6 Dreamy Airbnbs in Alaska Ideal for a Romantic Escape Any Time of Year

You'll be swooning in no time at these gorgeous getaways around the state.

All work and no play just doesn't vibe in Alaska — there's far too much to see and do! But whether you and your boo are into deep-sea fishing, backcountry-blazing, or helicopter wildlife-viewing, even the most adventurous couple needs a romantic, laid-back vacation every once in a while.

Book a stay in one of the many spectacular vacation rentals around the state, and you can whip up a romantic candlelit dinner, snuggle in front of a roaring fireplace, soak under the stars in a private hot tub, or enjoy views for days while sipping your morning coffee on the deck — all without housekeeping knocking on your door. For a rejuvenating, relaxing getaway with your special someone, these cozy, romantic Airbnbs in Alaska are definitely worth checking out!

1. Tiny Home on the Dome, Fairbanks

As the Northern Lights capital of Alaska, Fairbanks is always a good idea. In fact, the only thing better than gazing into one another's eyes here will be admiring the stunning views! This tiny hilltop cabin is actually built on top of a shipping container to add extra height and take advantage of the 270-degree views, which are absolutely phenomenal at over 2,000 feet above the valley floor. Sunrises, sunsets, auroras over the mountains, and the Fairbanks skyline can all be enjoyed from the cabin's huge lofted deck (the hot tub is a prime spot!), or admired through the numerous oversized windows in every room. Then, toast to your love over the outdoor fire pit!

2. Chugach Mountain Chalet, Anchorage

Alaska is known for its humble wilderness cabins and off-grid retreats, but this quiet home in Anchorage feels like a lavish sweet home away from home, complete with a large yard and a tree border for privacy. The Luxe Mountainside Chalet in Anchorage has plenty of space for multiple couples to share, but somehow keeps it cozy with warm woods, brick accents, spa-like bathrooms, and comfy furnishings. The deck hot tub is a wonderful addition to a weekend of relaxation!

3. Hemlock Mountain House, Anchorage

Year-round views await at the Hemlock Mountain House in Anchorage. If you love a traditional Alaska getaway, this custom cabin in the Chugach Mountains shows off miles of scenery to perfection, no matter the season. Couples can also take advantage of the on-site barrel spa, dreamy wildflower and woodsy surroundings, and even the nearby state park if you feel like leaving the creature comforts behind for a few hours.

4. Tidepool Cabin, Seldovia

We love a good cottage by the sea, and the petite Tidepool Cabin on MacDonald Spit sits on both Kasitsna and Kachemak Bays, and shows off Alaska's coastal side in the prettiest way. The simple, charming studio is right on the water, so you're definitely going to want to throw back the airy curtains to enjoy the waves rolling in! Two different hot tubs are available here — one private and one shared — but both sit beachside, begging you to come lounge with a glass of wine as the sun sinks below the horizon.

5. Salted Roots A-Frame, Seward

This classic A-frame cabin in Seward is ready for you and your boo to have a full-on romantic escape in a gorgeous old-growth spruce forest! The Salted Roots Red Door A-Frame is immaculately decorated and features soaring glass windows and luxury furnishings. The wet room feels straight out of a magazine, and the setting on the beachfront of Lowell Point is absolutely stunning, too. Photo-worthy extras include the clawfoot tub, spectacular spiral staircase, and on-site sauna. Plus, those Adirondack chairs are calling!

6. Stone Lantern House, Sitka

"Find inner peace while immersed in the natural landscape of Southeast Alaska." The Stone Lantern House listing says it all! If you and your other half are craving an escape to your own private island, this incredible Airbnb in Sitka will make all your wildest dreams come true. Relax in Japanese-inspired luxury right on the water as you kick back on the natural rock outcroppings or the wraparound deck and enjoy endless breathtaking ocean views. Large, seamless windows, a tea room, and natural elements infused right into the space combine to create the ultimate sanctuary for two (or more if you're planning a couple's retreat!).

A chic chalet in the mountains, a beachy abode in Seldovia... Alaska is full of stunning vacation rentals to escape to, many of which are perfectly designed for two. Since there are 52 weekends in a year to get out and enjoy the wilds of The Last Frontier, why not spend at least a few of those in style with your favorite person? You deserve it!
