1) Pondicherry, Tamil Nadu

Fondly known as ‘Little Paris’, Pondicherry sure does exude the romantic charm that the ‘City of Love’, Paris has to offer.

Stroll through the streets of this city (also known as Puducherry or Pondy), and see the influences of French rule clearly seen in the French Quarter, with its vintage colonial villas and leafy colorful lanes. 

Take a leisure walk along the beach as you feel the light breeze blowing ad take in the picturesque views of the Bay of Bengal.

The place radiates old world vibes everywhere you go- from the colonial French villas to the flea markets, as this coastal city is recognized for its colonial Indian culture and architecture. 

2) Lakshadweep Islands, Kerala

The tranquil cluster of islands making up the Lakshadweep, are the country’s only coral isles with its sandy white beaches lined up with palm trees and overlooking the pure waters of the Arabian Sea.

As it is a part of the same marine mountain range as the Maldives, Lakshadweep Islands offer matchless underwater activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving, etc. 

Having the most romantic beaches of India, it wouldn’t do to go there and not visit places like Kavaratti, Minicoy, Kadmat, Bangaram, and Agatti Islands, which will make you feel worlds away from your regular life. No wonder it is a popular honeymoon destination in India. 

If you’re planning to visit, stay at the Bangaram Island Beach Resort as they offer simple, airy rooms that open directly onto the sands. The place is no less than a literal paradise on Earth.

3) Kumarakom, Kerala

For a quintessentially Keralan charm and to fully engross yourself in the old world romance, you can’t not have the experience on a traditional houseboat.

Experience authentic Keralan cuisine while you sail through the backwaters of Kumarakom; there, the gentle sound of its waters caresses the coconut tree-lined lush green shores.

The whole experience is nothing short of magical. While you’re there, try to book your stay in a houseboat, which is a true must- have. However, there are plenty of options for those who want to stay on land as well.

Book your stay at Taj Bekal Resort & Spa where the Kappil River flows through the resort. It thus provides various activities like fishing, boating, etc., for you to enjoy with your special one and offers elegant rooms with a charming pool and absolutely divine food to devour.

4) Darjeeling, West Bengal

Pretty famous all over India for its tea, this town promises an enchantingly romantic getaway.

Nestled in the Himalayan foothills, Darjeeling conjures an exotic fragrance of tea leaves. Here, curved rows of manicured tea plantations shape the hills into verdant green curves.

To fully experience the dreamy charm of riding through misty mountains in the area, we recommend a ticket for the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway.

5) Havelock, Andaman Islands

Turquoise green waters, silky clean sandy beaches and dozens of diving and snorkeling locations are a common feature of the Havelock Islands.

Romantic beaches abound by the dozen and couples can hire a ferry ride or a moped to get around and explore.
