Why Choose Cruise for Honeymoon?

Susan Ryan 01 September 2023
Have you thought about a cruise for your Honeymoon? Cruise lines are constantly trying to outdo each other bringing out bigger and better ships every year. That’s great for us, it means more choice, but with that, how do you know which one to pick? That’s where I come in. As an award-winning Honeymoon Specialist, I can advise which cruise line and ship will suit you best. I have first-hand experience of a lot of the major cruise lines and there really is a cruise out there to suit everyone. Read on to find out 5 reasons why I think you should choose a cruise for your Honeymoon.

1) The Destinations

A Cruise is the perfect way to visit numerous cities or countries in the one trip without the hassle of packing and unpacking and wasting time at airports. You check in to your cabin – balcony cabin preferably to enjoy sunrise or sunset with your loved one – unpack once and wake up in a new destination every day. Imagine sailing away from Italy after a day exploring the Amalfi Coast and waking up in beautiful Santorini! You can also fly out a few days before or stay on a few days after the cruise to explore more of your surroundings.

2) The Food

Cruises are great for foodies. Generally, the main dining room and buffet are included in the cost of your cruise. You can happily eat here all week as there is so much choice in the buffet and the menu in the main dining room changes every evening. However, for the more adventurous there are also some amazing speciality restaurants with different experiences you can try for a supplement. These include speciality Italian, Sushi, Steakhouses and some unique dining experiences to name a few.

3) The Entertainment

There is so much to do onboard that you could easily stay on the ship for the entire cruise. There are pub quizzes, themed nights, casinos, west end shows, designer shopping, lots of different sports to try. The list goes on and each ship is different. You can be as relaxed or adventurous as you like from spa treatments to ziplining and everything in between!

4) Adult Only Areas

Most cruise ships are family friendly and in recent times we have seen the rise of multi-generational cruises where children, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles all cruise together on the one trip. This makes a cruise ideal for a Familymoon if you are planning on bringing your children with you on Honeymoon. However, if you want to be away from all the hustle and bustle and completely relax onboard there are adult only areas on every ship from pools to the spa, bars and casinos. Some ships have adult only decks and some cruise lines and ships are more suited to adults than others.

5) Value for Money

When you take into account the different countries you get to visit, the food, drink and entertainment onboard, a cruise really is the best value for money you will get for a Honeymoon. Keep an eye out for special offers – some ships do a buy one get one half price offer, others offer onboard credit and others offer great value drinks packages. The key is to book early for the best value and it also gives you more time to pay it off. Cruises go on sale up to two years in advance!
