Ultimate Honeymoons

"A honeymoon, like the ideal wedding dress should be tailor-made to fit you perfectly"


The most expensive or well known hotels are not necessarily the best suited to honeymooners and by traveling as a couple ourselves we have realised the importance of finding places to please both the girls and the boys. Together we have visited and reviewed an extensive collection of hotels in order to select our favorites. The hotels and lodges we have chosen are all intimate and beautiful. Whether these hotels are in Africa or Italy, large or small, beach or bush, they all have one thing in common: they are all places we would stay for our own honeymoon.

This website is intended to give you a brief introduction to our properties and then we recommend you call us to discuss your honeymoon in more detail.

David & Lucy Benton Jones

David and Lucy - Our story:
It all started when I was approached by David, at a party, with a novel chat up line about how he was starting a new business which involved lots of travel and he needed a business partner. The ‘lots of travel’ bit got me interested and two weeks later we found ourselves spending a month in Kenya with a dilapidated Land Rover and thanks to our airline - no clothes. Not much business was done but we had a wonderful trip and returned home determined to start a travel company recommending the places we loved. Following two years of extensive travelling and research Ultimate Honeymoons was launched in 2002. Two years later we got married and to my great excitement we were able to experience one of our own Ultimate Honeymoons. To make sure we got the most out of it we took a 3 week honeymoon to include South Africa, the Seychelles and skiing in Zermatt! Now six years on we still travel as often as we can, both to visit current hotels and research new ones and the team has grown from the two of us squished in a cold dark office sharing one desk and one computer to five of us in a cosy and thankfully warm country office in Dorset.
