February is a great time for romantic getaways, golf trips and healing spa vacations. Choose from tropical travel destinations, warm-weather getaways such as Arizona and Florida, or visit New Zealand and Australia in the Southern Hemisphere.
It's Summer in New Zealand in February
Lake Okareka Lodge in New Zealand is a beautiful getaway for couples who enjoy natural surroundings and five star service. From a personal chef who is available to prepare your meals, to luxury suites with lake views, Lake Okareka Lodge is an unforgettable vacation experience. Also in New Zealand, Cape Kidnappers is a famous golf travel destination where you can play golf with ocean views.
Arizona Golf in February
Golfers have several great travel destinations to choose from in February. Arizona is home to many golf resorts with spas, so if your partner is not a golfer, you can both enjoy your vacation getaway in your own way. JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort, Loews Ventana Canyon Resort and The Phoenician are all very good choices.
Travel to a Warm Pacific Island in February
Beach resorts in Tahiti are not easy to get to, but once you do it's easy to immerse yourself in the tropical surroundings and forget the winter weather you left at home. Many resorts offer beautiful spas that will let you relax and unwind just steps from the beach. A short plane ride from Tahiti, Bora Bora is a famous vacation destination, home to famous luxury resorts such as Hotel Bora Bora and Bora Bora Pearl Beach Resort.
Universal Orlando is a family destination with a lagoon style-pool and a sandy beach
Take the family to Orlando and stay at the Royal Pacific Resort. The resort is located within walking distance of Universal Studios® and Universal's Islands of Adventure® theme parks and the Universal CityWalk® entertainment complex. Kids will love the rides and parents will love the fact that guests of the Royal Pacific Resort can use UNIVERSAL EXPRESS (SM) ride access and bypass the regular attraction lines at both theme parks.
The Royal Pacific Resort has a huge lagoon style-pool with a sand beach and a Royal Bali interactive children's water play area. The resort offers complimentary water taxi rides (the easiest way to get there) to the Universal Orlando theme parks and CityWalk entertainment complex where the kids can play all day. Since parents need vacation time as well, the resort offers The Mariner's Club supervised children's activity center. Other activities include: beach volleyball, a putting green, game room, and weekly luaus in the Wantilan Luau Pavilion
The Royal Pacific Resort has 1,000 rooms, including 54 suites. Consider getting a Club Level Room, which gives you private access to the Royal Club Lounge serving continental breakfast, afternoon beer, wine and snacks, concierge service, as well as unlimited use of the fitness center. The resort offers a wide range of dining options, including Emeril Lagasse's Tchoup Chop restaurant. Family vacation perks for guests include: priority seating at select Universal Orlando® restaurants and shows. You can charge purchases with your resort ID card, and because no one wants to carry bags on rides, complimentary delivery of in-park purchases to guest rooms.
Luxury Travel With Your Pet
Luxury travel is for pets too, winter or summer. Loews Hotels offers several "Pampered Pets" Packages at many of its hotels and resorts. The Pampered Pets packages include a free movie for the kids, dinner for two at the hotel restaurant and a room service meal for your pet. Some of the Loews hotels offering the Pampered Pets package include the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort in Tucson, the Portofino Bay Hotel, and the Hard Rock Hotel which are all fun to visit in February.
