Honeymoon Location Location??

[eyesh]

Where to go for our honeymoon? Next year in August? Any experiences or ideas?

[boxtops]

Hard to say without knowing what sort of holiday you want. August is school holidays so many places will be high season and expensive.

[eyesh]

Sun, Beach, Luxury. Its once in a life time so keeping options open.

Look at the Sandals resorts then - the weather will be hot at their locations, but it's adults-only.

[eyesh]

Sandals is too common. But thank you...

How do you mean... common?

Last year we went to Marrakesh - no beach, but a lot of pampering. http://www.mrandmrssm...ons/morocco/marrakech

[eyesh]

Will look in to it :)

[eyesh]

Common as in its veryyyy popular for honeymoons.

fijii.expensive but paradise.the chalets over the water where you can take a few steps down to the water.beautifully blue.and the table inside can slide back so you can see the fish swimming below and feed them.as i said though,expensive.AND a long journey.

[boxtops]

Ah yes, see what you mean. Look at the Moroccan hotels, the one we stayed at was very private if you wanted to be private.

[eyesh]

Oh Fiji, I looked into that. Its perfect, But soooo long of a journey so it was a big put off :(

[eyesh]

@boxtops - I will do thanks alot. But is it not a bit strict on being love duvy over there (same as in dubaii) it will be our honeymoon and we dont want to be too much like strangers.

Eyesh, no, not at all, Morocco is liberal. They like you to wear appropriate clothing if you are visiting certain locations, but otherwise there is still signs of affection in the streets, etc. Morocco may be in North Africa and a Muslim country, but it has more affiliations to France than to the Middle East.

[eyesh]

Thanks alot. You have been great help :)

Not sure about "appropriate clothing in certain areas". We were in Marrakesh last year, and I usually made sure to keep my legs and shoulders covered, the one time I walked through the medina to Jema el Fna in a vest top (it was hot, I walked out of the riad without thinking!) I felt so exposed!
I couldn't believe that some young female tourists were walking around in very short shorts, revealing tops and of course being ogled every step of the way! Very disrespectful in a largely conservative country!

My son and his new wife had a great time in Cuba.

eyesh,i understand your misgivings about fiji.probably a whole days travel.and i once looked into it. not a lot of change from 10 grand. i,unfortunately couldn't go that far. how about blackpool?

[bednobs]

maldives? it really is once in a life time cause in a few years they won't be there

[bednobs]

i really didn't think sandals was common for honeymoons - surely it's too expensive for most people? Isn't it about £1000 a night?
