Romantic Honeymoon Locations

Find the top honeymoon locations and plan your romantic getaway


What are the most romantic honeymoon locations and romantic getaway destinations? There certainly are many top honeymoon destinations to choose from, but a handful of places stand out as the most romantic, intimate, relaxing, and memorable vacation spots in the world.

Having planned and researched many honeymoons, destination weddings, and romantic getaways for travel clients, I have compiled a list of my favorite honeymoon locations - the best of the best, where ultimate romance meets pampered service, natural beauty, and top-notch facilities.

So here are my choices for the top ten honeymoon locations:

10. Jamaica - beautiful beaches, lush rainforest, and that famous laid back attitude.

9. Cabo San Lucas - year-round warmth, stunning coastline, and absolutely great golf.

8. San Francisco - the most romantic city in North America, and close to Napa Valley.

7. Zihuatanejo - a quaint, artsy town on Mexico's most beautiful and romantic bay.

6. Riviera Maya - turquoise waters, white sand beaches, and Mayan pyramids.

5. St. Lucia - dramatic volcanic peaks, lush jungles, and incredibly romantic beaches.

4. Antigua - amazing beaches and intimate, romantic resorts. An island paradise.

3. St. Kitts and Nevis - lush, gorgeous, exclusive, with best beaches in the Caribbean.

2. Kauai - Hawaii's most beautiful and most romantic island. Now this is paradise.

1. St. John, USVI - the most beautiful water anywhere, tranquil, and utterly romantic.

All these locations are truly beautiful and utterly romantic. There are certainly many more wonderful honeymoon locations that didn't make the list.

Some up and coming locations include Puerto Rico (it's making a comeback), Phuket, Thailand (still big with Europeans), and Costa Rica.

It is important to thoroughly research your honeymoon destination, especially if you have not yet traveled abroad, as is the case with many newlyweds.

Most of the above honeymoon destinations offer something for everyone. But by planning ahead and selecting a place that fits your unique tastes, you can help ensure that your honeymoon will be perfect, romantic, and unforgettable.
