Recommendation for Honeymoon in Florida please!

My daughter is getting married mid August '27 and she and hubby want to take a quick honeymoon and stay domestic since she starts grad school early Sept '27.

They'd love something relaxing and spa like... beach accessible. But they are early 20's so maybe a little night life... not a lot. They just want to wind down after the wedding and relax for a while.

Ca anyone please recommend a nice SMALL spa like resort very close to the beaches?

They were thinking of the keys but I don't know a lot about that. I've been to Key West several times but not lately...and not sure what to suggest for them.

Anywhere else in the keys?

Thanks everyone!!

Florida in the middle of August for a honeymoon? I'd suggest - not at all. Maybe somewhere in North Carolina, or Virginia Beach. They have a better chance of actually enjoying the beach rather than suffering through it.

Thank you OBB!

I've been advised against the Bahamas and St Thomas. Anyone have thoughts on these places?

Fly into St. Thomas then get the boat to St. John. Absolutely beautiful island and much safer than St. Thomas.

Yes, but where? Small island with spa services.

Thank you so much for this suggestion!

But it's their honeymoon and I don't want them dodging "safety issues" if they want something quiet and spa like.

If the Keys are interesting...

Little Palm Island... click here

Bungalows... click here

Go on a short cruise - Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or Port Canaveral are all options. All meals and entertainment provided.

Spa services are extra.

Safety is not an issue.

Hands Down..........

Casa Marina Key West

Spa, private dinner on beach with sunset, water activities, walking distance to every where.

Well said! Tennessee mountains was our thought.

Don't forget Tampa and Jacksonville...we have five ports in Florida.

Take a three or four day MSC cruise out of Port Canaveral, and do the Yacht Club. There is a spa on the ship that is included and great, plus a personal butler, a separate dining room with great food, a separate bar and lounge, and Ocean Cay which has a private beach and restaurant for the yacht club, even a private pool and buffet with butlers. It is a ship within a ship away from the crowds in the rest of the ship. If it’s a honeymoon it should be special. I’ve done it several times (no, not honeymoon's) and have more scheduled.
