Quarantining with a romantic parter is pretty great sometimes, but it's natural to
start feeling a little cooped up at some point. And when that happens, the best antidote is to take
a road trip to a romantic Airbnb.
Hitting the open road is a great way to reconnect, even if you're visiting a spot that's only an hour's drive away. And
it's the safest way to travel right now. It's just you, your partner, the open road — and at the end of your trip, a cozy little getaway pour deux.
Pack all of the essentials —
face masks , hand sanitizer, and disinfectant wipes. And keep in mind that wherever you go, you'll want to aim to uphold the
CDC's coronavirus restrictions , which currently still recommend measures such as social distancing. Also smart: Keep tabs on a
coronavirus-tracking map , and proceed with caution. If cases have been on the uptick your area, or the area you're traveling to, follow local guidances — even if that means opting to stay home and stay indoors for a little longer.
If you can hit the road, though, once you get to your romantic Airbnb, it won't matter whether you default to your usual quarantine routine (
hello, Netflix ) or do something totally new-to-you-two — the setting will make everything feel fresh.

Death Valley House, Desert Gold
Another desert destination is the Death Valley House.
