Some suites don’t just offer a place to sleep—they offer a story you’ll tell forever. I didn’t want these moments to rush by. Each suite on this list held a kind of magic: private pools suspended over turquoise water, open-air showers tucked into jungle greenery, floor-to-ceiling windows framing the soft curve of moonlight on the ocean. I remember thinking, “This isn’t just a room—it’s the beginning of something.” And it was. These are the suites where the world outside faded, and love took up all the space.
Unique Honeymoon Suites
Over-Water Suites in the Maldives
Our overwater suite at Anantara Dhigu felt like it had been placed there just for us—floating between sky and sea, wrapped in silence and sun. The glass panels in the floor let us watch reef fish swim below the bed, and mornings started with the sea shimmering under our feet. I remember thinking, “We’re not just visiting paradise—we’re living inside it.”

Spectacular Suites with Infinity Pools in St. Lucia
I’ll never forget the moment we stepped into our sanctuary at Jade Mountain. With only three walls, the suite opened fully to the sea and the Pitons—green spires rising from the blue. The infinity pool shimmered just steps from the bed, and the open-air layout made everything feel endless. I remember thinking, “This view will live in my mind for the rest of my life.”

E-WOW Suite at W South Beach
The E-WOW Suite at W South Beach didn’t whisper romance—it shouted it in neon and velvet. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the Atlantic like a mood board, and the wraparound balcony was made for dancing barefoot after dark. From the moment we walked in, the energy was high, sexy, and slightly surreal. I remember thinking, “This is the honeymoon for the couple who came to celebrate—loudly.”

Waterfront Villa with a Private Pool in the BVI
Little Dix Bay felt like it had pressed pause on the entire world. Our suite opened onto the beach, where the sand was soft and the water barely whispered when it touched the shore. We’d wake to sunlight on the sea and fall asleep to the sound of waves. I remember thinking, “This is what forever could feel like—calm, warm, and completely untouchable.”
What I Loved Most: Outdoor showers under the stars and morning swims just steps from our bed—it all blurred the line between nature and luxury in the best way.
My highlights? A candlelit dinner at Pavilion, where I had the grilled Caribbean snapper with plantain mash and a tangy tamarind glaze. The view, the quiet, the company—it was as close to perfect as a meal could be.

I remember thinking, “This isn’t just romantic—it’s sacred.”
What I Loved Most: Afternoon naps in the shaded daybed on our private deck, the scent of salt in the breeze and time completely forgotten.

Conclusion: Why These Suites Stayed in My Heart
Each of these honeymoon suites left something behind—something we took with us long after the trip ended. Maybe it was the way the breeze moved through open windows in Saint Lucia, or the feel of soft sand outside our private door in Fiji. Or maybe it was simply the quiet moments—when we looked at each other and knew we’d remember this forever. I remember thinking, “Home isn’t always a place—it’s the feeling you find when love and beauty meet in the same room.” And these suites? They gave us that feeling, again and again.
