Full of Glamour and Romance, These Luxury Destinations Are Perfect for Couples
Big Sur, California
The Central Coast of California, and especially the 90-mile stretch along Highway 1 between Carmel and San Simeon, is known as one of the most jaw-dropping on Earth. On one side, you’ll see the soaring Santa Lucia Mountain Range, and on the other, dramatic cliffs that are pounded by the crashing waves of the Pacific.
Big Sur is renowned for its isolated beaches, and it even hosts a a rare purple-sand beach. Its hue comes from the manganese garnet deposits that are found in the surrounding rocks. At Pfeiffer Burns State Park, marvel at the 80-foot-tall waterfall that plunges from the dramatic cliffs onto the sands below.
After a day exploring the region, you’ll find numerous high-end resorts to choose from, many featuring panoramic views of the ocean.
Positano, Italy
You’d be hard-pressed to find a place along the Amalfi Coast that wasn’t romantic, but Positano is arguably the most. This luxurious seaside town is filled with glamor and romance; colorful buildings spill down the mountainsides and are combined with fabulous beaches, intense blue waters and amazing sunsets that make it ideal for a couples’ getaway.
Enjoy browsing the shops and markets filled with fresh produce, sipping wine, lounging on the sand and soaking up the views.
These Kauai helicopter tours will fly you over (and sometimes land you next to) the most remote and beautiful sights the island has to offer.
Paris, France
Paris is often referred to as the City of Love and Romance. There are a number of luxurious properties where you can enjoy views of the city’s most iconic landmark, the Eiffel Tower. Wander the charming streets hand-in-hand, sip French wine and nibble on delectable cheeses, and then take a moonlit cruise down the Seine River.
Cap off the experience by heading to the top of the Eiffel Tower just before twilight turns to darkness, a time when the dazzling lights sparkle across the city below.
