Let's face it - relationships are a lot of work. You have to make a constant effort to keep the fires of romance burning. Romantic gestures can be as simple as a short love note on the fridge, or as extravagant as a trip to a remote island getaway.
Rangali Island, The Maldives

The Conrad Maldives Hotel sits on its own private atoll, called Rangali Island. Roughly 1,000 of the 1,192 islets of this island nation are uninhabited. If you don't find romantic seclusion there, you won't find it anywhere.

Molokai, Hawaii

There aren't any international hotel chains here, which is precisely why couples come for a rekindling of romance. Take long walks to the remote waterfalls, go on donkey rides or simply idle the hours away frolicking on the beach.

Barbuda, Caribbean

For truly deserted beaches, this 68 square mile island is the place to go. Coco Point Lodge is one of the few high-end hotels on Barbuda. It sits on its own 164-acre peninsula with unique pink-sand beaches.

Laucala Island, Fiji

With only 25 cottages on this privately owned South Pacific resort, you are assured of a very special island holiday. The resort has the entire island to itself. Each cottage has its own private pool, and outdoor hot tub. The lagoon pool has man-made “islands” big enough for two.

Pamalican Island, The Philippines

Amanpulo is the only resort on this private island. It has 40 secluded villas along pristine white sand beaches. You can walk around the island in less than two hours whilst looking out for baby sharks and sea turtles.

There is something about being alone together that makes couples more affectionate with each other. This is why the very best romantic holidays happen on beautiful, remote islands all across the world.
