As the sky turned gold and a giraffe silhouetted the horizon, we clinked glasses, confident we had chosen the perfect honeymoon.
Although we were looking for white sands and turquoise seas, we also wanted adventure and for us the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius and an African safari ticked all the right boxes.
Our resort, Paradise Cove, had romance in abundance with Balinese-style decor and understated elegance. Our suite overlooked the resort’s private beach and peninsula and it wasn’t long before drinking champagne on the balcony overlooking the moonlit cove became a nightly routine.
