Here’s our top winter honeymoon destinations:
Hawaii
A honeymoon getaway to Hawaii is one of the dream locations to visit, with the destination a firm favourite among couples in the US… and its growing in popularity across the UK too. With newlyweds having the choice of visiting incredible islands from Maui to Oahu, the islands benefit from warm temperatures during the winter period for couples looking to visit some mesmerising waterfalls in Manoa Falls or choosing to relax on the beach to watch the sunset
London
The activities are endless for newcomers looking to sightsee in London, from Buckingham Palace, The West End and the London Eye. During the festive period, the famous Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park is a must-see destination for loved up couples to enjoy the magic of Christmas with hot chocolate and mulled wine.
Santorini
If you want to visit a warm destination and purely relax for a week or two, you can enjoy the deep blue oceans of the Greek island of Santorini. The breath-taking views of the island from its unique architecture to the sight of the Aegean sea is perfect for those wanting to sit back on the sunbed in bliss.
Gran Canaria
The Canary Islands are a prime location to enjoy some Pina Colada on the Instagrammable dark sand beaches across the island. Gran Canaria has a range of delicious Spanish cuisine to try out and is slightly cheaper to visit during the winter season compared to peak time in summer.
Florida
For couples searching for an exciting city break, they can enjoy the theme parks lavishly scattered across Orlando – which will have Disney adults in delight. Florida still benefits from warm temperatures, so those looking to tick off theme parks like Universal and Magic Kingdom can enjoy comfortable weather while getting some great pictures.
Maldives
Taking a trip to Maldives is ideal for couples willing to splurge on a luxury trip away while benefiting from the warm winter climate. Scuba diving, snorkelling and pure relaxation is in store when you visit the Maldives and is perfect for those looking to unwind in the sun.
Paris
The city of love is a prime place to encapsulate the memories of a honeymoon together, by taking a cruise on the Seine River or visiting the iconic Eiffel Tower for a picture together. Paris has a long list of romantic hotels for couples looking to celebrate their honeymoon in this European hotspot.
Venice
For a city break in the other ‘city of love’, taking a flight to Venice to embrace Italian culture is the perfect way to enjoy the romantic ambience while visiting some fascinating landmarks. Have a look at booking a gondola to properly explore this grand old city. You could even do a half and half trip by spending a week in Rome to visit the Trevi Fountain and ancient Colosseum to make the most out of your city break.
