1. Book in Advance

It is important to leave time to plan your honeymoon properly in order to get it just how you want. Spending time going through your options allows you to truly understand what you both want to get out of the honeymoon.

Organising the trip early on will keep things stress-free and relaxed, setting the tone for your romantic getaway.

2. Take your time: No Need to Rush

Traditionally, the bride and groom would fly away together the day after the wedding, however, there is no need to rush.

Delaying the honeymoon can keep the post-marriage excitement alive as it gives you something to look forward to after the wedding is over. Jetting off at a time that is right for you will allow you to embrace relaxation as soon as you arrive, and enjoy the vacation to the maximum.

3. Plan your Honeymoon together: Communication is Key

Communication is always important when booking a trip. And a honeymoon is no exception. Understanding what you are both looking for will be beneficial to making the booking process smoother, and result in the honeymoon you have always dreamed of.

There are so many options to choose from around the world, and the most popular are awaiting you in the Indian Ocean, with picturesque locations and stunning accommodation available.

4. Find a Picturesque Location for your Honeymoon Trip

Find the right location to suit your needs for a breathtaking honeymoon.

The Indian Ocean offers an array of picturesque destinations, each with its own unique charm and allure. Whether you dream of lounging on pristine beaches, exploring vibrant coral reefs, or immersing yourself in rich cultural heritage, the options are endless. 

With a selection of Constance Hotels & Resorts across Mauritius, Maldives, Seychelles and Madagascar, each location offers an entirely different and unique way to experience the Indian Ocean with your spouse.

5. Check the weather conditions for the time of year you plan to travel 

Weather can never be guaranteed but if you’re travelling long haul it’s always worth checking out what the season is going to be in your dream destination. While the Indian Ocean provides year-round warmth and sunshine there are seasonal variations which could be important if you’re planning activities. 

 Those dreaming of diving the largely unexplored waters of Madagascar or watching the stunning display of humpback whales will need to plan their visit from June to November. Big game fishing enthusiasts would want to be in Mauritius from October to April. For those who dream of swimming with Manta Rays the Maldives from December to March would be a ideal time.
