Las Vegas may not be the first place that you think of to take a loved one for Valentine’s Day, but it should be. With a slew of top notch restaurants, insanely beautiful rooms and relaxing spas around every corner Las Vegas is the perfect romantic getaway.

The problem is getting there cheap enough. So I thought we could do a little bit of the leg work for you and see if we can put together a deal that makes sense.

The best place to start looking is Travelocity. Gigantic sites like Travelocity or Expedia move so many customers that sometimes you just can’t beat the deals that they list. Always check out their all inclusive before booking your trip elsewhere.

The only downside to these types of vacations is that they can be awfully restrictive. You have to fly and stay on certain days to get the best possible deals. If you are looking for something a little more flexible you will want to book your airfare and your hotel separately.

After a quick search here is a list of some of the best air line deals for the upcoming month.

• San Francisco to Las Vegas: $134 (United)
• Tucson to Las Vegas: $139 (US Airways)
• Oklahoma City to Las Vegas: $195 (Continental)
• Seattle to Las Vegas: $199 (Alaska)
• Indianapolis to Las Vegas: $209 (AirTran)
• Minneapolis to Las Vegas: $219 (Sun Country)
• Portland, OR, to Las Vegas: $219 (Alaska)
• Philadelphia to Las Vegas: $220 (AirTran)
• Boise to Las Vegas: $254 (multiple airlines)
• New Orleans to Las Vegas: $255 (American)
• San Antonio to Las Vegas: $277 (Frontier)
• New York to Las Vegas: $290 (Frontier)
• Atlanta to Las Vegas: $299 (AirTran)
• Boston to Las Vegas: $299 (US Airways)

For Canadian travelers Westjet is always offering seat sales.

So far we have only gotten you to Vegas now you need a place to stay. There are two sites I use to find great hotel deals. They are hotelscombined.com and hotels.com.

Hotelscombined.com is a search engine for travel sites. The idea is you enter dates and places that you want to go and they will search over 30 travel sites for you. Here is a small list of the hotels deals available from Feb.14-17th.

• Four Queens Casino and Hotel Las Vegas (Nevada) - $179 total for 3 nights.
• Fitzgeralds Casino & Hotel Las Vegas (Nevada)- $ 197 total for 3 nights.
• Tropicana Resort And Casino Hotel Las Vegas (Nevada)- $209.40 total for 3 nights.
• Circus Circus Hotel Las Vegas (Nevada)-  $299.85 total for 3 nights.

You can search the entire listings available by using the interactive search box below:

One of the things I did notice using hotelscombined is that 2 out of the 4 best deals that I have listed came directly from hotels.com.

Hotels.com is a very large hotel booking site. They broker deals directly with the hotels and then offer them at a discount to their customers. After a quick search using the same dates Feb 14^th-17^th we came across these deals.

• Stratosphere Tower Hotel – Average hotel room cost $103.36
• Tropicana Hotel and Casino – Average hotel room cost $97.45
• Bally's Las Vegas - Average hotel room cost $166.79

On the surface these deals may not seem that amazing but combined with hotels.com latest coupons the deals start to surface.

• $30 off with 5 night booking!
• $50 off with 8 night booking!

 Hotels.com also offers some amazing deals on hotels that reside just a little off the strip. Here is a direct link for them

Sweet Deals for Valentine's! Las Vegas as low as $27 - travel 2/8/08 to 2/18/08.

I hope I have been able to illustrate that by using the search tools that are freely available to anyone it is easy to find a great deal.
