Now when people ask "Where are you going on your honeymoon?"

The answer is: El Dorado Seaside Suites!

Yep, it is too late for a poll. We pulled the trigger and booked our honeymoon! We worked with a travel agent and once we had our options narrowed down to 3 choices it was a really easy pick. The clear winner is The El Dorado Seaside Suites (about an hour outside of Cancun, Mexico). The resort has wonderful reviews and even made the 2006 Forbes list of Top Ten Most Romantic Beach. And we really couldn’t pass up the Swim-up Junior Suite. These pool lounge chairs right outside our door completely sold us.


Plus we get a complimentary honeymoon package with massages, champagne and a candlelight dinner on the beach! We will spend 7 nights basking in the sun at this all-inclusive, adults only resort! We are leaving Knoxville on October 19 and returning on the 26. Woohoo! And the real clincher? It was the best price out of all the trips!

And yes, we are taking the risk of hurricane season. But we purchased good travel insurance so if anything does happen we are covered. We couldn’t justify the travel time we would need to go anywhere that isn’t in hurricane season.
