You have lots of options for romance with that special person in your life, but if you really want to earn some extra brownie points for Valentine’s Day, we have a suggestion: Instead of spending the day shoveling snow and ending up too exhausted to properly show your valentine how much he or she means to you in your home state, plan an Orlando getaway! This year the most romantic day falls on a Friday, so go ahead and take that extra day and fly away to Florida for a fun-filled escape filled with the romantic activities we’ve compiled in this guide—and a few of your own ideas, of course!
Breakfast in Bed
Start the day out right with a special breakfast that can be enjoyed without leaving the comfort of your soft bed! Fully equipped kitchens make meal prep easy, but if cooking isn’t your strongest point, a stop at Voodoo Donut promises to provide all the tasty treats you’ll need. They offer an innovative selection of your favorite flavors and some you may have never heard of before; the Bacon Maple Bar is a popular choice for those who love the unusual!
No Ugly Ducklings Here
We may not be located right on the ocean, but there are plenty of water activities you can still participate in throughout the year; the most romantic is the Swan Boats at Lake Eola! Offering ordinary paddle boats disguised as swans, you and your beloved can paddle around enjoying the temperate weather and the beautiful views. Being alone together in the midst of all the other swans offers a beautiful moment in time!
Cherry Bomb Burlesque
The lost art of burlesque is alive and well at the Orlando Forum on Valentine’s Night. Offering a cheeky peek into the dance, this sexy and funny show promises to bring a little humor to the romance that signifies this romantic holiday. Striptease, dance, and a few mini dramas add up to a very satisfying show!
Le Temps de Manger (Time to Eat!)
The most romantic of traditions, the Valentine’s Day dinner offers a French twist when you explore the cuisine at Chez Vincent, found in nearby Winter Park. Enjoy your escargot and vin brought to you by efficient waitstaff. Their seafood selection is extensive, fresh, and delicious; our favorite romantic dish is the Saumon aux Framboises (salmon with raspberry & sherry wine reduction.
