The Caribbean island also known as “Little England” Barbados combines West indies style with their motherland, Reggae rhythm with afternoon tea and Caribbean hospitality mixed with cricket matches! All in all a home away from home but with sun! Maybe the best possible honeymoon travel holiday that you could find?!
Although only being fourteen miles wide and twentyone miles long the island has plenty to see and do and is well known for its 100’s of beaches. The majority of holiday makers visit the western side of the island with Bridgetown, Speightstown and Holetown. If you are both into your golf then Barbados is the place for you, the championship course at Royal Westmoreland and the Barbados Golf Course are both top quality. If that isn’t the thing for you then head towards the coast and visit the Farley Hill national park, Harrison’s cave, Barbados Wildlife Reserve or perhaps Andromeda Botanical Garden.

Going on a cruise is one of the most popular honeymoon holidays for newlyweds. Here at Honeymoon Travel Holidays we will try to find you all of the best available deals, whether you are on a tight budget or you can afford a luxury holiday away with a loved one.
If you have enough money (or some rich inlaws!) then going on a romantic cruise on a luxury liner is one of the best honeymoon travel holidays you can do. The quality of the food & drink, entertainment and service will be evident and there will be a large variety of crew members available at your every call. Then there’s the suites, grand design, huge bedroom and bathroom with a balcony to look out at the ocean.
Most if not all luxury liners have a large variety of restaurants, bars and theatres available so you can enjoy a 5 star meal with some top class entertainment. If you like to gamble then a visit to the casino may start your married life together on the right foot with a large win-fall! If that’s not for you then perhaps a visit to a nightclub so you can dance the night away in each others arms.
During the day if your feeling energetic perhaps go for a swim or visit a fitness centre or gym. If relaxing is more your game then relax in a hot tub or have a nice massage in their spa area.
With all of this available and more where you go is nearly secondary! Whilst away you will stop off at various destinations to give you the opportunity to get your land legs back, have a look around and soak in the culture. A great deal of cruises are catered for honeymoon travel holidays. Some people choose to go to colder climates like Scandinavia although obviously the warmer climates like the Caribbean are usually more popular. Either way it is up to you decide but one things for sure wherever you go, you’re sure to have a good time.
The costs for a cruise like this may seem expensive at the time but bear in mind that this generally would include meals, facilities, entertainment, transportation etc. So will probably be worth it in the long run.
