If you want a romantic getaway in B.C., then get out your calendar, because this hotel in Victoria is offering unique stargazing packages that are about as fairytale-like as it gets.

The Parkside Hotel & Spa is in the oceanfront city, and their Spectacular Stargazing package lets you soak up the beauty of the night sky.

You can add on the package to a two-night minimum stay and with it get a night of a private patio, set up for stargazing with telescopes, sky maps, star finders, a cozy firepit, lounge chairs and blankets, and even a treat cart to top it all off. The price for the add-on starts at $250, and it also comes with a Start Trail map of Victoria.

For an add-on starting at $100, you can opt for the Celestial Exploration package, which comes with a Stargazing Trail Map, a virtual guide, and some blankets and binoculars.

Also, the hotel itself makes for a stunning stay.

The packages are in partnership with The Centre of the Universe, which is an organization focused on public science outreach in Victoria. If you really want to get your fill of the night sky you can also visit there for exhibits, a planetarium and full-dome movies.

Whether you want a romantic getaway in Victoria or are just looking for a fun way to stargaze, it might be worth checking out The Parkside Hotel & Spa's packages.
