When you mention luxury holidays in Mauritius it conjures up the exotic yet un-commercialized side of long haul travel to exotic destinations. Where Mauritius benefits over the likes of the more remote Seychelles or the Maldives, is that there is actually an awful lot more to the island than just wandering along desolate beaches.

The island is a paradise for honeymooners, and many discrete weddings are arranged along the palm fringed islands beaches, with the Indian Ocean gently lapping the golden sands in the background. If you are looking for the top 5 romantic things to do on holiday, why not book a trip to Mauritius with your loved one ... what a great Valentines or birthday surprise!

Number one has to be walking along the golden beaches while the sun sets. The hotels on the west of the island benefit from stunning uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean. In the north, the Royal Palm Hotel is a Small Leading Hotel of the World, and certainly one of the most discerning hotels on the island. The exquisite suites, all overlook the ocean, and have large terraces and balconies. The beach itself is made of smooth pale golden sand, and you are ensured privacy. Le Mauricia and Le Canonnier are also in the north of the island, and offer all inclusive accommodation which is excellent value. Le Canonnier has a stunning location on the Point aux Canonnier, while Le Mauricia overlooks the vibrant Grand Baie. In my opinion the most romantic beach in Mauritius is at the idyllic Trou Aux Biches Hotel, located between Grande Baie in the North, and Port Louis. The sand is exquisite and the waves crash onto the coral reef in the distance, leaving you free to amble along the beach with the ocean gently lapping at your feet. The hotel is located in the tropical gardens with rooms scattered in Mauritian Village style accommodation leaving the big blocks of accommodation to the other hotels.

Secondly a Romantic candle-lit dinner for two is a speciality of Mauritius. La Ravanne Restaurant located between Paradis and Dinarobin hotels in the south west of the island is a real Mauritian treat, with your arrival from Paradis by boat, the hotels are beautifully illuminated by candlelight and on arrival you are greeted by a saga band dancing around a beach side fire. For a 'feet in the sand' dining experience, then a meal at L'Espandon at Trou Aux Biches is a must, with fresh seafood specialties. Your table is very relaxed with picnic style benches with parasols to keep off the midday sun.

Thirdly why not enjoy an evening stroll around a beautifully lit hotel? The Shandrani is located in the south east of the island, and has a very spacious situation, with three beaches surrounding tropical gardens, a golf course, bedrooms and suites, a spa and a number of restaurants. Much of the hotel is illuminated in candlelight and soft lighting in the evening, inducing one of the most romantic atmospheres you will ever encounter. No doubt during your stay you will have the special treat when they decorate the hotel in the Hindu style with oil lanterns around the fountains and swimming pools, their gentle light reflecting and flickering in to the night sky.

Fourthly and nearly finally, spend the afternoon in one of the amazing spas. Dinarobin has a Clarins spa (to be frank the afternoon may not be enough!), with a gorgeous pool, with sun loungers around it. You will see many a guest flaked out in their luxurious towelling robes after their hard 'work out' in the sauna. You really should pre book some treatments, the range is extensive with something for everyone. The relaxation is simply a superb way to start off a holiday, and help you to forget about life at home.

Finally why not sit quietly on your terrace or balcony enjoying a sundowner drink as the sun sets in the evening. Each of the rooms and suites in any of the Beachcomber hotels has its own private terrace or balcony. The Royal Palm and Dinarobin hotels only have spacious suites, and the balconies and terraces provide extra space, comfort and privacy as you would expect from 5 star luxury holidays in Mauritius. For the ultimate in privacy book to have your dinner served on your balcony where a butler will come and serve your carefully selected meal, wine and discreetly slip away allowing you to simply enjoy each other's company in one of the most romantic places in the world.

Australia is a huge country, almost as large as the contiguous United States, and one of the most important tips for any traveler would be to give themselves enough time to really see the country. Most international visitors fly into Sydney, the country's largest city, but the rest of this vast country, which also happens to be a continent, is well worth visiting too.

One of the biggest challenges is negotiating the huge distances; the distance from Perth on the west coast to Brisbane on the east coast is almost 2500 miles. The easiest way to travel is to fly. QANTAS serves the major cities as well as smaller places with intriguing names, Wollongong, Lord Howe Island and Doomadgee.

If you plan to see as much of the country as possible, consider buying one of the many air passes available which allow you to save money by taking a certain number of flights within a specific time period. The cost depends on the itinerary. A ticket from Perth to Cairns to Alice Springs and Melbourne might cost around $1200. You generally need to purchase these tickets outside Australia, and often in conjunction with your plane ticket to and from Australia.

If you have the time, driving is an excellent way to see the country, and to appreciate the sheer size. Car rental is easy and convenient, you will need a valid driver's license to rent a car and you need to have it with you while driving. Many travelers even find it more economical to purchase a car and then sell it before returning home. Australian drivers are polite, and won't tolerate drunk-driving, driving without a seat belt or talking on a cell phone while driving.

Roads are generally good in Australia, although some roads in the Outback are unpaved (or unsealed, as they are known) and can only be driven safely in a four wheel drive vehicle. If you are driving in the more remote parts of Australia, be alert for animals and "road trains", huge tractor-trailers up to fifty yards long. Never venture into the Outback without extra water and fuel, spare tires, a rope and perhaps a satellite phone. And don't forget, they drive on the left.

There is also a surprisingly good rail and bus network in Australia, there are several long distance bus companies, although Greyhound Pioneer Australia covers the entire country. Also, if you have the time, the train journey from Perth to Sydney is considered one of the world's most spectacular; it also boasts one of the world's longest straight stretches of railroad track.

If you don't want to fly or drive, consider an escorted tour. These can vary greatly in the quality of accommodation, the length of the trip and exactly what you will see. Most tours take in the popular destinations, Sydney and the surrounding Blue Mountains, the Gold Coast, Uluru, (Ayers Rock) and the Great Barrier Reef. Darwin makes a good base for exploring the tropical north of the country and Alice Springs is convenient for exploring the Outback.

Many people visit Australia to experience native Aborigine culture. If you plan to travel on Aboriginal land, other than on a designated road, you will first need to obtain a permit from the Land Council in that state. There are plenty of places throughout the country to see Aborigines and purchase their art and crafts, but you are also expected to show respect for their sacred sights.

The unit of currency in Australia is the dollar; divided into 100 cents. At the time of this writing, Australia is affordable to American and European visitors, due to the rather favorable exchange rate. ATMs can be found in all the larger towns and the major tourist areas, although they are often hard to find in the Outback.

Credit cards, particularly Visa and MasterCard, are widely accepted. Tipping is not as common as in the US, although it's appreciated. An inexpensive hotel room might cost somewhere between $50 and $80; a more luxurious hotel room may cost in the range of $260 to $300. Hostels and campgrounds are also widely available, reasonably priced and popular with families and backpackers.

The internet has meant that trip planning and keeping in touch has become easier. Australia is no exception. Internet access is widely available, even in the remotest Outback settlements. Australians use 240 volts AC, so you will need to take an adaptor for electrical appliances.

One of the easiest aspects about traveling through Australia is that the language is familiar. Although, you may come across such strange things as thongies, billabongs, sheilas and, as Australians are well known for their hospitality, possibly an invitation to a shrimp on the barbie.
