It’s not far from La Rioja, the region that made the wine so famous. If you love wine you should definitely include it in your gay honeymoon plans, and treat yourself to some of Spain’s finest. There are over 500 wineries to explore in La Rioja.
Spain has many beautiful islands. There’s something particularly romantic about an island honeymoon. It calls to mind boutique hotels, quaint shops and secluded stretches of coastline. You can find it all in the Balearic Islands, the four largest of which are Ibiza, Menorca, Mallorca and Formentera.
As well as romance and seclusion, Ibiza is, quite notoriously, home to some of the world’s most exciting superclubs. EDM might not be the soundtrack to your dream Spanish honeymoon, but fear not, there’s far more to Ibiza than clubs. The San Antonio Sunset Strip is a dreamy setting for a romantic evening and it’s home to some chic bars and restaurants.
For a more secluded setting, take a trip to Formentera. It’s just 17 km from Ibiza and it’s ideal for romance. Formentera is far quieter – so much so that it feels like an unspoiled paradise. You can stroll the El Pilar de la Mola market and explore the restaurants at La Savina on a peaceful gay honeymoon.
Andalucia is a great setting for a Spanish gay honeymoon. It’s a large region, covering much of Spain’s southern coast.

Granada is a must if you’re in Andalucia on your gay honeymoon. It’s impossibly romantic. You’ll see the remains of the Moorish culture that dominated southern Spain from the 8th until the 16th-centuries. Close to the Alhambra, you’ll find ‘El Albaicín’ District, the oldest Arab district and a great spot to view the Alhambra on the hill above.
It’s just one hour and a half to drive from Malaga to Ronda in the Ronda Mountains. On your way, you can visit some quaint pueblo blancos (white villages), each boasting dramatic views of the distant coastline and Morocco’s Atlas Mountains. When you arrive in Ronda you’ll be greeted by even more dramatic views, not least from Balcón del Coño. Ronda won the hearts of both Orson Welles and Ernest Hemingway.
Soho House is a fabulous choice. Some other great hotels for a honeymoon in Barcelona include Mandarin Oriental, Casa Bonay and El Avenida Palace.
Your private balcony in a chic hotel is always a good bet. You could also take your dearest one up Mount Tibidabo if you want panoramic views in the background – skip this one if they’re scared of heights though. You could also go for a private sunset cruise with a bottle of champagne.
That would be Marbella as it’s on the southern coast and close to Africa. Tenerife comes in close second.
