How do you show your love to your partner on Valentine’s Day? You could do the same clichéd things that others do – dinner, flowers, and gourmet chocolates. Or if you’re looking to spice things up with your long-time love or trying to impress someone new, a hot tub date night can be one excellent way to spend an evening on the most romantic day of the year. Having a soothing soak in the privacy of your backyard can be the perfect way for you and your beloved to relax and share some intimate moments.
Spending time with your loved one in your watery oasis is even better when you invest in replacement hot tub covers. They are built to last and protect your investment. These covers can resist various external elements – from harsh weather elements to pets – so you and your partner can enjoy the swirling jets whenever you want. Make this Valentine’s Day an extra special, romantic, and memorable occasion with a relaxing and enjoyable soak.
6 tips for Valentine’s Day spa time.
With some planning and preparation, you and your loved one can spend a relaxing and enjoyable Valentine’s Day night in your hot tub. Here are some tips to help you plan the ultimate romantic experience:
- Check the water quality – Ensure the pH, alkalinity, and sanitizer levels are all within recommended ranges. Typically, the pH should be between 7.4 and 7.6, and alkalinity between 80 and 120 ppm. In addition, regularly shock the hot tub to eliminate bacteria and organic compounds. Do this at least once a week or after heavy use.
- Get your soft towels and robes – Once you get out of the hot tub, your body will encounter the cool evening air. So before heading to your watery haven, make sure to have some soft, fluffy towels and robes ready. Don’t forget slippers, too.
- Set the lighting – Create a romantic setting with lights. Some hot tubs are equipped with lights. You can also find other mood lighting types that can help create a romantic ambiance around your spa, such as strings of white or pale-yellow lights. To make the setting more romantic, set some flowers or rose petals around the hot tub or place a trail of rose petals from the house out to the hot tub.
- Play some love tunes – Create a Valentine’s Day playlist in advance with ballads or soft instrumental music. You can make a playlist of your own or with the help of a music streaming service like Spotify. Plug your favorite tunes into your spa’s existing sound system or a Bluetooth speaker, allowing you to control the music with your smartphone while soaking in the hot tub.
- Try aromatherapy – Adding pleasant aromas will enhance your romantic spa experience. Lighting a few scented candles or using essential oil diffusers nearby can help you settle in and relax during your hot tub date. In addition, look for hot tub aromatherapy products with ingredients that won’t disrupt the water’s chemistry and add a magnificent scent to your spa. Jasmine, lavender, peppermint, lemongrass, eucalyptus, and rose are effective scents for soothing and energizing your senses.
- Have the bubbly handy – Keep a bottle of champagne, sparkling wine, or sparkling cider chilled nearby to raise a toast to your loved one while enjoying your soak. Make sure that no alcohol gets into the water, and stay hydrated by keeping water in the cooler nearby.
