While the idea of traveling around the globe is romantic on its own, you need look no further than the United States for the world's best places to fall deeply in love. From the Big Apple to the Big Easy and everywhere in between, there are amazing vacations that await for all different types of couples. In winter, Vermont is filled with people looking to hit the ski slopes, sit by a warm fire, and devour a beautifully prepared meal for two — particularly at luxury hotel Twin Farms.
For a true culinary education set in a beautiful backdrop, the Culinary Institute of America offers culinary weekend and weeklong boot camps for couples in its St. Helena, Calif., location. Guests can choose to immerse themselves in French, Asian, or Mediterranean cuisine while experiencing local flavors and learning new cooking techniques. And Atlantic City, N.J.'s Revel awaits those who are feeling lucky. If the craps tables don't sound alluring, try the fine quality restaurants from celebrity chefs like Jose Garces and Marc Forgione or purchase the breakfast-in-bed package for two for a more whimsical choice. Finally, nothing says romance more than Hawaii — one of the most popular honeymoon destinations around. For food lovers or those following a raw diet, Sacred Source Nutrition offers a weeklong adventure on the Big Island filled with raw, 100 percent organic meals coupled with hikes and long walks under beautiful Hawaiian waterfalls.
