Best caribbean island for honeymoon
I am looking for a good honeymoon destination in the Caribbean. Looking for somewhere very relaxed and not too built up, fantastic beaches, some good restaurants and small boutiquey hotel. I havnt been before so can anyone recommend the best caribbean island for honeymoon? Seems lots of choice, but they also seem a bit different. it would be really useful to get some first-hand advice on the best place to go!!

fantastic beaches, some good restaurants and small boutiquey hotel, well Curacao has all that and more. Aruba for example is way too crowded and Americanized for my taste. Anguilla is aimed at the high-end tourist. Bonaire is way too small, and known for its faboulous diving sites. Curacao on the other hand is more diverse and more of a combination of cosmopolitan atmosphere meets Caribbean charm. I would recommend you the 5 star Kura Hulanda Lodge at the westcoast which is a renowned romantic destination.
Good luck searching!

We've recently published a page of www.101holidays.co.uk/honeymoon-ideas/ that you might want to check out.
Congratulations on your weeding , you should go to Dominican Republic, i can recommend going to Punta cana, to the sanctuary hotel , is an all inclusive hotel only for adults. if you want i can send you a deal for a week in paradise.
If everything else fails, a cruise that stops at several Caribbean islands is a great way to get a good snapshot of that part of the world and still enjoy a fabulous honeymoon.
Good luck!

If you like beach, Id like to recommend to Phuket or Cook Island and St. Kitts, Antigua Islands, St. Lucia. There are almost beautiful islands with crystal water and romantic atmosphere. Beside you will be interesting with many things to explore: experience fine dining, great shopping, and a thriving nightlife scene, beach activities
Great hotel and fantastic beach
I am also from SA but worked on board cruise ships for a while and traveled through the Caribbean for many months. ok, there are amazing places on every island, but not all of them will be cut out for the typical honeymoon. I absolutely loved barbados, st maarten and st croix, but they are both pretty americanised and built. although, its really safe and relatively cheep. st maarten is a little bit more interesting than the other two because of its dutch/french backgrounds though. this is very touristy all year round since its an amazing place for duty free shopping. st croix though, does have really amazing places where tourists dont often come. taking a bike ride all over the island is great.
I also loved dominica (not the republic of dominica) for its amazing mountains with hot sulfur springs and some of the best diving spots ever. they have the amazing champainge coral and its really something to experience. in dominica though, the people are generally rude and its almost like a township in most towns. even with all that, its still one of the places i want to go back to.
Ive heard of nice places (resorts) in st Lucia but honestly never saw anything amazing compared to other islands. i also really did not enjoy trinidad or tobago. this is much more like a township as the towns are filthy. they do have great beaches on one side of the island though.
I adore puerto rico, the people are amazing, they have stunning beaches and great forests to see. it will be very easy for you to go there on your greencard. ive been to a few islands around the main island and each time it was a time ill never forget, hotels are easy to find and is inexpensive. there are loads and aloads of things to do. Depending on where you come from in SA, i always felt like im home when i was walking around in 'old san juan'.
oh, Antigua , the most amazing blue waters, very laid back vibe. generally safe and cheap. there are loads of things to do as well and if you move just out of the large towns the scenery becomes amazing.
Guadalupe (not sure about spelling) is very very dangerous, i did enjoy the architecture and so on but we had horrid stories of people being robbed and even the people from the city self would stop their cars and tell us (in french) that we should hide our camera's and bags etc. so even though it is beautiful ,i wont suggest it really.
uhm ,i have been to more places but these were the ones to stand out id say...if you need any more advice, feel free to contact me!
A temporary passport should be accepted, but it's a good idea to contact the embassy and find out for sure, as things can change without notice.
