Sounds great. Is there much to do during the day, apart from pool/beach?
 
Dubai

Hi Slash,
it is particularily well suited to sun worshippers alright. However, desert safaris are fantastic, the shops were great, especially the gold market (top up the visa!!). There's fabulous golf courses. There's Wadi bashing (driving jeeps usually through dry river beds, mountains etc.) And there's the night life/clubs/pubs...
 
Re: Honeymoon

We went to the Maldives there last October, talk about heaven, cost us about 5k for all inclusive, serious food, R&R and diving, heaven on earth.
If you saw the show there last Tuesday week on RTE they were there.
Highly recommend.
 
I would recommend to stay away from the Dominican Republic. It's a very popular honeymoon destination but it's not a great place. The Americans consider it the armpit of the Caribeaan and I could see why. Visitors stay in gated communities and see nothing of the 'real' country. Plus the capital, Santa Domingo, is a seriously dodgy city. Nothing much to do in the resorts either. I know you'll be on your honeymoon (!) but after a fortnight of sitting on a beach I'm betting you'll be stir crazy and ready for a divorce.
Try Corsica. Cheap, beautiful countryside and weather and lots to do and see.
