Today, I am super excited to share the honeymoon adventures of Ashley from Be Inspired PR & her new hubby Tyman! They are just about one of the cutest couples around (to see what I mean, click here, here, & here!!) and they were such a joy to work with. Ashley & Tyman decided on Greece because not only had neither been before, they also felt that the destination offered a good balance of relaxing and adventurous activities.
To kick off the honeymoon, Ashley & Tyman began in Mykonos at the Kivotos hotel. With only 38 rooms, it was a perfect escape after all of the wedding festivities. The Kivotos Hotel is also absolutely amazing, with some of the best views of the island and a fabulous private beach.
Next, the two ventured to the romantic island of Santorini and stayed at the Aressana. Of the two major cities on the island, Oia & Fira, Oia was the couples favorite because they felt it was quintessential Greece, and I have to agree! The bright white buildings against the rugged landscape and gorgeous blue waters…. I can’t get enough!

After their island adventures, the two headed back to the mainland and explored some of the beautiful Greek historical sites including Delphi & Meteora. Lastly, the two stayed in Athens at the Ava Hotel & Suites. Finishing up their honeymoon escape with some of the best site seeing Greece has to offer was perfect for these two and they left filled with enough Greek yogurt & Greek salad to last them a lifetime :).

I am pumped to share an awesome hotel in London for today’s Destination Spotlight. I was lucky enough to stay here earlier this year and absolutely loved this hotel! The Arch Hotel in London is a unique combination of English heritage and contemporary boutique style, spanning seven Georgian town homes and two mews homes. Each of the 82 rooms are unique and individually designed with work from rising British artists and all of the techy accessories you could ask for. What’s more, the location of the Arch Hotel is quite perfect, situated behind Hyde Park and just a short walk to the shopping on Oxford Street and fun pubs on Carnaby Street.
The Arch was the perfect base for exploring the incredible city of London! And GET THIS the bathrooms at the
Arch Hotel are fabulous to say the least. If you are anything like me, you agree that after a day of exploring the city, there’s nothing better than sinking into a warm bath with a glass of bubbly and a little trashy British TV. That’s right, one of the walls facing the tub has a built in TV, complete with a waterproof remote! I was in heaven!

For today’s Real Honeymoon, I am excited to share the Italian escape of Amanda and Colin. These two newlyweds ventured to some of my favorite places in Italy: Sorrento, Capri, and Rome. Originally, the two wanted to do a beach vacation, knowing they were going to be exhausted from all of the wedding festivities, but they decided to nix that idea and go on an Italian adventure. Sorrento met the couple with relaxation and delicious food, Capri offered a few more opportunities for site-seeing without being too exhausting, and finally, after some relaxation and rejuvenation, the two arrived in Rome for exciting sites and delicious foodie experiences! Amanda and Colin started their trip in Sorrento at the crazy-chic La Minervetta and in their own words, this was “such a perfect place to feel spoiled and start our honeymoon.” I love that! It is just the way a couple should feel on their honeymoon.
These two are huge foodies and started following Italian food bloggers on Twitter so they were able to find some amazing restaurants. In Rome, Amanda and Colin were head over heels for the Carbonara at Roscioli, and they also said that the 6-course tasting menu at All’Oro was probably the best meal they ever had!
Gorgeous, adventurous, and delicious, the three perfect words to describe Amanda and Colin’s honeymoon getaway. I’m loving all of their pictures! Aren’t they the cutest??

Hi everyone! I hope you have all had a fabulous short week thus far. Today, I am excited to feature a real honeymoon getaway to Barcelona, Spain and Marrakech, Morocco. James & Christie knew from the start that they wanted to go to Barcelona, but they also wanted to add one more destination to the trip, a place that was more of a gamble, more exotic. Morocco fit the bill perfectly and was only a short flight from Barcelona! The two spent a week in Morocco at Riad Yasmine, a beautiful oasis off the bustling streets of Marrakech with only 8 other rooms. Riad Yasmine also has some of the best Moroccan food in town! In Barcelona, the two stayed at the Hotel Icaria, near the Olympic Village. It was a perfect location and had the perfect pool for their lazy days.

Hello everyone! There are so many exciting things going on over here at Ever After Honeymoons, I can hardly stand it! I will spill all the details soon enough, I promise, but until then I have another beautiful Destination Spotlight to share with you all, Hotel Lungarno in Florence, Italy. Situated in a prime location, South of the River Amo, the Hotel Lungarno is just a short walk from the excitement and sights in the heart of Florence and Ponte Vecchio.

The hotel is literally right on the river and most of the rooms have little balconies! |
|
The hotel is also known for its extensive art collection scattered throughout the property |
I just love Florence. Be sure to check out Il Santino, a cute little wine and cheese bar that’s right down the street from the Hotel.
