The last two years has seen unprecedented practices of marriage and honeymoons. Wedding ceremonies in the time of Covid has seen smaller ceremonies, fewer guests and video live streaming for those unable to attend. As for honeymoons, the notion of romantic escapes to pristine beaches and crystal clear waters had pretty much grinded to a halt with so many countries closing off their borders.

Well, not anymore.

With Malaysia permitting Malaysians to travel internationally once more, newlyweds and couples can once again look at reliving their honeymoon escapes. To kick off the planning, here are five destinations that are just primed for your dream holiday with your significant other without the need of quarantine upon arrival.

Maldives

Should it come as no surprise that we're starting off the list with this paradise on earth? Maldives was one of the first few countries to open its doors in 2020 with no quarantine for travellers upon arrival. Arguably one of the most beautiful tropical countries in the world, honeymooning in the Maldives checks every box a beach-loving couple looking for the ultimate in luxury accommodations and relaxation could want.

The Centara Resorts in Maldives are just perfect for that isolated getaway for the romantic couple such as this 4D3N stay at Centara Grand Maldives. Surrounded by the blue ocean of the South Ari Atoll, and distinctive with its timbered walkways and colonial-style buildings, Centara Grand Island Resort & Spa Maldives is a barefoot paradise with a palm-fringed beach and shimmering lagoon that offers the perfect island holiday for everyone.

Switzerland
