most romantic marriott property in the US

Would anyone care to make suggestions for the most romantic Marriott group property in the us (ie anywhere that wouldn't require a passport, so hawaii, usvi, etc included).

Suggestions could be for a property overall, or a special room at a property.

TIA

What is your idea of romantic? Food? Spa? View? Adventure?

My first thoughts go to a property in a wine region like The Lodge at Sonoma - especially if you get a cottage - but sure others would tend towards a Hawaii or USVI property. Or a NYC /other city high end experience.

The Sheraton Times Square can have definite Stockholm Syndrone effects.

More conventionally, I really appreciate the Oceanfront rooms of the old building at the Mauna Kea.

as your question implies, different people might see my question differently. so as to get the most broad field of responses I dont want to limit my question. If you feel like naming a specific property for any reason, please do.

The garden island in Hawaii= Kawaii.
And the weekend football games are on early in the morning & done midday, thus beach fun in the afternoon & evening.

I've never seen more romance than in the geriatric conga line and slow dancing in the lobby nightly at the Moana Surfrider - makes me feel #alone ;-)

I like the wine country idea, we have stayed at that Marriott in Sonoma and also the Westin Verasa in Napa - combine it with a lunch on the Wine Train, they have one-ways that end with a tour of one of the castle-like wineries.

I'm also dorkier than most here and I like the San Antonio Riverwalk, I haven't been to the Cloudveil in Jackson Hole but we thought the Tetons were very romantic. We also like New Orleans a lot so maybe the Ritz Carlton there?

You seem to want a beach vacation since you also mentioned Hawaii, USVI, but thought I'd suggest some non-beach places.

If special room is in the cards, then I would second the Moana Surfrider. While not a huge fan of Waikiki, their Penthouse Ocean Suite has got to be one of the coolest rooms weve ever stayed in. We didnt want to leave the room!

If skiing (or apres skiing) is your love language, the St Regis Deer Valley and Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch should be on the short list

I like Marriott Wentworth by the Sea in New Hampshire where The Portsmouth Peace Treaty was signed in 1905.

I also like The Inn at Bay Harbor on Lake Michigan.
