AH! Valentine's Day is less than 48 hours away so I promise to keep this post short and sweet! If you are hanging out with your gals, significant other, pet(s), loved ones, or playing cupid - these last minute Valentine's Day inspo can apply to really anyone at home or if you are traveling!

We can all agree that Valentine's Day this year will look a little different than previous years. This year I am so happy to play cupid and provide some quick insights for this year Valentine's Day and maybe future ones to come! With COVID-19, many destinations are still choosing to play it safe for workers and consumers alike (and thank YOU!) However, I am happy to highlight three options offering safe and romantic Valentine's Day services whether you are near or far!

IVY Hotel - Baltimore, Maryland

This luxury independent (not affiliated with a hotel brand) hotel will have you wanting to definitely hide away for a romantic weekend. The hotel is located in the Ivy area of the Baltimore City - known for its chic charm. The hotel consists of seventeen suites in a luxury mansion offering food and beverage spa services and more. Common themes that can be implemented at home include wine, &strawberries and chocolate. Not to mention, this hotel is a black-owned hotel (learn more in travel resources tab).
