TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - February 14th is just around the corner—do you know what that means? It’s time to head to some of the best places for Valentine’s Day, where the romantic atmosphere is ready to elevate your bond.
Whether you're after more than just chocolates and flowers or simply seeking a unique way to celebrate, these exceptional destinations present unforgettable experiences for the occasion.
List of the Best Places for Valentine’s Day
European Best Destinations and TimeOut highlight Madeira, Portugal, as one of the best places for Valentine’s Day 2025. Other hotspots around the globe include:
Madeira, Portugal
The image of a romantic getaway under the sun while being surrounded by lush landscapes isn’t just a dream in Madeira; it’s a reality for Valentine’s Day 2025. This small Portuguese island boasts a pleasantly warm climate, transforming your love-filled day into a laid-back escape with sparkling beaches as your backdrop.
As one of the best places for Valentine’s Day, adding a little more adventure to your moments can be done by swimming in Madeira’s natural pool. The piscinas naturais at Porto Moniz, for example, provide a unique, refreshing experience in crystal-clear waters. Don’t miss the opportunity to taste the island's famous Madeira wine to perfectly toast to love.
Kvarner, Croatia
Croatia is undeniably a stunning country, and its bay of Kvarner is no exception. Ever since the 19th century, this gem has been attracting global travelers with its meticulous charm of elegant, coastal grace, as well as its intimate atmosphere.
Upon your arrival, expect your stays at villas or hotels framed by exotic gardens, which only elevate the romantic vibes for Valentine's Day. Each day promises to be filled with nothing but mesmerizing beaches that stretch out to meet the endless blue horizon.
Napa, USA
Napa Valley is a timeless option among the best places for Valentine’s Day, especially if you and your partner are wine connoisseurs. The valley is dotted with more than 450 wineries offering private wine tours, tastings, and intimate picnics.
Weaving in a thread of outdoor discovery, take a thrilling hot air balloon ride, where you and your partner can soak in Napa Valley’s lush, rolling hills while enjoying breathtaking views—and each other’s company—from high above.
Styria, Slovenia
Slovenia may not be on most people’s radar, but the region of Styria is perfect for couples seeking a mix of nature and history. One of the must-see spots on Valentine’s Day is the heart-shaped road, where you and your loved one can enjoy a serene walk surrounded by lush hills and vibrant flowers.
Styria is also renowned for its exceptional wines, making every visit complete with a glass or two. If you don’t try the local wine, did you really visit Styria?
Finland
While much of the world celebrates February 14th with romantic partners, Finland does things a bit differently. On this day, Finland observes "Friends Day" (Ystävänpäivä in Finnish), turning the occasion into a celebration of friendship and connection.
Celebrate the day in Finland's snow-covered landscapes and witness the otherworldly Northern Lights—a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience that adds a magical touch to this delightful holiday.
Venice, Italy
What to think about Venice? It’s the very definition of romance. This enchanting city whispers romance at every turn, from its winding canals and charming bridges to its ornate architecture.
If you’re looking for a quieter escape, consider Burano, a charming island near Venice that radiates romance in its own way. The island’s main draw is its unique, colorful houses, which are painted in the same hues as the fishermen’s boats.
From the romantic beaches of Madeira to the winter magic of Finland, each of these spots provides an unforgettable backdrop to celebrate your love on Valentine’s Day.
If you're seeking more romantic spots, you might find inspiration in exploring some of the best honeymoon destinations in the world.
