Honeymoon Help
 

Hi Everyone,<BR>We are planning our honeymoon for July 2003 and would love input. We're looking for a Caribbean island that's not too "busy" or crowded, but at the same time has great nightlife, restaurants, shopping etc. We say we want to relax after the craziness of the wedding, but we're typical New Yorkers that can't sit still! I'm looking into Sandal's because there's no kids, it seems romantic, and an all inclusive sounds like a good deal, but we're open to any options! <BR>Thanks for your help!<BR>-Jenni

Sandals Resort are wonderful resort even though there are alot of Sandals bashers<BR>on this sight. I think most of them have not even been to a Sandals Resort and are just trying to stir up the board. We go to a Sandals every year on our Anniversary. if you have any ?'s please feel free to email me I will be glad to answer them for you. .

I think Sandals St.Lucia would be a good choice, less busy, ggod night life and super excursions. if you like email me and i will send you excursions sheet on all the Sandals .

Kim, what's with you and these excursion sheets? What does that have to do with the hotel itself? You're so full of it!!!!

Good honeymoon spot for what you're looking for, I'd have to say start with the USVI. If I were planning my honeymoon then/there I'd say go to the Ritz Carlton if you can; this is their low season and rates should be better. Altho we love Frenchman's Reef, if it were for the honeymoon I'd stay at the Ritz Carlton (hardly any kids at this property). You have the option of their beach, other beaches around St. Thomas, or being close by to the ferry in Red Hook going for 1 or 2 day trips to St. John/the British VI. The ride to Charlotte Amalie (main town with the nightlife) is about 30 minutes from the Ritz. Great prices on duty free jewelry, go directly to Raadets Gaade (a street) where the small shops offer better deals and don't mind bargaining with great jewelry direct from Italy (better quality and unique pieces than even NYC / Fortunoff's. The Ritz offers Romance / Honeymoon Packages (as well as other properties) but of course, this is a 5 star property. July should be OK, because the full rainy season is August to November. I'm 25 miles west of you guys, and I know what you mean about 'can't sit still.' <BR><BR>You might consider Aruba if you're into gambling; my friend/her hubby who are originally from the Bronx loved the Marriott down there, which has an onsite casino. There's duty free shopping down there, also. This is a longer plane ride, tho.<BR><BR>All the best with your wedding; we're still on our honeymoon, 24 years next week!

yeah kim, whats with ur excursion sheets? do u work for sandals?
