Hello everyone. I am new here and I was looking for some romantic places to go to for a weekend, for my first anniversary, which is on the new year's day. But I am on a budget.
Can anyone give me any suggestions please.

You're welcome, that's why we here on forums help each other聽

Romantic weekend getaway and Saudi Arabia don't go together...

If you just want a weekend trip聽 you have places like Al Baha where you'll find yourself surrounded by mountains and hilly areas.

and if all fails, you can spend your first anniversary in Makkah or Madinah under the light of God and pray for a better future with many romantic getaways....

Also what "romantic" stands in your books maybe different for someone...

You can go to a resort book a room there for a night. Spend your night on beachside . Does that sound romantic ? You can arrange music there. If budget is too low then don't book a room. You can still move around the resort by paring entry fee only . I think silver sands, bahadur resort , Sheraton resorts are a few examples

I had narrowed it down to the same thing. But i wanted to know if they allow Indians to enter? Because as i read around, there is no phone number or such of these resorts and the security guard at the gate may allow a person to enter or not.
If we drive all the way up there and they don't let us enter, then the day will be ruined!
So, do you know if they allow Indians and any way to book beforehand?

Yes I'm sure about Sheraton resorts, durratul urus and bahadur resort. Indians are allowed to enter but not sure about rest

As we have limited choices here in Jeddah. I would like to suggest you to spend your weekend in beach side resorts where you can enjoy a calm and pleasant environment with some boat rides and jet skis.
Try resorts in Durrah Beach which is 80Kms (hardly 1 hour drive) away from Jeddah city, where you can find fine beaches with blue water and white sand. The resorts have affordable prices. One of the famous resort in Durrah Beach is Durrah Beach Resort.聽 (). And you can find other resorts too.
Hope this information will help you. Thank you

Hi Shaguftakhan

There are heaps of places. E.g. if you like armanian food you can go to Lucin or maybe try Asse which is new and belongs to the famous singer asse alhilani.

Cheers,

How about spend a day in the open ocean? Swim, snorkel and dive.

I tried those activities last week (alhamdulillah salamat back to shore)
And it cost -+370

Breakfast and lunch is included
Gear is prepared by the organizer

And hey! The organizer is Indian! 馃拑
