Sweet dreams are made of this
Where Kisses Make Dreams Come True
In my opinion, successful relationships are build on a few essential elements. Love, Trust…and Chocolate being at the top of that list.
After a romantic chocolate-covered february weekend at the Hershey Lodge and Hotel Hershey’s Chocolate Spa in Hershey, Pa. you will be hard pressed to convince me otherwise.
Friday, Brendan and I arrived at an unusually crowded Hershey Lodge, where we checked in along with what seemed like droves of other couples (who we later learned were there for some sort of married-people conference).
My Chocolate Martini
We dined at the Hotel Hershey’s Fountain Cafe, where we finished dinner off with the most incredible chocolate mousse pie I have ever tasted–and a chocolate martini.
Saturday, we both crossed town, once again, to the Hotel Hershey where we had a couples day of chocolate spa happiness where I experienced a chocolate scrub, chocolate fondue wrap and massage. I had never had a body wrap and felt a bit helpless laying in my chocolate cocoon under warm overhead lights for 20 minutes, but was pleased with the results. Mom always said that beauty hurts…
Brendan and I reunited in the common areas or “quiet rooms” in between sessions for a spa lunch and sipped on a sinful mix of hot chocolate, chocolate muffins, chocolate kisses–which left me feeling a little dizzy by day’s end.
Hershey's Chocolate World
Relaxed from a day of pampering, as if it couldn’t get any better…we then visited Hershey’s Chocolate World which features a large store selling every Hershey candy (and some that you’ve never seen before) an interactive exhibit on chocolate and a 3-D show about Milton Hershey and the company he founded. We took an entertaining and informative tour of the Hershey Chocolate Factory, which to me was fascinating. I, of course, loaded up on some up the unique “not yet in stores” chocolate items (like New York Cheesecake Hershey’s Kisses) to take home with me.
Love and life…all covered in chocolate? Life is sweet.

Great article… the Hershey Spa is a wonderful place to go and relax with the one you love.
For those couples with children or who are kids at heart, Hershey also offers many other fun attractions besides the Hershey Lodge and Hotel Hershey.
There is the Hershey amusement park, Hershey museum, the arena and stadium for sports enthusiasts, and the soon to be completed additions to the Hershey Gardens, new cottages and villas, an outdoor pool with beach and slides. Really a great place to vacation with your family.
I can’t wait to go back with you again soon!

This sounds like it was a delicious weekend for you both. For some unknown reason now, though, I’m craving chocolate. I think I’ll go find a glass of milk and some oreo cookies. Not quite the chocolate martini concoction you had but will satisfy the craving for now.
Thanks for sharing your weekend with us!
