I've written a few posts on Las Vegas and now that the trip is planned I am planning a surprise for my husband while we are there for his 40th. I have heard that Paris has couples massages...has anyone been there for that or any massages around there for that matter? He is not one for those things but he would definitely be into it if I were with him. Any thoughts??

Yeah, there was this guy in a Speedo at the mgm pool offering free massages....

Sorry, just kidding.

Hmm, no, I don't think so...guys in speedo just don't cut it for me. Any one else????

Had a great massage (and also a seaweed body wrap) at the spa at Bellagio that was probably the best EVER. Don't know about a couples massage though. Personally, I sort of like my time alone being pampered like a Queen and although I love my DH without question...spa-time is ME-time.

I just asked my husband and he said he would LOVE it if I got the massage while he did some gambling and he would meet me afterwards
I don't know how many men are interested in going to Las Vegas and having a massage, even with the wife right there..This will be interesting to see what the guys here say

We had a good couples massage at Bellagio. We just got back from the new spa "Bath House," at "THE Hotel at Mandalay Bay." It was a great spa, but I don't think they have any "Couple's Massages." I went 4 days in a row, and ALL of my therapists were very good, and that doesn't always happen!

Mandalay Bay also has a good Spa.

I second the nod to the Bathhouse, wife and I got separate treatments. We spent about half a day there between treatments, the gym, and the general hangout area with the plunge pools and eucalyptus steam shower. The only co-ed part, though, was the gym.

Thanks for the feedback. I will definitely look up the site suggested. While my husband likes to gamble, he is not one to do so alone. On the other hand, he may just enjoy hanging out by the pool while I get a massage myself.

Any other experiences out there? By the way, any suggestions about romance in Vegas aside from the "second wedding" thing? Dinner cruises, sunset things, etc...

We've had several dining experiemces I could classify as "Romantic." Dining in a BOOTH at Shanghai Lily's in Mandalay Bay. For maximum romance, go before your reservation and have a cocktail in the bar (or go for a post-dinner drink). Picasso, Jasmine and Prime Steakhouse at Bellagio have "Romantic" atmospheres. I always consult when making reservations on table location for maxiumum romance. Even in a noisy resturant (like Prime), there are often cozy little corners. I think finding a quiet little nook in a bustling restaurant is kinda romantic.....adds to the excitement: the world is whirling around you, and you two are caught up in your own little romantic world! MMmm-mmmm!

I also think just spending time hanging out by the pool doing nothing can be romantic.....and Vegas has many dreamy poolscapes....combined with a vivid imagination, its a winning combination!

I don't know how much time or if you have a car, but if you want to get OUT of the city, for a stark contrast and tons of romantic desert atmosphere you can drive an hour away to Nevada State Parks "Valley of Fire." The colors and rock formations are absolutely amazing! It probably is getting pretty hot out there now, so I would either get an extremely early start (best) or go for sunset, for the last few hours of daylight. Closer, but not nearly as dramatic, but still romantic is Red Rocks (only 15-20 minutes away). You can tour Spring Mountain Ranch which has a colorful, romantic history.

Thanks for the recommendations, SloPugs. I will definitely takes these along with us!
