Discover The Best Vacation Ideas For Couples With These Unique Travel Plans

Some couple's getaways are absolutely amazing. In fact, you may know of a couple who have told you just how incredible their last vacation was together and how romantic and perfect it all was.

Whilst that is great for them, what about you? The type of vacation you and your partner both enjoy may vary greatly from what someone else's ideal vacation looks like. That's why you need to choose the right vacation style for your love. 

In this article, we will give you 5 unique travel plans and vacation ideas that you can use to help inspire your upcoming escape. Read through these different itineraries with your other half and see what kind of getaway would be best for your romance. 

1) Food lover's vacation plan

Are you a foodie? Is your partner? We know that everyone loves food, and everyone has their favorite drink or dish that they enjoy. But if you are a real food lover, then why not make that the core of your vacation? By centering your attention on the flavors and delicious treats that you can try, you can let your escape be an experience for your palette. 

You can start off by downloading The Excellence Collection app and looking at the menus and cocktail lists from each restaurant in your favorite hotel. This will whet your appetite and will allow you to start planning your main meals, drinks, and snacks for your vacation. 

But you do not need to stop there. The surrounding area is also going to be a foodie paradise of local tastes, authentic cuisine, and experiential flavors. Have a look for local distillery tours, chocolate tours, and any other type of foodie excursion that piques your interest. Make sure you check with your partner too so that they can get to try the things that they love. 

A focus on food is something that couples can enjoy together. A classic date is often accompanied by a nice meal or a fancy drink, so why not turn your entire vacation into one giant date that doesn't end? 

2) Relaxation plan

Most couples travel so that they can both unwind and get the break that they need. This vacation plan is the easiest of them all. It involves room service, days by the pool, lazy days by the beach, and a lot of reading, watching TV, and sleeping in. 

To relax, all you really need is an All Inclusive resort with 24-hour room service. Find a setting that sets you both at ease and allows the stresses of daily life to melt away. When you both allow yourselves to relax, you put yourselves in the best mood, you gain peace of mind, and it reflects nicely on the way you treat each other. 

You can of course go even further. If you want true indulgence and serenity, then there is nothing quite like some couple's treatments in the resort spa. You can book these ahead of time and let yourselves drift into utter bliss. 

3) Adventurous couples plan

What if you are a couple that craves excitement and thrills? What if you want to enjoy moments that take your breath away? For the adrenaline seekers, there is plenty for you to enjoy on vacation. 

First start by seeing what activities are included in your resort. This likely won't include high-octane adventures but can include some excitement to get you started. Look out for watersports and land sports and see if there is anything that you would both be interested in. 

Next, take a look at the catalog of available local excursions and adventures. This may include ziplining, scuba diving, horseback riding, ATV rentals, theme parks, parasailing, helicopter rides, speedboats, and more. 

Adventurous couples may also wish to plan some thrilling evenings so look at the calendar for in-resort theme nights as well as what is available via the local nightlife. By taking advantage of each adventure together you are sure to make some incredible memories through extraordinary experiences as a couple. 

4) Cultural experiences plan

Some couples are looking for sophisticated and authentic experiences that take them into the history and culture of the country they are visiting. If you want to immerse yourself in your surroundings, learn about the local way of life, and get a feel for the area, then this is the couples vacation plan for you.

Start by learning about the language together and doing some research before you arrive. This will help you prepare for the good times to come. Then once you arrive, organize some tours through some of the local attractions that dive into the culture. This could mean a private tour of the Chichen Itza, Tulum, or Ek Balam ruins, some authentic entertainment like Mariachi, or something similar that gives you the right immersion.

You can also enjoy the cultural experiences by way of the cuisine, or by trying the local liquor and cocktails. Plan out your days to include historical experiences, culinary tastes, and local shows and activities. 

By the time you finish your couples vacation, you will both feel like you have really seen the actual destination and enjoyed the best of what it has to offer. 

5) The personalized plan for two

The last of these couples' vacation plans is a customizable one. Some lovebirds want to take parts of all the previous plans and combine them into their own personal plan of indulgence. If there is something that you want to both do, then there is nothing to hold you back from trying it.

Take some time to really talk with your partner and make a list of the things that you both want to enjoy. Crossreference your lists and see which of the items match what you both want and then make a few compromises to make sure that you both get to enjoy some of the things that you individually want to try. 

The end result of this type of planning is that you select the things you most enjoy together. This may mean that you enjoy some relaxation, some adventure, some food, and some culture. However, it is important to remember that you need to prioritize a few of your favorite interests since you cannot cover everything all in one go. 

Mix and match the best of what your destination and your ideal hotel have to offer and enjoy the ultimate couples' escape!
