Once, a friend told me I was “weird” for taking a couple’s vacation to Walt Disney World. I’m perfectly okay with weird! What bothered me was that she didn’t realize just how luxurious, romantic, and “adult” a Disney vacation can actually be.
Disney has a well-earned reputation for being kid-centric. The same world-class service that makes it magical for children makes it an absolute dream for adults. If you’re looking to celebrate Valentine’s Day, or just a romantic February escape, here are five ways. You can experience the sophisticated side of the Mouse.
1. The Ultimate Spa & Deluxe Retreat
For the couple that defines “vacation” as pure relaxation, staying at a Disney Deluxe Resort is a must. This year, lean into the luxury:
Mandara Spa at the Dolphin: For a different kind of vibe, head over to the Mandara Spa. It’s the perfect place to disconnect from the world and reconnect with each other.
2. Tee Time & Tropical Vibes
If your idea of romance involves a little friendly competition on the greens, Disney is a golfer’s paradise. Home to four world-class golf courses, you don’t even have to leave your resort to enjoy the views.
Saratoga Springs & Old Key West: Both resorts offer stunning vistas of the manicured fairways.
3. Savory Sips & Fine Dining
Forget chicken nuggets—February at Disney is for the foodies.
Sangria University: Head to Three Bridges Bar & Grill at Disney’s Coronado Springs for this 90-minute tasting experience. You’ll learn the history of sangria and even craft your own custom blend!
4. The Great Outdoors (With a Touch of Magic)
For couples who want to escape the hustle and bustle, Disney’s “wild” side offers incredible privacy.
Stand-Alone Cabins: The new DVC cabins at Fort Wilderness are a dream. They feature full kitchens, private decks, and even your own laundry facilities. It’s like having a luxury woodsman’s retreat with all the Disney perks.
5. For the Couple on the Run
February is a huge month for the active couple! The runDisney Princess Half Marathon Weekend (late February) brings a unique energy to the parks. There is nothing quite like crossing a finish line together. Afterwards, you can celebrate with a “recovery” day at the pool. Alternatively, enjoy a celebratory dinner at Disney Springs.
