We all know the classic love story of Romeo and Juliet, a dark tale, written by none other than William Shakespeare, that tells the story of two young lovers from Verona, who can’t share their relationship to the world because of their feuding families. It’s a tragic love story in the end, but it became a symbol of true love, a kind of love that you could also experience, this Valentine’s Day.
The day of love is just around the corner and Airbnb is giving you a unique chance to celebrate it with a ridiculously romantic stay in Juliet’s iconic house in Verona, complete with private tours, a candlelit dinner and your own butler.
