Choosing the best warm winter honeymoon destination depends on your individual preferences, budget, and desired activities.
Warm destinations in December and other months in the winter season include the Maldives, Thailand, Malaysia... and others in the Far East.
Here are some top picks for warm destinations in winter:
Chile
If you love chilly weather, then all you need to do is pack your skis and head to the Andes Mountains in Chile for an action-packed honeymoon. May we suggest The Valle Nevado Ski Resort, one of several hotels that offer an extravagant ski experience in the Southern Hemisphere?
This destination can give you a combination of fun activities and relaxed quality time, together with amazing restaurants, lounges, and spas.
Hawaii
Hawaii is known to have excellent weather all year, but winter has a few extra perks. Be sure to check out the amazing viewing spots, including the protected Auau Channel (between Lanai and Maui) and the warm shallows off Maui’s west coast.
Surf season starts in late October and runs through March so you’ll find a lot of beach action and fun activities taking place around that time.
Quebec
Quebec offers honeymooners both cosmopolitan flavor and lots of winter fun. Auberge Le Vincent is one of our favorite places to stay, a cozy yet modern inn with luxury facilities like flat-screen TVs, goose-down duvets, and 400 thread-count sheets.
It only has 10 rooms, which offers honeymooners privacy as well as exquisite personalized service. Enjoy the pampering, then head out to a fun day at the Valcartier Vacation Village, a lovely winter playground.
Japan
It’s not exactly the first name that pops into your mind when you’re thinking honeymoon or winter fun, right? But Japan is actually very well known for its Niseko-Annupuri Mountains.
Niseko, a world-renowned ski town, is home to the Niseko Kogan Hotel, a ski resort with beautiful décor and amazing facilities, including 59 rooms, a variety of restaurants, and shops.
Argentina
A winter wedding at home means a summer honeymoon in Buenos Aires. This magical place has something for every honeymooner to fall in love with, from the painted houses and street performers in rough-and-tumble La Boca to the artsy Retiro and the downtown’s monument-studded avenues. You must pencil in a day of shopping at Palermo (known for leather goods), then tango dancing.
The traditional dinner in Argentina is Parilla (barbecue) with grilled meats like sirloin steak, sausages, and chicken, so be sure to try that!
