Anything can be romantic; it truly depends on the couple and their interests. A trip to chilly Antarctica for those who are fascinated with the history, animal life, and glorious snowy spectacle will no doubt keep the heart warm. Napa Valley's wine country provides outstanding romantic vacation packages for the wine lovers. Romance may, or may not involve a traditional setting like the backdrop of Paris or floating around in a gondola in Venice. But planning a romantic destination, no matter where, is the starting gun for excitement to be released. Whether it is a few miles from your home or in the next state or country, you are spoiled for choice for these top romantic vacation destinations.

* In America:

Florida has been a top destination choice for its weather, beaches, spas and resorts. Even for adults, Disneyworld can be a romantic escapade, especially when those adults are young at heart. Check out the Disneyworld 'downtown' area, full of top-notch restaurants and, for nighttime adventure, stroll down the Boardwalk. Not only on the mainland can you find romance. Sanibel Island has been a best kept secret for some time, as has St. George Island and Little Palm Island

Arizona, with its healing spas and Grand Canyon is a wonderful playground for a vacation. Whether it's hiking down to the bottom of the canyon by foot or by horse; hunting for fossils or semi-precious gems; learning how to wrangle on a Ranch; checking out the gold rush history left behind in the many ghost towns dotted around the area, or taking on the wild Colorado River, Arizona has been, and will continue to be, a top romantic vacation destination.

Ski resorts have also been a top romantic destination. Who wouldn't like to lounge next to a roasting fire in Aspen, Killington, or Big Sky, after tossing yourself down an icy slope? If you are not interested in plowing through the snow on some wooden sticks, these resorts have some of the top chefs in the world for you to sample their latest offerings. Ski resorts also offer scenic sleigh rides, hiking tours, arts and crafts workshops, theatre, dog sledding, and spas. Even in the summer these resorts are as exciting as they are in winter.

Hawaii can not be left off any romantic destination list. Surrounded by exotic vegetation, lava flows, crashing waves, and star studded night skies, Hawaii walks hand in hand with romance.

New York, New York. Not a skier, hiking, or camping lover? New York provides that big city backdrop for those interested
