Salishan Spa and Golf Resort, Lincoln City
If the unbeatable views of Siletz Bay don’t get you at this 200-acre coastal lodge, the indulgent spa treatments will. While not cozying up next to the fireplace in your room or suite or enjoying the view from your private balcony, spend your time exploring the whirlpool hot tub, nearby nature trails, mountain bike course, and fitness center. Right now the resort is offering 33 percent off its best available rates for stays of three nights starting on a Monday. February 14 falls on a Tuesday this year, which is a sign you and your sweetie should duck out of work to take advantage of this deal with a coastal vacation.

Lithia Springs Resort, Ashland
February is a great time to visit Southern Oregon—it tends to be warmer down there than in Portland, and it's pre-wildfire season, too. Our pick is Ashland, where culture, local fare, unique mineral water spa treatments, a sweet local ski resort, and nature hikes abound. After exploring the area, the Lithia Springs Resort awaits, with more than four acres of lush gardens, a koi pond, fountains, gazebos, a spa and an expansive wine bar. Right now, the resort is offering an "Ultimate Romance Package," featuring a bottle of bubbly and local chocolates, a $50 voucher toward dinner at Larks in downtown Ashland (offering home-style comfort food like Southern fried chicken breast, apple cider brined and grilled pork chop, and more), and a complimentary breakfast at the resort.

Atticus Hotel
Over the past decade, downtown McMinnville has become synonymous with quaint luxury. No place embodies the posh romance of this midsize wine country town better than Atticus Hotel, which is the perfect home base for exploring all that the region has to offer. Spend the weekend lounging in Pendleton bathrobes, or, take one of the hotel's signature, Dutch-style tandem bicycles out for a spin. McMinnville's restaurant scene rivals that of Portland, with offerings from newly minted icons like Okta and Humble Spirit. Stop in at the nearby Granary District, where vineyards, breweries, and retailers have reclaimed town's defunct industrial and farm buildings to provide a unique, all-in-one visitor experience.
