The 8 Best Romantic Suites for a Sexy Vacation
Have an anniversary coming up? Or just want to spice things up with your partner? Booking a hotel room with a cozy bed, scenic views, and two-person hot tub is a tried-and-true way to dial up the romance. While an adult-only resort or intimate boutique are good options, some hotels make rooms blatantly geared toward couples by calling them Romantic Suites. So instead of staying in a boring standard room, opt for one that has romance in the name -- it basically ensures you'll have a sexy getaway. Take a look at our favorite romantic suites (and one Lovers Suite, because, close enough) and get inspired to take that steamy vacation.

Diamond Cliff is a quiet sanctuary; its three swimming pools set it apart from other area resorts. The atmosphere is traditional Thai, simple but lush, with plenty of local character. The resort has been around for 26 years and shows some wear, but rooms are clean and lovely, with pretty Thai fabrics, gold leaf, and lots of ornate wood. For a couple-centric stay, the Romantic Suite has a lovely canopy bed, atmospheric lighting, and a whirlpool tub overlooking the ocean.

The Grand Hotel Savoia, built in 1897, has a grand, old-world atmosphere that fits its name, along with some quirky, modern touches that include hot tubs on a rooftop terrace and themed suites. The Romantic Suite has pretty crushed velvet chairs, a cozy bed, and delicate curtains. Their Secret Suite, with a large round daybed and rose color scheme, is another sexy option. The hotel offers good value for one of few true luxury properties in the city.
The 320-room mid-range Ocean Maya Royale is an all-inclusive adult-only resort located on a private beach, 15 minutes from the center of Playa del Carmen. The resort is quiet and colorful, with plenty of sports and games, as well as ample opportunity for chilling out by the ocean or one of the two pools. The on-site restaurants offer a variety of world cuisines, and reservations are never required at the a la carte dining rooms. Rooms are clean and modern. The Romance Suite is decorated in a black, white, and gray color scheme, and has a hot tub for two.
The 12 rooms at the upscale La Torretta hotel are beautiful, with such elegant touches as four-poster beds and tall floral headboards. With a free evening aperitif and a couple of terraces to watch the sun set, it's a particularly good pick for a romantic stay. While all rooms are gorgeous, the Romantic Junior Suite is particularly lovely, with a four-poster bed, floral detailing, an open mosaic-tiled tub, and scenic view of the water. The bed-and-breakfast is located on the church square in Manarola, one of five fishing villages that make up Cinque Terre.
With only 90 suites, the Zoetry Paraiso offers a romantic, wellness-centric boutique experience in the Mayan Riviera. The Lovers Suite is decorated with Mediterranean-style furnishings, a chic shower, and large terrace overlooking the water. The pool area and beach are relaxed with double-wide lounge chairs (perfect for couples), and the on-site dining keeps the resort's wellness theme alive with delicious, healthy meals. Included amenities not standard at most all-inclusive resorts, such as a "welcome" bottle of tequila, daily bottle of champagne, a one-hour Catamaran sunset sail, three-times-daily maid service, and private chauffeured airport transfers, make this resort a standout among Puerto Morelos' finest properties

With 372 rooms, Royal Turquesa is the more expensive, adult-only section of the massive all-inclusive Palladium complex, and has a more peaceful setting than its three neighbors. Notable aspects here include the swim-up suites and a prime stretch of private beach dotted with lounge chairs, hammocks, and daybeds. The main pool is smack in the center of the resort and has built-in lounge chairs and a swim-up bar. The Romance Suites have canopy beds, stocked minibars (soda, water, beer, and liquor), jetted tubs, and of course, rose petals. For an even sexier stay, book one that's a swim-up.

The 674-room Grand Palladium Bavaro is spread over spacious grounds (guests also have access to two sister properties) offering 15 bars, five buffets, and eight restaurants. Walking shoes are recommended, but family-friendly amenities, lower prices than some neighbors, and renovated rooms are the big draws. Romance Suites are closer to the beach and have large Mayan showers on an outdoor terrace attached to the already huge bathrooms. The swim-up suites facing the beach (with a private terrace and private swim-up pool) are the most romantic option, though.
