Three Types of Honeymooners
Which one are you? The beachgoer, with towel and sunscreen in hand? The adventurer whose must-pack item is a pair of hiking boots? Or the EuroTripper, already researching how to haul three cases of French Bordeaux back home?
The Beachgoers
You’ve just spent over a year driving yourself crazy over planning a wedding for 200 guests, and all you and your spouse want to do right now is plant yourself on a warm beach with an endless supply of tropical, highly alcoholic drinks. You deserve it.
You should go to:
- Azul Sensatori in the Yucatan Peninsula
- Secrets Sanctuary Cap Cana in the Dominican Republic
- Paia Inn in Maui
The Adventurers
The proposal was mid-bungee jump, or took place on the top of a mountain; either way you’re itching for some hardcore adventure. Indiana Jones has nothing on you two, and GlobeTrekker calls you for hotel recommendations.
You should go to:
- Rios Tropicales in Costa Rica
- Shahpura House in Jaipur, India
- Zion Mountain Resort, Utah
The EuroTrippers
When someone says “honeymoon,” you don’t think palm trees, you think Belgian beer with German pretzels, Brie and Bordeaux, Scotch and haggis. Your “London A-Z” has a dozen dog-eared pages, and eating gelato in front of the Trevi fountain is on your bucket list.
You should go to:
- Hotel Plein Soleil, Martinique (it’s like France, but closer with better weather)
- Hotel Davanzati in Florence, Italy
- The Fandango Barge, on the Burgundy Canal in France
