A Romantic Escape

The Durango Hot Springs Offer the Perfect Couples Retreat

A couples retreat is the ideal way to unwind and connect. Nestled in the picturesque Animas Valley, the geothermal mineral pools at Durango Hot Springs Resort & Spa provide a naturally romantic setting designed for relaxation, connection, and rejuvenation. From first dates to maintaining a long-lasting relationship, quality time together helps couples strengthen bonds, create memories, and connect. Here, we’ve curated the perfect day to sweep you off your feet.

  1. Start the day with a couples massage or a facial treatment from a skilled aesthetician. Soaking in hot mineral water before a spa treatment allows the body to relax and release tension, amplifying the benefits of the treatment, and returning to the hot springs afterward extends the benefits, nourishing your skin and soothing muscles. 

  2. Durango Hot Springs waters contain 32 minerals that naturally occur in the human body, such as magnesium and calcium. The body absorbs these healthful minerals, supporting relaxation and muscle relief. You and your partner will thoroughly enjoy the endorphins this creates.

  3. For a private soaking experience, reserve a private cedar Ofuro tub. Each tub is filled with geothermal mineral water, and couples can adjust the water temperature to their preferences. The tubs are shoulder-deep and ideal for couples to enjoy in solitude. 

  4. Cap the day off enjoying fireside drinks and conversation surrounded by mountain vistas.
