Romantic Winter Retreats

With V-day a few weeks away, here 's a few ideas on how to pamper your loved one.

Book the overnight "Rub the One You're With" package at Kimpton's Hotel Palomar (seen) in Westwood, CA and enjoy a massage class (given by a certified massage therapist) in the privacy of your own guest room. You'll also enjoy a welcome bottle of Champagne, free overnight parking and a take-home massage kit featuring Kerstin Florian organic lavender massage oil, lavender & lemon aromatherapy candle and aromatherapy bath salts. The overnight package is priced at $399/night through the end of March.

Or, head to the sunny Turks & Caicos and book a three-night "Refresh Escape" at Point Grace. If you have additional time, the four-night "Exhilirating Escape" may be a better fit. Priced from $3,250/couple, the deal includes pool-cottage accommoations and one of the following treatments each day: Ocean Power Marine Algae Wrap, Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Raindrop Technique Massages, and Aromatic Caress Facial, plus a healthy breakfast and lunch for two daily.
