Ethiopia is one of the most interesting countries in the whole world. For example, coffee originated from Ethiopia, it is one of two African countries that were never colonized, and it is home to a lot of beautiful and romantic destinations that are perfect for a romantic getaway for a newlywed couple. 

While these destinations are not as popular as the better-known locations like Maldives and BoraBora, it doesn’t mean that they are any less beautiful or romantic. Some excellent honeymoon destinations in Ethiopia include:

 

Limalimo Lodge

If you are a lover of nature, then Limalimo lodge would be the perfect place for you. It is perched atop a cliff in National Park, Ethiopia, and boasts a beautiful view that you'd be hard-pressed to find anywhere else in the world.

It only has a dozen rooms which makes it quite an exclusive resort, and with the rooms being separate from one another, you are guaranteed your privacy. 

 

Kuriftu Resort and Spa

This is located in Bahir Dar and is set at the edge of a lake, which affords beautiful scenery that is the perfect backdrop for your pictures. Also, there is a wide variety of exotic birds that flock to the resort, so you can have fun birdwatching.

As a bonus, you also get a complimentary massage at the spa thrown in…free of charge. 

 

Emerald Resort, Arba Minch

This breathtaking resort is set up on a hilltop overlooking two lakes, and this means that you are always greeted with a stunning sight every single time. 

You can take walks by the nearby lakes, go on boat trips, or just visit the nearby villages to take in the cultural richness of Ethiopia. This resort is also pet friendly which ensures that you can bring your furry little friend with you on your honeymoon. 

At the emerald resort, you get to absorb some Ethiopian culture while having a nice time with your spouse. 

 

Lewi Resort and Spa

At this resort, you get a beautifully decorated room with a marvellous view of the lake. There is a restaurant where you can get tasty meals, and also a spa where you can go to pamper yourself after a long day of honeymooning. You can also use the sauna that the resort provides. 

Ethiopia offers an undeniably wonderful experience on your honeymoon and you should take advantage of the affordable experience the country offers.
