YEAR ROUND LODGING PACKAGES

Rad Romance at the Roxbury! Whether you are trying to light a fire or rekindle a flame, the Rad Romance package is bound to ignite sparks. How about fine chilled champagne on ice, fresh exotic flowers, and a gourmet cheese platter? Your romance will then soar to a new height with a couples massage during which our therapist will teach you the techniques for giving each others’ bodies whatever they need… To entice your taste buds, you will dine at the area’s most scrumptious eatery, Peekamoose Restaurant, where Chef Devin Mills’ tasting menu is purported to provide aphrodisiac properties.

This package starts at $480 for two people in one of the Roxbury's studio rooms. Inquire for special holiday rates. Taxes and gratuities not included. This package is offered year round.

JUST ADDED: To REALLY get those sparks-a-poppin off the flames, we can arrange a horse-and-buggy ride around the village of Roxbury for you. The buggy is a beautifully restored 19th century handsome cab driven by a pair of equally handsome horses. Now if that ain't romantic, we don't know what is. Weather permitting. $100 extra.
