If you’re thinking of whisking your partner away on a romantic retreat, you should consider a trip to Spain. Short breaks to Spain will rekindle the romance and make you fall in love all over again. You can’t go wrong with plenty of sunshine, world-class cuisine, a rich culture, and golden and white sand beaches. If you’re thinking of planning short breaks to Spain, here are some of the most romantic spots:
Get lost in Madrid
The capital city of Spain is famed for its art and culture – with 73 museums, including the world-famous Prado Museum and the Reina Sofia National Art Centre. There are so many things to do in Madrid, every corner you turn uncovers something interesting, from bars to restaurants to glorious sights. Walk along the Gran Via, tour the city’s parks, or have a quintessential Spanish experience at the Teatro de la Zarzuela (Spanish musical theatre).
Wine and dine in Andalusia
Andalusia is a paradise for those who love to eat good food and drink fine wine. Granada is the best city for tapas – if you order a beer or a soft drink you get a free plate of something to eat, such as ham, meatballs, patatas a la pobre, and flamenquines (meat roll). When in Andalusia, make sure you watch a flamenco show in Seville – there’s nothing more romantic than watching the beautiful and intense art of Spanish dance.
Experience the luxury of Marbella
If you love glamour, luxury, and excitement – then Marbella is the destination for you. This classy Costa Del Sol resort is home to the famous Puerto Banus, a luxurious yachting port where partygoers can enjoy some of the biggest DJ appearances and star-studded clubs. Strolling along the puerto Banus will make you feel like you’re in a music video, surrounded by luxury yachts, fancy cars, and the occasional celebrity.
Immerse yourself in art and culture in Barcelona
Barcelona is a cosmopolitan city on the Mediterranean coast with an ancient history that spans 2000-plus years. The Gothic Quarter (Barri Gòtic), fascinating museums, and modernist landmarks all make Barcelona one of the most enchanting cities in Spain. It also has a thriving nightlife scene – the city’s old school taverns, fancy lounges, and trendy bars will keep you up until the early hours of the morning. Barcelona’s Modernism art scene and architecture is mainly influenced by Gaudi. It has since inspired artists such as Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso, and Joan Miró.
Relax on a beach in Mallorca
The sunny island of Mallorca has all the right elements for a romantic short break – sunshine, gastronomy, culture, and long sandy beaches. Mallorca is the largest island in the Balearic Islands archipelago. You can explore Michelin starred restaurants, glorious landscapes, hidden coves, sandy beaches, and picturesque villages such as Deia, Soller, and Valldemossa. If you’re not soaking up the sun on one of the many beaches, you can drive along the Serra de Tramuntana range and marvel at the amazing view.
