Search the board on each of these, they have been reviewed.

One observation for you, BlueBay is adults only if that helps....

Blue Bay has amazing food, pool and beach bar service to your sun lounger, huge pool bar, romantic sun beds for 2, relaxing pool music, no children, and special rooms with jacuzzi. Blue Bay is great value for your money. A perfect place for a honeymoon.

If you want to go a bit more upmarket since it is your honeymoon, I would definately go to the Maxim Bungalows in Cofresi. They are truly spectacular and cant be compared to the other 2 properties you mention...must my opinion.

Sun Village is on the same property of Maxim Bungalows. MB is new very new it is beautiful awesome rooms but MB is expensive so if that is a worry I would go to Sun Village and stay in a Spa room they are also beautiful you wont be disappointed with SV. I have also stayed at Blue bay and it is nice but it doesnt come close to SV or MB but it is a lot cheaper than both but I would recommened SV.

Casa Colonial is another GREAT choice for a honeymoon...a little pricey but quite a bit less than Maxin Bungalows I think...

Default Thanks everyone!

Yes, I should add that price is not a problem. We want the best! We hope we only have one honeymoon, so we want to make it memorable! So, looks like all the places are nice... Thanks so much for the information!

When i was looking for my holiday it was between the blue bay and gran ventana, ended up booking the gran ventana, wee bit more expensive and the reviews i read at the time were better for it, liked the idea of adults only in the blue bay though

So we are between the Blue Bay and the Sun Village.

We got a quote of 1700 dollars for 4 nights at the Sun Village in the Spa Room, which I think is a great deal. Or the Blue Bay for 1200. Though money is not an issue, I want to spend our money well. I want the best for the money. Any suggestions as to which we should choose.
