IHG Hotels & Resorts ramps up its role as cupid this Valentine's Day

A recent survey by IHG Hotels & Resorts has revealed almost half of Aussies (49%) say holidays are important not only for themselves, but for their relationships. And, for the 42% of Aussies that have cancelled 1-2 trips away in 2020, a romantic holiday was the third most common trip cancelled that travellers were most looking forward to.

To rekindle the romance this year, IHG has released a series of immersive dining and accommodation packages to spoil a loved one – from unforgettable engagement packages on Australia's Hayman Island to 'dinner in the clouds' at Adelaide's highest restaurant, Koomo, at Crowne Plaza Adelaide.

Where to celebrate this Valentine's Day weekend


InterContinental Hayman Island Resort
Hayman Island's “Romantic Escape” package is the personification of love, available this February only. The package includes up to 20% off four nights or more in a Lagoon King Suite, One Bedroom Pool Ocean Suite or Beachfront Villa, daily gourmet breakfast for two in Pacific, return luxury transfers for two from Hamilton Island, $200 food and beverage credit, a bottle of Veuve Clicquot and a four-course private dining experience with paired wines in a romantic island setting.

Drop a hint: For those looking to pop the big question, the resort is also offering a personalised proposal package from $1,800 complete with a stunning proposal set-up at an on-island location of your choice and a romantic five-course dinner with matching wines in a private cabana overlooking the Coal Sea.
