Cape Cod & the Islands welcome romantic vacationers

A suite with a fireplace, and perhaps a whirlpool tub, in a Cape Cod inn that dates back to the early 18th century. Lounging by a solar-heated saltwater pool or taking a beach chair and umbrella down to the bay beach. Spending the evening on an idyllic sunset beach or by a crackling fire outdoors at the inn. Are you in a romantic frame of mind yet? That’s the atmosphere at the Lamb and Lion Inn, set on four lovely acres a short stroll from charming Barnstable Village, 10 minutes to island ferries and Hyannis’ nightlife. Ask about the Truro Vineyards Package, and flowers, a bottle of wine, gourmet cheeses and munchies and inn-made chocolate-covered strawberries will be waiting for you in your luxurious suite.

Your romantic getaway is long overdue! The Ocean Edge Resort & Golf Club can help with that. How does this sound: With the Stay, Play & Spa Package, you have luxe accommodations in The Mansion (very romantic), dinner for two at cozy Balzo’s Pub, a bottle of wine in your room, full-body massages in the relaxing spa – and late checkout. On-site activities include kayaking and paddle boarding, tennis, pickle ball, fitness centers and five swimming pools as well as an 18-hole golf course. Dine on elevated coastal cuisine on a terrace, in a beach bar perched atop the dunes or in the shade on the manicured lawn. Arrange for a private beach fire or just plunk your chairs down on the serenely private Bay Pines Beach.
