Honeymoon in Phuket & Phi Phi, Thailand
Limestone cliffs, $20 massages, and resort luxury at half the Caribbean price.
Why Phuket & Phi Phi, Thailand works as a honeymoon
Phuket as a base + boat days to Phi Phi and James Bond Island = the budget-luxury honeymoon. $300/night gets a beachfront pool villa that would be $1,200 in Hawaii.
