You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” – Dr. Seuss
A honeymoon is perhaps the most important vacation a couple ever takes. It’s the first time you travel as a married couple and a celebration of a new bond that you now share. Because of the significance of this celebration, it is important that you pick the destination to reflect this. Here are some tips to provide you with basic information about three of the most romantic places.
The best honeymoon spots are not necessarily the most romantic places; rather it is the place which offers you the opportunity to participate in activities that’ll bring you and your better half closer together!
Paris, France
The city of love, Paris, is said to be a magical place; the air of this city is full of passion and romance. This is definitely one of the best places for your honeymoon!
Take to the streets of Paris at night, like the great authors once did, find inspiration. If you happen to be the kind of couple that appreciates good art, then you should go see the Louvre. There’s also the exquisite Arc de Triomphe that you must visit. All in all, Paris is a great honeymoon destination for all those visit, whether it’s those that dine at the top of the Eiffel tower or those that dine in the lavish street eateries as local singers serenade them.
Where to stay: Four seasons is ideal for the hotel for a honeymoon couple, the most interesting thing about them is the privately escorted tour of The Louvre, allowing you to avoid the hustle and bustle of the large crowd that usually visits the magnificent Museum.
Byron bay, Australia
This little surfing town has somehow retained its authentic feel; this is impressive because many large resorts have tried to set up commercial projects due to the great amounts of tourists that flood in. Byron bay is the ideal location for honeymooners who hold interest in marine life and beach activities. The beaches of Byron are renowned throughout the globe for their surfing potential. But that’s not all, in Byron bay its common practice to surf along with a pod of dolphins as the evening wears on. The picturesque views, offered by the trek up to the lighthouse are breath taking.
Honeymooners also have the opportunity to take to the ocean floor; Julian’s point offers some of the best scuba diving around the globe, there are few things that more romantic than exploring the ocean fauna and flora with your better half.
Where to stay: The villas of Byron bay offer a range of services that make them an ideal place to stay. The design of the villas themselves is really unique and comfortable not to mention their versatile prices are quite welcome.
Venice, Italy
Even though Venice is said to be decaying and sinking slowly into the Adriatic Sea, it still makes for an extremely romantic city and nearly adds to that air of romance. This ancient port city of canals, bridges, and centuries old buildings will capture your heart like no other European city.
The gondola rides are quite spectacular; made more so if you happen to stumble across a gondolier that’ll sing for you and your new bride/groom as you sail down the canals lined with spectacular views.
Where to stay: The Cipriani Hotel is truly extravagant, the grand hotel manages to give off a relaxed and peaceful feeling despite its grandeur and celebrity clientele.
There are many other destinations that would make for great honeymoon destinations but I only focused on those that were not only beautiful but also offered activities that were unique. I’m sure that these destinations will allow you to make some truly great memories. Memories which will not only serve as the foundation of your newly formed relationship but will also refuel the fire of your romance when it starts to dim over the long years of your marriage.
