January Honeymoon - Ideas?

I'm looking for ideas for our January honeymoon - suggestions? We are in California and our budget is $3500. Is Hawaii doable on that budget? We'd like something outside of the continental US. I'm not sure where to start - so many options and I'm not a seasooned traveller. Any ideas are appreciated! Thanks!

  • We're doing Italy for 6 days for $3,000 (hotel & flight were only $1900), leaving from New Mexico. January should still be the off-season in Italy and you might be able to get pretty good deals.
  • We are going on our honeymoon in January. I really want to go somewhere tropical and where it won't be too cold!! We are going to Sandals in St. Lucia for about that price range.FYI - Plane tickets are very pricey around that time of year (Christmas/New Years) which is a major bummer :(
  • I think Hawaii could be doable for that price.  January is considered high season in Hawaii, so hotels will be more expensive that time of year.  I would suggest looking into the main island of Oahu (where Honolulu is).  It is the most populated of the islands and has the most hotels, so the prices will be more competitive.  You can also look into condo rentals at [url]http://www.vrbo.com[/url]     .  They have kitchens so you would be able to save on food costs.January is prime whale watching season (humpback whales migrate from Alaska to Hawaii for the winter to mate) so I would highly recommend a whale watching tour if you do end up going to Hawaii.Oh, and Oahu has the best public transportation of all the islands, so a rental car is not a necessity on that island.  Hawaii should be doable if you don't mind scrimping a little on lodging and food.I hope that helps and good luck!
  • Me and my fiance are going to Jamicia Sandals Whitehouse for that price range including airfare. Its the best time for Jamacia so I think it will be nice to leave snowy freezinggg weather (were in New England) and get away somewhere warm and really feel farrrrr awayyy!
