We didn’t want to come across as too anti-mushy from our Uniquely Romantic Valentine’s Deals 2010 roundup, so we found an extra romantic hotel deal from Joie de Vivre hotel group. As California’s largest boutique hotel collection, JDV made sure to have a sweet and romantic hotel deal—with an eco-friendly “green twist”—at all 35 of their California hotels for the remainder of 2010.
By booking the earth-friendly “Sowing the Seeds of Love” romance package, you’ll be treating the California earth to its own gift with a tree planted on behalf by EcoUnit (no digging required). Continue the green theme by swapping a bottle of bubbly for a Bonterra Organic California wine and a box of chocolates for some local organic honey. You can’t get much sweeter than that.
“Sowing the Seeds of Love” Valentine’s Day Romance Package includes:
- One night stay at one of Joie de Vivre’s 35 California hotels
- A tree planted on your behalf by EcoUnit
- A bottle of Bonterra Organic California wine
- An “Ecodisiac,” think: aphrodisiac with a green twist. Each hotel will be providing its own ecodisiac—from organic chocolates to local organic honey.
Dates: Good thru Dec. 28, 2010.

Amidst the incessantly damp and dark winter weather, many travelers seek warm winter destinations—travel hot spots where the sun actually shines and the number 30 equates to SPF and not the temperature.
