I'm not sure where you're traveling from, but if you're on the West Coast, I would definitely recommend the Central Coast of California for a romantic getaway. Moonstone Beach in Cambria sounds like the perfect place for some relaxtion for two busy parents.

Why don't posters tell us what they want in the first place? We're not a bunch of mind readers out here! Alia if you had bothered to tell us some more facts to begin with, you wouldn't have wasted Sarah's time. And it would have been polite to have thanked her rather than just stating that you wanted different info.

I wrote the following post to somebody else, but I think it fits the description of a "romantic getaway".
Message: I really love visiting the Cape and I think you will too. I can't help you with MV, but for a great place to stay on Cape Cod I would recommend a place called the Wood Duck Inn. It's a charming B&B with only three rooms where they bring you breakfast in a basket to your room. It overlooks a cranberry bog that is wonderful to walk around, and the owners could not be more wonderful. It's located in a seaside village called Cataumet, located in Bourne, near the bridge, and it's about a 10-15 minute drive to Falmouth where you would be able to catch a ferry to Martha's Vineyard. I love this area because it really has a country charm feel about it that I don't get where I live. If you call them, tell Dawn and Phil that Tara from South Florida recommended you.

For two wonderful dinner experiences I would recommend the Coonamessett Inn, in Falmouth (508) 548-2300 for an elegent meal in beautiful surroundings, and the Cape Cod Dinner Train in Hyannis. http://capetrain.com
Please feel free to email me directly if I can be of any more help. I'm doing all of the above again in September and I can't wait. To read more about the Wood Duck Inn or the Coonamessett Inn, both are located in "the Upper Cape". here's a website that I find helpful. The Insider's Guide to Cape Cod

My husband and I love the Birches in Rockwood,Maine. It is on Moosehead Lake which is pretty far north. You could stay in a rustic log cabin right on the lake and cook in your cabin or eat in the pretty log dining room with magnificent lake views. For romance, rent a little boat and find a deserted bay to picnic and swim (skinny dip?) The downside for escaping parents is that the Birches does get many families so the dining room may have more kids than you would like. We solve that by eating late.
