We’ve rounded up our top 8 romantic ideas for the perfect holiday getaway that will make your loved one feel truly special. From breakfast in bed to a sunset cruise around the island, these are some of our favorite ways to spend Valentine’s Day with your sweetheart:
1. Start your Valentine’s Day with breakfast in bed
Starting your Valentine’s Day with breakfast in bed can be a great way to begin the day with your loved one. It’s a simple yet romantic gesture that shows you care and want to make the day special. It’s a classic Valentine’s Day tradition.
How can you make it even more memorable in your Casiola vacation rental? Surprise your partner by decorating the bedroom with rose petals or an arbor made from flowers. Buy or make some fresh croissants in your fully equipped kitchen. Serve a bottle of champagne, chocolates and other treats like pastries and fresh fruit. Set up a table outside the room if you have one available so that you can dine together outside on this lovely day! Or order a Valentine’s Breakfast Basket with Picnic Aruba (also available for delivery).
2. Do something adventurous
If you’re looking for something a little more adventurous than a traditional dinner and a movie, then you’ll love the next Valentine’s Day ideas! There are plenty of ways to get your adrenaline pumping this Valentine’s Day. Aruba offers many adventurous activities for couples looking to add some excitement to their Valentine’s Day celebration.

One option is spending a day on the water with a snorkel and sail trip. The waters around Aruba offer many opportunities for spotting marine life—from dolphins to manta rays—and spending an afternoon exploring these waters will make your heart feel like it’s soaring through the sky.

You could even take part in some historic shipwrecks during an excursion with Jolly Pirates!
Go kiteboarding or windsurfing: Aruba is known for its strong trade winds, making it a great spot for kiteboarding and windsurfing. Take a lesson together and see who can catch the most air!
Take a hot air balloon ride: Take in the breathtaking views of the island from above as you float in a hot air balloon during the early morning hours. This is a unique and romantic way to start your day together.
