Romance In Newport Beach

It's no secret that finding a honeymoon location or
a place to take your sweetheart is important.  With 
many places to choose from, you may be surprised to
hear that Newport Beach is actually one of the most
romantic - yet also one of the most overlooked areas
in the entire United States.


For honeymooners or those in love looking to re-kindle
the flame, Newport Beach has a lot to offer when it 
comes to romance.  The entire environment and setting
around the Beach is romantic, with romance budding at 
each and every turn.


On a hot day, walking hand in hand down Marine Avenue
on Balboa Island is enriching.  You and your mate can
check out the sites and talk about things.  Then, you 
can head over to Balboa Fun Zone and play games together,
enjoying the best life has to offer.  To show her that
you care, you can even win her a stuffed animal - one
thing that all females seem to love!


On the harbor of Newport Beach, a romantic gondola ride
remains one of the most romantic things to do.  A gondola
ride is great to relax, sitting back with one and another
and enjoying the best of the beach.  Sometimes, nothing
beats just enjoying the presence of one another and
taking in some of the best sites that vision has to offer.


Once night begins to set in, nothing is more romantic 
than a trip to the Bayside Restaurant or the Aubergine,
two of the most romantic restaurants in Orange County.  
Both you and your partner will enjoy the setting here, as
well as the food.


After you have enjoyed a romantic dinner, you can watch
the sun rise on the beach.  Both sunrise and sunset is
breathtaking at Newport Beach, something each and every 
couple should experience at least once in a lifetime.


Before you call it a trip, you should also make sure to
get pampered at a local spa.  The spa's around Newport
Beach are exhiarating, something your whole body will 
find superb.  As a couple or a separate trip, a relaxing
day at the spa is very hard to rival.


When it comes to a honeymoon or a trip as a couple, 
Newport Beach is one location you'll remember the rest of
your lives.  There is so much to do here as a couple, 
you'll probably want to come back again and again.  As 
time goes by and you get older, you'll find that Newport
Beach is the perfect place to come back to - no matter
where the road of life takes you.




Create your own Romantic Story this Valentine’s Day by celebrating with a romantic vacation package at a posh resort or by having an intimate dinner at sunset. 

If you’re looking for a little Italian influenced “amore” look no further than the gondoliers of Newport Harbor. It’s the romance of Venice without the jet lag. Hire your own gondola for a sunset cruise on Newport Harbor. Pack a picnic and share a champagne toast as your private gondolier serenades you around the bay. And just like in Venice, it’s good luck to kiss under any bridge under which you pass.

	Since the days of Romeo and Juliet, balconies have always been havens of romance where sunrise, sunset or midnight kisses occur. With inspiring views of the blue Pacific Ocean, and Catalina Island in the distance, plus the invigorating sea breezes, the many hotel and resort suites in Newport Beach that afford such a scene, are ideal romantic settings.

	Voted the most romantic restaurant in Orange County by the 2007 and 2008 Zagat Guide, this elegant dining destination just off the boardwalk is a year-round favorite for couples. Featuring fine dining by candlelight, the menu of luscious Continental selections and acclaimed ambience is the perfect setting for memorable Valentine’s Day-like dining every day of the year.

A custom-made Venetian-themed carousel with 32 antique horses and a menagerie of animals with views of the blue Pacific Ocean in the distance is an ideal location for romantic fun. The carousel is located at Fashion Island, Orange County’s premier open-air retail center that boasts nearly 200 specialty shops, world-class department stores and a vast array of restaurants and cafes, in a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere that is distinctively Southern California.

At The Resort at Pelican Hill, the newest luxury getaway destination in Newport Beach, lovebirds can tie the knot at the resort’s classically romantic wedding rotunda and great lawn. The majesty of the natural surroundings, gentle ocean breezes and the feeling that the whole world has taken pause for this special moment culminates in the all-important wedding kiss. A meticulously manicured oval lawn spills out to the end of the ridge, where an iconic Italian rotunda is perched 300 feet above the blue sea below.
