SINGAPORE, Jan 29 ­— Reminder: Valentine’s Day is less than three weeks away. If it’s too late or if you’re too busy to do that romantic getaway, book a room here instead. After all even family website Maybe Baby has introduced an I Love Children staycation special in partnership with 12 hotels, including intimate properties like The Scarlet, Klapsons and the Equarius Hotel. This is “in support of the SG50 Baby Community Initiative” so the staycation special is only valid for stays till April.

The 12 hotels are throwing in a few additions to spice things up: For example, The Quincy is organising a Saturday movie by the pool as well as couple activities such as art jamming; while over at the Oasia Hotel Singapore, you get a rose petal bath upon request.

Of the lot though, Naumi Hotel probably has the most elaborate seduction routine: For S$550++ (RM 1473++), the hotel presents a scented Oasis Room to lay the stage for action. In addition to that, you get a bouquet of flowers, a rose petal bath, a romantic set dinner for two including a bottle of sparkling wine, and complimentary free flow wines and beer from 4.30pm to 6.30pm to get suitably uninhibited. Poom Monterde, director of sales at Naumi Hospitality said: “A stay at Naumi should be an exciting and memorable one. The team brainstormed and put together a list of items that we felt would enhance a staycation at our flagship property on Seah Street. Highlights of our package would include the ‘naughty pack’ that will be given upon check-in while a copy of the Karma Sutra awaits in the room. (It’s) all part of the simulating experience we hope to achieve with this package.” For more fireworks, the Andy Warhol and Coco Chanel-inspired suites are available from S$650++.

However, for those who only feel more amorous on Valentine’s Day itself, there are a few stellar offerings from different hotels during that time (Feb 13 to 15). ParkRoyal on Pickering’s In The Mood For Love package definitely puts you in the right mood — right from the black luxury car pick-up. There is a bottle of champagne and strawberries delivered to your suite and spa treatments for two. It starts from S$688++ for the junior suite. Ritzier types might want to check into the Ritz-Carlton Millenia. The hotel is ensuring you never have to leave its rooms with its Be My Valentine Package (priced at S$999++ for the premier suite); which includes flowers, in-room dinner for two, the signature Second Honeymoon butler drawn bath — complete with a bottle of Louis Roederer bubbly to share — and breakfast between the sheets.

Fullerton Hotel’s Suite Dream package sounds even sweeter. For S$1,188++ a night, you can hole up in the luxurious duplex Loft Suite which has double-storey French doors that opens up to a balcony facing the Marina Bay waterfront where a champagne toast is almost mandatory thanks to the complimentary bottle thrown in. The package also rolls out a four-course in room dinner for two and access to The Straits Club for a champagne breakfast. There are only eight Loft Suites so you might want to book early to sweep your partner off his or her feet.

But Valentine’s Day doesn’t always have to burn a hole in your pocket. At Hotel Fort Canning, the Love Blossoms Valentine’s Day weekend room starts from S$385++ a night and comes with the works: A bottle of prosecco, a bubble bath or petals on the bed, breakfast and complimentary evening drinks plus a pair of cuddly bears as souvenirs. Carlton City Hotel at Tanjong Pagar’s A Perfect Valentine Staycation is also affordably priced from S$268++ for a Deluxe Room which includes breakfast, a bottle of red wine and a Molton Brown London Gift Set.

Lloyd’s Inn, the winner of TripAdvisor’s Best Bargain Hotel 2015 is a budget romantic’s dream come true with room rates starting from US$192++ a night. The chic minimalist hotel which reopened last year after a makeover is deliriously popular with couples, especially its Big Sky Room which are booked up two months in advance. It’s no surprise its suites and some of its rooms such as The Sky Room are already out for the V-Day weekend. But the Standard Room, Business Room and Big Garden Room are still available (for now).

Another newcomer to consider is Raintr33 Hotel in Changi Village. Spread out over two colonial buildings, the former commando camp is now a 50-room property. For its first Valentine’s Day promotion priced at S$299++ a night, you can check into its Maple room with a private balcony. Settle down with a bottle of wine, breakfast for two and a 15 per cent off your bill at its Cedro bar and bistro. The hotel is a little remote but isn’t the whole point to feel like it’s only the two of you in the world? — TODAY
