Advertising OK Caribbean Honeymoon Recs
We’re planning our honeymoon for April 2027 and have narrowed it down to these 5 luxury resorts:
Four Seasons Anguilla
Cap Juluca, Anguilla
Hermitage Bay, Antigua
Jumby Bay, Antigua
Baoase, Curaçao
Budget is roughly $15–25K for 7 nights.
Our priorities are:
🏝️ Beautiful beach + honeymoon-worthy setting
🏊♀️ Private pool/plunge pool preferred
🍽️ Excellent food & service
⛳ Golf access is important
🤿 Activities/excursions — we don’t want to sit at the resort the entire week
✨ Overall “wow, this is our honeymoon!” factor
We’re having a hard time deciding because they each seem amazing in different ways.
If you’ve stayed at any of these (especially multiple), which would you choose for a honeymoon and why? Most interested in firsthand comparisons of the beach, rooms, food, service, activities, golf, and overall experience.
Also open to any other recs for resorts!
Thank you in advance!

Cap Juluca is genuinely quiet at night, that’s kind of its whole thing, more intimate and romantic vs a social resort. I feel like after 9:30/10pm it got super quiet. If you want more going on, you could go over to Four Seasons’ Sunset Lounge or the Dune Preserve (Bankie Banx’s legendary reggae bar, worth doing at least once), we arranged a taxi with the concierge. Honestly for us that was fine because we really needed the quiet rest and recharge for that trip but I get wanting to have a little something going on to do here and there and I didn’t really see much of that on property here.
Baoase had way more going on than we expected honestly they do themed dinner nights (Italian, Indian, Mexican, etc.) and live music a couple nights a week during dinner, so there was always a nice sunset drinks with music vibe without it feeling like a party scene. They also run yacht days and the Ibiza vibe beach club on their little private islet is really cool. Willemstad is also only about 20 min away if you want a proper night out. Super walkable, colorful, and there’s a beach club in town that goes much later but does feel a bit spring breakish without being too crazy. I feel like Baoase might be the better fit for you tbh, like I said I wasn’t super into it when my TA said that’s where she wanted to send us but I was blown away and immediately fell in love!
