Honeymoon packages in Hawaii

Hawaii has long been a favourite honeymoon destination for couples – there’s nothing more exotically romantic than a Hawaiian honeymoon package. With us at The Co-operative Travel, a honeymoon in Hawaii is no longer just a dream.

Hawaii isn’t just one island but many, all united by one the friendliest culture in the world. Your honeymoon package starts with bridal leis and a hula-skirted “Aloha” when you step off the plane, and continues in this vein to the moment you leave.

Hawaii is a region steeped in tradition and culture, and newlyweds are held in high esteem. People see the gently smoking, dormant volcanoes as a sign that bridal couples are bringing good luck to the islands. Not many people can claim that their wedding nuptials kept the gods happy!

Luxury wedding packages on the larger Hawaiian islands

For most couples, a honeymoon in Hawaii is a totally new experience. Many “play safe” with honeymoon locations on Hawaii (also known as Big Island), and Oahu – home to the party-loving resort of Honolulu.  These offer every Hawaiian experience you can think of, from surfing to volcano excursions to romantic wanders round Pearl Harbour.

However, the most popular resorts are dominated by family holidaymakers. Being surrounded by noisy kids is hardly the best start to married life! This is why tailor-made honeymoon packages at all-inclusive, adult-only resorts are often the best idea.

Newlyweds get an incredible standard of luxury, often with golf, health club, spa and private beach thrown in. They get a choice of 5-star restaurants, with superb local cuisine revolving around fresh fruit, coconuts and seafood. Honeymoon suites are wonderfully opulent, often with hot tubs, double hammocks, and private verandas. Live, traditional entertainment is laid on each night, orientated towards honeymooning couples.

Intimate and traditional – the smaller islands

For those planning weddings abroad, packages on the smaller islands of Niihau, Kauai, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe and Maui will appeal. They make good honeymoon locations too. Stay in a traditional bungalow facing onto the beach, and you can enjoy the unforgettable spectacle of sea-turtles coming ashore to lay their eggs. Later, you can relax in the lava pool in the outdoor spa.

Honeymoon locations in Hawaii are as varied as you are. Go surfing and deep-sea fishing from the beaches of Honolulu, or feast on sweet pineapples and coconut milk at a beach party in Maui.  Go whale-watching from Molokai, or fly over the volcanoes of Big Island in a chartered sea-plane. We at The Co-operative Travel recommend Hawaii as a honeymoon destination at any time of year.
