Finding romance on the Island of Romance
There’s perhaps no other holiday so fraught with expectations and implications as St. Valentine’s Day. For more than 200 years, Feb. 14 has been celebrated as the day of love, but more recently, those who are loved have come to expect a bit more than a Hallmark card and protestations of undying devotion.
With its long reputation as the Island of Romance, Santa Catalina Island comes to the rescue as the perfect Southern California romantic getaway. Booking a surprise –or otherwise — getaway to Catalina will leave your beloved with warm fuzzy feelings that are bound to last for months.
Romantic walks, inspiring vistas and new experiences to discover together are just a few of the many romantic activities you’ll find in Avalon. You’ll also find romantic Catalina Island dining, great nightlife and all the usual trappings of Valentine’s Day like roses and chocolates.
This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Friday and President’s Day is the following Monday, making a long weekend getaway the perfect way to celebrate your love. Catalina Island Vacation Rentals is making your getaway planning even easier – couples that spend the weekend with us will receive a bottle champagne. You’ll find that champagne is just perfect for toasting the spirit of romance that led you to book a Catalina Island getaway in the first place.
