Many know Branson for its family attractions and world-class shows, but many fail to realize that Branson is also a city of romance. It's easy to arrange a vacation plan to wow the socks off of even a die-hard romantic, while staying within realistically financial boundaries (making the night or weekend more enjoyable for whoever ends up paying for it).
Romantic Lodging in Branson, Missouri
The true underlying key to creating a romantic weekend in Branson lies within picking the correct hotel. We have several suggestions for several different romantic types. If you're into the slightly exotic, slightly funny, slightly quirky, and certainly sexy, try the Settle Inn. Its 32 different theme rooms feature everything from a rampantly popular jungle room to a golf course. Or for comfortable elegance with a romantic Victorian twist, the Gazebo Inn offers the ultimate in relaxation with extensive oak woodwork and ample bed space. For special occasions, ask for the Jacuzzi Suite, which also has a love-seat sitting area and a large marble whirlpool Jacuzzi. The romantic honeymoon suite offers the same, along with a private balcony and luxurious Victorian D'cor.
Romantic Shows in Branson, Missouri
Although many of the shows bring an aspect of romance, several stand out. Andy Williams' Moon River Theater will woo any older romantic woman who swooned for Breakfast at Tiffany's or just Andy Williams' rich soothing voice. From the music to the dancing, the show offers wholesome entertainment at reasonable prices. For extravagant entertainment and the romance and pageantry of the past, going to a dinner and show at the Dixie Stampede is a must. Little is more romantic than a moonlit walk along a classic-styled showboat. The Showboat Branson Belle is a world-class attraction that oozes romance, and is an excellent choice to highlight a romantic weekend.
