More outgoing A-listers like to honeymoon in resorts that offer a variety of activites. Take La Samanna, the majestic Orient-Express beachfront resort in St. Martin, one of the spots where Courteney Cox Arquette and David Arquette spent time. “Not only does it provide the highest level of privacy in the Caribbean, it’s a resort with a complete infrastructure,” said Domingo Velasco, La Samanna’s director of sales and marketing. “The resort offers everything from a spa, fitness center, pilates studio, three tennis courts, water spots galore and multiple options for dining.” All this and just 80 rooms.
Some operations like the St. Regis Resort Bora Bora have deluxe accommodations that are self-contained resorts within the resort, providing the ultimate in privacy. For their honeymoon, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban stayed at the St. Regis Bora Bora’s 13,000-square-foot secluded Royal Estate. With three bedrooms, two living rooms, a chef's kitchen, dining room, private swimming pool, office, and a spa area with a sauna, hammam and whirlpool, there’s no need to mingle with the hoi polloi.
But even when they rent out an entire hotel, like honeymooners Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston reportedly did when they stayed at Fregate Island in the Seychelles, or park themselves on a friend’s yacht, like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes in the Maldives, stars are not averse to doing their own honeymoon planning. “It’s funny the way people perceive celebrities, but in my experience they have all been very involved in the research of the trip and like all of us they call their travel agent to help book it,” said Weiss. “And yes, celebrities love using their miles!”
From Bora Bora to the Bahamas, we've looked at the best resorts and locales for honeymooning or marrying celebrities. Because like all newlyweds, they’re looking for once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
