If you’re looking to add a little romance into your life, taking a cruise is a perfect way to start. The views of our vast and mysterious ocean aboard a cruise ship are so breath-taking it practically screams romance! To top it off we have come up with 10 ideas to enhance this already romantic vacation on your next cruise.
Arrange a special surprise in your stateroom ahead of time. You can surprise your loved one with a bottle of champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, or roses. The possibilities are vast and your CruiseExperts.com travel advisor can help with all the details. You can also ask to order a special gift from one of the onboard ship stores and have it wrapped and waiting to open upon arrival.
Roses, Champagne, Chocolates
Plan a couple’s massage. What better way to get the romance started than a couple’s massage? Some cruise lines offer private his and her spa or Jacuzzi rooms for added relaxation and romance. Trust me–a relaxing massage is a great way to get the romance started!

Upgrade to a suite or balcony. Having your own access to the outdoors is a must for added romance. What better way to end the day than a glass of champagne while watching the sunset from your very own private balcony?

Private Tour. Many cruise lines offer private tours of the spas or even a private meeting with the ship’s captain in the bridge. Ask your travel advisor today about private tour options while aboard your cruise.
Bring your own fragrance. Considering candles aren’t allowed aboard cruise ships, essential oils are a great way to add some romantic fragrance. I personally love the smell of roses. I always bring along rose essential oils and dab a few drops on the light bulbs. The heat from the light helps to release this magical smell even after the lights have been turned off. For a little added flare bring some battery operated candles, even though they don’t omit fragrance they’re perfect for setting the mood.
Take a cooking class or dance lessons. Several cruise lines offer both of these options and they are a great way to spend some time together while doing something a little different.

Plan a romantic shore trip. Depending on your personal preference there is always a shore excursion that is sure to bring on the romance. Go horseback riding along the beach or take a hot air balloon ride. Ask your CruiseExperts.com travel advisor for the most romantic options at every port stop destination.
Enjoy the stars. What’s more romantic than a glass of wine while gazing at the stars? Some cruise lines offer special options to enjoy the stars while aboard. The SeaDream Yacht Club even features a sleep under the stars on a Balinese Dream Bed opportunity.

Plan a romantic dinner. Take advantage of the room service and order a romantic meal in your stateroom. Talk to your travel advisor and make reservations for a table for two at a specialty restaurant another evening.
Princess Room Service
Get Professional Photos. Many major cruise lines have a professional photographer on staff. Ask your travel advisor to arrange a photo session while aboard. This is a great way to make sure your romantic vacation is never forgotten.
