5 Luxury Resorts For A Luxury Honeymoon Destination.

By Randolph Quan

Your honeymoon should be a one-in-a-lifetime vacation for you and your new spouse. After the stress and commotion of your nuptials, allow yourself to be pampered to the extreme on a luxury honeymoon. If you can swing it financially, consider taking a luxury honeymoon at one of these upscale resorts:

Visit Hawaii in style by staying at Halekulani Hotel, constantly rated number one for best hotel service, best spa, and generally, best in the world. The hotel on Waikiki Beach has been going strong for 100 years, and is considered the place to be when money is no object. www.halekulani.com.

Take a luxury cruise to an unexpected port of call: Antarctica. Okay, it might not be exactly what you picture when you think of a honeymoon, but there is a great degree of romance in huddling together in the serene chill, exploring places that most of the world has never seen, and doing it all on a luxury cruise liner such as the Prince Albert II owned by Silversea. According to cruisecritic.com, the Prince Albert II has 66 oceanview cabins, with the majority of them featuring a private verandah and flat-screen TV. The itineraries flip between touring the Arctic and the Antarctic, but will be sailing through the Norwegian Fjords this summer before returning to Antarctica through the end of the year.

"You wake up to a blissful quiet, broken only by a heron's call and the gentle lap of waves. You snuggle closer. A cloud of soft linen envelops you in a comfortable cocoon." So begins the description of Little Palm Island Resort and Spa near Key West, Florida. For serious luxury, this resort is on its own private island and is only accessible by boat or seaplane. No children under 16 are allowed, making it a perfect hideaway for adults. With additional romance packages available, make this the honeymoon neither of you will ever forget. www.littlepalmisland.com.

If you don't want to go too far from home (perhaps your honeymoon can only be a weekend getaway?), but you're not concerned about price, look into Paris' Fouquet's Barriere, a contemporary banquet hotel on the corner of the Champs-Elyses. With one butler for every eight guests, you'll be sipping champagne feeling like a queen. http://www.fouquets-barriere.com/
