Island Vacation Honeymoon ? Which Island To Choose?After handling all the worries and details of planning your wedding, you'll need a place to relax and feel pampered, or even kick up your heels. Why not try one of the islands listed below - they are the most popular resorts that provide exactly what you're looking for honeymoon getaways.
Bahama islands. Blessed with near-perfect, year-round barefoot weather, some 700 Bahama islands and islets sprawl across 100,000 square miles of multi-colored, clear Atlantic waters. Tourism is the main industry. In recent years, the Bahamas has upgraded its resort hotels to become the envy of the world. As you might expect, the Bahamas is a most exotically romantic place. Many newlyweds seek it out as an ideal wedding and honeymoon location. Who wouldn't, when you can enjoy such exquisite beaches, perfect weather, and the wide range of activities and watersports that these resorts can offer?
Bermuda is really an archipelago, or a series of islands joined by causeways and bridges. Too far north to be technically part of the Caribbean, its isolation in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean between North America and Europe, coupled with a history of English settlement, make it unique. It is spotlessly clean, quaint, and extraordinarily pretty. There are no slums, no billboards, and very, very few fast food outlets. From the colonial architecture of the tidy homes that line its roads, to the fragrant tropical flowers that drape its old stone walls, Bermuda is a sight for sore eyes. Why not to perish in Bermuda for your honeymoon?
Hawaii. For a magical honeymoon experience, with volcanos, lush vegetation, and warm waters, Hawaii might just be the perfect destination. The Mauna Lani Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii is one of the more sophisticated resorts with everything you might want in one place. The very exclusive Four Season's Resort is also nearby (on the same side of Hawaii) and perfect for couples.
Barbados, famous for it's white sandy beaches, brightly painted villages, exotic flowers, and friendly atmosphere is undoubtedly still a favorite for honeymoon couples. Barbados hotels offer guests a delightful setting and an equally pleasing and relaxed atmosphere. Just think about staying in a hotel situated on a lovely sandy beach overlooking the tranquil turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. There you will find an excellent choice of bars, restaurants, and night-clubs nearby. Day by day you will enjoy a beautiful white coral sandy bay, with turquoise sea. By day, relax in the lush tropical gardens, swim in the pool or in the crystal clear sea water, take a stroll on the beach, play beach volleyball or let our friendly staff arrange a tour or activity. By night, indulge yourself with a sunset dinner, dance under the stars on a clear night and enjoy live entertainment, Caribbean style.
Jamaica's shores are as beautiful below the surface as they are above, especially along the north coast, where conditions are wonderful for scuba diving. Treasures range from shallow reefs, caverns, and trenches, to walls and drop-offs just a few hundred yards off-shore. Most resorts provide small sailboats, and yachts and cruisers can be rented as part of hotel packages or at daily or weekly rates. Jamaica has spelunkers salivating. The island is honeycombed with limestone caves and caverns, particularly in the west, but extreme caution should always be exercised, especially in unmapped areas. An interesting small fact about fauna - over 252 species of birds can be found in Jamaica.
