A Caribbean honeymoon is absolutely perfect. Just thinking about it evokes romance and luxury. From the soft sand of the beaches to the beautiful sunsets and island breeze, it is just about the perfect place for a romantic getaway. And because everyone has their own idea about the perfect setting, there is something for everyone on the islands.
For those who like a taste of the high life, there are five star hotels and resorts complete with world class facilities to meet your needs in style. Other couples might prefer a secluded shack on the beach, or even a vacation that is filled with activities, from snorkelling to water skiing, diving and even a little pop into the shops.
No matter which type of couple you are, there are choices aplenty when it comes to accommodation. You just need to find the place that best fits your needs and preferences. What sets Caribbean vacation packages apart is that you have a lot of leeway in tailoring the package to suit your idea of a perfect time. You don't just have to settle for the run of the mill vacation, you can make your ever fantasy come true at this dream destination.
For the luxury lovers, the resort life is usually your best bet. Casa de Campo is one of the best resorts. Located on the beautiful Dominican Republic this huge resort is secluded, ultra swanky and filled with activities. It is also home to the best golf course in the Caribbean so golfing couples will really enjoy it. The "Teeth of the Dog" course is among the top ranking golfing locations in the world.
If golf is not your thing, there is always tennis, horseback riding and there is even the option of testing your marksman skills as you shoot at clay pigeons. Of course the resort also provides a whole host of water activities. This is also the place to be pampered as the spa is top notch. With all the massages, aromatherapy and lots of other treatments, every bone in your body is sure to be rested and at ease.
If romantic Caribbean vacations for you are something authentic and intimate then you might want to head to the Bahamas or Jamaica Island Outpost. The Island Outpost feels more homely than the large swanky resorts; they usually have a cluster of small home and hotels that let you experience the real island life, the way the locals do it. It is the perfect option for couples who are looking to avoid the crowds at the resorts and have a totally unique experience.
In total there are 15 Island Outpost hotels and such spread out along the Bahamas and Jamaica. Each enclave offers something slightly different, with its own culture and flavour. Eco travellers and anyone who is environmentally conscious will really appreciate these places. They practise sustainable development, taking only what they need and helping to conserve as much as possible. They are also great for the local economy as almost everyone working in and running the place is a local.
Whether you want to rest and relax and just soak up the atmosphere or do as much as possible, there is something for everyone. Be sure to plan your vacation wisely, watch out for the weather and the tourist season. You certainly don't want to be stuck there during hurricane season and if you are on a budget, it is probably best to avoid peak season which runs from December to May. Your best bet for an affordable Caribbean honeymoon will probably be between May and early June.
