Azalea Inn, Savannah, GA: Some say Savannah is the most romantic city in the South. If that’s the case, stay in the most romantic inn in this history-and-passion filled city. Enter and you’ll be transported to a time when verandahs and cocktails in the parlor were the rage. They still are and when added to the luxury adjacent vacation villas, amorous escapes are plentiful here. Evening wine and hors d’oeuvres receptions, three course breakfasts and personalized service are just a few ways innkeepers spoil guests here. www.azaleainn.com

Castle in the Country, Allegan, MI: Because Allegan, MI may not be the first place that comes to mind

when considering an amorous escape, innkeepers here created romance from the ground up. Think

s’mores around a private fire pit, sleighrides in the winter or romantic buggy rides in the warmer months, and hand-in-hand walks along trails throughout the wooded property or a jaunt around the inn’s private lake in a paddle boat or kayak. Nearby Saugatuck offers plenty of shopping and dining adventure and beer lovers will find three microbrews within about a half-hour of the inn.
