Immersive nature and Atlantic calm for a romantic getaway

Nestled among the verdant hills of the Costa da Morte, just 68 km from A Coruña, Cabañas de Canduas is the perfect retreat for those seeking to disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature—and with their partner. This small rural complex, built with recycled wood and sustainable techniques, blends seamlessly into the Galician landscape, offering an intimate, peaceful, and profoundly authentic experience.

Each of its four cabins, nestled into the hillside, guarantees privacy, unparalleled views over the estuary, and that feeling of being suspended between the forest and the sea. From the balcony—complete with a swing, a spring-fed jacuzzi, and a breakfast basket filled with local products—time seems to stand still. Inside, the fire, the wood, and the silence create the ideal setting for an unpretentious romantic getaway.

The surroundings invite you to move slowly. Everything here reminds you that calm can also be a form of luxury. And since every Galician getaway deserves a tribute to flavor, two must-visit stops are Mar de Ardora in As Revoltas and Casa Mosqueira in Pazos.

The Cabañas de Canduas are the kind of place that redefines the concept of a romantic getaway: silence, landscape and proximity to the sea as pillars of a refuge for two.

Urdaibai, an experience to enjoy as a couple.

High in the hills of Bermeo, surrounded by the unspoiled beauty of the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve , Hotel Nafarrola is a haven where time slows down and tranquility becomes palpable. A lovingly restored 17th-century Basque farmhouse , it now offers an intimate, sustainable space deeply connected to nature.

With just eight rooms, the hotel blends the rustic charm of stone and wood with a contemporary and tranquil design . Whirlpool tubs, large windows overlooking the forest, and details that invite you to reconnect with what's essential. Everything here is designed for couples to enjoy.

The experience is completed at the Rola Restaurant , where chef Gaizka Goikoetxea Larrauri interprets Basque cuisine with respect for its origins: seasonal products, haute cuisine techniques and only four tables that guarantee an experience as intimate as the place itself.

From Navarre, the days open up to explore the Urdaibai Reserve: the forests of the Oma, the cliffs of Bermeo, the hamlets that smell of rain and firewood.

An ideal setting for romantic getaways in any season, where luxury is not measured in things, but in the possibility of stopping.
