Take a honeymoon in Mauritius
If you are looking for the perfect location to spend your honeymoon, I would highly recommend Mauritius. Having just arrived back home, I can honestly say that it was a brilliant decision , and one that we definitely would not have made without it being recommended to us by a lot of people .
Picking a location is hard , and I decided to leave it to my wife, as my only specification was that we find somewhere hot . But after hearing that she wished to go to Mauritius, I must admit that I was a bit concerned – purely for the fact that I didn’t know much about Mauritius, and had presumed that we would be heading somewhere in the Caribbean.
Anyway, after some consideration we made the decision to have our honeymoon in Mauritius. We found an online travel agent and were lucky to find an all inclusive Mauritius holiday for a very good price. The only problem was that we were not sure how good the hotel was going to be (because it was a new resort ) but once we’d arrived any anxieties we harboured quickly disappeared – the hotel was magnificent !
Mauritius holidays are becoming extremely popular; this is most likely to do with the price as much as anything – it’s much less expensive than it once was . But the price – in terms of what you get for your money – is extremely cheap . The weather is beautiful , the wildlife is exotic , the people are warm and hospitable , and the service and accommodation cannot be beaten .
During the honeymoon I was content to chill out by the sea the whole honeymoon, but my wife being my wife decided that she wanted to explore , and soak up some of the culture – which, at first, I mistook as code words for shopping and shoes ! So she dragged me along with her on the promise that I would be able to consume as much ice cream as my body could physically handle . Half expecting my credit card to be apprehended and abused , I made sure that we stopped and looked at anything that looked like it might have some culture or history attached to it … I probably went too far when I tried ( and failed) to pass off the public toilets as a great piece of history ! Anyway, I can honestly say that I’m glad my wife did drag me along because Mauritius is a beautiful country with a diverse culture… and they speak English! – Although the media is all in French! Mauritius has an array of astonishing mountains and forests , breathtaking coral reefs and beaches , and is home to one of the most famous surfing spots – Tamann Bay. It also used to be home to the Dodo bird . The cuisine is a mixture of all the various cultures, so there’s something for everyone .
