Affordable Honeymoon Destinations

Isla Mujeres, Mexico

When you want an affordable honeymoon and jaw-dropping spots where you can relax and forget about the world, then you need Mexico. More precisely, you need Isla Mujeres—a place with crystal clear waters and astonishingly white sand making it one of the best honeymoon destinations out there.

No, we are not describing paradise although it may seem like it.

This island actually has great affordable 5-star hotels at Playa Norte beach, so if you want something luxurious, this is the type of accommodation you need.

Likewise, if you desire an adventurous honeymoon, then book an Airbnb to live like the locals.

Wherever you’re staying, there are plenty of activities for you, such as enjoying the tranquility of the beaches, exploring the local markets, or trying out seafood restaurants.
Best of all, Mexico is an easy trip to make when you’re having a San Antonio wedding.

Oahu, Hawaii

For many newlyweds, Hawaii is a dream honeymoon destination, but they are often discouraged from pursuing their dream because of their wedding budget. It is no secret that this magnificent place is quite pricey, so celebrating your marriage here and saving money do not go hand in hand.

However, this does not apply if you plan to travel during the offseason.

If you book your stay between April and the beginning of June, you will have the chance to have a miraculously affordable honeymoon in Hawaii.

During this period, the rates are considerably lowered, so you will have the opportunity to stay on a budget. Oahu is a great choice because it is close to the city center, meaning you can explore the beaches and the island’s history.

 

Ko Samui, Thailand

When you see pictures from Thailand, you probably assume that this is quite a costly place and that your wedding budget cannot cover the expenses.

The truth is, a plane ticket to Thailand can be really expensive, but the accommodation there is pretty much affordable. In addition, you will not need a lot of money to spend on different activities once you arrive.

So, our suggestion is to track cheaper flights because they are available once in a while. Once you find them, you can start planning your journey to one of the most beautiful honeymoon destinations in the world.
