There’s no place like Greece & the Greek Islands for a truly classic honeymoon experience & indeed, many of its island resorts were built primarily with romance in mind. At Cavo Tagoo Resort on Mykonos, for example, the overall seductive design screams romance & intimacy-everything from the infinity pool overlooking the blue Aegean Sea, to the chic, luxurious & comfortable rooms & suites, all designed to embody a contemporary minimalist island aesthetic while remaining true to the traditional character & architecture of the Cycladic Islands. All modern amenities & conveniences are provided to ensure an experience of utter comfort in an elegantly minimalist & relaxed chic setting, while excellent touches of luxury are added such as jacuzzi tubs & private pools. The Cavo Tagoo Spa is also designed with a focus on classic Greek beliefs & legends & has been ideally placed in a unique location immersed in Cycladean light, facing Delos, the birthplace of the mythical God of the sun, Apollo. Its mission, they say, “…is to fuse the latest in international spa trends with a simultaneous, traditional Greek approach to wellness & beauty in our award-winning treatments & products. The Cavo Tagoo Spa Experience is an indigenous journey of the six senses-see, smell, touch, hear, feel, & experience.” Couples can also take tours to Delos, charter boats or rent cars for trips to the Mykonos town.
On Santorini, honeymoon and lovers will be mesmerized by the Andronis Luxury Suites, a breathtaking all-suite boutique hotel that sits high above the sea with panoramic views of a volcano or caldera soaring into the sky across the water.
