You can try the Tigh-Na-Mara resort in Parksville. Catch the Horseshoe Bay ferry to Nanaimo, drive up to Parksville and there you go.

Or, if you wanna go all out, the Wikanninish in Tofino.
There are also a ton of amazing B&B's on Saltspring that do romance very well (heart shaped tubs, flowers and champagne, etc).

it's no hard.
Drive to richmond, start at flying beaver, take the plane over to victoria and then get off and boook a nice bed and breakfast , enjoy a day in victoria on a horse, check out the whales, eat at a patio, go try high tea in empress and then fly back.
