Ah, holiday sex. Who would say no to it? While regular sex at home seems more intimate, there’s something about holidays that make lovemaking even more exciting. A study from the travel site HotelPlanner also said that the best sex is holiday sex, and we couldn’t agree more. 

The Christmas season gives us more quality time to spend with our partners. It's a chance for us to have a break from all the daily things that stress us — traffic, bills, dirty dishes, business meetings, deadlines, you name it. When we feel less stressed, we have more energy to play around and try new things. More than that, the things you and your partner tend to do during the holidays, like booking a hotel room out of town or going camping, can add a little bit of spice to your regular sex sessions. 

"When you’re on vacation, you’re more able to be present because you’re not distracted by work or other responsibilities,” said Holly Richmond, PhD, a relationship and sex therapist from Los Angeles. “You have this extra space emotionally that you can devote to having fun and being with your partner, which of course makes for better sex.”

This Christmas break, you deserve the best holiday sex ever. Here are some tips to make that happen.

Try food play.

The most mouthwatering goodies and treats are served during Christmas time. Bring some into the bedroom to heat up your foreplay and make sex more pleasurable! 

Yep, food play is a thing, and it can make your sexy moments as yummy as your favorite holiday dessert. Several studies also confirmed a close relationship between sex and food. If you're excited to try food play for the first time, you can start with these delicious items from your Christmas table:

• Whipped cream
• Chocolate pudding or syrup
• Peanut butter
• Ice popsicles
• Strawberries
• Marshmallows
• Ice cubes
• Ice cream
• Honey
• Banana
• Cherries
• Chocolate bars

You can also try something more advanced like the Nyotaimori. It’s the art of serving and eating sushi from a naked body. This is perfect for adventurous couples. 

Don’t want to literally play with food? Worry not, there are many edible sexual products that you can also use during your holiday sex. Check out Sex Tarts. It’s a lickable, kissable, and delicious edible lube that’s made to make oral sex much sweeter.

You can also try the Sweet Snow Body Powder. Sprinkle it in all the right spots to instantly make your lover the best Christmas dessert you’ll ever taste. 

Experiment, experiment, experiment.

You’re on holiday. Take that opportunity to try new things with your other half. You can explore new sex positions or do some kinky stuff you haven’t done before, like playing dress-up. After all, it’s Christmas!

We have tons of naughty costumes and sexy lingerie at our online sex toys store that you can check out. One of our favorites is this very festive-looking Shredded Opaque Cut Out Teddy.

You can also try a couple of new sex toys. Enough of the usual dildos and vibrators, and get your hands on more intense pleasure tools like cock rings, harnesses and strap-ons, pig hole butt plugs, and penis extensions.

Take sex outside the home.

Sure, you can choose to fuck each other at home. But why? As they say, some of the most unforgettable moments of our lives happen during trips. So pack your bags and book that vacation away from home! Whether it's just a simple hotel stay or a special out of town trip, travelling to a new place with your special someone will keep things novel and give you alone time for some intimate encounters. 

According to relationship and sex therapist Holly Richmond, PhD:

“When we go on vacation, even if it’s to a place we’ve been before, our surroundings are different, we feel different, the air is different. Just bringing all of that novelty into our sexual experience can heighten things and make sex more exciting.”
