Romantic getaways strengthen relationships, offer new insights into your partner, and create unforgettable experiences. These experiences turn into cherished memories that enrich your soul and tell stories to remember fondly when travel isn’t possible. If you’re planning a trip with your loved one, Romania is an option worth considering. Whether you dream of a picturesque mountain escape or a seaside getaway on the Black Sea, you’ll find options that suit your plans. Here is a list of some of the most romantic destinations in Romania:

1. Harmonie Complex

The motto of this place conveys a simple but vital aspect for everyone’s balance: “Returning humanity to and toward nature.” Where better to rediscover peace and inner tranquility than in a natural setting, far from the city’s hustle and bustle? Harmonie Complex is an oasis of relaxation surrounded by mountains, located just 5 kilometers from the resort town of Predeal in Brașov County.

Intimacy, nature, and romance blend perfectly in this natural setting, with views of the Bucegi Mountains, Piatra Craiului, and Pârâul Rece. The complex features five eco-friendly villas, three tree houses, and an observatory. If you’d like to relive childhood memories or create new ones by staying in a tree house, this fairytale location makes it possible. Here, you’ll be in harmony with nature, enjoying breathtaking scenery.

Each house and villa has a unique design combining wood and natural stone in classic, modern, and rustic styles. The spaces have been arranged to remind you of the traditional mountain cabins of yesteryear but with all modern amenities.

 

2. Corbu Beach in Constanța

Corbu Beach is not your average beach; it’s special due to its wild, unspoiled nature. It’s not a managed beach, but its beauty actually lies in this simplicity. You won’t encounter overcrowding here, but rather a chance to enjoy peace and privacy. Corbu Beach is a different kind of beach, untouched by the usual seaside bustle, offering dreamers and romantics a place to enjoy a soulful experience.

This beach is part of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve. Its fine sand, shell-strewn shores, and swans from the Danube Delta create an idyllic landscape. The wild beauty of nature reveals itself here in full splendor. The simplicity of the place brings you peace as soon as you arrive. The only terrace at Corbu is about 50 meters from the beach. There are many accommodation options nearby, including villas, vacation homes, and guesthouses.

 

3. Mikes Castle in Zabala

In the village of Zabala in Covasna County, you’ll find a cradle of romance embodied in a 16th-century castle. The building’s name comes from the noble family that owns the estate.

Imagine stepping into the noble world of Transylvania and experiencing life as the counts and countesses once did. At Mikes Castle, you’ll have the chance to immerse yourself in this world. This is one of the few historical sites where descendants of the original family still live. The owners’ hospitality is one of the elements that will make your stay truly memorable.

The estate includes over 15 rooms furnished in the style of old palaces, with bright spaces, gilded walls, and traditional stoves. Antique objects, a library, soft background music, romantic dinners, and campfires create a harmonious, romantic atmosphere for unforgettable moments with your loved one. You can also enjoy horse riding, cricket, and rowing at Zabala.

One of the most romantic spots within the complex is the Red Room, which features a bathtub positioned in the center and a medieval decor. Walks along long alleys, a private cinema, and a wood sauna make it the perfect setting for a fairytale getaway.

This vacation spot is ideal if you’re looking for a romantic escape to disconnect from technology, the hustle, and daily routines.

 

4. Hadar Chalet

Hadar Chalet is a luxury lodge reminiscent of Alpine chalets. Here, you’ll enjoy comfort, traditional food, and a complete disconnection from all things technological. This is the perfect place to reconnect with yourself and nature. Initially, the lack of phone signal might sound worrying, but by the end of your stay, you’ll see how beneficial this “digital detox” can be.

Hadar Chalet has 12 rooms divided into standard rooms, premium rooms, suites, deluxe apartments, and penthouses. You can spend a dream weekend with your partner, sipping a glass of wine by the fireplace or stargazing. Activities at Hadar Chalet include mountain walks, tennis, ping pong, and billiards. In summer, couples can enjoy a unique experience with a romantic dinner in a tree house. The pool is also open during the summer. The complex also features a trout farm and a beautifully arranged park.

 

5. The Ice Hotel at Bâlea Lake

This unique idea, the only one of its kind in Southeast Europe, took shape in 2005. Since then, every year in the Făgăraș Mountains, an ice hotel is constructed that attracts numerous visitors. Built entirely from snow and ice blocks sourced from Bâlea Lake, staying in a hand-carved, ice-made room is a true “bucket list” experience for those curious and adventurous. This can be the perfect occasion to share a unique moment with your loved one.

The hotel complex includes the main building, an ice chapel, and igloos for guest accommodation. The furniture is also carved by hand. Don’t be intimidated by the idea of sleeping on an ice bed; the hotel staff have prepared everything to ensure guests stay warm and comfortable, with mattresses and sleeping bags that allow for a comfortable night’s sleep. An additional novelty is that even the glasses at the bar and the plates used for serving food are made of ice.

During winter, the only way to reach Bâlea Lake is by cable car.
