Oh, Valentine’s Day. The one day a year when you’re expected to amaze your loved one with something truly spectacular. Although the clock is ticking, it’s not quite time to start panicking if you haven’t found the perfect gift or weekend excursion. To help you plan a unique day, Sterling Custom Homes, a new home builder in Austin, has a few suggestions.

Take a timeless classic to a new level: The massage or spa destination is a timeless Valentine’s Day treat. However, make this year truly luxurious with a visit to the spa located at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin. For an extra treat, plan to stay the night in one of the hotel’s lavish lake-view rooms or suites. For more information, visit the Four Seasons Hotel website.

Visit a romantic vineyard: Want to get an early start to a day of romance? Consider visiting Fall Creek Vineyards for the 12th Annual Wine and Roses Valentine Luncheon on Saturday, Feb. 12 at 11:30 a.m. or 1:15 p.m. Let your palates run wild with a romantic three-course meal prepared by Chef Rob McMahon. Visit the Fall Creek Vineyards website to reserve you place.

Be whisked away: The black and white movies of the past always make train rides seem so thrilling and romantic. Now, you can star in your own romantic black and white film by letting the Austin Steam Train whisk you away for an idealistic Valentine’s Day dinner. Lounge passengers will enjoy a full service meal while couch ticket holders will indulge in a wonderful buffet. With complimentary drinks and entertainment, how could you go wrong? Book your ride by visiting the Austin Steam Train website.
