The USA is one of the best destinations on earth for a gay honeymoon. Naturally, the United States is a vast country so the kind of honeymoon experiences you can have are very varied.
From the bright lights of New York City to the desert oasis of Palm Springs, you can opt for a vast city or a more remote destination.
We also work closely with many ranches, retreats and luxury hotels that offer a wide range of honeymoon perks. The hotel you choose will be key to making your honeymoon an unforgettable experience. You can also opt for a twin-center itinerary, such as LA and Palm Springs or Miami and Key West.
A gay honeymoon in Hawaii is also a great choice. Combining your gay wedding and gay honeymoon in the USA could be a great option or thinking about a gay retreat in the USA is also another great idea. Let’s explore some of the highlights.
Gay Honeymoons In the USA
Gay Honeymoons In the USA
New York is a hugely popular honeymoon destination. It has everything you could possibly want, from the best hotels to the best nightlife. It’s a great choice if you’d like a more action-packed honeymoon. So many romantic movies and TV shows have been filmed in New York, giving it a mystique few cities can match. You’ll have to ride in a carriage through Central Park like Carrie and Mr Big!
Key West is located in one of the most remote parts of the USA. It’s long been a gay-popular destination and it’s a great choice for honeymoons. You can begin in Miami and then explore the Florida Keys, including the ever-glamorous Everglades. Key West will be a great final destination. It has great boutique hotels decked out in the charming and unique Floribbean style the island is known for.
Combining LA with Palm Springs makes for a great twin-centre itinerary, especially for a gay honeymoon in the USA. LA is, of course, one of the most exciting cities in the world. You could stay at a historic hotel like the Chateau Marmont, a favorite haunt of Holywood royalty. Palm Springs is a favored getaway for Holywood types and gay people. The population of West Hollywood is estimated to be 40% LGBTQ and over in Palm Springs it’s over 50% LGBTQ – you’ll struggle to find more gay-popular destinations for your honeymoon.
