Bali

The Island of the Gods is the ideal honeymoon destination with its endless beaches, the warm welcome from the Balinese people, delicious local dishes and rich cultural traditions which include dancing, handicrafts and art.  This is an island which is filled with Hindu temples and friendly people, who greet you with colourful flowers in their hair and with a genuine smile. 

Bali offers exceptional value for money and has some truly unusual boutique hotels ranging from family owned resorts with only a handful of villas to colourful properties with extensive collections of Balinese artwork and antiques.  Every place has its own originality and character and often no two rooms are alike.  Balinese resorts are often comprised of individual villas, reminiscent of the compound style of Balinese family homes.  Revel in the privacy of your own walled estate, dipping in your own swimming pool, taking a romantic bath in your open-air bathroom or enjoying an intimate in-villa dining experience under the stars.

It is worthwhile spending some time in the hills of Ubud, where jungle-clad gorges and winding rivers make for some stunning scenery.  Enjoy the views from a chic but simple boutique resort and indulge yourself with a Balinese massage treatment or a tour of the local artists workshops. It is best to visit Bali in the months of April to October, making it ideal as a summer honeymoon destination.
