COVID has changed the way we all travel, and those with their weddings and honeymoons planned have especially been hit hard, having to cancel, postpone or reschedule a milestone in their lives on a smaller scale. But with international travel opening up, things might change for the better than the current situation, although it might take a while for things to get back to how it all was during pre-COVID times.

Resort honeymoons might be the next best option for those who want to undertake travel for leisure in the near future. Resort honeymoons basically mean opting to honeymoon in a place where you spend time within the confines of the resort instead of stepping around town, indulging in activities and experiences the resorts have to offer! So, where can you pick such resorts? Well, we have one destination in mind - Thailand! 

The country, which is a short flight away from India is an ideal honeymoon destination, which has romantic resorts aplenty, and a lot of them are taking extra precautions to take enough measures in this post COVID era to entertain guests while ensuring their safety. So, we've rounded up some amazing, romantic resorts with everything under their roof in four fabulous locations in Thailand- Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi and Samui. These four beach destinations, paired up with the most romantic resorts there, are the best options to consider for a honeymoon in near future!
