7 day Honeymoon (without toddler)

[bridezilla]

Hi guys,

Advice Please!

We are getting married next spring, and planing to leave our then 2.5 year old at home with nanny and grandad!!

I have already said only 7 days as I really dont think I could do more without her.

I feel a mixture of guilt and excitement!

Do you think 7 days is OK/will be fine? any recommendations of places to go? we want a once in a lifetime type holiday but quite want to just relax with a little bit of excitement thrown in!

Thanks

Thailand ..... We went there and it was the right mix of relaxing, wonderful food, rented a bike, diving, walking and daily massages on the beach. Would go back in a heartbeat. Bangkok is fun for the exciting part!

Long way to go for a week though

We went for a week to Thailand and it was great. It's only 1 flight.

Maldives is 10 hour flight away, and BA fly direct now. There are plenty of amazing places to stay within a half hour speedboat ride or seaplane from the capital, so transfers are quick and hassle-free. Absolutely bugger all to do once you're there, but amazing diving / snorkelling to fulfil the excitement quotient... Happy to recommend places to stay if that would help

My husband and I went to st lucia for 7 days leaving our 2 little ones with grandma and grandad. It was a totally brilliant honeymoon and so pleased we did it. I too felt guilty but once we were out there we had such a great time. Enjoy!!
