Amtrak romantic trips

 I am longing for a romantic Amtrak trip towards Seattle or LA.  I have actually never been alone with a sweetheart on either of these trips!  This may be a great time as the trips wontbeas crowded.  

Mauna Lani resort, big island

Thank you for this recommendation!  I visited the big island 20 years ago and I have such sweet and romantic memories!  I recommend visiting the volcanoe, it is spectacular!  I have never stayed at the Maina Lani Resort but a friend highly recommends it with his recent visit!

Hilton waikolea, big 🏝

 I went to the Hilton Waikolea back in 2001 on the big island of Hawaii!  It was gorgeous and magical.  At night it looked like and elf world with magical lights and pools!  It was the kind of resort that once you are there, you don’t want to leave.

Couples on the Coast dining- Cafe Beaujolais in Mendocino, CA

 Cafe' Beaujolais is a California French Restaurant which opened in 1968.  It is located in Mendocino, CA on the Northern California Coast.  It gained prominence when Chef Margaret Fox purchased the restourant in 1977 and began serving breakfast and lunch, turning Cafe' Beaujolais into the culinary destination that it remains today!

In 2021, the Nicholson House joins the Beaujolais family, making Cafe Beaujolais an all in one destination with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and accommodations.

I have never stayed at the Nicholson House, but I love Cafe Beaujolais!
