Want to head somewhere romantic with your partner this summer? If you’ve never been to Marlyland before, this is the kind of destination that should be top of your getaway list! Maryland has some great spots for couples, and some lovely hotels to book a few nights in, and if you don’t have the money for a week in NYC right now, a trip to Maryland is a great alternative. But to make sure the two of you get the most of your mini break, make sure you include these three romantic things in your travel itinerary.
Meander Through an Art Museum
Art museums are surprisingly romantic places. You and your partner can walk hand in hand through the gallery and take your time looking at and talking about the art on the walls. Make each other laugh by pointing out the awkward bits, sit on the benches together and take pictures, and buy your partner a surprise gift when you reach the gift shop at the end.
Maryland is home to quite a few art museums as well, such as The Walters Art Museum, or the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts. Admission to both of these is free, so not only will you get in for nothing, but you’ll get a taste of the romanticism art evokes entirely for free as well!
Book a Luxury Hotel
A luxury hotel is one of the most romantic things to arrange while you’re away. So, while you’re in Maryland, why not head over to Baltimore and book a night or two in one of the best hotels in Baltimore?
Luxury stays can give you and your partner a little taste of the high life together, champagne and rose petals included, and you can definitely share a warm and bubbly bath together in one of those big hotel room tubs!
You can then dine in the hotel restaurant and have a candlelit dinner, which can be rare when you’re just at home together, but you can really push the boat out here and have a good time just the two of you.
Spend Time at Ocean City Beach and Boardwalk
Ocean City is a resort right on the edge of the heart of Maryland, and you can spend a good couple days there exploring the sites, trying out the games and rides, and going arm in arm with your significant other.
Beaches and boardwalks are always romantic places, no matter how long you’ve been together, and there’s even a chance you could win your partner a teddy bear. You really won’t run out of things to do, and you might even find it hard to leave when the end of your romantic getaway comes around!
If you’re visiting Maryland this summer, and you’re taking your partner with you, go all out with a sprinkling of romance by planning the activities above. Your itinerary will come off as very impressive, especially if you want to surprise your partner too!
