It’s no surprise that Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora has topped the list as the most romantic hotel on Trip Advisor’s “Top 10 Hotels for Romance in the World.” I was lucky enough to visit the beautiful island of Bora Bora on my honeymoon and romance is definitely the word i would use to describe this surreal setting. Turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and palm trees as far as the eye can see all help to set the scene for the most romantic vacation you’ll ever take.
Take a look with us at some of The Discovery Club’s most romantic hotels in the world…

Jade Mountain Resort- Soufriere, St. Lucia
Rising majestically above the 600 acre beach front resort of Anse Chastanet, Jade Mountain St.Lucia is a cornucopia of organic architecture celebrating St Lucia’s stunning scenic beauty.
Architect owner Nick Troubetzkoy has expanded upon his philosophy of building in harmony with Caribbean nature in his creation of Jade Mountain St.Lucia. The bold architectural design – individual bridges leading to exceptional infinity pool sanctuaries and rugged stoned-faced columns reaching towards the sky – makes Jade Mountain St.Lucia one of the Caribbean’s most mesmerizing resort experiences.
Andronis Luxury Suites- Santorini, Greece

Reflecting traditional Aegean architecture and overlooking the island’s volcanic crater or caldera, the Andronis Luxury Suites represents the most luxurious, dreamy escape in a Mediterranean setting beyond compare. The multi-villa property gently cascades down the side of this unparalleled Greek island, forming part of the traditional landscape yet with Zen-like sophistication and discrete luxury that transform these 22 award-winning suites into a lifetime experience for its elite visitors.
Elements of minimalist design combine with stunning island sunsets, while multi-level balconies blend with a predominantly white assortment of furniture and finishes, awoken occasionally by touches of red and blue to tickle the senses.
