We, once again, enjoyed dinner at the resort at The Dining Room on the island.
Since it was slightly warmer last night than it was on Sunday evening, we opted to enjoy our meal at the water’s edge among tiki torches. 
We both agreed that our dinner last night was the most romantic meal we’ve ever enjoyed. We felt like we were the only two people on the whole island.
Our meal, like the night before, was exquisite. As Ryan would say we “balled out!” 😉 
We began by sharing two jumbo shrimp and two snow crab claws.
They came with the most unbelievable coconut honey mustard for dipping. I wish I was lying when I say I actually ate the remaining mustard with my fork, but it really was that good.
Ryan and I then shared a bowl of lobster bisque with ginger oil which was also pretty tasty.
For our entrees we split lobster risotto and a mussel and shrimp dish that came in the most delicious broth. 
Both dishes were winners. If I could go back, I would’ve asked for another piece of bread to soak up the remaining broth from the mussels and shrimp dish. So darn tasty!
For dessert we selected the Kaluha chocolate cake.
It was tasty but didn’t hold a candle to the key lime pie from the night before.
After dinner, we headed back to our bungalow to grab the big, fluffy robes to keep us warm as we headed out to the end of a private dock.
Though the water is crystal clear and the bungalows at Little Palm Island are truly unbelievable, I think the thing I will remember most is the sky at night on the island.
Both Ryan and I were mesmerized by the amount of brilliant stars in the sky. It was truly breathtaking.
We sat under the stars for a while and scoped out the array of fish that seemed to frolic to the brilliant fish light under the dock. The highlight was the giant tarpon that found its way under the light! That baby was BIG.
Goodbye, Little Palm
Ryan and I woke up bright and early this morning and hit the gym on the island before heading out to the beach to take in some sun before it was time to check out. 
The beach and pool at Little Palm Island were secluded, beautiful and quiet. We couldn’t help but feel completely relaxed.
We arranged to head back to the mainland (and reality) around noon.
I started to feel a little sad as Ryan and I walked to the end of the dock to board the boat. 
We checked out and said our farewells, and as we hopped into Ryan’s car, I saw a little card they placed next to one of the cup holders that read “Don’t be sad that it’s over. Smile because it happened.”
I instantly smiled and my sadness about leaving such a wonderful place dissipated because I know the memories Ryan and I have from Little Palm Island will last a lifetime. It was truly an unforgettable experience.
Next Up
Though we were obviously sad to leave Little Palm Island, we were pretty excited to begin the next adventure on our honeymoon.
A 5.5-hour drive took us to our next spot. Any guesses where we are now? 😀

The cake looks amazing! Glad you’re enjoying yourself!!!!
Little Palm looks incredible! I miss warm sun and soft sand.
Could that blue sky be any blue-er? Gorgeous
That looks like such an amazing trip! I love the saying “don’t be sad because it’s over, smile because it happened!” Words to live by! 🙂
oh i know. i want it on a plaque in my house or something!
Lobster Bisque is amazing! 🙂
I am glad you had a great time!
That dinner just looks super romantic!
Looks like your having a great time!!! All the food looks incredible.
Port canaveral……are you taking a cruise?
sigh…honeymoons are the best! so glad you guys are having such a wonderful time 🙂
Everything seems so unbelievably perfect! I’m so happy for you guys <3 I just love LOVE and reading the story of you two is so inspiring! Enjoy the rest of your honey moon!
What a cool place! You guys are a super fit couple too 🙂
You’re honeymoon looks amazing. I absolutely love the keys!! I would guess that you and your adorable hubby are……heading to Disney World? 🙂
I’m guessing Port Canaveral! Have fun!!!
That message on the card is great! The perfect thing to say at that moment 🙂 Glad you are enjoying your honeymoon!
You will remember your honeymoon and how you fretted over it, but even more so how out of the bad, came good. The good thing about being with the one you love is that you can always have fun…no matter what. I could honestly have fun with my boyfriend sitting in a cardboard box 🙂
Are you guys heading to Sanibel next?
It seriously looks like heaven on earth there… I might have to talk to my fiance about going there for our honeymoon! 😉
I love blogs because not only do you get to discover cool recipes and products but you come across hidden little hideaway islands in Florida, too!
So gorgeous! It’s safe to say I’m jealous..as I’m sure all of us are 🙂
Little Palm looks gorgeous! It looks like you and Ryan had a great time.
It really looks and sounds gorgeous!
Can’t wait to see your next destination!
it looks like paradise! 🙂
Just remember you’d have never even had such a wonderful experience if your St. Lucia plans weren’t muddled. While that was a bummer, this is quite a consolation prize!
You guys are so cute! Glad you’re enjoying yourselves, you both deserve it so much! LPI looks gorgeous!! Have fun on your next lil’ honeymoon adventure, can’t wait to find out what it is! xxoo Mer
What a perfect 1st part to your honeymoon. You know, this honeymoon actually sounds better because it’s full of different places and the adventure never ends! 😉
Hhmmm 5.5 hour drive? I would guess Sanibel? whereever it is enjoy it!
This sounds so beautiful!! I feel like Little Palm was a wonderful place for a honeymoon- it seems so romantic. Safe travels to your next destination!
There is no reason for me to be emotional right now but… I am! I cant imagine what it feels like to be on your one and only honeymoon!
Wow, that dinner looked so incredibly romantic. It looks like you are having an amazing honeymoon. I am so glad that all of this worked out for you guys. You both deserve to be happy! I can’t wait to read what happens next! 🙂
That sounds so romantic–on your private dock, stargazing. It always amazing me when I’m out of the city how many stars there are.
Booo to the rude comment, completely unnecessary….glad you are having such a fabulous time, enjoy 😉
I’m not sure what part of my comment you found rude. Stargazing on a private dock is romantic… they’re on a honeymoon. I think that’s awesome.
Not sure how that might have offended Julie or anyone else…
Sorry Tracey….I didn’t mean your comment, I meant the one below yours….
Oh gotcha. Thanks–just was a bit confused!
You seem a sweet girl, but would you PLEASE, for the love of the English language, consult a thesaurus for an alternative verb to substitute for your much over-used ‘enjoy’ when describing any act of consumption?
Ditto for any alternative to the bland and facile ‘tasty’ ?
Much obliged.
It’s a blog not a book ……get over it
i’m open to adjective suggestions. 😀
i’m sure the first thing anyone cares about on their honeymoon is grammatical variation on their blog…bogus. ENJOY the yourselves and ignore whoever this poster was!
This is fun! I feel like I’m honemooning with you! (in a non-creepy way ;)).
Only 5.5 hours from Key West? I’m guessing Savannah??
Port Canaveral… for a cruise?! 🙂
It all looks so beautiful!
CRUISE! CRUISE! CRUISE! CRUISE!
That, or some spectacular all-inclusive resort. 😉
Glad you are having such an amazing time! 😀
(and boo to the comment above! I’m glad you are ENJOYING every last bit!)
Love your site – I am so happy to see that the honeymoon change of plans has worked out so well. My guess, based on 5.5 hours on Key West, is Vero Beach area resort.
You two little sexy love birds! Look at those beach bodies… 🙂 I’m so happy you’re ENJOYING your honeymoon! You deserve nothing but happiness and relaxation this week and in the years to come! XOXO Ash
CRUISE!!!!!!!!!! yay!
Aah I hope you are having a great time wherever you are!!
You two are so adorable — congrats again 🙂
Looks like you guys are having so much fun! I can’t believe how blue the sky was. Gorgeous. 🙂
