Default Honeymoon advice??

My fiance and I are planning to do our Honeymoon in mid to late August.
We are Canadians but will be moving to London shortly and would like
to plan our honeymoon from there.

We are very flexible in terms of location and duration, but price is a
concern. We are looking for a relaxing vacation spot with great food,
beaches, etc.

We have been too many countries in Europe (about 14 I think), and we
would like to try something new. We hope to go for a week minimum and
up to 3 weeks total.

Our budget is around 1,200GBP for the both of us including flights out
of London. Any suggestions, help, or info would be great!

Thanks
Matt

Need to narrow the options down a bit. You say you've been to 14 European
countries, so what would be "new" to you?

Dope or pot? Seems you can't decide. Well, with the choice you've got in
Holland...

"We have been too many countries in Europe (about 14 I think), and we

How about Salvador and Olinda in Brazil? Great beaches, good food,
friendly people, beautiful old city centers, lots of culture and
history, and after the flight it's inexpensive.

<< Azores. It's Hawaii for the poor :-) >>

But do you think the Azores fits their request for...
"We are looking for a relaxing vacation spot with great food, beaches, etc."?

Default Honeymoon advice??

Okay thanks for the replies. Firstly here is where we have gone
already:

-England
-Ireland
-Scotland
-France
-Belgium
-Switzerland
-Spain
-Greece
-Italy
-Germany
-Austria
-Poland
-Czech Rep.
-Hungry
-Slovakia
-Holland

More specifically we are looking for a nice place to relax and avoid
the stresses of travelling. We have done the backpack thing, and it
was great but for our honeymoon we want to not have to worry about
catching trains, worry about where we can afford to eat, etc.

I have been thinking of the souther Spain, Portual or Italy. We have
done the Greek Islands but in Spain we only went to Barcelona and in
Italy we did the major places north of Rome.


Can anybody fill me in on the Azores? Or any of the other suggestions.
Importantly are there any all inclusives like in the Dominican
Repbulic or Mexico? What are flight/vacation prices like?

Thanks again!
Matt
