Cruise Into Romance This Valentine’s Day With The Gondola Company

If you’re looking for something extra romantic for Valentine’s Day – and by romantic, we mean old-world, cinematic, and worth planning for – The Gondola Company in the Coronado Cays has you covered.

Their Saint Valentino Cruises offer private gondola rides through the canals with all the touches that make it feel special without being over the top.

Private Gondola Rides Through the Coronado Cays

Each cruise is a 50-minute private ride that includes a heart-shaped box of gourmet See’s chocolates and a single red rose. You can bring your own wine or champagne, or purchase a bottle through them to toast the night.

It’s the kind of setting that feels removed from the usual Valentine’s Day rush – quiet, intimate, and genuinely pretty as you drift through the glistening canals.

Add a Live Mandolin Player or Singing Gondolier

If you want to go all in, you can add a dozen roses, a live mandolin player, or a singing gondolier who’ll serenade you in Italian as you float through the waterways. It’s theatrical in the best way – the kind of thing that feels like a scene from a movie but is actually happening to you.

Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, planning a proposal, or just want to do Valentine’s Day differently this year, these upgrades make it memorable.

The Valentino Proposal Cruise

For anyone planning to propose, The Gondola Company offers a Valentino Proposal Cruise that includes Italian Prosecco, gourmet chocolates, a beautiful bouquet of roses, and a professional photographer to capture the moment.

It’s a big swing, but if you’re going to propose on a gondola in the Coronado Cays with a photographer catching it all, at least you’re committing to the romance of it.

Book Early for Valentine’s Weekend

The cruises run for three days around Valentine’s Day, so you’ve got some flexibility if you’d rather avoid the actual Valentine’s Day crowds. That said, spots fill up quickly, so if you’re interested, booking sooner rather than later is the move.

The Gondola Company has been doing this for years, and they’ve figured out how to make it feel special without feeling cheesy.
