After all, the resort is where you\u2019ll create lasting memories, unwind after your wedding and enjoy your first adventures as a married couple. With so many factors to consider, making the right choice is challenging. To help you find the perfect spot, we talked to Tahryn Nicastro of Shore to Sea Vacations in Howell Township, NJ, and compiled a list of the top nine things to look for when selecting a honeymoon resort. Read on to ensure your getaway is everything you imagine and more.Sandals South Coast, Jamaica1. Adult-Friendly Environment\u00a0“Consider couples or adult-only resorts for a more upscale and romantic atmosphere,” Nicastro says. “A honeymoon without kids running around or splashing you in the pool allows for a more serene environment perfect of relaxation and intimacy.” Adult-friendly resorts are designed for romance and excel at offering optional add-ons like private candlelit dinners, couples spa treatments and a private beach just for their guests. This tranquil setting will allow you to focus on each other and enjoy just being together. Jade Mountain, St. Lucia2. Breathtaking ViewsWhether it\u2019s an ocean vista, a majestic mountain range or lush tropical garden, breathtaking views are essential for a romantic honeymoon. Stunning scenery adds to the overall ambiance and romance of your stay. “When you\u2019re looking at resorts, pay attention to the views from their rooms, dining areas and common spaces,” Nicastro says. “Imagine waking up to a sunrise over the ocean or enjoying the colors of a spectacular sunset from your privacy of your balcony. These moments of natural beauty enhance romance and make honeymoon moments even more special.”Sandals Royal Barbados3. Max Privacy is Key“Privacy is one of the most important aspects for your honeymoon,” Nicastro adds. “It sounds a bit clich\u00e9, but honeymoon suites are still a thing. And at the right resort, they are spectacular!” Imagine luxe amenities like private pools, a jacuzzi or hot tub, butler service and secluded terraces perfect for private moments. The best honeymoon resorts understand the need for seclusion and provide options to unwind and connect without distractions. Look for resorts that offer honeymoon suites or private villas where you can enjoy your time together without interruption. Bonus points for private entrances, locations in more private areas of the resort and other features that enhance privacy.Jerk Shack at Sandals Royal Caribbean, Jamaica4. Food OptionsWhen looking at different options, consider honeymoon resorts with multiple on-site dining options or easy access to nearby restaurants. “Having a range of culinary experiences ranging from fine-dining restaurants to casual beachside grills lets you change things up and avoid dining fatigue, which is when you feel like you’re eating the same thing every day,” Nicastro explains. Some resorts even offer private dining experiences where you can enjoy a meal on the beach, in your room or in a secluded spot. It is also a perfect chance to try different cuisines so you can share a new experience together and make more memories.\u00a0Sandals Montego Bay5. Room Service\u00a0Convenience and luxury go hand in hand on a honeymoon. Picking a resort that offers 24\/7 room service is ideal so you can enjoy gourmet cuisine in the comfort of your suite. “Some top resorts feature a privacy box\u2014sometimes called a magic box or secret box\u2014where meals and other requests are delivered to a compartment from the outside without disturbing you,” Nicastro explains. You can access the box from inside ensuring total privacy. This service adds even more romantic allure to your stay, allowing you to indulge in delicious meals without ever having to leave your room. Look for resorts that offer a diverse room-service menu like breakfast in bed and late-night snacks.6. Upgraded Levels of ServiceAn upgraded level of service can make your honeymoon truly special. Consider resorts that offer personal butlers, concierge service and other luxury touches. These services enhance your stay with personalized attention that lead to unforgettable memories. “Resorts with butler service provide highly-trained staff that excel at anticipating your needs without ever being intrusive,” Nicastro says. “They can assist with everything from unpacking your luggage to drawing you a romantic scented bath ensuring your honeymoon is extra-special and stress-free.” Also, resorts with concierge services can help you plan your itinerary and maximize your time together with insights on the destination, must-dos and best shopping.Sandals Royal Barbados7. Great On-Site\u00a0SpaIf your idea of relaxation includes a couples massage, then a luxurious spa is a must-have for your honeymoon resort. Look for resorts that offer extensive spa services, including couples\u2019 massages, facials and other treatments designed to relax and rejuvenate. A day at the spa can be a perfect way to unwind and enjoy each other\u2019s company. Some resorts offer unique spa experiences such as outdoor massages, hydrotherapy circuits and aromatherapy sessions.8. Activites & EntertainmentWhile relaxation is key, you\u2019ll also want to enjoy some activities and entertainment. Choose a resort that offers a variety of activities, from water sports and excursions to evening entertainment and cultural experiences. This will ensure that you and your new spouse are entertained and can create lasting memories together.St. Lucia9. Excursions and Tours\u00a0Exploring new places together is one of the joys of a honeymoon. Choose a resort with easy access to local attractions and excursions. Whether it is a guided tour of a historic site, a nature hike or a boat trip, having nearby activities adds an extra layer of excitement to your honeymoon. Look for resorts that offer excursion packages, allowing you to experience the local culture and natural beauty without the hassle of planning. Popular excursions include snorkeling, zip-lining, city tours and sunset cruises.Sandals Royal CuracaoHelp Finding the Perfect ResortSelecting the perfect honeymoon resort is an essential step in planning an unforgettable honeymoon.
