Honeymoon help!
 
Thank you in advance for sharing your knowledge of travel with 2 very inexperienced travelers. We are getting married this August and need to plan our honeymoon. Here are the details.

When: August 3rd-11th (9 days)
Where: We live in Florida and want a 4 hr max flight
Interests: Looking for excursions and relaxation with an emphasis on romance
Budget: $5000 including airfare

Some places we've been told to check out include Costa Rica, Belize and Turks & Caicos. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Yucatan peninsula is another option--plenty of cultural and natural excursions, plus romance, relaxation, beaches etc.

The Springs Resort and Spa in the Arenal area of Costa Rica is fantastic. Beautiful hotel with hot springs, a river for tubing and kayaking, and you can go ziplining, hike at a waterfall, raft, take a tour to go see wildlife, etc. The resort is gorgeous and romantic. Nayara is another good option. Victoria House in Belize is another fantastic resort.

Miami to Belize City is 1 hr 45 mins flight and we have lots to offer on land and sea, especially for HM couples seeking romance, adventure, comfort and pampering

Hi

My husband and I are from the UK and decided on Playacar resort Mexico after lots of recommendations. We have done a review on the 2 hotels we stayed at including videos. We stayed at Riu hotels. http://goodfriendstoknow.com/. The Riu palace has just been upgraded as well and here is a video of what the new rooms look like. http://goo.gl/GNvIM

Although we had an amazing time and the staff were fantastic we were disappointed with the food and we are new to all inclusive so just wasn't up our street. But there is lots to do and the beaches are beautiful.
