When you are looking for a place to honeymoon, there’s no doubt that you are looking for a combination of two different things. You want a great destination where you will have an amazing time and you want it at an affordable price. Although this may seem impossible, there are many wonderful honeymoon destinations that come at very fair prices. Here are our top ten.

Kauai, Hawaii

All of the islands of Hawaii are excellent choices for a honeymoon. Kauai in particular is a very good choice because it’s one of the more popular islands. This allows the businesses there to offer cheaper prices to its visitors. Accommodations and food is affordable and lying around on the miles and miles of white sandy beaches is free!

There are a number of activities to do in and around the 150 lakes and 7 state parks including fishing, hiking, boating, and camping. There are many all-inclusive packages that are worth looking into as more and more honeymooners are seeking out these mountains for a romantic getaway!

New York, New York

Many people think that New York is a very expensive place to take a vacation. It can be, but only if you don’t plan it right. Booking airfare and accommodations well in advance will definitely reduce costs, especially if you don’t go in a prime tourist season. There are also many things free to visitors such as sitting in a café and watching New Yorkers bustle past and going to Rockefeller Center in the winter and watching the ice skaters or skating yourself! If you take your honeymoon in the summer, pack up a lunch and go for a picnic in Central Park! Extremely romantic and extremely cheap!

Cancun, Mexico

Mexico is known for its inexpensive food and accommodations and if you choose to stay at a resort, there are many discounts and all-inclusive packages that can be purchased. Spend your day on the beach and have a nice, romantic dinner in the evening. While in Cancun, bargain with merchants for a good price on almost anything.

British Columbia

This breathtaking province in Canada has so many wonderful things to do that you won’t know where to start. You can take a railroad ride through the Canadian Rockies or walk along the coast of the Pacific Ocean. Shop in many of the fantastic boutiques and spend some time in the outdoors hiking, fishing, or boating. There are many quaint bed and breakfasts in British Columbia and as long as you don’t stay in one of the larger cities, such as Vancouver or Victoria, the prices are guaranteed to be very reasonable!

Wine Country, California

There are few things more romantic than strolling through a vineyard hand in hand with your new husband. Wine Country in California is the perfect place to visit on your honeymoon if you are looking for something that is truly romantic! These vineyards are also very reasonably priced as many wineries have wine tastings that charge no admission and the food is exquisite as local chefs prepare the finest dishes. The tours of the vineyards are often free and with the number of vineyards that Wine Country boasts, finding something to do will never be a problem.

Brazil

On your honeymoon, take a visit to the rain forests and have a truly unforgettable experience! Airfare to Brazil is extremely reasonable. Local shops are not only rich in Brazilian culture but are also very reasonably priced. Those who don’t even like thunderstorms will be aching to catch one here as they are quite unlike anything you have probably ever experienced before. The lightning makes for a beautiful show and the thunder is the perfect backdrop to this.

Europe

Europe may not traditionally be thought of as one of the cheapest honeymooning hot spots but look for seat sales for your airfare. Because Europe is such a popular destination, airlines often offer these to entice visitors. Spend some time backpacking through the beautiful countryside and spend your days on the numerous beaches that can be found just about anywhere. Feel like a princess as you tour some of the world’s most amazing castles that hold tours at reasonable prices.

Mahe Island

This little known island in the Seychelles is one of the most beautiful in the South Pacific. Spend some true quality time with your love as you lay on the isolated beaches, seemingly having the entire world to yourselves. This island is not heavily commercialized although tours are available. You can take a tour on a glass-bottomed boat or get a little more hands-on and put on some snorkeling gear before diving down to play with the sea life yourself!

Disney World

With all of the packages the resort has to offer, it can be quite inexpensive. If you are looking for a peaceful and serene honeymoon, this is not the vacation for you but for the couple that is truly looking to have a lot of fun and play around while on their honeymoon, this is the best place to be! Before you head back home and begin the responsibilities of family life, let loose and find the child within as you ride the many roller coasters the resort has to offer.
