When you finally meet your soulmate, and you pledge your love until ‘death us do part’, this is a time for both families to celebrate the union. When it comes to the honeymoon, this is a special time when both bride and groom enjoy some private time to have their own celebration and make plans for their future, and with that in mind, here are a few important aspects to consider when selecting a honeymoon destination.
- Romantic Venue – Both parties want a romantic honeymoon venue for obvious reasons, which is why the Maldives wedding venues are still the most popular after many decades. Luxurious water villas with 5-star décor and a service that is second to none are hard to beat, and the seclusion is very welcome for honeymoon couples. The nice thing about the Maldives is that you can enjoy activities and seclusion in equal amounts, plus you have the freedom and flexibility to do whatever you wish during your stay.
- 5-Star Service – If ever you want great service, it would be on your honeymoon; room service should be available 24/7, while you should have access to a full bar and cocktail service. This is a time for hard celebration, and if you can’t drink too much on your honeymoon, when can you? Ordering a sumptuous meal at 3 am should not be an issue, and when you book a water villa in the Maldives, you have your own private bartender 24/7.
- Oceanside Location – The best honeymoon destination would be on the coast, and the honeymoon couple can enjoy sunset strolls along a pristine beach. Popular honeymoon destinations include the Maldives, Phuket, Samui Island in Thailand, Hoi An in Vietnam and the Seychelles.
- Luxurious Setting – Luxury is definitely the name of the game when it comes to honeymoons, so any venue should have at least one pool, a fitness room, a sauna and a few bars and restaurants. A full room service is a must, as couples prefer to stay in their suite most of the time, which is perfectly understandable when honeymooning.

- Seclusion – A quiet villa tucked away in a coastal bay makes for the ideal honeymoon venue, which gives you the best of both worlds. You can dance the night away in a funky disco, then relax in your private space with your soulmate. It’s your choice, day or night.
- Remote Location – Not everyone likes to be around the centre of the action, and if you are a person who likes silence and solitude, choose a quiet, luxurious villa that is off the beaten track for the perfect honeymoon.
Whether you choose the Maldives, the Seychelles or the South of Thailand, booking a honeymoon during high season means you have to book well in advance.
