#2 | Bellarine Peninsula

Winery on Bellarine Peninsula - Best Romantic Weekend trips from Melbourne for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: 1 hour 30 minutes

Where to Stay: 

  • Anchor Geelong
  • Barwon Heads Resort
  • Starhaven Retreat

The picture-perfect Bellarine Peninsula is a hidden gem just 90 kilometres southwest of Melbourne. It’s a beautiful sleepy place with a charming laid-back vibe, only 1.5 hours drive from the city, and is possibly one of the most underrated Melbourne weekend getaways!  

The region is dotted with tiny fishing villages and historic seaside towns, each with its own individual character. Couples can stroll hand-in-hand along wide boulevards, visit galleries and vintage shops, admire some of Australia’s oldest buildings, and grab a coffee from one of the many cafes.  

The Bellarine is one of the largest grape-growing regions in Victoria with top-notch wineries offering incredible cold climate wines and spectacular ocean views.  Enjoy a romantic afternoon picnic amongst the vines and soak up panoramic views across the sparkling bay.  

In the evening, hop on board the Q Train an award-winning restaurant that travels along the historic Bellarine Railway for a multi-course degustation feast. Alternatively, enjoy a blues-inspired meal and party the night away on board the Blues Train with live entertainment in four carriages. Then spend the night in a cute B&B, heritage-listed inn, or a grand old hotel.

#3 | Twelve Apostles

Twelve Apostles sea stacks - Romantic Weekend Getaways from Melbourne for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 4 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Southern Ocean Villas
  • Port O’ Call Motel
  • Southern Anchorage Retreat
  • Anchors Port Campbell

There are many beautiful and romantic getaways in Victoria but the one that stands out the most is the Twelve Apostles. It’s also one of the most popular weekend trips from Melbourne as the 4-hour drive takes you along one of the most scenic coastal roads in Australia.

The Twelve Apostles are wonderful as it is part of the larger trip of driving the Great Ocean Road. What better way to spend some time together admiring one of Australia’s most celebrated landmarks.

To make the Twelve Apostles even more romantic, plan your visit during sunset. They provide a jaw-dropping view as the sky changes between fiery red, deep orange and a splash of purple. It is a truly gorgeous site seeing the cliffs protruding out of the sea with the sweet noise of the ocean breeze keeping you and your loved one company.

Skip the fancy expensive meal in our opinion. Make it extra romantic and set yourself up for a little picnic as you watch the sun go down.

If you can’t make it for sunset, we would recommend visiting outside the 12-2 pm range, as this is when it can get busy with tourists visiting on day tours from Melbourne.

#4 | The Yarra Valley

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 45 minutes

Where to Stay: 

  • Balgownie Estate Yarra Valley
  • Botanica Editions
  • Chateau Yering

One of the most popular spots for couples to get away on a romantic weekend trip from Melbourne is the Yarra Valley. Located only a 45-minute drive east of Melbourne, if you are a foodie or wine-lover looking for a romantic escape then you must add a trip to the Yarra Valley to your bucket list!

The Yarra Valley is known as one of the premier wine-producing regions in Victoria and Australia. Yering Station is a crowd favourite. Within the expansive grounds, you can see where the wine is made and stored before settling into some fine dining in the restaurant.

If you’re seeking something a little more intimate for your romantic time away, take a wander next door to the Chateau Yering. This beautiful 5 Star Hotel is set amongst heritage-listed gardens and is knowns as one of the best luxury romantic getaways in Victoria, with one of the best fine dining establishments – Eleonores Restaurant. All suites are furnished with antiques, fireplaces, marble ensuites, spa baths and four-poster beds. Add to that fabulous views, and you’ll find yourself in romantic Victorian getaway heaven.

Yarra Glen town is just a short drive from Yering and is home to the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery. Head into the coffee shop for more great views of the Yarra Valley and a hot chocolate with a warmed chocolate brownie – you can never have too much chocolate on a romantic weekend away!

After eating and drinking your way through the Yarra Valley, why not check out some of the other activities on offer. You can see the animals at the Healesville Sanctuary, ride the Puffing Billy Steam Train, hire a bike and ride the Warburton Rail Trail, hike one of the many trails, or take a ride in a hot air balloon. Romance is calling you to the Yarra Valley!

#5 | Victorian High Country

A hut in the Victorian High Country - Best Melbourne weekend Getaways

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 3 to 4 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • QT Falls Creek
  • 187 Merrijig

From stunning mountains and valleys, to cosy alpine resorts and a vast array of mountain biking trails, the Victorian High Country is a great place for an active weekend getaway from Melbourne.

Located about 3 to 4 hours drive from the city, Melbourne couples will not only find adventurous things to do in the High Country, but it also offers some great wineries, restaurants, farm gates, and an amazing craft brewery scene. Check out Pizzini Winery, Bright Brewery, or the King Valley’s Prosecco Road, which as you guessed, features a number of great prosecco wine producers. 

If you’re keen to get away for a skiing mini-break, then Victoria’s High Country is the perfect place to plan your next weekend trip from Melbourne in the wintertime. Head to one of the popular alpine resorts such as Hotham, Mt Buller, or Falls Creek. In the summertime, head to the High Country for s spot of hiking, mountain biking or take a dip in one of the High Country’s beautiful swimming holes.

#6 | Lorne

Great Ocean Road view of Southern Ocean from Teddys Lookout in Lorne - Best Victorian weekend getaways

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 2 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Lorne World
  • La Perouse Lorne
  • Great Ocean Road Resort

Lorne is a lively town located along the Great Ocean Road and is known for being one of the best Victorian weekend getaways. Located just under 2 hours from Melbourne CBD, Lorne’s beautiful beaches, quaint boutique shops and restaurants make it a popular destination for a weekend trip from Melbourne, attracting a mix of Victorians, interstate holidaymakers and international travellers alike.

Lorne’s main beach is perfect for both swimming and surfing. You can spend a full day here with your sweetheart lounging on the beach but when you are ready to stretch your legs, walk over to the Lorne Pier. Located on the western edge of town, you’ll typically find the beach lined with fishermen who are more than happy to show off their catch. Take a beach stroll at sunset and watch the colours cascade across the water around you at Lorne Pier.

Another great spot is Teddy’s Lookout which is located just a short drive (or hike) from town. It’s one of the loveliest lookout points along the Great Ocean Road, nestled in the mountainside with vistas out over the river emptying into the ocean. Often you can find koalas snoozing overhead on the short walk from the car park. 

For a romantic evening out, head to Movida, an Italian restaurant with great wine and locally sourced ingredients.

#7 | Phillip Island

Penguin Parade viewing deck at sunset - best romantic weekend trips for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: 2 hours 30 minutes

Where to Stay: 

  • Glen Isla House
  • Luna Blu
  • Saltwater Breeze Retreat

Phillip Island is about 2.5 hours drive from Melbourne and is a great place to visit for a day trip or better still, a weekend getaway with your main squeeze. 

One of the main tourist attractions on Phillip Island is the Penguin Parade, regularly referred to as Victoria’s Number 1 tourist attraction. Many tourists from around the world visit each night to watch the little penguins (formally referred to as fairy penguins) waddle their way from the water to their little nests up in the beach scrub.

Phillip Island has much more to offer than just penguins though. Churchill Island is a working farm where city folk get to experience what life on the farm would have been like in the 1800s. The historic homestead is as it was in the late 1800s and is a great insight into life for our ancestors.

Another great experience for weekend-seekers is the Koala Conservation Centre, this is a home for sick and injured koalas and the boardwalk there is built for optimum viewing of our famous native marsupials. If you get there early in the day you might just see these furry little guys up and about. 

Phillip Island is a great destination for couples, families and anyone really. But you probably want to allow at least a few days to check out all it has to offer.

#8 | Mornington Peninsula

Pulpit Rock sea stacks Mornington Peninsula - Best Romantic Weekend Getaways from Melbourne for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 1 hour

Where to Stay: 

  • Lancemore Lindenderry Red Hill
  • Frogs Pond
  • RACV Cape Schanck Resort
  • Sapphire Shores Luxury Retreat

One of the most popular places for a romantic weekend getaway from Melbourne is the Mornington Peninsula, most likely due to its proximity to the city. The Mornington Peninsula is only an hour’s drive from the CBD, making it a great option if you’re wanting to plan a short trip from Melbourne. If you don’t have a car, you can even get there on public transport!

From miles of vineyards, hiking adventures, and next-level natural spas, Mornington Peninsula has a lot to offer – and that’s before even mentioning the stunning stretches of coastal scenery. You can break up the drive by stopping off at Brighton Beach Boxes, Mount Martha, or one of the ample white-sand bays. 

If you’re an outdoorsy type, head to Point Nepean National Park for hiking and exploration. Take on the wartime tunnels or marvel at the views from the edge of the peninsula. Cape Schanck is also well worth a stop for the boardwalk winding around the red rocks and photogenic lighthouse, as is the London Bridge rock formation.

For the ultimate romantic scene, check out one of the many wineries, such as Merricks Creek Cellar Door or Pt. Leo Estate, to sample the local wine and food before wandering around the gardens. Peninsula Hot Springs is a ‘must do’! The natural hot pools here are beautifully laid out to offer up fantastic views over the surroundings while you soak.

Finish off your weekend in Sorrento. Enjoy strolling around the historical buildings, beach boardwalks to Diamond Bay, and sampling the local restaurants.

#9 | Apollo Bay

Apollo Bay Aerial view - - Romantic Weekend Getaways from Melbourne for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 3 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Chocolate Gannets
  • Seafarers Getaway
  • Apollo Bay Guest House

Apollo Bay, located on Victoria’s southern coast is a gorgeous seaside town on the Great Ocean Road and is probably one of the most popular Melbourne weekend trips available. 

Just a short 3-hour drive from Melbourne (depending on the traffic), Apollo Bay provides a great base to explore all the attractions the area has to offer. From hiking and chasing waterfalls in the Otway Rainforest, to viewing the incredible limestone stacks in Port Campbell Marine Park (such as the Twelve Apostles, London Arch and Loch Ard Gorge). 

Visitors can also take a leisurely stroll along the Apollo Bay Coastal Trail or visit Mariners Lookout to admire the winding coastline or dip their toes in the (often freezing cold) Southern Ocean – one way to make you feel truly alive! 

For the wildlife lovers, keep your eyes peeled for Koalas in the trees as you drive along the road down to the Cape Otway Lightstation; or if you are heading back from the 12 Apostles, stop by Lavers Hill in the evening and see the Glowworms. For more inspiration, and things to do in Apollo Bay, check out this Great Ocean Road Map featuring everything from natural wonders, surf spots, waterfalls, spas and more!

After all that exploring, you’ll be spoilt for choice with the selection of restaurants and bars within walking distance of the main street and beer lovers should be sure to stop by the Great Ocean Road Brewhouse to grab a tasting paddle. 

And if beer isn’t your thing, Apollo Bay is home to the only Gin Distillery along the Great Ocean Road. It’s got an amazing vibe and a fantastic food menu – their pizzas are incredible!

#10 | Bendigo

Lake Weeroonga walking track Bendigo - Best Melbourne Weekend Trips

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 2 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Alexandra Place
  • Quality Hotel Lakeside
  • Balgownie Estate Bendigo

Bendigo was one of the central points of the gold rush back in the 1850s and while you will find gold mining tours available this doesn’t exactly scream romance. But Bendigo is one of those completely under-the-radar romantic weekend getaways from Melbourne. 

The Hotel Shamrock is a grandiose structure that is 150+ years old and is one building in town that provides a similar 19th-century experience that offers a great base for your romantic weekend away.

From here you can wander the surrounding streets to see more of this old-style architecture that gives Bendigo its unique character, from the imposing Town Hall building in the centre of town to the smaller shop fronts with lattice-covered awnings. A small but pleasant botanical garden is also nearby with the highlight being the large tower at the top of the hill that offers the best views in the district.  

Through the middle of it all runs a vintage tram line. This will take you out to Lake Weeroona and the Joss Temple. These are activities more suited to couples that let you stroll around at your own pace to explore amongst some pleasant surroundings.

After a day exploring the town, check out the great wineries on the fringe of town. You can to a self-drive itinerary or jump on a tour that will take you to three different cellar doors so you can enjoy the day without worry.

Recommended by James from teamajtravels.com


#11 | Mildura

Kings Billabong Mildura at sunset - Best romantic getaways Victoria

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 6 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Mildura Golf Resort
  • Indulge Apartments
  • The Stable on Olive

If you’re looking for a couples getaway in Victoria that’s a little further from the city, Mildura has seclusion down pat. Whether your idea of romance is wining and dining or a bit of adventure, Mildura has you covered.

For food and wine, your first stop should be Langtree Avenue – known locally as Feast Street. There are alfresco dining areas, shady street trees and everything from fine dining to cafes. For more wine, try Trentham Estate with its river views or Sunraysia Cellar Door where you can sample over 200 local wines.

When you visit a river town you have to go on a paddle steamer (or perhaps stay on one). These historic old boats are perfect for taking in the scenery and relaxing. Watch the river go by on a lunch or sunset cruise. For something more active, a dusk paddle on Kings Billabong is fantastic. Glide between black swans and pelicans as the sky changes colour at dusk.

A sunset tour of Mungo National Park is also a great experience. Only 90 minutes from Mildura, the arid, other-worldly landscape is striking at sunrise and sunset. Mungo Lodge is a great base to explore the area.

Recommended by Natalie & Steve from Curious Campers


#12 | Grampians National Park

Halls Gap Grampians view - Best Romantic Weekend Getaways in Victoria for couples

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 3 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • Bushland
  • Meringa Springs
  • Boroka Downs
  • Blaze Rock Retreat

Halls Gap is around 3 hours from Melbourne in the western districts of Victoria. The town is located in the magnificent Grampians National Park, making it one of the best secluded romantic getaways in Victoria. From the flat semi-arid countryside to the step-rising mountains with their rock faces and alpine vegetation, the Grampians are simply stunning. 

For your visit to Halls Gap, you’ll find no shortage of things to do in town and the surrounding area. Romantic walks to waterfalls, hand-holding strolls to lookouts and hiking are the most popular activities in the region. Some of the best waterfalls include McKenzie and Silverband falls. Those looking for a view head to the Pinnacles with its all-encompassing views of the western districts. 

There are a number of great wineries where you can try the local varieties and match them with some world-class local produce. The local brewery, Papers Scissors Rock serves some great craft beer and bar food while the Spirit of Punjab serves some of the best Indian food west of Melbourne. 

Looking for something fun to do? Try the Grampians Adventure Golf, the self-proclaimed best mini golf course in Victoria. Or make it one of the most unique weekend getaways in Victoria, by following the Silo Art Trail.

Lackes Entrance park and bridge - Best romantic getaways melbourne

Driving Time from Melbourne: Approximately 4 hours

Where to Stay: 

  • The Esplanade Resort and Spa
  • Bellevue On The Lakes
  • Kalimna Woods Cottages

Lakes Entrance is the capital of the Gippsland lakes located 322 kilometres east of Melbourne. In spite of its distance from the CBD, Lakes Entrance offers one of the best Victorian getaways for couples, because of its beautiful beaches and romantic seaside accommodation.

Ninety Mile Beach runs parallel to the lakes system allowing access to both the lakes and the ocean. Lakes Entrance is aptly known because it is the only place on the coast where the ocean meets the lake via an entrance. This makes Lakes Entrance a hotspot for ocean creatures. You’ll regularly see seals and dolphins. The Burrunan Dolphins are not found anywhere else on earth besides the lakes system of Gippsland. 

Romantic walks along the waterfront, cosy dinners in local seafood restaurants and drinking wine at the Wyanga Park Winery are a must do on a couples weekend away. The Lakes are popular for boating, fishing and all types of water sports. There are day cruises that can take you around the Gippsland lakes or even up to the winery. 

Other nearby towns on the lakes system to visit include Metung and Paynesville. The famous Raymond Island Koala walk is easily accessed from Paynesville. Whatever you’re into, you’re sure to find plenty of things to do in Lakes Entrance on your romantic weekend getaway from Melbourne.
