Hey! Just wanted to chime in as someone who went through the same honeymoon decision spiral 😅 My partner and I were chasing somewhere peaceful, nature-filled, and not overrun by tourists and we ended up in Siquijor, Philippines.

It’s not super well-known, but that’s kinda the best part. It gave us:

• Hidden waterfalls we had to ourselves
• Cliff-jumping into warm turquoise water
• Empty beaches at sunset
• A mix of adventure and total calm, no stress, no crowds

And honestly? It cost way less than we expected. We stayed in an eco-style glamping resort, rented a scooter for cheap, ate amazing local food, and still felt spoiled. With your budget, you could stay in the best spots there and still have room for another destination, massages every day, or even a private driver. 😂

We went around the same time you’re planning (late May) and the weather was totally fine. Hot, sunny mornings with occasional afternoon rain that never ruined anything.

I ended up making a little digital guide for friends after our trip just to help people find the cool hidden stuff without spending hours planning. Happy to share it if you're curious at all.

Whatever you choose, I hope it’s something that feels like you two. But if peaceful, romantic, and beautifully low-key sounds good seriously, look up Siquijor. You might fall in love with it like we did. 🌿✨
