Consider your options for romantic destinations. Do you want to drive or fly? Do you want to create the mood in an urban setting like Paris, or a rugged place like Big Sur?

Research bed-and-breakfasts, small inns and private cabins or condos in your destination area, once you nail down a place.

Ask about special room features: large tubs, fireplaces, king-sized beds and patios with sweeping views.

Research idyllic beach walks, gentle mountain trails or picnic areas in the area you will be visiting.

Tips & Warnings

Tell him to meet you after work in a nearby hotel. Have candles lit and a hot tub of water filled with bubbles. Meet him at the door in your sexiest nightie. Order room service.
