Virginia is home to so many showstopping wineries, it’s hard to know which one to pick! Williamsburg Winery is the first stop on the Colonial Virginia Wine Trail, and is lauded for its gorgeous grounds and a number of delicious varietals. From award-winning reds to best-selling white wines, Williamsburg Winery has everything you could possibly want. This is the largest vineyard in the state of Virginia and includes what we wish more wineries did—FOOD (as in meals!). The Gabriel Archer Tavern and Café Provençal are two dining venues you won’t want to miss, and include some very yummy wine pairings. The attentive and knowledgeable staff will make you and your partner feel special and well cared for. Cheers to romance!
Once you know the ingredients, romance is easy! Two that are a must for a romantic-filled evening in summer are sunsets and open water. Enter Yorktown Sailing Charters’ Yorktown Scenic Sunset Sail, the perfect affordable choice for a river cruise. Bask in golden rays on a schooner and sail the peaceful York River as you watch the sun go down with your sweetheart. Book here.
Williamsburg is home to many fine restaurants, but one of the most romantic is Le Yaca. With fabulous menus and a candlelit ambiance that walks the line between elegant and cozy, it’s an easy choice for a couple looking to connect and enjoy each other’s company. Reservations are recommended.
At the end of the day, come back to a home-away-from-home that makes you both feel like royalty. At King’s Creek, the Cottages are a perfect choice for you and your partner, with charming features like welcoming front porches with copper roof details, gas fireplaces and jetted tubs. We believe in making time for romance, and Williamsburg has everything you need to connect with your special someone and make your Williamsburg date unforgettable.
