A re you looking for the ultimate relaxing vacation? Look no further than a trip to an exclusive spa.

The ultimate spa destination in the United States is without a doubt beautiful Hawaii. With its sandy beaches and exotic vegetation, this island state is an ideal relaxation location. And, luckily, a romantic spa getaway in tropical Hawaii is more affordable than you may think. The Fairmont Orchid Hotel on the big island offers spa vacation packages starting at less than $600 per night for couples. Packages include two hours of solo spa treatments, a couples' massage, Hawaiian coffee exfoliating facials for two, and three nights at the five-star hotel. You can also add attractions, restaurant outings and other spa treatments to upgrade your package. You'd pay a lot more for all of these elements individually.
 
If you'd like to travel somewhere more exotic than Hawaii, check out spa vacation packages in Thailand. This Asian paradise is home to multiple spa resorts that attract international customers with their relatively cheap rates. For example, the Sheraton Hua Hin Resort in Thailand offers vacation packages from about $220 per night. Packages include accommodations, daily breakfasts and a one-hour massage. Adding on spa treatments to this package is affordable, too. A day-long personal spa treatment costs about $300.
 
Of course, you don't have to travel around the world to find great spa vacations. There are plenty of amazing spas in the continental U.S. that offer great package deals. Check out the Spectacular Spa Package at the Hilton in Destin, Florida. It includes three spa treatments, a spa lunch, luxury accommodations and complimentary fitness center access. All of this costs about $150 per night. And at the Hilton in Destin, an added bonus is 24-hour access to the white sand beaches right outside your door.
 
If Florida is too far, think about a spa getaway in your own home town. Spa vacation packages can be found in most major American cities. At the Intercontinental Montelucia Resort and Spa in Arizona, for example, you and a friend can indulge in the girlfriend getaway package, which includes four spa treatments, two manicures and pedicures, two bath treatments, access to the exclusive rooftop pool, lunch and breakfast.

Wherever you end up for your spa vacation, make sure you take the time to savor every treatment. It may be best to spread out your package treatments over a few days so each one is memorable. A vacation at a spa is all about pampering yourself, so do what feels best for you. If you can share your trip with a partner or good friend, it will be even better. So make a spa getaway a goal that you plan to fulfill at some point in your life. Even if it takes you ten years to find the time and money to do it, a vacation at a spa is something memorable that's worth doing.
