Bed and breakfasts make intimate retreats for anniversaries.
Anniversaries are special milestones that many couples take the time to celebrate. Celebrating is often a means of remembering and appreciating the time spent together as well as creating new memories for the future. Anniversary vacations are a memorable method of celebrating, and, depending on a couple's budget, vacations vary from inexpensive and modest to luxurious and extravagant.
Bed and Breakfasts
For couples on a budget, spending a weekend at a nearby bed and breakfast can create that feeling of an intimate escape for two without breaking the bank. Whether it's in a hometown or a few hours away, by removing themselves from the stresses and routine of daily life, partners are able to focus on their relationship and renew the excitement of sharing experiences together. The American Bed and Breakfast Association (ABBA) website lists a directory of various bed and breakfasts in the United States while also providing pictures and descriptions.
