Flowers, chocolates beautiful jewellery… These remnants of Valentine’s past won’t hold the same weight in 2021 as we’ve all realised that quality time, heartfelt moments and items that spark joy hold a lot more significance.
While we’re all still reeling from lockdown restrictions and reaching for the sanitiser (again), February presents the perfect time to recharge with some romance to take our minds off COVID-19.
So this Valentine’s Day, upgrade your usual chocolates and flowers combo, and treat your significant other to a gift they won’t soon forget.

We’re all tired of living and working in one place (our homes!), which is why a night or two away can feel like a complete luxury. But there’s no need to go too far; a staycation close to home can offer the same highs as a holiday halfway across the world. Experience hotels that are usually out of reach financially for a fraction of the standard cost with Radisson hotels’ special rates. From an ocean-view room, cheese and wine selection and an indulgent spa offering at Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront, to ice-cold bubbly in your suite and a delicious, contemporary dinner at Radisson Blu Hotel Sandton, you’ll be spoilt for choice. Plus, Radisson Hotels Safety Protocol, established in partnership with SGS, will assure your peace of mind throughout your stay.
