We ask the same question year after year: What do you get your partner for Valentine’s Day? Chocolates? Flowers? Revenge on their enemies? While we love the creativity of that last idea, how about a surprise stay at one of these romantic Airbnbs instead?
For secluded cabins where you can do the nasty without any neighbors hearing, to bed and breakfasts loaded with romantic touches, we’ve put together a list of the best romantic Airbnbs for a Valentine’s Day trip.
Don’t forget to pack the edible handcuffs!
16 Romantic Airbnbs for a Bae-utiful Valentine’s Day
1. Honeycrisp Cottage – Putney, Vermont
Is it corny to tell your partner they’re the apple of your eye? Even if you can’t go apple picking in February, you can have an apple-solutely a-peeling time in Putney, Vermont, at the Honeycrisp Cottage for Valentine’s Day.
And don’t worry, you can never be too cheesy with puns during this loving season. At least we don’t think why our last three dates ghosted us?
Sleeps: 4
Book it on Airbnb
2. Luxury Tugboat – Louisa, Virginia
Want to truly get away from it all? Then your best bet is an Airbnb in space where no one can hear you screaming with pleasure all night long. Since NASA doesn’t offer any bed and breakfast options, an Airbnb on the water is the next best thing.
But we’re ready whenever you are, ISS!

3. Unplug Dome – Landers, California
Camping is so 2000 and late. (Just like that saying…but we’re obviously using it ironically. We think.) These days, glamping is all the rage. In this futuristic dome, you can curl up under the stars, sleep in a bed that’s actually comfortable, and ponder why corners even exist.

4. The Pond House – Phillipsport, New York
Have you ever walked into a forest and said, “Hey, I want to rent this!” Well, now you can. The Pond House in Phillipsport, New York, is built upon a whopping 19 private acres, giving you pure seclusion.
And you thought it was fun to walk around your house naked.

5. Highland Escape – Blue Ridge, Georgia
Mountain views? Check. Fireplaces? Check. Hot tub? Check. The only way this romantic Airbnb could get more romantic is if the hot tub was filled with Godiva chocolate.
We’re not saying you shouldn’t try to make that happen anyway. But we also aren’t going to front that cleaning fee. You do you, boo!
Sleeps: 10
Book it on Airbnb
6. Charles Cheney Inn – Manchester, Connecticut
This unique find is a bed and breakfast inside a mansion that was inspired by Mark Twain’s home. It’s giving opulence. It’s giving 1880s luxury. And it’s giving us the motivation to finally finish our novel that’s been 10 years in the making.
After feeding our lover a few chocolate covered strawberries, of course.
Sleeps: 2
Book it on Airbnb
7. Diamond Notch – Lexington, New York
Want to pull a funny prank this Valentine’s Day? Tell your girlfriend you got her a diamond for the holiday…and then take her to the Diamond Notch in Lexington, New York. Will she find it funny? Maybe, maybe not.
But we’re sure she’ll end up liking this secluded, minimalist escape more than jewelry anyway. Right? Right! (Maybe.)
Sleeps: 2
Book it on Airbnb
8. Seaside Lighthouse – Mendocino, California
Okay, so this find isn’t actually a lighthouse. But the Seaside Lighthouse home in Mendocino, California, makes up for its misleading name with spectacular ocean views.
Dine on wine and chocolate while you take in the Pacific Coast. You’ll have a whale of a time. (Disclaimer: You may not actually see whales.)
Sleeps: 2
Book it on Airbnb
9. Granby Lakehouse – Granby, Colorado
If you’re more of a lake person than an ocean person, then you and your Valentine (and six of your closest friends) will love this lake house in Granby, Colorado. With mountain and lake views, this retreat has cozy cabin vibes.
Plus, it’s quiet and private, so the only neighbor you’re likely to see is Nessie’s Lake Granby-living cousin, Granny. Don’t worry, she’s friendly!
Sleeps: 8
Book it on Airbnb
10. Dome House – New Paltz, New York
The Dome House in New Paltz, New York, features a baby grand piano, a hot tub, and 28 acres of private forest. We guess we could say it’s the perfect place for you and your partner to have a little piece of free-dome. Okay, we’re dome…we mean, done!
Sleeps: 8
Book it on Airbnb
11. Stargazer Little Dipper – Terlingua, Texas
It may be called the Little Dipper, but you’ll feel like a big shot when you book this glamping tent for Valentine’s Day. With mountain views and plenty of stargazing opportunities, you’ll love cuddling in this A-frame tent.
Don’t forget to pack your own linens alongside your cozy and warm layers. That edible underwear you were saving for the holiday probably won’t keep you warm enough.
Sleeps: 2
Book it on Airbnb
12. The Inn at Ragged Edge – Chambersburg, Pennsylvania
Forget Valentine’s Day. This year, enjoy a Galentine’s Day with all your best friends at this enormous inn located in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. Once a historic railroad mansion, this nine bedroom manor is absolutely perfect for a girlfriend’s getaway. As long as we don’t have to be in charge of bringing the hairdryer.
Sleeps: 16+
Book it on Airbnb
13. The Lily House – Suffield, Connecticut
Located in a historic and adorable little village, the Lily House in Suffield, Connecticut is a Victorian home turned inn. The rooms inside are as lily-white as the name suggests, so maybe keep the pouring-chocolate-all-over-each-other to a minimum in the pristine bedsheets.
Sleeps: 2
Book it on Airbnb
14. The Hideout at the Rim – Moab, Utah
Looking for a place to get away from the coppers? Book the Bonnie & Clyde Suite in the Hideout at the Rim bed and breakfast in Moab, Utah. Just pretend they lived happily ever after, okay?
Sleeps: 4
Book it on Airbnb
15. 1906 Calumet & Arizona Guest House – Bisbee, Arizona
Located inside a historic mansion, this Arizonan bed and breakfast is a colorful place to stay. It’s surrounded by lush greenery, koi ponds, and even a babbling brook. There’s probably more for us to say, but you’ll just think we’re babbling too. Anyway, it’s romantic, beautiful, and a perfect place to spend Valentine’s Day. And the day after, just to be safe.
Sleeps: 3
Book it on Airbnb
16. Selah Farms B&B – Pikeville, Tennessee
This quaint B&B offers rolling pastures, farm-fresh meals, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors with your lover. You can even spend some time with the horses! But since it’s Valentine’s Day, well, you know what they say — save a horse, ride a cowboy.
