From honeymoons to anniversaries to just because–romantic getaways are so much fun for couples looking to grow closer and celebrate their love and relationship! At Travel Modern, a travel agency in Mountain Brook, we know a thing or two about romantic getaways and want to help you plan yours. We’ll help you plan the perfect trip without the stress so that your trip is an amazing one.

Romantic Getaways Around The World

Regardless of what your definition of romance is, we’ll make sure you have a memorable time. There are tons of getaway options that cater to couples, and we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite places. If you don’t find what you’re looking for in this post, then don’t hesitate to reach out so that we can find a destination that is perfect for you and your significant other.

Botswana, Africa

Africa is an underrated romantic destination. If your idea of romance is getting to see all the wonders that a safari provides, then you should definitely consider Botswana. This is an exclusive spot for safaris with amazing opportunities to spot wildlife while you’re out and about. There are also beautiful and intimate lodges. We think Jack’s Camp is the perfect romantic camp in an oasis of the Kalahari Desert. Xigera Safari Lodge is also a great choice if you want a sustainable, off-grid but more modern choice. We’ll make sure you get all of our special perks and fall in love with Africa like we did!

Antigua

For a truly enchanting escape, consider Antigua, a Caribbean gem renowned for its stunning beaches and luxurious resorts. Among its treasures is Jumby Bay resort, nestled on a private island paradise. With pristine white sands and azure waters, Jumby Bay offers unparalleled seclusion and romance for couples seeking an intimate retreat.

Iceland

If you’re a couple that wants to experience a new country in the day and snuggle up at night, then explore Iceland. Iceland has some amazing landscapes that will inspire awe in the two of you. If you go in winter, then there’s nothing more romantic than snuggling up by the fire and watching the Northern Lights waltzing across the normally dark skies. We recommend renting a car and traveling the Ring Road route. This 828-mile road will take you along the country’s entire coastal region. You’ll see glaciers, geysers, and black sand beaches making this the trip of a lifetime for couples.

We’ll help you find the best lodges and cabins to book for your road trip. One we would love for you to try and fit in is The Retreat at the Blue Lagoon. This luxurious spa hotel offers unparalleled relaxation amid Iceland’s stunning natural landscapes, providing couples with an unforgettable escape into tranquility. Another is Eleven Deplar Farm. This off-grid hotel will give you warm comfort in the cold weather and allow you two to relax in quiet luxury. 

French Polynesia

If you’re really wanting an opportunity to run away from all your troubles and just focus on each other, then you’ll love French Polynesia. On the Tetiaroa atoll, only accessible by a six-seater plane, you’ll find true seclusion at The Brando. White beaches, pristine lagoon, daily spa treatments, champagne, and French Chef Guy Martin’s Michelin-grade feasts are yours to explore and enjoy together. Your thatched dwelling comes with its own strip of sand, infinity pool, and outdoor tub. You’ll truly have escaped to paradise and can enjoy the intimacy that only a scarcely populated place can provide. There are only 35 villas on the entire island so you shouldn’t run into too many people. We’re positive you’ll grow closer with this romantically intimate getaway.

Portofino, Italy

For a blend of romance and sophistication, consider Portofino, a picturesque coastal town along the Italian Riviera. Nestled amidst lush hills overlooking the Ligurian Sea, Portofino captivates with its pastel-colored buildings and charming harbor. Enhance your romantic escape with a stay at the Belmond Splendido, an iconic luxury hotel offering breathtaking views and world-class amenities, ensuring an unforgettable experience for you and your loved one.
