Delayed Honeymoons
Attack of the revenge honeymooners For those who managed to get married in 2020, chances are the wedding was a subtler affair than originally planned and the honeymoon was postponed. The good news is that revenge honeymoons are coming back with a vengeance and with couples armed with savings from pared-back weddings, these are now bigger and more elaborate than ever. Honeymoon staples such as the Maldives, African safaris and multi-country South America adventures are frequent requests, but lately we’ve been seeing more offbeat pairings such as Jordan and the Seychelles, Bhutan and remote Indonesia, and an Antarctic cruise with Australia’s Great Barrier Reef as well.
Private Island Resorts
Holidaying Robinson Crusoe-style Seclusion, remoteness and privacy are all keywords we’re hearing as people look ahead to 2022 travel. For those with the means, booking a private island is the way to go. Banwa Private Island, located in the Philippines’ Palawan Province, is our top choice. The island can host 22 guests in six private-pool multi-bedroom villas, dotted across a 15-acre island where you can paddle board, indulge in unlimited spa treatments or head to the nearby UNESCO World Heritage Site of Tubbataha Reef for scuba diving or snorkelling.
