Condo Tips: Ideas to Celebrate Valentine's Day

Feb 02, 2022

Indeed, nothing can stop two hearts from beating as one to celebrate this year’s day of love. Butterflies, flowers, and chocolates will undoubtedly fill every corner of the world on this very special day. Plus, it is quite customary to put up hearts as condo designs inside your home to get on board with the love truck. Moreover, countless activities are already allowed in different parts of the Philippines that couples will certainly find exciting and entertaining. However, it is still important to follow local guidelines, put on masks, and sanitize as this also symbolizes love in a way where you protect your loved one and yourself. 

A good old picnic, a walk in the park, or eating at a fancy restaurant may be most people’s itinerary during Valentine’s, but there are far more romantic activities that you can plan! In fact, the perfect formula for deciding what to do for this special day involves a lot of critical thinking (if you want to surprise your partner). Of course, it would be better if you first consider what your partner likes and dislikes. And the key to unlocking this vault without them knowing is to ask them weeks or months before Valentine’s day comes! That way, they would not suspect a thing. Additionally, it would also be practical to consider your budget. Whether the two of you are sharing, or only one (talking to the men here) is paying for everything, find an activity that will not destroy your pockets. Now that you already know the best way to plan for Valentine’s, get a glimpse of some ideas that will fit your budget and vibe on the list below!

Create a private movie theater at your condo

Spending too much on Valentine’s day does not automatically mean perfection. For instance, putting up and giving your efforts into building a cute fort inside your condo will already be much appreciated by your partner! Can you imagine how sweet this date would be? Because I definitely can! This private movie theater will undoubtedly give you a romantic, intimate, and special moment that will never be forgotten. 

All you need is a projector and a white sheet to put up on a wall and voila, you already have an at-home cinema! Aside from that, you can also build pillow forts and light up a few candles to set the mood inside your condo. But of course, we can never forget about treats! You can buy snacks, popcorn, or have pizza delivered which will not cost a lot compared to outdoor dates. On top of that, you get to savor every moment cuddled up while a romantic movie is playing on the big screen. So if you and your partner value quality time more than any other love language, this will be the ideal date for you! But best of all, you get to make the most out of your condo living with this activity, and you will be safer from Covid-19.

Go Camping

Camping is another exciting activity that you and your partner can cross off your bucket list this Valentine’s day. What is more, if your partner loves nature and likes to go on adventures, this date idea will have her adoring you even more! After all, this date is also on the more affordable side of celebrating Heart’s day with your Amore. In particular, you will only need sheets, pillows, and a tent to get this date moving forward. With that, you will probably already have most of the items needed for camping. On that note, all you have to pay for is food to munch on, and gas for your travel or budget for your commute.

Besides food, you can also spice up your camping by bringing board games or cards that you can play while spending the breezy day ahead. Uno cards, Monopoly, and Snake and Ladders would be fun to play during this time, instead of being glued to your phones while camping. After all, you and your lover will be there to have some alone and quality time. Make sure you get the most of it by getting disconnected from the rest of the world. Savor the moment on this year’s Valentine’s day, since this is what the pandemic pretty much taught us - to value and treasure every precious time we spend with our loved ones.

Go Ice skating

If you are a couple who still have not yet tried ice skating, then this is your sign to finally do it! Indeed, it would be hard to put those skates on, but with your partner by your side, nothing will ever be impossible (excuse the cheesiness, it’s Valentine’s day!). What is more, trying new things is what spices up a relationship, right? With that said, if your lover is always game to unpredictability, taking her to go ice skating can be a nice Valentine’s day date. Plus, there are lots of skating rinks in the Philippines - you can find them in malls within the Metro!

On that note, Vista Residences offers strategically located condos that will make traveling to malls a breeze for you. For instance, they have a condo in Baguio City, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Makati, Mandaluyong, Manila, Pasig, Quezon City, and Taguig!

Ride the Gondola at Venice Grand Canal 

Perhaps the most romantic thing to do is to ride a boat that has a singing sailor in it. With that said, taking your partner to ride the Gondola at Venice Grand Canal will undoubtedly give her all the butterflies. Doing this would signify your commitment, boast your affection towards your beloved, and scream loyalty as you will be showing them off while you ride the romantic gondola. Moreover, you do not have to worry about this date being too pricey, as the ride is quite affordable as well. With that, you can even end the night with an intimate dinner at a fine dining restaurant inside the mall. After all, nothing beats the classics when it comes to Valentine’s day activities. 

Valentine's Day is not just for people with relationships, single people can celebrate it with friends, family or someone close to their hearts.
