Honeymoon end of March

Hi

We are getting married end of March and need some inspiration for somewhere nice to have our Honeymoon.

We can only go for 4 nights/5 days, maybe an extra day at a push and need somewhere max 6 hrs flying time with good weather.

Not really keen on the canaries, has anyone got any ideas.

Thanks in advance.
Caroline

    What about Dubai, 6 hr flight, we went last March for our 25th Anniversary, out of this world. Flights quite cheap at the moment, beach hotels can be expensive, we shopped round got a good deal stayed in the city which I preferred anyway.
  • thanks for that, do you mind we asking who you flew with as all flights I have seen seem to take 7-8 hours, also where in city did you stay?

    thanks
  • You could go to Sharm El Sheikh.

    Flights from all over http://www.travelrepublic.co.uk/ and you can get great room prices from https://www.alpharooms.com

    Weather is great. Snorkelling is great

    Any questions please feel free to pm me.

    Gatwick-Dubai 6 and a half hrs direct. Do a search of this site theres loads about it. Although we stayed in the city we were only a cab ride to the beach. Most hotels have a shuttle. we stayed on Sheikh Zayed Road which is pretty much as central Dubai as you can get, although it is very spread out and you will need cabs almost everywhere. Temps March around 27 degrees not very humid at that time .... perfect really.

    i love Cyprus and it is very romantic if you want it to be with things like candle dinners outside by the harbour in paphos,the water is also drinkable straight from tap and they drive on the same side of the road as us,it is so clean and has a very little if not any crime rate ie people leave car open! very very nice honest! good luck with wedding and where ever you go have a wonderful time!
  • thanks everyone for all your suggestions, I have some ideas now will see what I can find.
