Twelve nights is the golden window for a honeymoon in São Tomé and Príncipe. It allows you to leave the rest of the world behind and sink into the unhurried local rhythm of leve-leve, without ever having to rush a check-out or watch the clock.
You begin on São Tomé with a gentle, oceanfront soft landing at Omali, spending four nights unwinding by the pool, strolling along the bay at sunset, and dining on fresh Atlantic seafood.
Then you fly across the Gulf of Guinea to Príncipe, a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve of lost-world rainforests and empty beaches. You spend your first two nights in the cool, elevated breeze of Roça Belo Monte, watching the ocean from a historic plantation suite high above the golden curve of Praia Banana. From there, you move down to the sand for five nights in a standalone beachfront bungalow at Bom Bom, where wooden walkways lead across the water to an offshore islet and days revolve around swimming, barefoot beach lunches, and absolute privacy. You finish with one last relaxing night back at Omali before your journey home.
Four unhurried chapters, from the capital's bay to a bungalow above the sand on Príncipe.
Four nights in a Premier Room at Omali, set in quiet tropical gardens right on Ana Chaves Bay. Relax after your flight, explore the colonial capital, and enjoy four included dinners of fresh local fish and Santomean cuisine on the garden terrace.
A 35-minute domestic flight brings you to Príncipe. Two nights in an expansive historical Suite at Roça Belo Monte, surrounded by tropical forest on the bluffs above Banana Beach. Two candlelit plantation dinners included.
Five nights in a standalone Beach Front Bungalow at Bom Bom. Wake up to ocean breezes and the sound of waves, walk across the wooden footbridge over the sea to the islet bar for evening drinks, and enjoy five days with no schedule to keep.
Fly back to São Tomé for a final night at Omali. A stress-free buffer to ensure you connect effortlessly to your international departure.
A honeymoon is spent in the room as much as on the sand, so here is every room type at the three properties, with the room booked for you marked on each carousel.
4 Nights on Arrival + 1 Final Night · Premier Room
Set just five minutes from the airport on the quiet waters of Praia Lagarto, Omali is the ideal place to begin and end your journey. With just 30 rooms, it combines boutique privacy with attentive service. Your Premier Room opens onto a private veranda overlooking the gardens, while the open-air restaurant serves Atlantic seafood caught by local fishermen right off the bay. Four dinners for two are included during your arrival stay.

2 Nights · Historic Suite
Perched high on the bluffs of northeast Príncipe, this restored 19th-century cocoa manor is pure colonial romance. Vast high-ceilinged suites feature polished timber floors, antique furnishings, and wide verandas looking out through ancient trees to the sea. Below the estate, a stone pathway winds through the forest down to Praia Banana, giving you private access to the island's most iconic sheltered beach. Two candlelit plantation dinners for two are included.

5 Nights · Beach Front Bungalow
Bom Bom sits on a private headland between two sweeping arcs of deserted sand. Your thatched-roof wooden bungalow stands directly above the beach, offering complete privacy and immediate ocean access. By day, swim in calm, crystalline water or explore the rainforest; as the sun dips, stroll the wooden footbridge stretching over the waves to the islet restaurant for cold drinks and grilled fish over the water. Stays are on a bed and breakfast basis, giving you the freedom to dine when and where you like.

Because this trip is built specifically for newly married couples, your stay includes thoughtful touches across the properties:
Available all year round for couples travelling within six months of marriage; proof of marriage required at confirmation.
Príncipe has fewer than 10,000 residents and no mass tourism. You will spend days on postcard-perfect beaches where yours are the only footprints in the sand.
Dividing twelve nights between just three bases means you unpack your bags, settle in, and truly decompress together.
From the lively, historic culture and volcanic peaks of São Tomé to the untouched UNESCO biosphere reserve of Príncipe, you experience the complete character of the archipelago.
Because we are based on the island, we cut out the massive multi-layered agency margins charged by UK travel operators. You get luxury roça suites and beachfront bungalows at direct rates.
Prices are based on two guests sharing, with zero hidden booking fees.
