One of the best vacations for couples to reconnect is at the lagoon of Aitutaki in the South Pacific’s Cook Islands. It’s often ranked high on lists of the world’s most beautiful places — the panoramic views alone from this luxurious property are guaranteed to make your jaw drop.

It features the island chain’s only over-water bungalows and provides the opportunity to enjoy one of the most breathtaking outdoor playgrounds for snorkeling, kayaking, and motu walking, a popular local activity of wading in the shallow waters between islets.

The Champagne-hued expansive beaches are ideal for a romantic stroll with the one you love, and when sunset marks the end of a beautiful day, you’ll see the lagoon transformed into a blaze of reds, oranges, yellows and pinks, that play across its surface.

Monastero Santa Rose sits high above the charming fishing village of Conca dei Marini on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, one of the most spectacular coastlines on the planet. While this 17th century luxury hotel is worth a visit for the views alone, you’ll find a whole lot more.

Acclaimed as one of the region’s most impressive hotels, it not only offers stunning sea views, but a beautiful pool and luxurious spa, tucked within picturesque tiered gardens. Hidden away in the cliffs between Positano and Amalfi, it makes for the ideal romantic retreat, with plenty of seclusion and privacy.

Enjoy having breakfast delivered to your room each morning, before a day of exploring the area. When you return, relax in the rooftop infinity pool that offers more awe-inspiring views of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
