An Autumn Wellness Weekend for Two: A Getaway Among the Vineyards of Prlekija

In the summer, Prlekija invites you to be active, while in the fall, it invites you to slow down. After the grape harvest, the hills turn shades of yellow, orange, and copper; mornings are foggy, while afternoons are often still sunny. It is precisely this contrast—the cool air outside and the warmth of the sauna inside—that is the essence of a good wellness getaway in the fall.

October is also the month when people return to their daily routines and feel the need for a break. A spa weekend in Slovenia, just two hours from the capital, is the perfect solution that doesn’t require taking time off work: you head out after work on Friday, and by Sunday afternoon, you’re back home, refreshed. And in November, Jeruzalem comes alive with St. Martin’s Day celebrations.

The spa in Sibon covers more than 300 m² of indoor and outdoor space. It is designed as a retreat, not a water park: there is no noise or crowds here, just silence, wood, and views.

What awaits you at the spa:

Sibon recommends a simple ritual: start with a few minutes in the salt room, followed by a massage in the wine cellar, and finish with a sauna or some relaxation in the spa oasis. The spa is open to adults and teenagers over the age of 15, so the atmosphere is peaceful and ideal for couples looking to relax.

The Sibon Resort combines simplicity, elegance, and modern design—wood, warm colors, and large windows that offer views of nature. For a romantic getaway for two, we recommend two categories:

Deluxe Room – a very spacious room with a double bed, two armchairs, a small table, and a comfortable sofa. The windows provide plenty of natural light and a view; the room is equipped with bathrobes, a minibar, a safe, and air conditioning.

Suite – a bathroom made of natural materials, wood, and large glass surfaces that offer views of the living area or the outdoors; a bathtub or shower, bathrobes, and a view of unspoiled nature. The comfort of your room is enhanced by the sunrise or sunset.

If you want to surprise your partner, ask about having a bouquet and some sparkling wine in the room before you arrive.

The cuisine at Sibon is based on the Prlekija culinary tradition, which combines tradition and technique with local ingredients, vegetables, and herbs from the home garden. In the fall, this means pumpkin, mushrooms, chestnuts, and dishes with wine-based sauces.

For special occasions, Sibon prepares romantic dinners for two featuring three, four, or more courses, accompanied by a glass of wine, in the magical atmosphere of Jerusalem. In the wine bistro, the in-house sommelier selects wines that represent the local region—paired with cured meats and cheeses. Breakfast is a buffet, featuring local delicacies, served daily from 8:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

If you’d like to spend the evening elsewhere, the hotel recommends nearby restaurants, including Gostišče Taverna, located on a hill between Svetinje and Jeruzalem.

You can book all activities at the hotel front desk.

Are you looking for a gift for two that won’t end up in a drawer? A Sibon gift certificate is perfect for a birthday, anniversary, wedding, or Christmas—and it’s a lovely invitation to spend a weekend together among the vineyards. Since holiday dates fill up quickly, October is the perfect time to buy one.
