7 Tips for Planning a Romantic Getaway

There’s nothing better than planning the ultimate romantic getaway to show your loved one how much you care for them! Whether it’s a staycation a few minutes from your house or a journey to the other side of the world, we recommend taking these 7 tips into consideration when planning your next getaway!

1. Consider your partner’s unique preferences

Everyone has unique tastes and preferences, especially when it comes to how we travel! Be sure to take your partner’s personality into consideration as you plan your romantic getaway. If your partner loves the outdoors, find a cool yurt or cabin to stay in. If your special someone loves the beach, plan the ultimate beach getaway! If you’re not sure what your partner likes or how they tend to travel, ask their friends and family, or consider including them in the planning process.

2. Plan to check out when you check-in

Romantic getaways are all about connecting with your loved one and making memories that will last a lifetime. In order to get the most of your trip together, we recommend checking out of our daily routine the moment you leave for your trip. That means putting work, the stresses of life, and your social media and email away! Trust us —you’ll be glad you did!

3. Budget ahead of time

There’s nothing that will dampen the mood more than an argument about finances. While we’d all love to go treat out special someone to a luxurious vacation, that’s not always possible! Be sure to stick within your own budget and include budgeting as part of your planning process. Decide from the getgo how much you’re able to spend on your getaway and plan your accommodations, meals, and activities according to your budget. This will enable you to go into your vacation without worrying about finances, while also not breaking the bank!

4. Skip the big holiday weekends

It doesn’t need to be Valentine’s Day in order to plan a romantic vacation for you and your loved one. In fact, if you’re on a budget, we recommend planning your trip during the off-season or during the week to avoid price surges.

5. Go somewhere you haven’t been before

One of the best parts of traveling is exploring somewhere new and it’s even more fun when you’re with the one you love! While it can definitely be fun to take your special someone to your favorite spot, there’s something special about making memories together somewhere new!

6. Bring in the expert

Planning a romantic getaway should be fun, but we also know it can definitely cause some stress! Thankfully, the experts are just one call away! With Tripp’s travel planning services, we can help you plan and customize a trip that fits exactly what you and your partner need!

7. Plan your trip — but not too much!

We definitely recommend planning ahead when it comes to activities and doing some research beforehand on the best spots to eat and drink, but we also recommend leaving room for spontaneous adventures and time to just sit back and relax with the one you love the most!
