4 Ways to a Sexy (Chicago) Staycation

Labor Day weekend is upon us. If you're not in the middle of visiting relatives or at a BBQ, maybe you should consider a staycation this weekend?

Our Crimson reports.

It's hard when you and your lover have busy lives. You want to get away on a vacation. There, you'll have alone time and get the chance to get out of the house.

What do you do? Take some time out for a staycation! What's a staycation? A staycation is time to get away, relax, and have fun all while staying in your own city. What does one do on a staycation? How does it work? I'm glad you asked!

Here are some important tips to a successful staycation.

#1 Take time off

In order for this to work you must dedicate the time like you would a regular vacation. Leave the kids with a sitter, turn off your cell phones and ditch your other distracting technology. For emergencies leave your hotel phone number and address with the sitter or a relative.

#2 Make lodging accommodations

Book your lodging. Unless you're going to rough it with camping? In which case, plan out where you'll be camping. Chicago itself has a lot of great hotels and places to stay.

Chicago hotel recommendations:

I would suggest the Hotel Sax because on top of having really beautiful, modern rooms it has Bin 36 (the on site restaurant/tavern), The Crimson Lounge (the sexy,  sensual, red lounge also located on site), and it's right next to the House of Blues!

The Hyatt Regency is also another great choice with fabulous rooms, on site restaurants, bars, and gorgeous romantic city views guaranteed to inspire some frisky business. If you want something that's not in the city but would still accommodate your need for lodging and intimacy try Aura in Midlothian Illinois or Ambiance in Franklin Park. You must have a membership to stay because it's considered an "adult hotel".


#3 Choose a restaurant you haven't been to before

Food! It's fulfilling, and can be extravagant and entertaining. Choose a spot that's new, different or luxurious. You both deserve it.

Chicago restaurant recommendations: 

Chicago has a fantastic culinary scene that is certainly on the rise. Not only are there many places downtown but there are also many cool places in neighboring areas. Sepia is a restaurant with a menu to die for and some sexy ambiance.

Another really great restaurant is Japonais. With it's sexy, eye catching decor and wonderful menu options. The absolute must of my recommendations is Alinea. It has been rated as one of the worlds 50 best restaurants and has a menu that is like magic.

#4 Have fun and sexy activities planned

Night life and activities in general in the city are full of fun, excitement and sensuality if you do it right. Variety is the spice of life. Chicago has it from salsa dancing to, couples massages to, sexy crimson lounges, to burlesque shows. Whatever you like, Chicago has it.

When you are feeling the urge to get away with your lover but can't, plan a sexy staycation in Chicago and enjoy your time together.
