Four Twitter deals for Valentine's Day getaways
You may not be able to say how you feel in 140 characters or less, but you sure can get leads on the best Valentine's Day experience that way. So, instead of tweeting a feeling, use the white-hot social media platform to grab the top travel specials for the most romantic day of the year. Several resorts are running Twitter-only Valentine's Day specials this year, so follow the right people, and you'll be able to wow your better half this year.1. @BalHarbourFL
2. @FairmontNewport
Look for a room rate of $199 a night at the Fairmont Newport with its "Twitter-patter" package. You'll stay in a junior suite, enjoy breakfast on your private balcony and receive plush robes adorned with the names of you and your guest (perfect for Twitter nerds like @tjohansmeyer and his wife, mommy-blogger, @ljpimberton -- I'm seriously kicking this around, just for the robes). Other amenities, from high-speed internet access to valet parking and champagne are covered, as well. And, the window is wide: you can stay from the beginning of February through the end of March. Get the booking code from @FairmontNewport or @FairmontHotels.
3. @LandingsStLucia
Who thought you could get a great wedding deal on Twitter? This RockResort is putting its best foot forward with the "Twitter Bells" package, which you can find by following @LandingsStLucia. You can save up to 25 percent with rates starting at $564 a night for a six-night stay as part of your wedding getaway. Enjoy a ceremony on the beach with a decorated wedding arch, floral arrangements and a bouquet and boutonniere. Your wedding dinner will be prepared for by Executive Chef Richard Tonks, and you'll eat it on your luxurious "Tweet Suite" terrace. You'll also pick up breakfast and lunch daily and evening champagne turndown service. You'll need to tie the knot by May 11, 2010.
4. @ArrabelleVail
Do you crave powder? The Arrabelle at Vail Square's "Sweet Tweet for Two" package will get you a two-night stay at a discount of up to 30 percent, if you follow @ArrabelleVail. You'll be greeted with champagne, roses and chocolate covered strawberries, and during your stay, you'll enjoy an 80-minute couples massage, a Tweethearts tubing session and breakfast every day. The package is available through the end of ski season (April 17, 2010), with rates starting at $465 a night.

Man that deal at the Fairmont is super cheap- If it weren't right down the street from the office I might consider it...
There's some excellent opportunities in Las Vegas too. Red Rock Resort is offering some pretty killer deals with their own V-Day Vacation Packages: http://www.redrocklasvegas.com/hotel/hotel_packages.php
