DESTINATIONS SECLUDED HONEYMOONS | WEDDINGS & HONEYMOONS 3 TAKE A TWIN-CENTRE TRIP


No one wants to rush home from honeymoon, so if clients have the luxury of a longer stay, it’s a good opportunity to pair up an easily accessible destination with one that requires an onward flight. East Winds (pictured) in Saint Lucia has teamed up with Bequia Beach Hotel to create a standout honeymoon package using the new Bequia Air route between the islands. Couples spend seven nights at East Winds, where romantic add-ons include a champagne sunset cruise or chocolate-making class, then make their way to Bequia on a nine-seat aircraft to enjoy its empty, untouched beaches and emerald-green


interior, with a superyacht cruise worth $600 thrown in for good measure. Book it: Elegant Resorts offers 14 nights in a Deluxe Cottage at East Winds and Beachfront Suite at Bequia Beach Hotel, both all-inclusive, plus flights, airport lounge passes and private transfers for £5,389 per person between January 20 and March 10, 2021. elegantresorts.co.uk


RECHARGE IN A JUNGLE RETREAT


Eco-luxe resorts are always a winner with honeymooners, offering the chance to reconnect with nature – and each other – while still allowing for little luxuries. Kalima Resort & Villas (pictured) in Khao Lak, Thailand, combines a jungle setting, surrounded by rubber plantations and wildlife-filled mangrove forests, with the golden sands of Khao Lak beach. Explore waterfalls at Sairung and Lampi, browse the stalls at Bangnieng afternoon market or take a boat trip around the area’s neighbouring islands, then return for a dip in the beachfront infinity pool or an early evening cocktail at the


open-air beach bar. Book it: Emirates Holidays offers a week at five-star Kalima Resort & Villas in Khao Lak from £975 per person including breakfast and upgrade to Grand Deluxe Room, and Emirates flights from Heathrow, valid from June 1 to July 10, 2021. emiratesholidays.com

GO ALL OUT IN GREECE


Even the most-secluded suite in a sprawling resort can’t compare to the privacy afforded by having your own villa in an out-of-the-way location, which is exactly what CV Villas’ new Above collection is all about. The luxury range offers top-end properties with a twist, whether that’s a private jetty and speedboat on hand or your own cinema and wine cellar, plus a concierge to arrange in- villa spa treatments or private chefs. Villa Glaros (pictured) on the small Greek island of Paxos offers plenty of ‘wow’ moments, not least sipping champagne in its private infinity


pool while looking out across the sparkling blue Ionian Sea. Book it: CV Villas offers a week at Villa Glaros from £1,281 per person including hydrofoil transfers and a day’s private boat hire; flights not included. cvvillas.com
