If you and your significant other have been itching to pack your bags and go on a well-deserved vacation together for the past two and a half years, you are not alone. Holiday resorts and tourist havens will most definitely see swarms of people pouring in this year in light of relaxed Covid-19 mitigation measures.

Perhaps you and your beau are looking to go somewhere extra special this year, like a tropical Greek island, a wine resort in Portugal, or a misty town in the Scottish isles? Whatever your plans are, this list might just help you choose your next perfect getaway.

Greece

Greek islands are famous for their beautiful and peaceful beaches, historical buildings, plenty of restaurants offering a lovely evening meal, and numerous stunning vistas. True enough, Greece makes for a spectacular holiday destination for couples, honeymooners, and those who simply want to get away from their everyday routines.

If you can’t choose between the many breathtaking locations in Greece, our recommendation would be Santorini, one of the world’s most romantic vacation resorts. Santorini is home to hundreds of amazing views and a spectacular landscape created by volcanic activity. Adventure lovers will enjoy lengthy hiking routes, quad rides, and diving options, while foodies will appreciate sampling all of the delicious locally prepared cuisine.

Portugal

Whether you’re looking to propose, honeymoon, or simply go on an unforgettable trip together with your partner, there is definitely a spot in Portugal that could become your piece of paradise on earth. 

The majestic Douro Valley is an ideal backdrop for romance, especially if you choose to stay on a charming wine estate where you can take a stroll through the vineyards or relax during a delicious picnic. After a private wine tasting, you can add to the intimacy with a sunset boat ride along the Douro River, followed by a gourmet meal on board.

If you and your partner prefer to stay in a hotel when traveling abroad, Portugal has plenty of luxurious accommodation to offer which you can easily find thanks to the great work of their hotel marketing campaigns.

Queensland

If you’re looking for something adventurous, secluded and romantic, Queensland has lots of charming activities to offer loved-up couples. Apart from being one of the most popular wedding and honeymoon locations in the world, Queensland is known for its long stretches of sunny beaches and stunning eco resorts. 

A dream-like destination awaits you and your favorite person in the heart of Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. Noosa is brimming with natural beauty, unique experiences, and local residents who are dedicated to keeping this beautiful corner of the globe pristine and green. You can also find a great deal of luxury hotels in Noosa for an extra opulent romantic getaway.

The Caribbean

The Caribbean islands are fantastic for couples searching for a romantic retreat filled with gorgeous white beaches, swaying palm trees, and lots of luxurious accommodation to choose from. 

A popular choice among couple holiday-goers is Grenada. Grenada’s environmentally friendly tourism regulations ensure that these islands are a veritable lovers’ paradise, with magnificent romantic sites ranging from sandy beaches to breathtaking hiking vistas and everything in between.

For an incredibly memorable vacation, you can simply book a cruise on the Oasis of the Seas and tour the Caribbean in its entirety.

Japan

If you and your partner find that many of the world’s most renowned romantic hotspots are now a little cliché, Japan could be your cool getaway alternative. 

Japan makes it easy for couples to fall in love with each other all over again, with its fantasy-like temples, shrines, snowy mountains, gorgeous cherry blossom trees, as well as glitzy neon cities where possibilities seem endless. 

Visit Tokyo and Osaka for an urban holiday experience, or venture out into the Japanese countryside for a real taste of traditional Japanese culture. The country’s outstanding domestic train network will exceed all your expectations when it comes to traveling from one side of the nation to the other in search of the most romantic locations.

United Kingdom

The United Kingdom might not seem like the most obvious choice for your next romantic getaway, but you would be pleasantly surprised by its abundance of romantic hideaways. From weekends spent on the lovely coast to days spent wandering through gorgeous woodlands, it truly is the ideal location for lovers wishing to take their relationship to the next level by challenging themselves on an active vacation. 

Still don’t think that romance abounds in the UK? Just wait until you get to enjoy a misty morning on a heathery moor, a starry night from stargazing friendly accommodation, a sunset from atop a medieval castle, or a Scottish fairy glen. Plus, there’s nothing more romantic than exploring castles in practically every part of the United Kingdom!

Plan Your Romantic Getaway

When organizing the perfect trip for you and your loved one, you can also consider something closer to your home. You don’t have to travel across the world to experience paradise on earth. But if you’d really want to get on that great island in another country you can check out the top cheap flights online so you can save more for experiences.

Explore lovely destinations you will both enjoy, such as Miller Beach in Indiana, San Juan islands in Washington, or Hawaii. Plan the perfect holiday in a luxury villa with access to a spa, massage rooms, and cocktails each day. Or opt for a tree house next to the beach with plenty of opportunities for adventures and outdoor activities.

The choice is yours – int the end, it’s the time we spend together that counts.
