Ibiza or Monaco?

OK so fh i have FINALLY decided on the locations of our HM, we said barcelona and monaco. He even took it upon himself to call the TA today and gave him the 2 locations, plus in barcelona he has his heart set on this one hotel and told the TA this hotel. TA is calling us on thursday with the quotes.

NOW don't ask me why i am even researching more, its just what i do and have to drive myself even more crazy. WEll i decided to look at Ibiza, since its another place i have wanted to go to. WEll i check out the hotels in ibiza and looked at 5 star hotels and theyre amazing and seriously could not even believe the prices. For a 2 floor suite during the time we're going you seriously wouldn't even believe the price. And ibiza is supposed to be amazing and will be less than monaco. So now i wonder if i should even bring this up to FH or leave it as is. Maybe since we're going to spain we should go to monaco and do a different culture. Or should i bring this up to FH, whom didnt really want to go to ibiza when i had brought it up a long time ago but for stupid reasons

why after MONTHS of trying to decide, and FINALLY deciding do i have to make it more complicated for myself

Which would you rather do?

ESPO - MONACO ALL THE WAY- and tell FH to put $20 on Black for me!!

well the good thing is barcelona also has casino's.

I told fh to maybe do 5 days in monaco and spend more time in barcelona since its alot bigger and more to do. I have found good rates, i know you wanted to go so maybe for your 1 year anniversary if you ever want info.

maybe another time lol...he said if i love ibiza maybe to plan a trip with the girls there or something.

i hear him. don't know what his reasons are but i don't want to go there either - my friends invite me and i just don't want to. I'd want to go to mallorca or malaga i think if i do an island.

i've heard monaco is AMAZING but i don't know anything about it. what's the draw besides casinos?

yeah if he was still in his hardcore partying days he would've loved IBIZA but now once i said it he said NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahaha

for any girls who havent booked HM and would consider ibiza and want info, i can give it to you. This 5 star hotel with a huge spa and big property with huge pools is amazing. For a junior suite its under $300 a night

I vote for Monaco, b/c I have no clue what Ibiza is.

its an island off of spain...known to be THE party place in the world so yeah maybe not the best choice for a HM...we want a good nightlife but this type of nightlife is maybe more the single and going crazy type haha

Yeah its a little hard with monaco bc some of the hotels can be pricey. If you dont go for a very long time it should be fine. for 4 days i found some sites you can get it for $1800 and found even hermitage which i know you like for about $2300. Its alot of research but can be worth it.

Def. a party place I went with some girlfriends a couple of years ago very pretty but I wouldn't suggest it for a honeymoon. Enjoy Spain though!

I've heard Ibiza is amazing!! However on the flip side..it may be alittle too much party for a honeymoon..so monaco may be better

sorry didn't see this last night. OH well fh is even more excited about OMM bc last night he checked the billionaire boys club stores site to see their locations and there is one in barcelona, he did directions from our hotel to this store and its 2 blocks away so hes even more excited

it definitely will, everybody i know who went to spain said they had such an amazing time. Even my moh who went there a few years ago kept telling me about it.
