What are your best tips for a successful 48 hour rendez -vous ? (after having agreed on price and location)
I would still add a detail about the location that makes a great difference: a hotel with a pool and/or a hot tub that is accessible. It's nice when we're a bit tired in the afternoon and we don't want to go too far, relaxing and reading by the pool is always fun. It's also a good way to spend a slow morning.
Suggest activities you want to do, discuss them and choose together. Most importantly, follow through. What do I mean? Don't come up with fake excuses to cancel the activity just to spend more time in the room!
Planning a lot of time outside having fun in the city is great, but be mindful that if your day is filled from head to toe with no time to breathe, you might be both too exhausted for some playtime after dinner. Or it might not be as enjoyable as you thought. In other words, don't pack your days too much! Planning some downtime, and being realistic about the duration an activity takes, with enough time to get ready for it and the commute, will allow you both to have plenty of energy to enjoy your private moments!
Ask her how many hours of sleep she needs and allow her to get her beauty rest in full. Don't wake her up during the night unless she explicitly states you can do so.
She might request some personal time, the when and how long should have been discussed before booking to make sure you are on the same page.
Personally, bringing me my coffee as soon as I wake up is a really nice touch!
Knowing I'll be hungry as soon as I get off the plane and taking me for a quick bite is quite appreciated!
I will probably think of something else later.
