3. Breckenridge
Breckenridge stands out from the bevy of ski towns in the Colorado Rockies thanks to its well-preserved Historic District. Main Street showcases Breckenridge’s new and old Victorian buildings (new construction must blend with the Victorian theme), fostering a uniquely romantic environment. History-loving duos who want to learn more about the town’s past should book a ghost tour. Still, Breckenridge’s main attraction is Breckenridge Ski Resort, which offers a respectable 2,908 skiable acres. Couples don’t need to stay at the resort to go skiing, though, so be sure to compare the Best Hotels in Breckenridge. Some options (think: One Ski Hill Place, A Rock Resort) provide amenities specifically for skiers and snowboarders, such as locker rooms and equipment storage.
4. Sonnenalp Hotel: Vail
Vail’s primary attraction is its unmatched powder snow, but even couples who struggle down the bunny slope will find something to love in this luxurious mountain town. Like many of the Best Hotels in Vail, the storied Sonnenalp Hotel, which has welcomed guests since 1979, mirrors Vail’s versatility. The property sits at the base of Vail Ski Resort, satisfying the needs of powder hounds and relaxation seekers with its convenient location and variety of top-notch amenities, including multiple restaurants, a world-class golf course and a sumptuous spa.
