These resorts in sun-dappled destinations are world’s most romantic hotels

They may be spread out across all corners of the earth, but the properties which made TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Awards for most romantic hotels share a common theme: they’re ripe for nookie. Nine out of 10 properties are located in hot, sun-dappled destinations -- think Greece, Aruba, and the Maldives -- while a lone British cottage managed to sneak its way onto the list. Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort Aruba, Palm-Eagle Beach in Aruba in southern Caribbean Sea tops the list of most-desired romantic destination. (AFP)
