Sand, Spa, Seduction
It's simple to plan our kind of couple's retreat in St. Petersburg and Clearwater, where barrier islands, and spas that echo their natural elements, offer seclusion that leads to seduction.

Romance and Luxury, Hand in Hand
For the ceremony, choose an intimate spot on the beach or a sunset cruise on the resort's 100-foot luxury yacht. Along the way, the sun-streaked sky and Gulf waters create the postcard-perfect backdrop.

The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino: A True Destination Hotel
With 17 restaurants and lounges, 30,000-square feet of meeting room space, a full-service European-style spa, 22 retail shops and 11 nightclubs in a complex known as Seminole Paradise (whew!) why would you need to leave the premises?.

Beach Bonding in Destin
We ooh-ed and aah-ed as we explored our three-bedroom, three-bath condominium rental and discovered the spacious living room with plush sofas and the 475-square-foot balcony overlooking the water.

Self-Renewal in Safety Harbor
In total, all 175 guest rooms have been renovated with new decor and furnishings, new lighting, pillow-top beds, the softest of linens and updated amenities in the bath and dressing areas.

Five Ways to Live it Up in Fort Myers
Enjoy an intimate, moonlit dinner on the beach, a couples massage and a bottle of Dom Perignon, all part of the Sensual Sanibel Sunset package.

St. Augustine is for Honeymooners
Rent a private coach and take a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride though the historic district and along the bayfront, past the fabled Bridge of Lions. Snuggle closer as the setting sun dips below beautiful St. Augustine Bay.

Find Your Groove in the Grove
The two-story spa also features a steam room and outdoor spa with waterfall that overlooks Biscayne Bay, so arrive early or plan to stay on after your treatment.

Daytona Luxe
Iron security gates guard the restored home and its regally appointed guest accommodations (think cedar-lined closets, antique furnishings and gold-plated bathroom fixtures), all within walking distance of the beach.

Healing Waters
I lost myself in the feel of the water swishing around me, the sunlight on my upturned face and the quiet you can only experience when your ears are under water.

Life After Golf
By the time your companion finishes getting loofahed, wrapped and spoiled within an inch of his or her life, you can easily fit in 18 holes.

Nurturing Vacations
Almost in disbelief, we see scores, then hundreds, of birds in flight, heading for the rookery, straight over our boat. Snowy egrets; great blue herons; roseate spoonbills with their unmistakable pink plumes.

Paradise for Two
The bedroom opened to a spacious balcony with a clear view of the beach. We were so close to the ocean we could taste the salt.

Fantasy Islands
It's a place where nothing is too extravagant when it comes to wowing your partner. As the Resort reminds, "all you have to do is ask."

Later that evening, Gatsby-esque murals and saltwater aquariums, along with our three waiters - Birk, Ben and Don - greeted Meghan and I at The Maritana Grille.

Florida's Classic Spas
Be on time! Arriving late is a breach of spa etiquette. Allow 20 - 30 minutes to check in and change. It's a girl-thing, right? Absolutely not! Most spas offer treatments specifically designed for men.

The Good Life
With 10 percent of the ExxonMobil Five Star and AAA Five Diamond Award winners in Florida, opulence and supreme comfort is never far away in the Sunshine State.

Cabana For Two
We feed each other the savory, pepper-crusted petite veal rack and sensual butter-poached Florida lobster tail, dipping each in a menagerie of sauces.

A Shore (or Off-Shore) Thing in Palm Coast
Remote golden-sand beaches and pristine nature preserves dot the shore. Myriad wildlife, from songbirds and shorebirds flying overhead to sea turtles, dolphins and manatees swimming just off the bow, will be your only companions.

Celebrating Sisterhood
We giggled like high school girls as we trolled the hotel's private beach, sipping fruity cocktails, reminiscing and splashing in the crystal blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

Absolutely Famous
The feeling is reinforced as I pass smiling employees in the Don CeSar's hallways. "Good day," each one says, making me feel like the First Lady.

Heat it Up!
The fireplace sits at the foot of the king-sized bed topped with fluffy, feather pillows. It's all just steps from the ocean, where you can lounge, bicycle, fish, sail or kayak.

Puttin' on Airs in Pompano
My fourth floor suite opened onto a spacious living and dining area with dark wood and rattan furniture, and a large balcony. One wing had a bedroom with two double beds, a full bathroom and a washer and dryer.

Romance in the Ancient City
Fountains large and small, full of glittering pennies-turned-wishes, posed next to delicate statuaries and wood-shingled cottages. Chocolatiers and wine purveyors set up shop next to domestic villas with opulent fences.

Big Beach, Big Fun
Whether you're looking for history, eco-tours, live stage shows, music, pampering, elegant dining or high-speed thrills, you'll find it in friendly, accessible Daytona Beach.

The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Miami
I wish I'd seen his expression as his therapist, Sonia, ushered his robed figure from the glass elevator into his private split level suite, drenched in silk hangings, orchids, candles and bowls of flower petals, spices and incense.
