Think intimate. Think luxurious. But above all think harmony – with all the elements of nature that make this place so special.” Take a look through these photos and I’m sure you’ll agree that Song Saa would make for an incredibly intimate and memorable honeymoon experience!

Soneva Kiri

Hotel Feature |

Thailand is always one of my favorite places to visit and I cannot recommend it enough to honeymooners who want a trip full of adventure and  relaxation in an incredibly chic location!  Soneva Kiri is the ultimate getaway spot when in Thailand.  The resort it full of amazing features and breathtaking views in a location that feels “remote” but still is accessible.

Each room is a personal villa that are both large and luxurious.  They feel like little retreats built right into the landscape and all have stunning views of sunsets and the secluded bay.  

They have unique excursions that include the Mai Si honey farm, rain forest treks, and breathtaking waterfalls to see.  If you love to snorkel or dive, Thailand has some amazing coral rich reefs around Koh Rand and Koh Chang Marine Park for you to explore!

One of their most popular and famous amenities is the dining pods.  Personal bamboo baskets are risen 12 meters up to the treetops with waiters arriving by trapeze and serving gourmet dishes…can you believe that?!  Definitely something I always encourage my clients to experience!

A couple of my other favorites would definitely be the Jungle Escape at the Spa (of course), wine tasting, the sunrise breakfast cruise, the den (a bamboo playhouse for kids), and of course…the Willy Wonka fantasy!  A chilled chocolate room packed with chocolate truffles, lollipops, and cacao cocktails!?  You definitely don’t need to convince me of that!

If you’re interested in taking a trip to Thailand, let me know!  I’d love to help you experience all that this beautiful country has to offer.  Plus, Ever After Honeymoons clients receive complimentary champagne and Thai tapas as well as hand-crafted Thai arrival and departure gifts!

Bon Voyage!

Six Senses Zighy Bay

Hotel Feature |

I know, Oman certainly isn’t at the top of anyone’s dream honeymoon list…but it should be!  The Six Senses Zighy Bay will totally change your mind with it’s cool combo of culture and beaches!  The resort is just a 2 hour drive from Dubai too so if you can’t decide between city and beach for your honeymoon, do both!
Their villas are gorgeous!!  Such cool design and architecture!
One of the coolest parts of the resort is your arrival.  You have three options: either ride in a 4×4 down the mountain, take a 15 minute scenic speedboat ride, (my personal favorite) paraglide in!  How amazing is that?!
Zighy Bay has a ton of amazing dining options as well but I can’t get over the Shua Shack option!  It’s an authentic Arabic dining experience served family style in this amazing ocean front setting.
And no honeymoon would be complete without a list of incredible activities!  They offer everything from water skiing and wake boarding to rock climbing and a sunset cruise.  You can choose to stay close to the resort or they also offer adventure options that are outside of the property as well!
Of course I have to highlight the spa as well, what girl wouldn’t!  It’s a complete oasis with it’s calm and relaxing atmosphere and both local and Asian inspired treatments.  Have a horrible sunburn from laying out on the gorgeous beaches all day long?  Enjoy their Natural Sunburn Soother treatment!  I know I could definitely go for a Balinese Massage right now!
Book your honeymoon to Six Senses Zighy Bay through Ever After Honeymoons and you’ll get a complimentary 60-minute spa treatment for two!  Let me know here!

Bon Voyage!

Eden Rock

Hotel Feature |

The last stop on my Caribbean island hopping adventure was St Barths!  This was my 3rd time going here, and certainly will not be my last!  There’s so much I love about this island.  It is French owned and most people that live here are from France, so it has a really cool European culture.  There are amazing beaches, incredible restaurants, a cute town with great shopping, beach bars, and beautiful boutique hotels.

I stayed at Hotel Eden Rock which I loved!  Is is located right on St Jean beach and is really cool boutique hotel with incredible rooms.

There is a lot you can walk to nearby, or you can take a quick drive to the town of Gustavia and other beaches on the island.  The beach here is really nice, and they also have kayaks, paddle boards, and snorkeling equipment.

We stayed in a Rock Classic Suite, which had a patio and steps right into the water!  The ocean is such a beautiful blue color with the softest white sand.  The beach here is really calm, so I loved swimming every day.

We ate at the most amazing restaurants!  For fancy dinners I love Isola, Bonito, Le Ti (Tuesday nights are especially fun!), Bagatelle, and On the Rocks at Eden Rock.  Then a few great places for lunch are Do Brazil, L’Isoletta, the beach restaurants at Eden Rock and Taiwana, and Nikki Beach.

The island has such a unique culture and atmosphere and is just so incredibly relaxing and beautiful.  I can’t recommend a visit to St Barths enough!

Want to visit Hotel Eden Rock in St Barths?  Book with Ever After Honeymoons and you will receive a room upgrade based on availability at arrival and some really nice welcome amenities.

Bon Voyage!
