Best Romantic Vacation

Seville, Spain, one of the most romantic and historic cities in Europe. It’s been the tireless muse of poets, novelists, painters, and playwrights including Byron and Hemingway.

Honeymoon here and stay in a converted traditional Moorish style flat like Alcoba del Rey de Sevilla. Nostalgia for the Moorish civilization of Al-Andalus is the fantastic theme of this hotel, set in an old palace. Behind high exterior walls a Mudejar dream-land awaits.

Stop for eats at the Corral del Agua, a picturesque and pleasant restaurant flanked by the outer walls of the Alcazar and set amidst the stone and greenery of an enclosed courtyard. The secluded setting of this restored 18th century palace makes it an ideal spot for romantic dinner or just a respite from travel duties.
