Why it's perfect: A good cruise caters to you — all the food, drinks, and entertainment are perfectly planned and easy to enjoy! You and your spouse can spend your time focusing on each other and let the cruise directors handle the details.

5. Consider a spa retreat.

Why it's perfect: When you're newlyweds, you might be looking for adventure over relaxation. For a honeymoon revisited, however, pampering reigns supreme! A spa retreat is the perfect place for you two to treat yourselves.

6. Stay in a castle.

Why it's perfect: You deserve to live like royalty, and now is your time to do it! Lots of places have castles you can stay in, and it provides a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Why it's perfect: Paying upfront helps make sure the vacation's focus is on you and your partner — which is the whole point!

8. Rock out at a theme park.

Why it's perfect: Theme parks are 100% different when you go without kids. Getting the opportunity to act like kids is a welcome change of pace.

9. Dodge the big cities.

Why it's perfect: A small town is like a treasure chest — without the maps and guides of a big city, you're left to find that perfect cafe or amazing local boutique on your own. And the pace is slow and relaxing, so you and your beloved can have the best time of your lives with a nice bottle of wine and, let's say, a gorgeous Tuscan sunset!

10. And in a pinch, try a staycation!

Why it's perfect: Any chance to revel in your relationship should be embraced! Craft the perfect week full of your favorite things — favorite movies, favorite dinners, favorite songs — and celebrate the things you love, together.
