Sharing is caring!

Valentine’s Day is nearly upon us. I know, right? Again? I can’t say we’re big fans of the holiday–we pretty much treat it like any other day of the year–but folks seem to like an opportunity to escape from the day-to-day with a little romantic getaway. So if you’re in a relationship, grab your partner and hit the road to pay a visit to one of the United State’s most romantic cities. If not, these destinations are pretty all-around awesome whether you’re coupled or not, so grab a friend (or schedule a little me-time) and explore!

In no particular order, some of the loveliest cities in the U.S. for a romantic (or bro-mantic or girlfriend) getaway:

Savannah, Georgia

1. Savannah, Georgia

All that Spanish moss creating tunnels in the park? How could you not want to hold hands?

2. Key West, Florida

Um, because who doesn’t love palm trees and the beach in the middle of winter?

3. New Orleans, Louisiana

Like jazz? Love creole? Head to the bayou. Just steer clear of Bourbon Street if you plan on keeping it classy.

Honolulu, Hawaii

4. Honolulu, Hawaii

Beaches, waterfalls, snorkeling, hula…like you need a reason to go to Hawaii.

5. Lake Tahoe, Nevada/California

Snow is a perfect excuse to play outside and then chill by the fireplace with a cup of hot cocoa.

6. San Francisco, California

There’s just something about that bridge, isn’t there? If you like urban retreats, this might be your jam.

7. Portland, Maine

Leave the hustle and bustle behind and journey to the picturesque northeast. You’ll practically have the place to yourself in February.

8. Sedona, Arizona

Cool to mild in this desert oasis, it’s the perfect time to squeeze in some hiking or climbing together.

Boston, Massachusetts

9. Boston, Massachusetts

It may be chilly in February, but this city is rich with romantic experiences, especially for history buffs.

10. Austin, Texas

Maybe it’s because we live here, but we love this city’s eclectic mix of swanky clubs, outdoor activities and posh local hotels.
