Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to express your love for your partner, so why not go all out this year to show them just how much you appreciate them?

Here’s five super romantic ideas for Valentine’s Day…
Plan a surprise treasure hunt
A romantic treasure hunt is guaranteed to set the stage for a night to remember. Use your imagination when laying the clues. You could set the table and leave the first clue on his plate or send her a sexy text with a clue to where to find you when they get home. It’ll lead your lover on an intriguing journey that’s packed with fun and anticipation…
Enjoy a meal in a top restaurant
Eating out in a top restaurant is probably the most common date idea for Valentines in NYC, but there’s a good reason why! It’s super romantic and provides the perfect chance for you and your partner to spend some intimate time together, chatting and flirting like you did when you first starting dating. Plus, you’ll get to eat fantastic food, which is always a bonus. Top tip: don’t bring the kids. Valentine’s Day should be the one day of the year you get to be alone with your partner, so book a babysitter for the night!
Book a hotel room for a night away
Getting away from your everyday surroundings and checking into a sumptuous hotel suite complete with all your creature comforts is the ideal way to spend Valentine’s Day. Think champagne on ice, room service and an inviting bubble bath. Oh, and make sure to put the ‘do not disturb’ sign on the door! Holing yourselves up in a lavish hotel room is a great way to unwind, relax and spend quality time together.
Take a dance class together
Look for a dance class for beginners in a style of dance that you know your partner will love. Try salsa, swing or even the waltz! You can expect lots of fun, laughter and the chance to create more shared memories together. It’s a good idea to call the studio beforehand to make sure they have enough room in the class and that they accommodate you.
Head to the very top of the Empire State Building
What could be more romantic than standing at the top of the Empire State building with the one you love and admiring the magic of NYC down below? The "Cathedral of the Skies” is the city’s most iconic landmark and even King Kong brought a date up here, so why not do the same?! It’s sure to be an event you’ll both remember for a long time to come.
