2. Rusinga Island, Kenya
Kenya, as a whole, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Africa, and this island, to be precise is a lover’s paradise. Set on the eastern shore of the majestic Lake Victoria, Rusinga Island, the small island is remotely located, which makes it even ideal as it means a smaller crowd.
It features world-class resorts and hotels and offers beautiful and uninterrupted views of the world’s second-largest freshwater lake. Enjoy and interact with local fishers who head out with lamps every night, making the island even more intriguing. Go fishing, swim, and challenge your partner to a boat-race during the few days you’ll be here. So start planning today so you can make the most out of your experience.
3. Napa Valley, California
Napa, is a romantic destination characterized by rolling vineyards, grand estates, and wineries after wineries of the world’s most iconic wine companies. But there is more to Napa than just wine. Beyond the vineyards, lies a picturesque landscape made up of well-worn mountain trails where you can enjoy hiking, biking, and other nature-related activities.
Make your escape to Napa even more romantic and enjoy the breathtaking views of Napa from hundreds of feet above in a hot air balloon. If you are foodies, you will love Napa Valley even more as it’s home to 6-Michelin starred restaurants and a string of other local eateries and restaurants serving mind-blowing gourmet meals.
4. The Maldives
Thought we had forgotten about the most romantic archipelago in the world? Well, we just saved the best for last. Nestled between Sri Lank and southwest India, the Maldives features a string of overwater bungalows, which offer you a majestic view of the crystal-clear turquoise sea. Enjoy snorkeling and sun-bathing on private white-sandy beaches with your significant other by your side.
A year of busy schedules, business trips, and taking care of kids (if you have any) can easily take a toll on your love life. That is why you and your loved one should take a romantic escape at least once or twice a year. But it doesn’t have to be limited to once a year. You can enjoy such experiences as many times as possible and without breaking a bank by joining a private club-like Xpirient.
