Champagne, roses, chocolates, scrubs and rubs, and special treats to get that romantic glow — that’s what the desert’s top spas have in store in February. Couples, singles, and besties are in for a beautiful time.
Agua Serena Spa at Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort & Spa has two romance packages, including the Cupid’s Kiss — a custom couples massage or cactus and date body scrub with optional upgrades of extra time in a private couples’ suite with Champagne and freshly-baked treats from the in-house bakery or a Champagne toast and fizzy foot soak, plus exfoliation. Colors of Love is a fun, creative class led by an expert in theater makeup featuring nontoxic paints that will have all eyes on you at the pool.
The Mi Amore Couple Experience at Azure Spa at the Riviera Palm Springs includes an exfoliating body scrub, invigorating soak, and deeply relaxing massage.
From Feb. 10–14, Feel Good Spa at Ace Hotel & Swim Club is offering massage lessons for two, a creative and interactive experience where couples learn professional massage techniques to use at home.
Spa La Quinta at La Quinta Resort & Club’s February specials include the Bubbly and Bestie Mani and Pedi, a fun way to get ready for a day of shopping or night of dancing with your best friend. Singles can enjoy a private garden bath while sipping on Champagne, followed by a relaxing full-body massage. The Couple’s Suite Treat includes a side-by-side couple’s massage in the private couple’s suite, followed by a soothing facial and a chilled glass of Champagne.
