‘Dirty Weekend’ and 'Sex Hotel' are two of the most searched phrases couples use when they WANT TO BOOK AN INTIMATE WEEKEND AWAY.
And this doesn't mean they're looking for something sordid.
They are simply seeking a romantic hotel with an ambience designed for igniting passion... and maybe a private hot tub.
But couples revert to these rather crude search terms because they don't know how else to 'name it.'
The phrase ‘Dirty Weekend’ has been bandied around for a few decades now.
Initially, coming about to describe going away with someone you
weren’t in a relationship with… usually to a mysterious location... where you could
hide away from the world to avoid being caught!
And as a result, a dirty weekend bears the essence of cheap hotels, warm
champagne and flimsy fluffy handcuffs; a weekend tinged with disappointing
drunken roleplay against dimly depressing décor, returning home on Sunday,
hungover and leather-chafed.
But unappealing as this is - ‘Dirty Weekend’ - is clearly still the closest description that comes to mind when couples go online and want to BOOK A ROMANTIC HOTEL with passion on their minds.
‘Dirty Weekends’ are no longer the reserve of illicit
affairs.
Because today, times have changed, and we’ve evolved, and a
weekend devoted to pleasure is now the proud pursuit of all passionate couples:
whether you’ve just recently met... or you’ve been together for 25 years; whether
you’re bouncing gym bunnies in your twenties... or sassy seventy-year olds who
know more about life than you should!
So, the ‘Dirty
Weekend’ really no longer deserves the connotations of sordid salaciousness,
and there needn’t be anything cheap or dirty about it - unless you choose to
stay somewhere cheap and dirty, that is.
Today, there is no rivalry between romance and passion - it’s NOT a case of rose petals scattered delicately on the bed versus cocktails and sex on the balcony.
It will drench you in lavish loving details and swathe you in sensuality, so that every inch of you is left utterly indulged and completely satisfied.
Perhaps you simply want sultry surroundings; a sheepskin rug in front of a log fire or sensual couples’ massages… Maybe you desire a balcony with a Jacuzzi for al fresco adventures… Or even a feature bed to act as your stage as you play your parts perfectly into the mirrored wall that allows you to be each other’s audience?#
