The Vacationeer

If you and your partner need an escape just the two of you, Hilton Grand Vacations has four great escape ideas. Here are our favorite Caribbean vacation spots for couples. 

Barbados

Stay: Hilton Grand Vacations at The Crane

If you are searching for a combination of white sand beaches, cultural sites, and incredible cuisine, travel to the east side of the Caribbean to the historic island of Barbados.

This charming Caribbean island in the West Indies might be small in size, but provides a long list of things to do along its shores. 

Hilton Grand Vacations at The Crane is the perfect resort to consider when planning your Caribbean getaway. Founded as the first hotel in Barbados in 1887, The Crane offers all the comforts of home. It’s nestled on 40 sprawling acres of beachfront property featuring a treasure trove of amenities for the ultimate beach lover’s vacation.

When you first arrive, book a couples massage in the Serenity Spa, followed by dinner at one of the resort’s seven restaurants and bars. At the resort, spend your vacation relaxing together in the cascading cliff-side pool complex. Or choose to walk through tranquil gardens, play a game or two of couples tennis, and enjoy a cocktail on the rooftop terrace. Off property, explore the island’s historic plantations, rum factories, Ragged Point Lighthouse, and even swim with resident turtles in the island’s welcoming waters. 

Since you are researching Caribbean vacations for couples, we recommend a splurge on the Residences by the Sea condos at The Crane, offering ocean views of majestic Crane Beach. 

Saint Lucia

Stay: Harbor Club St. Lucia, Curio Collection by Hilton

Set in the Gros Islet quarter on the northwest coast, Harbor Club St. Lucia, Curio Collection by Hilton provides a laid-back getaway. It is located near St. Lucia’s best beaches, attractions, and nightlife.

There are six restaurants and lounges on the property where the cuisine includes sushi, stone-fired pizza, Italian, and Caribbean comfort food. Be sure to treat yourselves to a bit of pampering at the resort spa, and lay by one or all of the four outdoor pools.

Off property, enjoy hiking together to old military forts, explore the greenery of the island, and book a sunset cruise.

Why is Saint Lucia one of the best Caribbean vacations for couples? Its beautiful beaches, and famous lush tropical landscape makes St. Lucia a favorite. 

Puerto Rico

Stay: Caribe Hilton

Officially debuting it’s $150 million restorations after a 15-month closure, the Caribe Hilton is an iconic hotel in San Juan. Set on a secluded peninsula with 17 acres of lush foliage, this San Juan resort is situated between historic Old San Juan and the Condado area of San Juan.

Book a romantic ocean-view suite with a separate living space and balcony, so you and your partner can sip Pina Coladas overlooking the sea.

While on property, enjoy sunrise and sunset walks along secluded beaches, swim in multiple resort pools, and spend time in the spa, hammock garden, and bird sanctuary.

The resort is adjacent to Paseo Caribe with plenty of options for romantic dinners and live entertainment.

Aruba

Stay: Hilton Aruba Caribbean Resort & Casino

Escape to a newly renovated paradise resort at Hilton Aruba Caribbean Resort & Casino. Spend your time together on the beach learning to scuba dive or choose to have a bit of fun playing tables at the resort’s casino. Bliss out at the beachfront spa, sip a daiquiri by two sparkling pools complete with waterfalls and a lagoon and enjoy each other’s company at world-class restaurants.

Tip: Book a table under the outdoor torch lights on the beach.

Off property, Aruba has miles of breathtaking white-sand beaches, and crystal-blue waters, perfect for snorkeling and diving.
