Are you planning the honeymoon of your dreams? The world is your oyster: Bali, Barbados, a Greek island, or maybe a honeymoon cruise vacation? Cruises are becoming more popular for anniversaries, weddings and make for a dream honeymoon cruise vacation. Here are a few reasons why a honeymoon cruise vacation always beats a traditional hotel honeymoon.
easy to book Booking a honeymoon cruise trip is a very easy process. Simply explore the many destination options for your dates and hit BOOK! It really is that easy. Optional pre- and post-cruise packages will include airfare, hotels, and transfers. No hotel reservations while you search for suitable flights, no car hire to organize, and no transfers to worry about. A honeymoon cruise vacation package takes care of everything: stateroom, transportation and meals all in one. I wish planning the wedding was so easy!
great winter destinations Options for where to honeymoon in winter may be limited, but cruise ships relocate to offer a honeymoon cruise in the sun any time of year. In winter, they are mainly concentrated in the Caribbean, Hawaii and the southern hemisphere. In summer they cross the Atlantic and sail through the Mediterranean, Scandinavia and Alaska. A honeymoon cruise vacation should be all about relaxing in the sun, so book with confidence.
Additional features Let the cruise company know that this is your honeymoon cruise vacation. Most ships offer some goodwill extras for those on a honeymoon cruise vacation. Tables for two, complimentary champagne and chocolates and even a honeymoon cocktail can be provided. Some cruise lines have honeymoon packages for a small fee that include engraved glasses, flowers, a wedding cake, and many other pleasant surprises.
Privacy You may think joining 2,000 other cruise ships won’t give you much privacy for your honeymoon cruise vacation, but it’s actually quite the opposite. Enjoy room service in your stateroom at any time of the day or night, without unpleasant surcharges. Fruit plates, cheese plates, drinks, light snacks and breakfast in bed are just a phone call away. Ignore the organized shore excursions, take a taxi into town and explore each port of call hand in hand. Alternatively, ask the taxi driver to take you to the nearest quiet beach, and arrange to be picked up later! Most cruise ships have alternative meals for a fee and these exclusive restaurants offer candlelit dinners, attentive waiter service and a romantic setting to make your honeymoon truly special.
Entertainment Life on board a cruise ship is never boring. Sit in a cozy corner and be serenaded by a professional pianist, dance face-to-face, catch an off-Broadway show, head to the casino and try your luck, or step out into the warm night air and cuddle up under the stars. Best of all, at the end of the night your cabin is just a walk away. No calling a taxi or driving a rental car in a strange place. With a honeymoon cruise vacation, everything is perfectly taken care of.
