Island Honeymoons
Discover Paradise on an Island Honeymoon
An island honeymoon captures the essence of romance – warm breezes, turquoise water, and the gentle rhythm of life by the sea. These are places where days flow easily, where time slows down, and where you can reconnect away from the world. Whether that’s a barefoot luxury retreat in the Maldives, a characterful hideaway in Mauritius, or a tropical escape in Indonesia, we’ll find an island that matches your pace and personality.
Each island has its own kind of magic. The Seychelles offers postcard-perfect beaches and intimate, nature-rich resorts. Zanzibar blends spice, culture, and swaying palms with easy connections to an African safari. In the Caribbean, islands like St Lucia and Antigua combine laid-back charm with world-class hospitality – ideal for couples who love gentle adventure as much as relaxation.
You might spend your days snorkelling from your villa, sailing to secret coves, or dining by lantern light with your feet in the sand. Many of our island partners offer private villas, world-class spas, and sustainability-led experiences that give a real sense of place – from coral conservation in the Maldives to Creole cooking classes in the Seychelles. Wherever you go, island life has a way of helping you slow down, breathe deeply, and truly enjoy being together.

Our honeymoon specialist, Ruth, says:
“Island honeymoons are about the luxury of simplicity. You wake to the sound of the sea, wander down to breakfast with no plans, and realise that doing very little can be the most romantic thing of all.”
