tropical, sun-drenched beaches, and stunning
scenery, all with a familiar Western/American
undertone. This group of islands, located
off the West Coast of the USA, have been created
by millions of years of volcanic activity
in the Pacific Ocean.
Each island differs in it's charm, character
and what's on offer. The main island of Hawaii
is the largest and gives you the opportunity
to see current volcanic eruptions - if you
want to! Lanai is an oasis dedicated to rest
and relaxation while Oahu is more of a bustling,
lively island. Kauai has some stunning scenery
including picturesque waterfalls and dramatic
mountains. Whichcver island you're on, the
air is filled with the fragrance of exotic
tropical flowers, thick banyan trees gracefully
drop their branches to the ground, the water
is a pristine turquoise blue. The beaches
are immaculate, and uncrowded. It's no wonder
that many honeymooners want to spend a lifetime
here!
