If You Want Romance on the Beach
So your idea of romance is powdery white sand and aquamarine waters? Here are our favorite romantic beach destinations…
1. The Philippines
If we were going to plan a second honeymoon (hmm… maybe not be a bad idea), the Philippines would be one of our top picks. We’ve said before that while it’s hard to choose favorite places, the Philippines stole our hearts and is a contender for our favorite country in the world.
If romance is what you’re after, you’ll find it while splashing in the tepid waters of secluded Nacpan Beach, in El Nido, while aboard an island-hopping cruise, or over a candlelit dinner on the beach.
Be sure to visit Boracay to see the beaches that have been hailed as some of the most beautiful in the world!

Take a yoga class together, explore ancient Hindu temples, rent bikes, try surfing and watch some of the most epic sunsets on a beach with cocktails in hand.
And if you have the time, take a short ferry ride to the nearby Gili Islands: Gili Trawangan for a party, Gili Air for amazing beaches and Gili Meno for a secluded getaway where it feels like it’s just you and your bae.

If a racing heart is the key to romance for you and your hunny, we’ve got a list of places that’ll get your blood pumping for more reasons than one…
4. Banff, Canada
We actually took our honeymoon to Banff National Park, and could not recommend it more highly. If you, like us, want to do something completely different than the norm for your honeymoon, this adventure-packed destination should be a contender on your list.
Banff is consistently rated as one of the best national parks in Canada, and for good reason! In addition to adrenaline-pumping activities, explore cute cafes and breweries, bathe in the nearby hot springs and take a gondola to the top of Sulphur Mountain where you’ll quite literally be on top of the world with your babe.
While beautiful year-round, we visited this Canadian slice of heaven in early September, which was perfect for all the outdoor activities we could pack into 2 weeks: hiking, mountain biking, canoeing and even skydiving! Plus, we missed all the crowds of the summer months. So we think it was a pretty perfect time to go.
Psst! Check out this round up of the best hikes in Banff on our sister site!
If you happen to be visiting during the winter (lucky you — snowboarding at Sunshine Resort is on our dream list!), our friends from Practical Wanderlust have a guide you’ve gotta check out! It’s a breakdown of what to pack, top travel tips, and the best things to do in Banff in the winter.

If your idea of romance is exploring a land that looks utterly out-of-this-world, Iceland is calling for you.
You’ll want to rent a car or campervan for this adventure that’ll take you on wide-open roads, past waterfall after waterfall, and to black sand beaches.
Make sure you’ve got plenty of snacks and a killer playlist and get ready for the road trip of a lifetime! You can’t get much more romantic than that in our books.

7. Costa Rica
Some of you may picture Costa Rica and think, “Isn’t this considered a beach destination?” You wouldn’t be wrong! If lounging on a beach or catching some waves is your idea of a romantic holiday, you can certainly count Costa Rica as a good contender.
However, this diverse country is more than just a place with great surfing. Costa Rica is actually a country full of adventurous things to do on a romantic getaway. Go chasing waterfalls during the day and soak the night away with your hunny in natural hot springs. If adrenaline is what gets your blood pumping (see what I did there…) there is white water rafting, zip-lining and plenty of thrill-inducing adventures here.

If Culture Turns You On
If tasting exotic foods, wandering through temples and exploring historical architecture sounds like a perfect setting for romance, we’ve got a few destinations in mind…
8. Kyoto, Japan
There’s something romantic about experiencing something totally out of your element with your sweetie. And Japan is just that: different in every way.
The juxtaposition of chaos and peacefulness creates a perfect ambiance for a blissful getaway with a touch of adventure. Kyoto is a wonderful destination for your first time in Japan.
Wander through the postcard-worthy Arashiyama bamboo forest, explore the orange gates of the Fushimi Inari Shrine, glimpse the iconic Golden Temple and take a Japanese cooking class.
We think Japan is especially romantic in the winter when there are less crowds and you can enjoy each other’s company while soaking nude in an outdoor onsen (hot springs) as snowflakes kiss your shoulders. Dreamy, huh?!
Romantic Place to Stay in Kyoto:
Kyoto Uji Hanayashiki Ukifune-en
Location: Kyoto, Japan
Beautiful views of the river
Incredible rooms
Peaceful, quiet location
9. Florence, Italy
Florence is the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, and what could be more romantic than that? Imagine strolling hand-in-hand with your sweetheart down cobblestone streets, bellies full of pasta, licking your gelato as you gaze at the architectural masterpieces around every corner.
From endless shopping to significant works of art and historical architecture, there is no shortage of things to do while visiting Florence. Besides climbing to the top of the famous Duomo and viewing Michelangelo’s The David statue, you can get love-drunk off Tuscan wine during a wine tasting tour, or try your hand at rolling your own pasta in a cooking class.
If you have extra time on your trip, we recommend staying outside of Florence in a Tuscan villa to channel some major “Under the Tuscan Sun” romance vibes.
Romantic Places to Stay in Florence:
Unique apartment at Mercado Centrale
Location: Central Florence, Italy
Bright open rooms
Lots of restaurants nearby

10. Cartagena, Colombia
The colorful colonial architecture and overgrown flower boxes are enough to make anyone fall in love. Wake up with a coffee on your balcony and watch fruit vendors set up their carts in the streets below.
Spend your days getting lost in narrow passageways, drinking fresh fruit juices and mingling with friendly locals. Watch the sun set from the city walls with a beer in hand and dance the night away in the streets to live music. Cartagena boasts romance at its finest.
And for a nearby beach spot, head to Tayrona National Park for a romantic night (with a bit of adventure!) under the stars. If you want to really pack in the adventures, take a short flight to Medellin to explore this incredibly interesting city, and slow down in the charming mountain village of Salento.

If you’re looking to spice things up with your lover, we’ve got just the place!
As you may know, Mexico has quickly made it’s way to the top of our favorite countries list. If there was one place that stole our hearts above the rest, that would be Oaxaca, if just for the food alone! Oaxaca City is bursting with culture inside it’s brightly-colored and cactus-dotted exterior. It is the perfect location for a romantic holiday filled with new experiences.
Whether you’re visiting for just a few days before heading to the beaches on the coast, or a whole week, there are plenty of ways to fill your time while in Oaxaca.

If You’re A Classic Romantic
If wandering through cobblestone streets amongst architecture that’ll make you swear you’ve stepped into a turn-of-the-century romance novel sounds like your idea of a perfect getaway, keep reading…
12. Lake Bled, Slovenia
Touristy? Sure. But oh so romantically worth it? Hell yes. In northern Slovenia (a country we think is totally underrated, for the record), Lake Bled is a stunning backdrop for any lovebird getaway.
Try the famous Bled cream cake, take a dip in one of the area’s many spas and walk around the lake, of course! Don’t miss a short (but steep) hike up to the viewpoint of the iconic Bled Island. You’ll be happy you made the trek.
And if you’re feeling extra sappy and touristy, you can even hire a rowboat to take you to the island. Legend has it that if you make a wish and ring the bell in the tower of the church, it will come true. And it works better for love-related wishes (wink wink).
Romantic Places to stay in Lake Bled:
Airbnb: New Apartment with a Lake View

13. Amalfi Coast, Italy
Perhaps one of the most iconic honeymoon spots in the world, it’s no wonder so many people venture to Italy’s Amalfi Coast for some post-wedding vacationing.
Pair stunning architecture, seaside views, exquisite cuisine, and even better wine, and you have the perfect recipe for romance.
Positano is perfectly postcard-worthy and the island of Capri looks like something out of a dream.
Insider Tip: While most of the towns lie right on the ocean, venture up the mountain to Ravelo to experience one of the lesser-known towns in this region with some of the best views. The vibe in this tiny medieval village is entirely different than the seaside towns that dot the Mediterranean, but it is just as romantic.
Romantic Place to stay in the Amalfi Coast:
Airbnb: Bright Room with Sea View
Location: Positano, Italy
Amazing Sea Views
Large lounge terrace

14. Paris, France
What’s more romantic than vacationing in the most romantic city in the world? We’re talking about the City of Love after all.
Celebrate your eternal love by engraving your initials on a lock and securing it to the Love Locks Bridge Seine River. Take a leisurely stroll through a pedal dusted park or snuggle up under a blanket on a river cruise. Bring a sunset picnic to the Eiffel Tower and stay until it lights up after dark.
Paris is the ultimate romantic destination for a couples holiday.

If You’re Looking for Romance Off-the-Beaten-Path
If exploring a place utterly unfamiliar with your hunny by your side sounds like your ideal setting for romance, we’ve got a few destinations in mind…
15. Jeju Island, South Korea
Affectionately known as the “Hawaii of Korea” this volcanic island just south of mainland Korea is a stunner.
With a mixture of sandy beaches, unique lava-sculpted landscape to be explored and proud and friendly locals, Jeju has a lovely mix of relaxation, adventure and a culture uniquely its own.
If you want to get really frisky, there’s even a park dedicated to erotic statues, if that’s your thing. It’s no wonder this island is a popular honeymoon destination for many Koreans.
Romantic Places to stay in Jeju:
Location: Seogwipo-si, Jungmun, Jeju Island, South Korea

Quiet rural village
Location: Jungmun, Jeju Island, South Korea

16. Galápagos, Ecuador
If you want a romantic getaway that’s truly once-in-a-lifetime experience, a trip to the Galapagos Islands will be one you’ll be talking about for years.
With an ecosystem that’s unmatched, this archipelago of islands off the coast of Ecuador has some of the best wildlife spotting in the world.
Swim with seals, dive with sharks, search for the elusive blue-footed booby, and spot more iguanas than you can count… you may just fall in love with the wildlife. Oh, and the beaches ain’t too shabby either!
Romantic Places to Stay in the Galápagos:
Hotel Angermeyer Waterfront Inn
Location: Puerto Ayora, Santa Cruz Island
3-minute walk to the beach
Outstanding meals and service
Go snorkeling right outside your room
Location: Puerto Villamil, Isla Isabela
5-minute walk to the beach
Helpful in-house tour desk

17. Croatia
Known for crystal-clear waters surrounding island after island, a sailing trip in Croatia might be the perfect off-the-beaten-path romantic holiday for you and your special someone.
Begin your journey in Split, where you can wander through the narrow streets of the historic old town and stock up on essentials before setting sail. Stop at the party-centric island of Hvar or more tranquil spots like Šolta as you make your way down the Dalmatian coast. You can cater your itinerary to whatever fits your heart’s desires. End your journey in the stunning walled city of Dubrovnik, but not before reading this first.
If we’re being honest, Croatia was not our favorite country to visit in the Balkans and we did feel it was a bit more hyped-up than it deserved. However, there are still plenty of reasons to visit this budget-friendly European country for a romantic holiday.
If you have extra time on your trip, a visit to both Krka and Plitvice Lakes National Park is highly recommended for some of the most epic waterfall viewing in all of Eastern Europe.
Romantic Places to Stay in Croatia:
Location: Supetar, Brač Island, Croatia
Adults only
Steps from the beach
Beautiful pool area
18. Turkey
Turkey wasn’t exactly on our radar until we spent a month there back in 2015 and were continually surprised by its beauty and the seemingly never ending list of adventures to be had. If you need a little convincing, these travel photos are sure to spark your wanderlust for Turkey.
Speaking of lust… There are plenty of places to visit in Turkey that will have the romance vibes set to strong. Imagine hot air ballooning over fairy-like chimneys at sunrise or sleeping in a cave snuggled up next to your special someone.
If you want to get really intimate, get a rub down in a Turkish hammam (traditional Turkish bathhouse) followed by a couples massage.
Romantic Places to Stay in Turkey:
Location: Göreme, Cappadocia, Turkey
Unique rooms for a range of budgets
Cozy cave atmosphere
Beautiful terrace with a pool

We asked our friend Kat, a self-proclaimed travel hacking addict from World Wide Honeymoon, to help us pull together this list of the best honeymoon destinations on a budget, to help you and your spouse travel the globe post-wedding in style, without breaking the bank.
19. Santa Barbara County, CA
If you’re looking to stay stateside, we’ve got just the romantic USA getaway in mind…
While Napa gets all of the attention as a relaxing wine destination, you shouldn’t discount Santa Barbara County. With beaches, world-class wine, and the beauty of the California coast, you’ll quickly unwind on your honeymoon here.
I know it can be hard to believe that anywhere in California can be ideal for a budget honeymoon destination, but it is doable in Santa Barbara County! Wine tastings go for around $15-20 versus $50+ in Napa, making a few days of wine tasting in California much more affordable. You’ll also be able to enjoy the beaches in Santa Barbara and wander along the many boutique shops!
Budget Tip: Find cheap flights to LA or San Diego and drive up the coast to get there, and opt to stay in the delightful Danish town of Solvang in the Santa Ynez Valley versus beachfront in Santa Barbara proper.
Romantic Places to Stay in Santa Barbara, CA:
An adorable little Inn with its windmill out front. It will wow you with its modern and comfortable decor inside, free parking, breakfast, and close proximity to many wineries. The price is also under $150 per night, making it a great, affordable hotel in Santa Barbara.
Best Western Plus Encina Lodge & Suites
Located in Santa Barbara itself. While not directly on the beach, you are close to shops, restaurants, and more and a short drive to the shore. The price is right at under $200 a night too!
20. Cusco, Peru
While Cusco may be known as a backpacker and trekking haven, it is the perfect romantic place for lovers too. Get cozy while sipping coca tea on your balcony, explore gorgeous churches, and definitely take the time to see the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.
Peru is easy to visit on a budget, with average meals costing less than $15 for two and drinks starting at just $2.
Budget Tips:
The best way to save money in Peru is to avoid visiting during June-August, the busiest time of year and the most expensive.
Flights can be found from the US to Lima for pretty cheap, and flights around Peru are inexpensive as well.
Romantic Places to Stay in Cusco:
An absolutely stunning hotel built on top of Incan and colonial ruins. The hotel is small and the rooms are decorated with Incan sculptures. Enjoy the views of the city and mountains from the balcony while eating breakfast each morning. Cost is around $100 per night.
Perfect for those who’d like to save a little more money on accommodation. Cost is around $50 per night, and offers a bar/lounge, shuttle service, and an electric blanket to keep you warm on those chillier evenings.
Both hotels are in the historic part of town, making it easy to walk to many attractions!
21. Prague, Czech Republic
Prague is for lovers. As much as I love Paris, if you want to visit a romantic city but save some money, Prague is the clear winner.
The exchange rate advantage is great. Hotel rooms can be found in high season often for under $100 per night and there are plenty of cheap (and free) things to do in the city. Discount flights and cheap train fares to Prague can be found from anywhere in Europe.
Budget Tip: The best way to save money in Prague is to stay further from the city center of Old Town Prague. As charming as it is, it is free to wander along Charles Bridge, admire the architecture, etc., whereas hotels can be very pricey here. Instead, stay outside the main tourist area and don’t eat at the typical touristy restaurants and you’ll save a lot of money.
Romantic Places to stay in Prague:
On the edge of the Old Town city center, with sleek and modern rooms and within walking distance of most of the main attractions in Prague. For around $90 per night, it is a very affordable hotel for your honeymoon.
If you want to save even more money, you’ll spend around $75 per night here. This modern hotel is also just outside the main square and within walking distance to the sights in Old Town Prague.
22. Malta
The island nation of Malta is starting to gain popularity, particularly Valletta, the country’s capital. Malta is an affordable place to honeymoon with gorgeous beaches and fairly priced accommodation, making it absolutely perfect for a Mediterranean getaway without the price tag.
Budget Tip: To save money on your trip to Malta, spend a day or two in the capital city, and take the ferry over to Gozo Island. This lush isle is full of amazing sites including ancient, stone structures, inland caves, and more!
Romantic Places to Stay in Malta:
This beach-side accommodation only costs about $60 per night. Enjoy shuttle bus service to get where you need to go, gorgeously decorated rooms, and amazing views of the Mediterranean.
An adorable bed and breakfast with stunning stone rooms, a pool and hot tub, and bikes for rent. You’ll feel at ease in this small B&B on your honeymoon.
23. Halong Bay, Vietnam
Vietnam is truly stunning. We also spent some time here during our honeymoon and I cannot wait to return. The most beautiful place we’ve probably ever been was Halong Bay.
Vietnam is also an incredibly affordable place. While cruises may be more expensive, they do include food and activities, as well as transportation to and from Hanoi. We felt like the cruise we took through Halong Bay was beyond worth it, but you can also save extra money by staying on land.
Related Reading: If you should decide to plan your honeymoon in Halong Bay, you’ll want to be sure to read up on how to get a Vietnam visa on arrival and other helpful tips in our Vietnam Travel Guide.
Romantic Places to Stay in Halong Bay:
This luxurious cruise is the best way to see Halong Bay. The food is fantastic, the activities were fun, and you can’t beat those views. Also, the room was perfectly decorated with a giant bathtub for soaking while enjoying the view.
Prices start around $350 per night for two people. Yes, it looks expensive, but not bad when it includes everything other than alcohol and spa treatments. It also sails out to the lesser-known part of the bay called Bai Tu Long Bay. There were hardly any other ships out there with us and it was blissful.
Opt to stay on land for a fraction of the cost of a cruise. At only $40 per night, you’ll have large rooms, a spa, and a perfect escape from bustling Hanoi on the shores of Halong Bay.
24. Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka might be a small country but it sure has a lot to offer for the budget traveler. With gorgeous tea plantations, idyllic beaches, and unique landscapes, Sri Lanka is the perfect place for a budget honeymoon.
You can stay at luxury resorts across the country for under $100 per night, take a train ride for under $1 per person, and even a full meal costs under $4 per person! It’s seriously that cheap.
Budget Tip: When it comes to saving money, just traveling here is inexpensive, from transportation to accommodation. My biggest tip is to use travel hacks to find a cheap flights.
Romantic Places to Stay in Sri Lanka:
Palm Paradise Cabanas & Villas Beach Resort Tangalle
Stay on the beach in a lovely villa with your own private terrace. Located in Tangalle on the southern part of the island, it is perfect for a beach getaway and only costs $75 per night.
Get lost on a tea estate! This place is only $80 per night, with perfect views of the plantation. Enjoy long hikes around Victoria Park of Nuwara Eliya or Galway’s Land National Park, check out the tea factory, or relax at the spa.
Did I mention these are 5-star resorts for under $100?!
25. Santorini, Greece
Bet you didn’t expect to see this popular honeymoon destination in the budget category!
While Santorini can certainly be a top tier honeymoon destination, it is also possible to stay here on a budget. With awe-inspiring views, pink and black sand beaches, and so many great spots to explore, Santorini is a place many honeymooners fall in love with.
To save money here requires a little effort…
Biggest Budget Tip of Them All: Don’t stay in Oia.
This area is super touristy and the hotel prices are insanely expensive, especially during high season. Instead, opt for the other side of the island like Perissa or Kamari where there are beautiful beaches and great, affordable restaurants. There are plenty of tours and buses that will take you to see Oia and around the islands as well as ATV rentals to get out and explore for yourself.
Romantic Places to Stay in Santorini:
Beachfront access on Perissa Beach for only $90 per night is a honeymooners dream. Enjoy the black sand beach and incredible seafood at this hotel while falling in love with the decor and classic white washed facade.
Only $90 per night and located in Kamari next to the beach. This eco-friendly hotel is perfect for a romantic getaway with a private balcony, swimming pool, and views of the sea.
