For LGBT couples who love to travel, the honeymoon is just as important as the wedding itself — if not more important! If you see yourself enjoying post-wedding bliss somewhere far-flung and exotic, then you’ll be thrilled by our picks for marvelous spots to host your celebratory trip. Fill your days with beauty and leisure and your nights with romance at one of these gay-friendly honeymoon destinations that you and your partner will cherish forever.
Though most visitors would argue that every inch of Hawaii is breathtakingly beautiful, there’s something undeniably special about Kauai. Maybe it’s the stunning waterfalls, the dramatic promontories, the white-sand beaches, or the ever-lush rainforests. Or maybe it’s simply that Kauai offers a more subdued paradise than you’ll find on Hawaii’s other islands. Either way, it doesn’t get much better than the Garden Isle for an LGBT honeymoon.
Among the island’s most celebrated assets is Hanalei Bay, an award-winning two miles of awe-inspiring coastline backed by mountainous curves that make it a must-see on a gay honeymoon. After a refreshing dip or a stand-up paddleboard session, stop in at gay-friendly Bar Acuda to dine on the farm-to-table fare on a pretty lanai.
And since your celebratory jaunt to the Pacific Islands represents a once-in-a-lifetime moment, splurge on a base that won’t disappoint. We’re smitten by the 5-star
Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa, a GayTravel Approved® property set on 50 acres of oceanfront, with waterfalls, a 150-foot waterslide, a saltwater lagoon, and a river pool.
This splendid property is a no-brainer for marvelous gay honeymoons, but it’s also a top spot in Kauai to tie the knot. In fact, this property is a two-time GayTravel Award winner for best wedding hotel! Say “I do” with the ocean as a backdrop, or have your ceremony in the lush gardens, complete with those irresistible ocean views.
