Honeymoon Hot Spots: Tensing Pen Resort in Negril, Jamaica

Looking for a romantic and secluded honeymoon destination? One of my favorite vacation spots hands down would have to be Jamaica. My husband and I spent four days and three nights in paradise last June. After doing tons of research via Tripadvisor, Kayak and various other sources, we settled on Negril, Jamaica. A few friends of ours raved about the beaches, locals, and affordability of Negril, so we took a chance.  As Tensing Pen only has a handful of cottages and villas, you are able to enjoy peace and quiet among the ocean. The service was great, other guests were friendly and the food, oh boy the food… IT WAS AMAZING! One of the best meals I have ever eaten was at Ivan’s Bar a few yards away from Tensing Pen.  Great food, great service and great prices make Tensing Pen the perfect location for your honeymoon! Below are a few photos from our vacation and Tensing’s website. Leave us a comment and let us know where you are planning to take your honeymoon!

Loved the view from the pool.

Honeymoon Spotlight: Aruba

It only seems fitting to showcase the beautiful island of Aruba, as that is where my husband and I honeymooned last August. We were blessed with a five day stay at the newly renovated Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort & Casino. Of the numerous resorts to choose from in Aruba, the Hyatt Regency is ranked at the top of the list. When researching a honeymoon location, we were looking for a luxury (but affordable) resort that had a casino, swimming pool, five star restaurants, and lots of entertainment near by. It is no secret that I enjoy a great meal and great company. What I loved most about Aruba was the food, friendly attitude of the locals, and gorgeous weather. Getting around the island was very easy and affordable. We had received a tip to take advantage of the local bus system, and it work out great. The Hyatt’s concierge attendant was a great help. He assisted us with booking dinner reservations and suggestions on things to do on the island. Aruba is only a three hour plane ride from Miami, which means more time vacationing, and less time traveling. Be sure to check out Madame Janette, Renaissance Mall for luxury shopping and Aruba Heli Tours for tours of the island. We can’t wait to go back to soak up the food, fun and sun!
