Top 5 Honeymoon Destinations In Europe
There is hardly anything more romantic than taking a vacation together with your loved one, which is why going on a honeymoon is the perfect post-wedding activity. While a honeymoon is special in itself, it can be made even more unforgettable by choosing a romantic destination. Having trouble deciding? If so, choose from these top destinations in Europe.
Strolling through Prague
Going for a quiet stroll is one of the most romantic activities and one best enjoyed under the dim light of the stars and the old-fashioned street lamps in the winding cobblestone streets of Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. Enjoy the scenic views while walking hand in hand on uncrowded lanes where horse-drawn carriages pass by at their own leisurely pace. You can always hail one if you get tired so you can snuggle up the rest of the way to your hotel or rent a rowboat on the Vltava river to add even more magic to your evening.
There are other cities in Europe that are perfect for a romantic evening stroll, including Bruges in Belgium and Tallinn in Estonia. It goes without saying that the cities of Paris and Rome are worth considering as destinations for European romantic getaways, too.
Most Romantic Hotel - The Hotel de la Cite
There are many romantic hotels in Europe but if you really want to be treated like royalty or get a fairy tale experience, staying at the Hotel de la Cite is a fantastic idea. Located in Carcassonne, France, the Hotel de la Cite is actually a well-preserved castle located in a medieval citadel, which means you’ll get to enjoy spectacular views while going up and down spiral staircases and strolling through formal gardens. The individually furnished hotel rooms and suites are equipped with the latest amenities, though, including Wi-Fi access, satellite TV, a video recorder and even a laptop computer available upon request.
Dining at Le Manoir
Just as the best dates consist of a romantic dinner for two, there is no doubt that the excellent cuisine of Europe contributes to memorable European romantic getaways. One of the places where you can sample this is at the Le Manoir in the village of Oxfordshire, a two Michelin-starred restaurant which offers meticulously prepared dishes spiced with fresh herbs grown in its own two-acre backyard and excellent wines coupled with a charming ambience of relaxing countryside views and candlelight. Reserving a table weeks in advance is recommended.
Lounging on the Sands of Papa Cove
Europe also has many wonderful beaches and coves for those who love soaking up the sun and the sand, such as the Papa Cove on the eastern shore of the Ios island in Greece. This cove offers warm golden sands, calm crystal waters that are perfect for swimming and most importantly, walls of rock that provide a sanctuary for lovers, shielding them from the noise and the crowds of nearby beaches.
St. Moritz Ski Resort, Switzerland
Do you want to spend your honeymoon in a winter wonderland? Then go to St. Moritz ski resort in Switzerland. Nestled in the Swiss Alps right in the middle of the breathtaking Engadine lake region, the St. Moritz ski resort offers great slopes, as well as many panoramic hotels and restaurants so you can have a romantic dinner or snuggle in front of a fire after a day of skiing.
These are just some great honeymoon destinations for your European romantic getaways, all of which are perfect places for making memories that last a lifetime. Indeed, what matters most is that you and your loved have a great time together, so that even when you return home, the honeymoon will still go on for years to come.
