If you’re thinking of getting down on bended knee, you’re no doubting weighing up all the options for a perfect setting. For many, this means jetting off to somewhere romantic and fabulous, such as a beach shoreline, or infamous tourist spot.

Whether you choose to whisk your lover away to a luxury villa in Ibiza, Paris bolthole, or a Tuscan countryside retreat, here’s some of our favourite romantic far-flung destinations for popping the question.

There can be no greater setting for a seaside proposal than from the comfort and privacy of your own beachside abode. The archipelago of coral islands, also known as the Turks & Caicos, is home to some of the most stunning picture-perfect beaches.

Here you can find a Turks & Caicos villa for rent tucked away on a private strip of beach. With just the waves crashing and turquoise blue waters for company, it’s one of the most alluring spots in the world for getting engaged.

As anyone who has ever visited Ibiza will tell you, the island has a majestic quality and spiritual side to it. This makes it the perfect setting for proposals, weddings and humanist ceremonies.

There are plenty of magical spots on the island for choosing your moment. The sunsets at Café del Mar are some of the most spectacular in the world – especially on private yacht. Then there’s the clubs, beaches and clifftop mountains.

For something more private, a luxury Ibiza villa rental is a popular choice. With infinity pools and views across the Mediterranean, it’s perfect for creating lasting memories. And when it’s time to celebrate, there’s no end of great choices from Pacha to Bora Bora!

Love is always in the air in Paris. In fact, the Eiffel Tower is one of the most famous landmarks in the world to ask for your lover’s hand in marriage – with approximately 7,000 and 10,000 proposals a year taking place here.

It’s also a wonderful destination for igniting romance, with beautiful bridges, world-famous galleries and cute corner cafes for watching the world go by. Stroll hand-in-hand with your partner and enjoy great food and drink. It’s a city you’ll fall in love with in oh so many ways.

Italy is the leading destination for international weddings, and has long been associated with love. Of them all, Tuscany in particular is one of the most spellbinding cities you can choose for asking a loved one for their hand in marriage.

With its breathtaking landscape, stunning scenery and spectacular coast, it’s easy to see why it attracts couples seeking solace. Plus, as the home of many famous artworks and artists, it’s hard not to get swept up in the romance of everything Tuscany has to offer.

The perfect finish for your proposal is a Tuscan villa to sweep your loved one away to. Here you can set the perfect scene for the proposal of your dreams – beautiful views, first-class food and drink, and luscious lawns and gardens all to yourselves.
