5 of the Most Romantic Places

Ah, l’amour!!!

February is the month of love ❤️… and I’ve chosen five of some of the most romantic places on Earth for you!

Paris, France

OF COURSE Paris is on the list!

The City of Lights and Love always makes the list of one of the most romantic places on Earth!  And it’s not a surprise…

Thanks to Paris’ beautiful and unique architecture such as the Basilica Sacré Coeur, the Arc de Triomphe, the Eiffel Tower all lit up at night, Notre Dame…

And the ART!  There are so many museums… of course there’s the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, Musée de l’Orangerie, Musée Rodin… well, just too many museums to list here!

And the FOOD!  And the WINE!  Sitting at a sidewalk café, sipping coffee, and savoring a freshly made croissant… or dining in an intimate booth where the lit up Eiffel Tower can be seen through the restaurant window, sharing a bottle of wine and enjoying  cassoulet, or maybe even boeuf Bourguignon…

These are just some of the reasons why Paris is on the list as one of the most romantic places in the world!

Venice, Italy

Venice is known as one of the most romantic cities in the world and is a very popular honeymoon destination.

Venice is just dripping with romance!  The city is built on islands, so wonderful canals wind their way between buildings… and there are no cars in the tourist area, so walking hand-in-hand at twilight along the canal can be very intimate.

Of course, you must ride in a gondola!  Floating down the canal, feeling the gentle rocking motion of the gondola, embracing each other as you both lean in for a kiss… 

Walking together and touring the Doge’s Palace and St. Mark’s Square,  enjoying a quiet moment on the Bridge of Sighs, sampling cicchetti (small snacks) with an extraordinary glass of wine…

Venice just radiates an old world charm- a charm best experienced together.

These are just some of the reasons why Venice is on the list as one of the most romantic places in the world!

Santorini, Greece

Santorini is one of the most beautiful Greek islands… in addition to being one of the most popular honeymoon spots!

The white houses sitting on the cliff sparkle in the sun… the blue domed roofs echo the blue of the Aegean Sea… sunsets paint the sky in pink, orange, and gold… and can best be viewed from the town of Oia...

Beautiful beaches abound!  Some that should be mentioned are Red Beach, White Beach, and Kamari Beach… each beach special and romantic in its own right...

And being an island, the seafood is not to be missed!  Freshly-caught seafood is paired with other fresh ingredients… when you bite, each flavor bursting in your mouth but compliment each other so well that nothing matters but the next bite...

And of course, the scenery… Instagramable moments are around every corner…

These are just some of the reasons why Santorini is on the list as one of the most romantic places in the world!

Krabi, Thailand

Krabi has over 200 islands and is known for its white sand beaches, miles of turquoise water, green lush jungles, and plenty of amazing dining and shopping!

For the adventurous couple, kayak among the tall limestone islands that jut out of the sea bed…. snorkel in the crystal clear waters… take a tour through the islands on a jet boat, hike to The Emerald Pool to bathe in the natural mineral pool, soak in the therapeutic volcanic mineral springs of Klong Tom Hot Springs…

Not so adventurous?   Enjoy a couple’s spa treatment where you can relax in a sauna or hot tub… get a couple’s massage to work out the kinks in your muscles… maybe dine on the beach at The Grotto at Rayavadee Resort (must be a guest of the resort)… or maybe dine on top of a hill at The Hilltop Ao Nang which offers spectacular views of Ao Nang Beach…

These are just some of the reasons why Krabi is on the list as one of the most romantic places in the world!

The Maldives

The Maldives is a nation of island consisting of 26 atolls… in fact, there are 1,192 islands covering over 12,000 square miles in the Indian Ocean.

As this is an island nation, gorgeous white sand beaches can be found everywhere!  Just picture it in your mind… overwater bungalows sitting above the striking blue water… soft, alabaster white sand beaches a short walk away with amazing sunsets as the sun starts to dip below the horizon!  No wonder why the Maldives is so popular with honeymooners!

Looking for something a little different?  Maybe an UNDERWATER hotel?  That’s right!  Enjoy your own private “aquarium” with a room under the surface of the water!

These are just some of the reasons why The Maldives is on the list as one of the most romantic places in the world!

 

Of course, there are so many places in the world that is romantic!  Where do you like to go for romance?
