With a little advanced research into everything from intimate restaurants to romantic ski chalets, any winter getaway can quickly become a dreamy escape.

Getting away from it all is the hardest part, once couples are settled into a romantic chalet; the mountains can do the rest.
Indulge in…Everything
Many ski resorts offer visitors a range of options with respect to drinking, dining and entertainment so it’s worth looking into resorts that are specifically geared toward couples. To spice things up why not make reservations at a romantic restaurant or, sip sophisticated cocktails at a cosy bar?
Romance should be about throwing caution to the wind and indulging in all things sumptuous. Look for resorts with spas, and spend a day getting a couples massage or soaking in a hot tub with a bottle of champagne. Sharing intimate moments in indulgent settings is truly the stuff of lasting love.
Consider a Surprise
If you’re looking to add a bit of mystery or excitement to a romantic ski holiday, why not plan a small (or large) surprise for your significant other? Lots of resorts offer sleigh rides or other romantic trips; the perfect evening activity before sitting down to a delicious meal.

Escaping to a picturesque ski resort is, in itself a pretty romantic gesture. For couples looking to up the ante and create a memorable and magnificent getaway, be sure to do some research ahead of time, to maximise the wow factor and truly pamper one another.
Getting warm and cosy in a winter wonderland is the perfect way to rekindle an old flame, or simply stoke one that’s already going strong.
