Honeymoon locale: Modern Paradise

I was doing some research for our upcoming vacation when I randomly stumbled across The Hix Island House. "A luxurious retreat amidst rustic Zen-like architectural elegance..." says their website. At first glance, this seems like a huge understatement! This natural paradise, designed by modern eco-friendly architect John Hix, was built directly into the hillside of Viequez, an island just east of Puerto Rico. With fantastic views of the Caribbean below, this hotel has all of the ingredients to make a dream wedding/honeymoon come true!

The resort houses 13 lofts within 4 separate buildings. All with extremely modern architecture, open-air terraces and breathtaking views. I'd try to describe more, but honestly I don't know how. Visit website to check out all the pics.

As for destination weddings, the Hix House just opened a new Grand House, "La Casona." The space perfectly fits into to the overall feel of the hotel. It has its own pool and a large open air courtyard, perfect for a small wedding. Again, amazingly beautiful, and very difficult to describe. The hotel website has a nice selection of pictures, also there are some others on John Hix' personal site.

Pricing for La Casona isn't readily available on their website, but looking at their regular rates for the lofts, especially during the off season, this place is very affordable. If you decide to book it, please let blueshoe help you plan your dream wedding, we are dying to check this place out in person ;)

That's all for now, More hidden treasures to come!
