Getting away from it all on a romantic break with a spouse or partner is an excellent way of reminding yourself (and one another) how much you care for them, and it can really do wonders for your relationship, making it stronger and better than every before. It’s not always possible to spend time together at home; the pressures of work and caring for children, for example, can mean that you barely see one another.

Not only will you and your partner get more quality time to spend with one another when on a romantic getaway, but often when couples get a chance to escape the daily grind of life, many other exciting revelations, and surprises can happen or be brought up. 

For example, if you have not yet started a family, then this break from normality, and the time alone may be exactly what you and your partner needed so as to be able to discuss the next steps for the future of growing a family together. Not only will you have the time and space alone to talk and plan your future, but you will be able to focus on whether you are both in a financially and emotionally available state to take these next steps in life, with a clear and relaxed mind.

Something else that can happen when away on a romantic holiday is of course a proposal. Proposals are a big thing, so you may want to breach the topic and have a conversation with your partner first in a way that won’t ruin the surprise. It would be ideal if you could find a way of making sure you are both on the same page. By doing this early on you can even find out, and share specific details of what a dream proposal would look like and mean to each other. An idea would be to casually take a sneaky look at a lab grown diamonds catalog to find the perfect rock for an engagement ring.

Therefore, choosing the right romantic getaway and enjoying it as much as possible is essential. Spend some time working out what is going to be best for you, and then you can book it with confidence and, when the time comes, really have a fantastic time. Here are some ideas to get you started on your research.

A Villa in Spain

A Villa in Spain is an ideal way to have a holiday for two that is private and comfortable, as well as being something a little different. Whether you’re going away for a long weekend, a week, or perhaps even two, if you have a villa you can rest assured that you have your own space and will be totally alone. Plus, since the villas are all going to be self-catering, you can arrange for some amazing and romantic meals for two. Perhaps you’ll try to re-create some of the local cuisine, learning from the people you meet while you’re away. Or you might try something simple yet delicious that you know always goes down well.

Spain is an excellent choice for couples; it’s great for long walks along the beach or dips in the sea, and the scenery is beautiful. Watching the sunset from your villa in Spain will be like nothing you’ve seen before, and will make the entire experience even more incredible.

Go To The Theater

Going to the theater is fun, but it’s not a holiday or romantic getaway with a partner. Combine it with a stay in a hotel, and it could be though! There are areas in many major cities including London, New York, and Sydney amongst dozens of others that are renowned for their theatres, and, close by (sometimes even side by side) to those theaters are hotels.

Make your theatre trip into an overnight stay in an exciting city that you can explore. You can find a great restaurant to eat in, go to the bars and perhaps the clubs, and then see the sights the next day. Not only have you created a holiday out of a weekend, but you will be able to experience all of this fun with your partner.

Go To A Spa

Everyone is so very busy these days that when you do get a chance to have some time off together, you might want to spend it truly relaxing. A real spa with lots of treatments to choose from can give you that feeling of relaxation.

You don’t actually have to do anything at a spa: you can change into a robe and sit in the lounge or by the pool and enjoy some healthy snacks or a light lunch and a drink and relax in this way. Alternatively, you can do as much as possible (although this will all be relaxing

and not strenuous) and sign up for massages, manicures, aromatherapy treatments, skin scrubs, or perhaps some yoga or Pilates. The point is, whatever you choose to do you should do together. Once you get back home, you’ll feel refreshed and invigorated.

A Boutique Hotel In Paris

Paris is perhaps the first destination that you might think of when it comes to a romantic getaway; the capital of France has a certain reputation for being somewhere that the most romantic of people head to be together for a weekend or so! Paris is definitely a beautiful place, and there is a lot to do there. You might:

* Take a boat trip on the Seine * Climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower

* Visit the Louvre and see the Mona Lisa

* Go to Notre Dame de Paris, the famous cathedral

Once you have seen everything that you want to see, you can pop into the plethora of cocktail bars or restaurants, and experience what Paris has to offer in terms of its world-famous cuisine.

Booking a boutique hotel is an exciting way to stay in Paris. These hotels are completely unique and independent, so you can find something that suits not only your budget but your taste, and enjoy relaxing together in an opulent room, or a themed one, or perhaps something basic but located right in the heart of the city. The wonderful thing about Paris is that you have as much choice as you want and need.

Skiing In Switzerland

It’s not to everyone’s taste to relax on a beach or round a pool, or to be pampered and indulge in some alone time; some couples prefer something a little more adventurous when they have a chance to go somewhere together. In some cases, that might be skiing, and Switzerland is an excellent choice when it comes to finding great resorts. If you’re an expert skier, you can look at different places to ski than if you are a beginner or have never skied before, so having this information in your mind before you start looking is important. That way, you’ll find the ideal place for you both.

If you’re not sure about skiing or you’ve haven’t done it for a little while, booking some lessons with an instructor before you leave home can be a good idea. This way, you’ll get the most out of your time on the slopes for however long you’re away.

Of course, the apres ski experience is just as important as the skiing itself, so you will want to find a resort that offers plenty to do in the evenings. Clubs and bars are a popular choice, and excellent restaurants should always be tried. Then you can retire to your lodge and the wonderful fire that is cracking there to keep you warm, or perhaps a hot tub to relax in.
