I am getting married 7/13/13 and am looking to go on our honeymoon shortly thereafter. We are both divers and I have currently visisted SXM, St. Lucia, St. Croix, Montserrat, Jamaica, and Roatan. I've only been with my fiance to STX, Roatan, and M'rat though. I went to the other locations with an ex of mine and don't want to repeat any of those islands on my honeymoon.
We're doing a honeymoon registry so we're not exactly sure on how much money we'll be getting out of that but our budget is probably around $6k.
What I would like:
-Looking to do about 10-14 days
-I usually never do AI's but would like to do one for this trip.
-I would like to dive for a good amount of the trip but don't want to dive everyday. I would like to throw in a few beach/excursion days
-Would like to stay away from kids
-Want beachfront accommodations
-Would love a private pool/jacuzzi but it's not necessary
I don't know how I feel about a Sandals type place. I just feel like they're herded full of people that will probably get on my nerves lol. I don't need luxury but I feel like the quieter AI's are all under that luxury category.
A couple places I have looked at: Little Cayman Beach Resort, Galley Bay Resort in Antigua, Petit St. Vincent Resort, and I've been wanting to go to Grenada for years so I've taken a glance or two at Spice Island. I honestly really wanted to go to Bora Bora or Palau but my fiance doesn't want to sit on a plane for a long time. Maybe we'll do one of those trips for our 5 year anniversary.
Any help anyone could give me I'd really appreciate it. My fiance doesn't care as long as it's warm and I'm happy so he hasn't helped me narrow it down a whole lot lol.
Thanks!
