When you’re ready to escape with someone special, I always turn to romantic getaways in British Columbia. You’ll love the mountain views, fresh ocean air, and those cozy, just-you-and-me moments.

Highlights:

  • Unwind like I did in a lakeside lodge or luxury cabin in Whistler—it’s pure peace.
  • Stroll through Butchart Gardens near Victoria; I promise you’ll feel like you're in a fairytale.
  • Relax with wine tastings and vineyard views in the Okanagan Valley—something I think you’ll truly savor.
  • Cozy up at a beachfront resort on Salt Spring Island. I still remember the sound of waves as we watched the stars.
  • Enjoy ocean sunsets, fine dining, and spa treatments in Tofino. I did, and I think you’ll fall for it too.
