2 Better Than 1
We’re not sure about the name—sounds like a rejected Spice Girls tune—but this treatment is all about floral sweetness. Rose, orange blossom and jasmine oils are blended together for a massage that focuses on what they claim are your sexy chakras.

A Chocolatier Affair
Chocolate and roses may be the cheesiest combo ever, but who cares? You’re going to smell good enough to eat after Japanese spa Ikeda is done with you. They start with a white chocolate body scrub, put you in a hot and steamy red rose bath, then top it off with a dark chocolate deep tissue and regular massage; all in a VIP couple suite. Available February 1-28.
$388 for 120 minutes at Ikeda Spa
Best of Friends
For those who don’t need a partner to make them happy on Valentine’s Day, this package for BFFs includes matching facials and Damai’s signature orchid essence massages. They’ll also throw in a wholesome lunch at Oasis by the Grand Hyatt pool. Not too shabby.
$750 for 180 minutes at Damai Spa
Port of Call: Ko Phi Phi
Clear a foggy head with Nimble/Knead’s Thai Thai Aroma massage (a killer combination of Thai-style stretching and a tropical-scented rubdown), a lemongrass body scrub and a comforting milk bath in a private cabin. There’s also a “Bali” version of this package ($259 for 120 minutes), which omits the body scrub and swaps out the massage for a Balinese-style treatment. Both available February 8-23.
$299 for 135 minutes at Nimble/Knead
Senja Sunyi Couple’s Ritual
For something a touch more tropical, this package starts with a peony and plum blossom scrub, a Senja Sunyi massage—a blend of Chinese and Javanese massage styles—and an energizing kaffir lime bath. Afterwards, kick back and take in the view with afternoon tea at The Knolls at Capella.
$688 for 150 minutes at Auriga Spa
Spa by Night
Take your pick from aroma oil massage, Swedish massage or a cucumber body scrub at Spa Botanica, then spend the rest of the day frolicking around the Spa Garden, which has lots of little pools, waterfalls, labyrinths and a tea garden to play in, before a four-course dinner at The Garden restaurant. Available February 13-15.
$556 for 60 minutes at Spa Botanica
Suite Romance
If you really want to splurge, this is it. In a private couple’s suite, you start off with a soothing foot treat, followed by a soak in the tub and vanilla and honey sugar scrub. Finally, there’s a full body massage with blended frankincense, mandarin and ginger essential oils. We like the combination of sugar and spice.
$1,020 for 160 minutes at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental
The Valentine’s Day Gift of Renewal
The Westin’s new Heavenly Spa rolls out a V-day package with all the bells and whistles: a massage, your choice of body scrub, a facial (a men’s one is available, too), a floral bath, plus some healthy snacks. You’ll even get “exclusive use of a couple room for an additional 30 minutes” because clearly you’ll be in the mood for some alone time after. Available February 1-28.
