Yes, it is true—nothing says intimate romance like a honeymoon surrounded by azure blue waters, palm-fringed white sands, and no one around. Be it an overwater bungalow in the Maldives or a luxurious private villa in Phuket, a tropical island honeymoon affords the perfect intimate getaway you deserve.
The archipelagic country of 1,200 islands, Maldives is the epitome of tropical island honeymoons. The South Asian island nation checks every box of an ultimate romantic beachside holiday.
Lying amid the Andaman Sea, Phuket has been steadily winning the hearts of newlyweds around the world. The mouthwatering cuisine and rich culture only add to its tropical appeal.
Boasting the perfect blend of towering volcanoes and picture-postcard beaches, one can't simply forget Bali when thinking about a tropical honeymoon. It is, without a doubt, an exotic island paradise that guarantees your dream honeymoon.
Surrounded by the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, Mauritius is a lesser-known island nation in East Africa, making it a perfect getaway to enjoy your honeymoon in serenity. You absolutely have no trouble in finding a luxury hotel for honeymoons at these islands, as they boast a wide selection of idyllic resorts and villas owned by popular hotel chains such as Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas.
The last thing you want to do is lug a bulky suitcase as you hop on multiple flights and ferries to head to your remote island. Therefore make a handy backpack your travel buddy. Since you will be heading to a tropical destination, warm summer clothes should make up most of your backpack. Finally, don't forget to pack your sunglasses, sunscreen, sun hat, and enough mosquito repellent as you will probably need them a lot.
The picture-postcard beaches are what made these islands the honeymoon hotspots they are today. Therefore some blissful beach time is an absolute essential that completes your tropical honeymoon. Treat yourselves to an evening of romantic relaxation on the white sandy shores as you sip tropical cocktails and admire the gorgeous sunset or indulge in an array of exhilarating water sports.
Almost every "year-round sunshine" destination has a wet season. A little rain on these islands wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but ideally, you'd want to avoid it, especially if you are planning for a short honeymoon. While you ensure that you have enough sun to bask in on your tropical getaway, you wouldn't also want to make the trip when the place is jam-packed with tourists; it would make you throw the intimate aspect of your honeymoon right out the window.
A honeymoon on a tropical island isn't only about unwinding within the confines of your lavish hotel or indulging in opulent luxury. Get outdoors, soak up the magnificent scenery and embark on exciting adventures that make your honeymoon memorable.
