The Pacific North West is known for rain, outdoorsy activities, and fishing. Not exactly the most ideal place for a romantic getaway. However, in these hidden gems in Western Washington you will find yourself falling in love to the pitter patter of rain drops.
1.) The Inn at the Market, located just across the street from Pikes Place Market in Seattle, is the perfect romantic getaway for couples. With breath taking views of Puget Sound or the city, you won't find yourself wanting to leave the room. A stocked mini bar, room service and a flat screen television offer the perfect entertainment for you and your loved one. The roof top offers a spectacular view of the water front as well, perfect for a photo opportunity with the Pikes Place sign, and the big wheel on the pier.
2.) The Salish Lodge located literally on Snoqualmie Falls is perfect for a weekend getaway. Not only is the Salish Lodge on top of the water fall, but it has so many great amenities. The lodge has a spa, two fine dining restaurants, and hiking around the facility. The lodge also makes a great venue to get married. This perfect little oasis in the mountains is perfect for the couple who wants to get away from the craziness of the city and just take in the beauty of the Earth.
3.) This may sound unusual, but a treehouse hotel is perfect for getting some quality time with your significant other. Located in the woods of Issaquah, the Treehouse Point resort is a unique opportunity for a romantic night. Each treehouse is unique, and only includes a bed, some chairs and shelves. Some include a private bathroom, while others are shared with other treehouses. If you are always getting annoyed with the chaos of electronics and want to be one with nature with your lover, then this is the perfect place.
4.) For an intimate water front weekend away, stay in the Hotel Bellwether located in Bellingham Washington. Sophisticated and quaint, this hotel offers romantic rooms each with their own fireplace and jetted tub. Take a stroll down the charming town of Bellingham, and take in the beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. The hotel even offers a luxurious light house suite.
5.) The Villa in Tacoma Washington gives you the opportunity to travel to Italy without actually traveling to Italy. The old fashioned Italian bed and breakfast offers five different rooms with romantic features such as a private verandah and large soaking tubs. Of course the inn serves breakfast, so you can enjoy an authentic Italian escape without having to travel out of the United States.
