(Seychelles News Agency) - After the glitz and glamour of a Hollywood-style wedding in Venice, Italy, George Clooney had another fairytale experience up his sleeve for his new bride, as celebrity news site X17Online reported on Friday that the couple is honeymooning in the Seychelles.

The 53-year-old American actor married Lebanese-British human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin last Saturday in a star-studded bash, with guests including Matt Damon, Bono, Bill Murray and Cindy Crawford sharing in their special day.

The newlyweds are believed to be honeymooning on the exclusive private island resort of North Island, which is accessible only by helicopter and recently ranked as the most expensive hotel in the world, at an average cost of around $6,700 per night.

SNA could not independently confirm this information.

The resort famously played host to Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge after their wedding in May 2011 and has since seen a string of celebrity guests, including Bill Gates, Salma Hayek, Julia Roberts, Janet Jackson, Pierce Brosnan, Richard Branson, Hugh Grant, David and Victoria Beckham, Madonna, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and the most recent honeymooner, American actress Gabrielle Union.

It is thought that Clooney and Alamuddin are honeymooning there on the personal recommendation of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
