With Valentine’s , they’re cliché and they die way too fast. We recently discovered a new way to present flowers to someone you love, a whole sunflower farm along the coast of Puerto Rico! Sounds complicated? It’s not. Puerto Rico is reasonably priced, doesn’t require passports, has the same money and cellphone towers, and is romantic. We found some beautiful and romantic resorts located on the Caribbean Sea, near a bioluminescent bay, and surrounded by little islands and islets to explore. So, what we’re saying is jet off to a romantic island, check out the gorgeous flower farm, experience a couple’s massage on the beach, and relight the fire.

They say chocolate is the quickest way to someone’s heart and we agree. Chocolate can be an awesome way to express one’s love, but this year why not ditch the boxes and annoying foil wrappers—they just get in the way. Here’s what we propose: spend some time in the chocolate capital of the Caribbean, St. Lucia. Yes, this beautiful and romantic island is known for beaches and gorgeous resorts, but there is more to do (especially for chocolate lovers). If you’re a foodie, you’ll enjoy the farm to table approach for chocolate. If you’re into the whole spa thing, then we have a treat for you: a Cacao Facial at a spa. Stay at Boucan by Hotel Chocolate, enjoy some delicious chocolate inspired fair, and relax with the one you love on this romantic island.
Turn up the mood lighting! Our final recommendation is to treat your sweetheart to a romantic cruise out of Miami on our favorite new cruise ship, The Scarlet Lady. Virgin Voyages is a brand-new cruise line created by Richard Branson and seeks to transform cruises as we know them. Virgin offers a chill “come as you are” adult-only experience, and wow—it is fun! With amazing restaurants, unique entertainment choices, and a fabulous private beach club stop in Bimini, your special someone is sure to appreciate your thoughtfulness in booking this romantic cruise getaway gift. And how could we forget the best part? Ask your TGLT Travel Specialist about the unique mood lighting setting in your stateroom, including a “let’s get it on” mode… we promise it will set the mood.
Just a couple of ideas our team came up with for Valentine’s Day, a birthday, an anniversary, or for any reason to just get away with that special person. We’ve got many more romantic ideas as well (think warm natural springs or romantic carriage rides through Europe), but we thought we’d just propose these three as alternatives for the usual. Either way, our Travel Specialists are here to help and we hope this year’s Valentine’s Day is one to remember!
