Re: honeymoon spots
my favorite "honeymoon spot" was my wife's bellybutton.

Re: honeymoon spots
I'm getting married in June, and my fiancee and I are going to Turks and Caicos. Acutally, Caicos to be specific. The whole thing can definitely be done for under $4K easily. I hesitate to post the name of the place here because I want it to remain as relatively obscure as possible. I'll PM you tomorrow with more info.

Re: honeymoon spots
My fiancee and I just booked our honeymoon in March. We're going to stay at an all-inclusive resort in Playa del Carmen, near Cancun. We got a pretty good deal. We wanted to do the Carribean, but it was just cheaper to do Mexico.

Re: honeymoon spots
My wife and I went to Jamaica in May for our honeymoon and had a blast. We were originally going to Mexico but opted for Jamaica after hearing a bunch of the stuff that was going on at the resorts at the time.

Re: honeymoon spots
I don't know what the cost is but talk to a travel agent or maybe do the time online................but there are a Zillion small tropical islands off the beaten path. Many cater to just this sort of thing
While Little Palm may be a bit pricey (and continental) this sort of thing exists all over the Carribean.... Florida Resort - Florida Keys Beach Resort & Spa - Luxury Private Island Retreat

Seriously seriously do not go!!!! I want there for my honeymoon and it was so boring. We stayed at the Marriott and if you want to go anywhere on the island it is like a $40 cab ride. It totally sucks, nothing great about the water or the island. My wife and I were so sad that we choice that place. I kept saying I feel like I am trapped in a snow storm, no where to go, nothing was opened, just plain boring. DON"T GO THERE!!!!!!!!!! After reading about Key West, I so wish we had gone there.

Re: honeymoon spots
Went to Ireland on mine--we absolutely loved it. B&Bs, pubs, awesome hikes and scenery, great people, great music. Not as cheap as it once was, but if you're not into the tropical thing, I highly recommend it.

Re: honeymoon spots
I know a few people who've done the all-inclusive thing at one of the many resorts in the Caribbean, and others that have done cruises. Definitely pluses and minuses to both. Before we decided to go cheaper (drove the coast from Maryland to Key West, stopping in Williamsburg, Charleston and Savannah), we were looking at one of the resorts in St. Lucia.

Re: honeymoon spots
Atlantis in the Bahamas. Lots to do, had a great time. Went back the next year with our son. Went to Cancun about three years ago, good time too, but like Atlantis better.
