A 45-minute Coffee Scrub and Chocolate Wrap starts the treatment and works to stimulate the lymphatic system and rehydrate the skin. Continue with a 75-minute Aroma Golden Bits Massage, infused with ylang ylang, frankincense & patchouli to get your skin ready for a night of celebration. The indulging experience also includes a three-course healthy lunch served poolside for your rest and relaxation.

WHAT: “Ignite the Night” Suite Sleepovers at The Mira Hong Kong
WHY: When you and your partner have already visited all the best suites in the world, you might think there is little that can make the experience more special. This Valentine’s Day, you can personalise a passion-filled staycation to fulfil your significant other’s every wish and desire. You can pick from the “Pure Romance”, “Suite Seduction”, “Bubbles & Spa” or “Suite Feast” packages. All suites will be tailored to your celebration, and the stay includes a buffet breakfast for two and a bottle of Moët & Chandon Rosé Champagne. You can select either the Couples Suite or upgrade to the hotels’ more spacious rooms. We recommend the Spa Suite, which features an in-room private jacuzzi just for you lovebirds.
