Over 75% of British couples find Valentine’s Day a romantic occasion worth celebrating. Even with that love in the air, many feel that Valentine’s brings a lot of pressure and can be a stressful experience.
If you have a hot tub, then we have some ideas for how you can make your Valentine’s Day that extra bit special.
Prepare your perfect Valentine's hot tub experience
When it comes to any event, including Valentine’s Day, we want to do our best to make sure that things runs smoothly. Preparation is key so that we don’t disappoint and create a magical experience.
Putting some thoughts together beforehand can save you time, energy and stress in the long run. If you haven’t already, be sure to turn on your hot tub early, as some hot tubs can take anywhere from 8-15 hours to heat up so give yourself plenty of time.
If you need to heat up your hot tub quicker, you can use a hot tub cover, turn on the hot tub jets, or use a thermal spa blanket. Some hot tubs, such as the Oasis with their award-winning insulation, really stand above the rest with their ability to retain heat here without any added extras or special tricks. Of course, always do what is best for your hot tub and take care when heating your hot tub according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Aside from that, food and drinks are a perfect addition to a fun and romantic evening. Think of what food you and your partner would enjoy eating together, not forgetting any sweet treats and nibbles. Making sure these are easy to hand is essential, so you can enjoy without having to leave your hot tub.
Picking up a bottle of wine, champagne or your favourite beverage is also highly recommended before your night starts. If you have it beforehand then you can chill your drinks so they are fresh and ready to crack open once the moment arises. Some popular hot tubs come with champagne buckets to make this even more special.
Bonus tip: If your hot tub doesn’t have a champagne bucket, you can get an attachable table accessory that conveniently holds your favourite beverage for you while you’re in your hot tub.
To really make things special, you could even have a candle-lit dinner before you get into your hot tub. This helps to set a romantic mood and connect over food right before you join each other in your hot tub.
Set a Romantic Ambience
Valentine’s Day is all about having an emotional and romantic connection with your special someone. No Valentine’s Day would be complete without creating a romantic atmosphere. After all, humans are emotional and we want to feel a sense of relaxation, comfort and euphoria when enjoying our romantic hot tub experience.
The key thing to remember when creating your intimate atmosphere is that the devil is in the details, meaning it’s all about making sure the little touches are perfect. If you can make the little things perfect, then Valentine’s Day is sure to be a memory that you and your partner can cherish.
To start, think of the kind of mood lighting that you and your loved one will enjoy. For some people that means classic Valentine’s red mood lighting, others like a variety of different colours, such as fairy lights around your gazebo or garden. The important thing is to choose what you and your partner will enjoy the most. Another great romantic idea is to handwrite an invitation to join you in the hot tub, this is a small touch but it can be a great romantic surprise for your partner, plus it’s inexpensive!
Next, feel free to lay a path of rose petals leading up to the hot tub or around the hot tub. This is an amazing romantic touch and it will be a great way to surprise your partner. Lastly, join your loved one in the hot tub for an intimate yet exciting time together.
Spice things up by adding a few exciting surprises
Once you are in the hot tub and you have had some time together, it’s easy to lose momentum and feel like you have used up the best of your Valentine’s Day surprises. However, this isn’t necessarily the case, because the beauty of hot tubs is that they have many amazing features that can make your Valentine’s even more special.
You can switch up the mood in an instant by adjusting the lighting, music and water features. If your hot tub has some lighting then you can switch on some different colours to add to the romantic mood and vibe.
Many of our hot tubs have built-in Bluetooth and speakers, so you can simply connect to the wireless Bluetooth, and you can play the perfect romantic music or intimate playlist. Again, as humans we love listening to music and it has such an impact on our emotions. You can even have a playlist that gradually gets more intimate and romantic as the playlist progresses.
If you have a hot tub with water features you can turn up the romance by changing the pressure or direction of the jets. Some of our best hot tubs also have fountains and waterfalls so you and your partner can experience a mesmerising water display right before your eyes. An easy way to make amazing memories!
While the beautiful lighting is shining, the romantic music is playing and the water display is dazzling, sparkling conversation will flow naturally. While we aren’t conversation specialists, we do know that hot tubs can bring you closer, especially when it comes to intimate conversations.
So if you are stuck, then think of things you and your partner love to talk about, maybe it can be something you and your partner haven’t talked about it in a while. It never hurts to share the things you love about each other.
Leave your hot tub on a romantic high
Just because you’ve had an amazing time together in the hot tub, that doesn’t mean you have to let the excitement stop. Instead, you can have something planned for after the hot tub, whether this is sharing some chocolates together, drinking some of your favourite beverages or having some alone time together. You can continue to make the night special.
Think about the magnificent memories you have created together over the course of the evening in your hot tub. The beautiful thing is, with your very own hot tub, you don’t just have to let an intimate evening in the hot tub be a ‘one off’. You can have many more romantic evenings with your partner just like this one. It’s all a matter of getting together in your hot tub and making memories!
Now that you have read about how your hot tub can make your Valentine’s Day extra special, you can see that there are so many ways you can use your hot tub to create amazing experiences. After all, you can’t put a price on memories and the memories you make in your hot tub with your loved one’s can last forever.
