With the right kind of weather, spectacular view of the hills, exquisite culture, and beautiful backwaters, Kerala had the perfect flavors for the kind of trip we were looking for. So, we knew where we had to head for our honeymoon. The dream only became a better experience when we booked our honeymoon trip to Kerala with Travel Triangle.
I got to know about Travel Triangle through a friend who had earlier had a great experience, and he only recommended me to book our trip from there. They got me in touch with Rocking Trips travel agency, which was a great help. Initially, the package that we got was for a 5 days trip to Kerala, but since we wanted to explore a few other places as well, they customized it accordingly and offered us a 7 Days and 6 Nights Honeymoon Trip. Even the quote for the trip was pretty decent and fitted my pocket well as compared to other travel agencies and their packages.

Day 5: A stay at Kovalam’s Beachside Resort
On the fifth day, we drove to our next stop, which was Kovalam. It was a good 4.5 hours of drive, so we reached our resort in the afternoon.

Being situated on a beach, it creates a perfectly romantic aura to enjoy for you and your better half.
We relaxed for a while in our room and then headed out to visit the beaches. At the first beach, we stopped by to enjoy a boat ride. After that, we visited another beach and then headed back to relax in our resort. We began our next morning again with a visit to the beach. It was worth soaking up the sun there and taking a leisure walk together. All in all, the resort was amazing and so was our stay here.

- Kerala is a beautiful place down south to get closer to nature and spend quality time with your better half on your honeymoon. Try to plan at least a week long trip if not more than that.
- When in Munnar, try booking a hotel that’s near the city, unless you’re looking for a secluded romantic retreat.
- Book your trip and hotels well in advance as a little delay might make you miss out on your dream view room.
- Do check the weather before you pack your bags and plan your honeymoon trip to Kerala.
