It is that time of the year again, and whether you are the kind who only celebrates on the day, or if you are the type who really goes big and plans a weekend away, Nelspruit is a great place to spend some quality time with your partner.
Nelspruit is that city at the heart of the Lowveld that everyone should visit at least once, and in February, with the summer soon coming to an end, you wouldn’t be the first or the only couple enjoying a weekend break here during the month of love. Although it is still quite hot in the city, the nights are starting to cool off, and are punctuated with the sounds of crickets and frogs, and the days are warm enough to sit by the poolside or beneath the shade of the cool trees.
If the Lowveld is on your radar for your romantic weekend away, then Nelspruit Lodge should be one of the places that you consider staying in. Here we have comfortable rooms, all the right amenities, beautiful gardens, and swimming pool, and we are also in close proximity of all sorts of interesting things to do as well as some pretty amazing restaurants.
Tips for planning a memorable romantic weekend
To help you plan your romantic weekend away, we have a couple of really easy, really simple to use planning tips that you can have a look through. So let’s jump in!
- Location is a big deal
Where you are planning to stay during your weekend away is so important because it is going to set the tone for your entire weekend. You will get to choose from 3 typical location options, with them being the semi remote, busy city, and completely remote. Each has their perks but if you want to be close to some really great places to eat, you might want to stay either close to or in the city.
- Don’t put the stress on yourself
Many people, when planning a romantic break, get way too hung up on making sure that every moment of the trip is as romantic as possible. The downside of this mind set is that you are basically setting yourself up for failure when you don’t meet your own expectations. The point of the whole trip should be to bond with one another and just have some time together without having to worry about all of the day to day stresses.
- Plan for your personality
If you are an outdoorsy couple, make sure that you look into the various fun things in the area that you can do. And if you are more of a laid back couple, you can instead plan things like a relaxing picnic. There are various restaurants in town that offer luxury picnic baskets that you can take with you to wherever you are headed for the day. And nothing says romantic like a peaceful picnic under swaying green trees.
