Well we have just come back from a holiday from Nice.

We chose Nice, because it was a single direct flight and I needed a 2 day holiday.

We booked our flights with EasyJet.com which seemed to be the cheapest, even so they charge for baggage as an extra.

Car hire was expensive but we chose to rent a car just for the ease of getting around, we paid about £90.00 for 2 days

Aiprort parking we looked around and found Fhr was the cheapest for airport parking

Hotels
We where looking for an expensive quality hotel at a cheap price, we used the 1hotelsearch hotel search engine and was astounded to find a Hotel in nice 4 stars at only £100.00 a night, the correct price should have been about £280.00

The problem with renting a car is that at hotels you have to park in a public parking which costs about 24 euro a day.

Nice, the beaches are rocky, so we drove to Caanes, which has lovely sandy beaches. We wanted a quite beach, so we went to a private beach in caanes and we where told to pay 37 euro a person, I asked the person if I dont use the towel and deckchair, how much would it be, and she replied its free, so we had this quite beach to ourselves.

We drove up to Monaco (monte carlo) to visit the casinos, not to play but just to see what the fuss is all about, I must say it was worthwhile seeing, remember if you go to take your passport with you because they wont let you into the casino without your passport.

The drive to monaco is nice and you have the option of taking the toll roads or not, as a tourist I wouldnt take the toll road, the (free ) route is very scenic, but if you are in a rush take the toll road, it is only about 2.50 euro.

Shopping in Nice: dont even bother everything is a fortune, we popped into cap3000 whichis a shopping mall next to the airport, you can take a bus there for about 1.50 euro from nearly any area in nice.

Not to be missed is the market in the old town of nice, between 9 - 1 in the mornings.

If you are into walking visit the Valderblora mountains or Valderberg, which has snow topped peaks and lovely views.

In Cannes you can take a boat trip across to monac which is nice and exciting.

If you are feeling pumped and young, you can rent a moped from ADA which is is the main town of Nice, a 50cc moped costs only 26 euro a day.

Overall we had a nice time, we where there for 2 days and packed in quite a bit, I couldnt spend more than a week in Nice, but each to there own

Our selected honeymoon destination for the month of June is the Dominican republic.

Capital city: Santo Domingo
Population: 9.5 million
Flight times: 10 hours

Average weather forecast in June is 38 degrees with low humidity

there are 5 resorts in the Dominica republic
Bahia Maimon
Cabarete
Cofresi
Playa Dorada
Puerto Plata
Sosua

Bahia Maimon is a little further west from Cofresi and comprises a complex of three hotels beside a sandy beach. This quiet resort is perfect for a totally relaxing beach getwaway. It is here that Columbus established his first settlement in the Americas. Unlike the busier resorts of Sosua and Playa Dorada, Bahia Maimon is utterly tranquil and restful, yet still contains the soft sandy beach and turquoise sea that attracts people to the area. A perfect choice for a break away from the rat race, you are sure to leave feeling relaxed and refreshed.

Cabarete stretches out beside a ribbon of fine sand around a sweeping bay. It lies about 30 km east of Puerto Plata and is backed by a meandering lagoon. Watersports are a popular pastime here - particularly windsurfing. There’s also a selection of small gift shops and amenities around the Plazez Commerical Centre. Night-life is focused along the beach where you can find numerous restaurants.

Cofresi lies ten kilometres to the west of Puerto Plata, the capital of the Amber Coast. It was named after an infamous Puerto Rican pirate, Captain Roberto Cofresi - regarded by many as a Puerto Rican version of Robin Hood, due to his practise of sharing his bounty with the needy. What began as a small fishing village is now a stunning resort, with a divine golden sandy beach lapped by crystal clear waters.

Playa Dorada A playground for sun worshippers and golfers, this purpose-built area embraces many top quality hotels and night-spots, a commercial centre and renowned golf course right on the beach and 6.5 kilometres from Puerto Plata town. The central point is Plaza Playa Dorada, a cluster of shops, restaurants and local amenities.

Puerto Plata Founded in 1502, this charming, historic town is the capital of the Amber Coast. Situated at the base of Mount Isabel de Torres, it offers plenty for all ages. Enjoy a walk along the Malecon or take the cable car to the summit of Mount Isabel de Torres with its botanical gardens

Sosua A popular resort on the north coast, Sosua combines a fantastic horseshoe-shaped beach of golden sand with a wide array of entertainment. The laid-back atmosphere is relaxing, yet away from the sands there are abundant souvenir shops, restaurants, cafes and music bars to keep you happy - all of which have a typical Dominican feel.

We where looking for a honeymoon idea for May and after much research we didnt find a great selection of honeymoon holiday ideas. Our criteria for a honeymoon destination has to be that it has a beach its hot but not too humid. Looking at all other Honeymoon destinations for may, we found humidity too high.

We selected cancun which is in mexico

Cancun in May is hot but humidity is low, so you dont feel sweaty the whole time

What to do in Cancun

Watersports in Cancun
If you’re into watersports, then Mexico has plenty to offer. The coastal resorts all cater for enthusiasts and beginners. Snorkeling, wind- and kitesurfing, parasailing and sailing are all available. For a different underwater experience visit the ‘cenotes’ or caves, lying just off the highway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. They’re favorites with divers, snorkelers, and swimmers.

Swimming With Dolphins in Cancun
There are a number of marine parks and resort-based companies that offer the rare chance to swim and interact with dolphins.

Golf in Cancun
Combine sightseeing with a round of golf. Mayan ruins can be seen on some of the scenic courses centred around the resorts.

Cancun Shopping
The best buys in Mexico include silverware, ceramics and locally made pottery, woven wool blankets (sarapes), brightly colored scarves in wool or silk (rebozos), richly embroidered charro hats, straw work, blown glass, embossed leather, hard- and semi-precious stones, gold and silver jewellery, finely pleated men’s shirts in cotton voile (guayaberas), white dresses embroidered with multi-colored flowers (huipiles), which are sold in the markets, and hammocks. And of course, there’s tequila! The best shopping is in Mexico City, Acapulco, Campeche, Cuernavaca, Guadalajara, Merida, Oaxaca, San Miguel de Allende and Taxco.

Cancun Cuisine
Obviously tequila is what first comes to mind, and it’s not surprising with over 200 different varieties. Cancun is home to a restaurant called La Destilleria, an old tequila distillery that was brought from Mexico City piece by piece (supposedly). It features dozens of tequilas for guests to try and buy. In addition to this, no holiday is complete without trying Mexican Fajitas and Guacamole.

Cancun Night-life
Said to be the Ibiza of the Caribbean, Cancun is home to several night clubs as well as salsa, theme and small family bars - and with a resort of 1 million people you’re guaranteed a very lively atmosphere.

Mexico currency is Mexican peso, the current exchange rate is about £1 = 20mxn

Flying time to Mexico Cancun:
Flying time is about 12 hours and they are about 7 hours behind us in time, so when its 7pm in the uk it would be 12pm in Mexico.

Varca in goa The relaxed atmosphere of Varca means you can spend most of the day on the sands, but take time out to go dolphin spotting and then back again in time for tea in one of the shacks run by local residents, who serve the most incredible local seafood and liquour. Sounds idyllic? It is!

Best time to go on a honeymoon to varca goa is from november to April

There are 2 5 star hotels in Varca

About Dubai

Dubai has a population of just 1.25 million people. Most of the revenue in Dubai is income from oil, but unlike other Arab countries, Dubai is investing into Solar energy, to provide for the future

A unique destination for the discerning traveller and for Honeymoons, dynamic Dubai is where Arabia meets the West. One of the most sophisticated Emirates, it provides modern day comforts and a rich culture with long-established traditions. Pale sandy beaches lined with lavish hotels stretch along the Gulf coast, whilst traditional souks and superb shopping malls vie for trade and adventurers embark on desert safaris across the Arabian dunes. With year-round sunshine and a luxurious lifestyle, Dubai is sure to please.

Dubai is famous for its towering skylines, fabulous tax-free designer shopping and gorgeous beaches. But there’s more to this city than just bling. The gulf coast offers sports opportunities aplenty, including golf and windsurfing, while the region around Dubai is worth exploring for its arid desert landscape, ancient villages and the eastern rocky range of the Hajjar Mountains.

The city itself is where most people base themselves staying in holiday apartments in Dubai itself, or opting for hotels. Holiday villas in Dubai are another accommodation alternative, allowing you to choose to go self-catering. In Dubai you’ll find it’s easy to eat out, the standard and choice of restaurants is impressive although mostly being based in hotels, which are the only licensed places in the city. A beautiful holiday destination and a great honeymoon destination for March April and May, Dubai does much to impress and persuade return visits.

* Jebel Ali Beach - 1 Hotels or Villas
* Jumeirah Beach - 7 Hotels or Villas

When booking a hotel its worth reading reviews to see what other customers think. When a hotel gets its rating, it never gets re-rated, so you can have a hotel built in the 1960 with a 4 star rating, but when you get there, the rooms may be drab and lacking paint, the swimming pool can be old and tatty. Try and read reviews or look for a hotel that has had a facelift within the last 5 years
