Dragging your feet over Valentine’s planning? Here’s a destination idea: A two-night Valentine’s stay at CostaBaja Resort & Spa, on the Sea of Cortez earns a third night on the house. Choose from villa accommodations with private balconies and terraces, and enjoy amenities including a stunning holistic spa. Each treatment and therapy ritual begins with a choice of blended, signature essential oils, and includes the use of traditional Mayan copal incense to help achieve harmony and relaxation. The treatment menu features wellness journeys including the Damiana, Harmonization and Liberation rituals.

Explore the Espiritu Santo Island UNESCO World Heritage Bio-Reserve via kayak or boat, or slip beneath the water’s surface to swim and snorkel among sea lions and glittering fish. Back on land, embark on an off-road desert expedition, explore a cactus sanctuary, visit ancient cave paintings or enjoy a round or two at the resort’s Gary Player-designed course. Dine at Steinbeck’s, the property’s open-air restaurant, where top Mexican chef Alejandro Villagomez — featured on the ASOB (Adventures South of the Border) cable television series Chef on the Water — whips up the freshest local ingredients. Pair dinner with a bottle or two from the extensive wine list, or your choice of over 400 tequilas.
