We recently got to attend an event where we got to interact with lots of people thinking about their honeymoons.  We were at a local bridal show. 

The one question we get more than almost any other question would be, "Is this or that place really worth the $$?"

Since Angel and I have been doing this for awhile I usually give my quick 5 second handy reply, "It depends"!

What a hard question to answer about travel.  So I go here are there because I can save an extra $ or because there is some extra value with that choice Vs the other? 

It really comes down to what is important to you.  Anytime you are leaving your home you should think about what is in it for me.

Do I want to relax?  Eat and sleep?  Be really active during the day and dance the night away.  Do I like to fish or surf?  Does the room really matter with a great view or is looking at the bushes all day just fine.

Do not look at your choices in the total $ cost.  This will be a huge mistake.  Yes, we all have budgets and we must stick to them but does your travel agent know this?  Why are you looking at honeymoon trips that cost $7,000 for the week when you should be looking at the $3500 honeymoons?

Narrow your choices down to 3 that do fit your budget then look at what each offers.  Does the resort give you free breakfast?  Maybe one choice throws in a tour of the area.  Another may have an upgraded view of the ocean.  Can I relax at this resort or do they provide many activities? I think you get the point.

What is important to you?  Spend time with your partner planning what you want to get out of your honeymoon then you will have the answer to that question.
