2017 Valentines Day Getaways

Baby, it’s cold outside. But you can make February sizzle if you think beyond the bonbon box this Valentine’s Day and plan a romantic out-of-town rendezvous.

Of course, countless hotels peddle cookie-cutter “romance packages.” But most are meh — certainly not sweet enough to sweep anybody off their feet. So we’ve scouted out some of the most alluring romance adventures, located nearby or a nonstop flight away.

Some are surprisingly affordable; others will convince you that you can’t put a price tag on romance. There are whirlwind weekends involving treks around town, and those that give you reasons not to leave the hotel room. Whichever you choose, your sweetie will surely say yes to practically anything you are proposing.

Conversely, being dateless this year doesn’t mean you need to spend the holiday watching “Real Housewives” reruns with your cat. Grab your BFF and check into one of these epic “galentine” getaways — where you can reminisce, recharge and raise the roof — with the one who’s always had your back. (Unless noted, rates quoted are double occupancy and do not include tax.)
