Mustique Island
This private island in the Caribbean archipelago nation of St. Vincent and The Grenadines is famous for its sandy white beaches. With a wealth of lush vegetation covering much of the island, Mustique is an idyllic place to have a honeymoon. Rent one of the many luxurious villas and enjoy one of the many sporting activities available, such as watersports, tennis, and equestrian. For a romantic evening, dine at the exquisite Firefly hotel restaurant and bar or take in some thirst quenching cocktails at Basil’s shoreside bar.
This picturesque island was a one-time summer retreat for Princess Margaret who owned Les Jolies Eaux, her own villa for many years. The Queen, Prince Philip, Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge have all visited the island giving it a thoroughly royal seal of approval.
Côte d’Azur
Nothing says European luxury and high-end life than the French Riviera. With famously glamorous beach resorts such as Saint-Tropez, Cannes, and the Principality of Monaco, the area was a key health retreat in the 18th century, turning into the playground for the rich and famous in the 20th century. One of the most famous and decadent places to stay is Nice’s Hotel Negresco. The Negresco combines the historic with the contemporary whilst never compromising on luxury. Many of the premium rooms in the hotel has breath-taking views of the azure blue sea waters. The suites themselves are luxurious, spacious and elegant, making them the perfect setting for any honeymoon stay.
Why not hire a sports car and take a short 36min drive through the Provençal countryside and along the coast to Monaco, playground of the rich and famous? The onetime home of Princess Grace Kelly, this microstate oozes the fast and furious lifestyle of casinos, the Grand Prix and ostentatious spending. Perhaps you’d like to follow Princess Grace and Prince Rainier with a leisurely romantic cruise on the Mediterranean. Whilst in Monaco, eat at Le Louis XV – Alain Ducasse à l’Hôtel de Paris for a special dining experience with the one you love.
The Seychelles
After their globally broadcast wedding on 29th April at Westminster Abbey, Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge set off for their honeymoon on a secluded island in the Seychelles. Not only do the islands boast crystal-clear waters and white beaches, but they’re also home to some of the world’s most luxurious and secluded hotels. One of the most popular and exclusive locations in the Seychelles for A-listers is Alphonse Island.
Boasting incredible natural beauty and prolific marine life, this island is ideal if you and your life partner are snorkelling enthusiasts. Of course, this is just one of many things to do in this paradise island-esque location. Here guests can go game fishing, scuba diving, or perhaps a romantic sunset cruise complete with champagne and canapes onboard.
And the accommodation doesn’t disappoint either. Take up temporary residence in a beach suite nestled amongst tropical plants, just steps away from the beach. These one-bedroom suites are extremely spacious and discreet, making them the perfect honeymoon getaway for two people in love.
