With February 14 right around the corner, there’s no better time to book a trip and take advantage of rose petal baths, glasses of Champagne, plush beds, and couples massages galore. When you’re looking for an intimate getaway for you and bae, the destination options are endless, but these international and domestic hotels and resorts get our vote for their V-Day deals and romantic details (even if you never feel like leaving your room). Scroll down to see them all.
Narbona Wine Lodge in Carmelo, Uruguay
Tucked away in the remote countryside of Carmelo, Uruguay, this five room lodge is so special, you won’t want to leave. Built in 1909, the Relais & Chateaux property has an on-site vineyard and cellar where they craft their award-winning Narbona wines (and produce all of their own to-die-for cheeses, olive oils, dried pastas, conservas, and dulce de leche). In close proximity, there’s also a nearby private beach in Puerto Camacho right by a fun local lunch spot called Basta Pedro. The accommodations offer so many unlimited activities where canoodling is definitely encouraged. Think bike, kart, and horse-drawn carriage rides through the vines, gaucho-led horseback riding, and sunset cruises over the Rio de la Plata or wine and cheese tastings with their sommelier. This is all customizable as part of your stay, so if you choose to ever abandon your quarters (adorned in treasured antiques, curated knickknacks, and one-of-a-kind artwork, of course) at least you have these to fall back on.
