Honeymoon spot

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea

Hi,
We're looking for somewhere to go for our honeymoon, in late November. We have a rather limited budget and two small children (3.5 and 18 months by then) so we want somewhere very safe for them. My partner has never left New Zealand, and I went overseas with my family when I was little but haven't been anywhere since - so we have NO idea where to go. I would of loved to go to somewhere in Asia but don't think we can afford it so it looks like it will be somewhere in the Pacific. Can anyone give us some ideas?

I'd check out the Cooks and Fiji. Both have pretty cheap flights from NZ. Rarotonga has a nice shallow lagoon, pretty safe, so good for kids. Stay on or near Muri Beach.

Hi, we're hoping for about 7 nights away, budget of maybe three grand but could probably stretch that a bit more. We just want a nice, quiet, not too touristy place with a beach, maybe some nice walks
