Romance knows no season. Whether you are bundled up together or looking for a place to escape the cold winter months, there are several romantic winter getaways all over the world. You could stay closer to home or plan for an exotic trip in a far away land. In many cases, it is the couple who make the trip romantic compared to the location of the getaway trip.
Romantic getaways do not always mean sand, beaches and tropical isles. Many couples can enjoy a romantic getaway during the cold winter months. Knowing where to go is the first step in enjoying a break from the typical restraints of winter at home.
Teton Lodge - Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Just one hour south of Yellowstone National Park and situated at the entrance of the Grand Teton National Park there is plenty to do to spend time together outside the confine of your room. However, when you are not off skiing or enjoying the scenery, there are plenty of romantic offering at the Teton Lodge. Aside from the attentive staff willing to be at your beck and call, this lodge offers a luxury spa, steam room, indoor pool, several hot tubs, a tranquility room, and much more.
You also won’t have to go far to experience a romantic dinner with your loved one. They offer an onsite restaurant and bar named the Cascade. It is open for not only lunch and dinner but breakfast as well.
Hotel Jerome - Aspen, Colorado
Hotel Jerome has been around since 1889 and continues to exude romantic elegance and sophistication. They have heated pools, a spa, a couple of Jacuzzis, massages, and more. Hotel Jerome also offers 24-hour room service for those couple who choose to stay up late.
If you and your loved one can pull yourself away from this grand resort, they have a chauffeur who will take you to ski in Aspen and anywhere else you wish to go in downtown Aspen. They also offer you transportation to and from the airport. This eliminates the cost of renting a vehicle.
