Imagine lunching along Lake Louise, horseback riding side by side and enjoying a magical birds-eye view on a private helicopter tour. Plus, with cozy nights in splendid properties like the Fairmont Banff Springs or Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, your Banff getaway will be impossible to forget.

Stay in a heritage-building-turned-boutique-hotel in the heart of Charlottetown. The Great George’s charming guestrooms make for the perfect retreat in between a scenic driving tour of Canada’s littlest island.

“You are my sunshine” is high praise indeed! Perfectly situated only a short ferry ride outside the city, the Sunshine Coast sets the scene for romance with gorgeous properties like Rock Water Secret Cove Resort and Painted Boat Resort Spa & Marina.

You had me at yeehaw. Embrace your inner harlequin romantic and plan a stay at La Reata Ranch with your favourite dude. You’ll snuggle up by the campfire, enjoy views of rolling golden hills and ride off into the sunset together every night.

Meet me in QC. This gorgeous city truly has it all. Whether you’re rendezvousing at the Fairmont Chateau Frontenac, surrounded by cobblestones or hiding away in a Repère Boréal cabin for two, surrounded by trees, take your date night to the next level. Bike tours, whale watching excursions, foodie trips — it’s all here!

You don’t always have to make the Muskoka trip a family affair. The private lakeside cottages and adults-only resorts here provide the perfect excuse to leave the kids at home. Boat, barbeque and bum around to your heart's content. You deserve it!

You can’t go to the moon and back for your love, but you can go to the edge of the world. Fogo Island Inn will show you how. Thoughtfully built so you can give some love to the environment, too, this one-of-a-kind property pops with amazing dining, Instagrammable accommodations and plenty of diversions to enjoy together.

If you love the beauty of Niagara Falls, but not so much the full-tilt energy of candy-coloured Clifton Hill, head instead to Niagara-on-the-Lake for some much-needed respite (and wine)! Everything about this sleepy town inspires romance: the iconic accommodations, beautiful river tours, horse-drawn carriage rides and, of course, private wine tours.

Visit Whitecap Dakota Unceded Territory in the scenic South Saskatchewan River Valley Basin, where you’ll find Dakota Dunes Resort. Enjoy a mouthwatering farm-to-table menu, leisurely golfing at Saskatchewan’s top-ranked 18-hole course, and test your luck with a little blackjack and baccarat at the casino.

Will you cycle, stroll or paddle around this beautiful city? Vancouver’s the perfect getaway for any time of year, with dozens of activities happening both outdoors and in. Gawk at the views along the Sea to Sky Highway to Whistler, where you’ll be met with slopes, sips, spas and so much more.

In the midst of Canada’s only desert — surrounded by trails, hills and vineyards — Nk'Mip Spirit Ridge offers a peaceful oasis for both heart and soul. At this all-suites resort, detoxifying mud wraps, wine tastings and visits to the Nk’Mip Desert Cultural Centre are a must!

You might think you’re getting away from it all, but once the waves carry you to the shores of Haida Gwaii, you’ve realized that you’ve only just found it. Take the visitor’s pledge to respect and follow the Haida ways of being, then experience the beauty of Haida Gwaii’s air, ocean, land and people. Whether you’re relaxing in the luxurious Haida House, watching humpback whales breaching, or snacking at all the local restaurants and food trucks, this trip will be like no other.

Imagine stepping out of your private riverside cottage to uninterrupted views of whales migrating along the St. Lawrence river. This magical scene takes place in Vacances Essipit, a tranquil collection of cottages, campgrounds and condo-hotels all perfectly located for outfitting trips, sea kayaking and more.

Why stop at just 5 stars? Feast your eyes on the skies with guided stargazing tours at Trout Point eco-lodge, hidden away in the UNESCO-listed Nova Scotia biosphere reserve. You and your sweetheart can sweat it out in the outdoor barrel sauna and wood-fired hot tub, then toast the perfect getaway with award-winning wines over a four-course gourmet dinner.

Established and lovingly maintained since 1889, The Algonquin Resort in St. Andrews is a Canadian staple when it comes to seaside escapes. Go for a dip at Katy’s Cove beach, chow down on chowder and lobster at Braxton’s, and rent a pair of bicycles to explore the Maritime town at your own pace.

Looking for a fresh take? Find it in this one-of-a-kind boutique getaway filled with foraging tours and gourmet breakfasts (brought to you by the free-range hens on the property). In the summer and early autumn seasons, guests can experience a farm-to-table journey of epic proportions.
