Head to the Perfect Island Paradise with Honeymoon Help from 2 Travel Anywhere

Tuesday, January 13, 2015

A while back, we introduced you to Carlie at 2 Travel Anywhere. Along with providing custom destination wedding packages at Sandals/Beaches Resorts, 2 Travel Anywhere can also help you plan the perfect honeymoon. With so many tropical islands to choose from, it’s a great idea to have some professional advice so that your expectations for paradise are met. Below, Carlie shares some of her expertise about how to choose the best island for you.

How do you help a couple choose the right honeymoon for them?

Carlie of 2Travel Anywhere: There are many different expectations that couples have for their honeymoon. Some are looking to relax, some want to chase great surf, or scuba dive. Some couples are looking for the best value, or an adults only setting. After a discussion of their likes and interests, I customize a honeymoon that is best for them. Not everybody wants to have the same type of trip, so I really try to go over their expectations in order to plan their honeymoon based upon exactly what they want.

We've found that most honeymooners fall into a few categories: relaxing on the beach, sight-seeing in new locations, or a mix of the two.

Sandals St. Lucian

 

Which islands would you recommend for each of these types of honeymoons?

Carlie of 2Travel Anywhere:

a) Relaxing -  Sandals Emerald Bay - this resort is located on a small exotic island of Bahamas called Exuma
b) Sight-seeing -  Sandals St Lucia and Jamaica are great choices with many activities available to guests
c) Mixture of these two -  Sandals Royal Plantation in Jamaica - this intimate resort is the ultimate luxury setting offering superb service. Every room has a beautiful ocean front view and there are plenty of activities to choose from.

Which islands do you represent?

Carlie of 2Travel Anywhere: We work with Sandals / Beaches resorts in Jamaica, Turks & Caicos, Antigua, Barbados, St Lucia, Grenada, and Bahamas. 2 Travel Anywhere has personally travelled to all of the locations that we represent. As such, we can ensure our guests will receive a high quality vacation with exceptional services.

What are some examples of the main elements that is each island known for?

Carlie of 2Travel Anywhere:

St. Lucia boasts several active & dormant volcano sighting locations, golf history, rain forest exploration and hiking. If you are an extreme hiker, then hiking the Piton, the highest peak of the island, is great for a full day adventure or a shorter option as well. For history buffs, Pigeon Park provides an 18th century English fort and several other Colonial buildings.

Jamaica has relaxing options and adventurous activities as well. This island is known for rolling mountains lined by endless white sand beaches and cascading waterfalls. In Negril, there is a stunning 7 mile beach, great for those who love to walk in the sand. In Southern Jamaica, there is a resort that is located on 2 miles of private white sand beach. This island has 7 Sandals resort properties offering something for everybody.

Grenada is one of the newest exciting places to honeymoon, and has an extraordinary resort unlike anything you have ever experienced. Pools in the sky and living rooms in swimming pools. Private plunge pools, cascading waterfalls and meandering river pools. This location is truly an exotic island paradise and perfect for couples who want to experience something extraordinary.

Antigua is famous for 365 spectacular beaches - one for each day of the year! This island is great for those seeking white powdery sand beaches caressed by clear aquamarine waters.

Bahamas boasts crystalline sea and an exotic private escape. Great Exuma is a private remote island offering romantic tropical elegance, ensuring endless hours of pure bliss. For your groom, there is an 18-hole golf course designed by golf pro Greg Norman. This is a more private, quiet resort, great for a couple looking to relax.

What are some other aspects that a client should consider when choosing one island over another?

Carlie of 2Travel Anywhere: The couples’ likes and interests help me determine the best option for their stay. Sometimes it may depend on how many days they're taking for their honeymoon - some resorts take 10 minutes to get from the airport and other resorts may be a 90 minute drive from the airport. For couples who are going for a shorter stay, then choosing an option that is a shorter drive from the airport would be best. We are able to tailor any honeymoon to ensure there is something for everyone. Our goal is to make sure we plan the best honeymoon for the 2 of you.
