Romantic Valentine’s Day Getaways and Activities in Minnesota 

When the snow sparkles across Minnesota and cozy nights set in early, there’s no better time to plan a romantic Valentine’s Day getaway.

Whether you’re craving a weekend away or a night of celebration close to home, here are some of the best ways to make this Valentine’s Day, or month, unforgettable.

If you’re planning to explore beyond the cities, Minnesota’s winter wonders set a beautiful scene for romance. For some true R&R, book a spa treatment and stay overnight at Just For Me Spa in Stillwater, a wine tasting at Sovereign Estate Winery in Waconia, or a scenic drive along the North Shore complete with fireside dining in Duluth. No matter where you go, Minnesota knows how to make winter feel magical.

If you prefer to keep it local and are looking for a comfortable, modern retreat, the Courtyard by Marriott Roseville is the perfect Valentine’s Day destination. Conveniently located between Minneapolis and St. Paul, it places you near great dining, shopping, and entertainment—all while offering a peaceful escape from the bustle.

This year, the hotel’s Valentine’s Day Sweetheart’s Package is designed for effortless romance. Guests will enjoy comfortable accommodation, a bottle of wine upon arrival and dinner for two. Be sure to ask if a late check out is available so you can savor a slow morning together. Get settled and you’ve got a night straight out of a romance novel.

Another local hotel offering a Sweetheart Package just west of the cities is the Homewood Suites West End/St. Louis Park. Not only will you feel at home (without the responsibility), but you will also be welcomed with a box of fine chocolates and a $50 gift card to Boketto. Spend your evening exploring everything else The Shops at West has to offer, or for an after-dinner treat, drive just a few minutes to Uptown Minneapolis for cocktails and dessert at one of the city’s intimate lounges. 

Both hotel packages run all month long, giving couples flexibility to plan a romantic stay anytime in February. 

A well-planned Valentine’s getaway is about connection, comfort, and a touch of indulgence—and these hotel packages make it easy to craft that experience. Whether you choose a city adventure in St. Louis Park, a serene night in Roseville, or a day trip to one of Minnesota’s charming spots, your romantic escape is just a click or drive away.
