Honeymoon

FH are starting to look into HM ideas. Right now our budget is at $5,000. Not sure what this will get us. Can you laides share what you got/where you are going???

that's about what we're paying for a week at Sandals Grande Antigua

We booked back-to-back cruises on Royal Caribbean. FH doesn’t fly so my HM options were limited. We’re leaving from NY (well, Cape Liberty NJ actually) and doing a 5 day cruise to Bermuda and then (on the same ship), doing a 10 day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean (St. Thomas, St. Maarten, Haiti and Puerto Rico). It came to about $3100. That doesn’t include alcohol or any excursions that we do in any of those locations.

I thought that was a great deal. Even if we spend $1000 on alcohol and excursions, we’re still under $5K and it’s a 15 day HM.

HTH!

Look into Secrets Maroma. It's in Riviera Maya, Mexico. It has the most beuatiful beach/pool/suites- I am obsessed with it.

I've been to Secrets Capri and my parents have been to Secrets Silversands and we had nothing but amazing things to say about all of the Secrets. If you are looking for a relaxing luxury beach HM -you can't go wrong with Secrets Maroma!

We have a similar budget. We have looked into a few different ideas, but it seems the cruise option make the most financial sense.
We're planning on a Southern Caribbean cruise with Royal Caribbean- it goes to Barbados, St. Lucia, St. Marteen, St. Croix and Antigua. It leaves out of San Juan, so we're hoping to spend a few days in Florida 1st, then fly from Florida to San Juan on sail-away day

The 7 Night Cruise from a balcony room for both of us is just over $2,500

We haven't booked our HM yet, but we've been to mexico a bunch of times, and stayed at amazing places.

ITA! We looked into 2 really beautiful places in Mexico -- Secrets Maroma Beach, and Excellence Playa Mujeres. They were really nice - the 2nd one has a 2 story suite with your own huge jacuzzi on the balcony.

We are renting a huge house in VT and going Snowboarding snowmobiling and lots of otherstuff YAY!!!!!!!!

---

you guys finally decided on the snow-stuff HM? i always wondered which way you guys decided!

We are going on a European Cruise for 20 days.
Its leaves from Rome and goes to Livorno/Florence, Italy; Monte Carlo, France; Barcelona, Spain; Madrid, Spain; Palma de Mallorca, Spain; Tunis, Tunisia; Palermo, Italy; Naples, Italy; Rome, Italy; Dubrovnik, Croatia; Korfu, Greece; Olympia, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Epheseus, Turkey; Athens, Greece; Messina, Italy; Rome, Italy

Afterwards, we are going to spend 1 full day in Rome and then travel to Venice where we will spend a couple of days and (if i get my way and am lucky, we will go to Florence too!)

without airfare, the cruise itself was $11K
we are expecting to pay another $2,500-$3,000 in airfare and at least another $1500 in cruise excursions. We don't know how much the hotels in Rome and Venice will be since those prices are not out yet.
Total this HM will cost us close to $18K

Fh and I are pretty sure we are going to St. Lucia..that is around what our budget is and the travel agent said it would be no problem.

---

Us too.. we already booked and I think we are a little under $6K with flights... We even got butler service

Thanks for your help ladies!! I'm thinking we should get intouch with a agent see what we can get/need/want. I'm thinking we may have to extend our budget!
