Swell Last Minute Rate at Possibly Sweltering Red Mountain Spa

Where: 1275 East Red Mountain Circle [map], Ivins, UT, United States, 84738

You'll have to act fast to grab this one at the Red Mountain Spa in Utah's Red Rock Country: It's only good this month. So, two weeks to go. The rate, $209 per person per night, is more than one-third lower than the lowest rate we found for September. (That was $316 per person per night.)

For Sunday through Thursday night stays, you can shave off another 5%. Another added incentive for this last minute getaway: $59 massages. Two hours north of Las Vegas, the 82-room Red Mountain Spa tilts personal growth as well as active, with optional personal coach and detox programs. (Note to train-wreck chemical overindulgers: This is more nutritional sort.)

The rooms and spa, Sagebrush, were designed by Judi Testani. Sagebrush looks especially hip with its lime-green-and-black theme. Her Scottsdale-based firm also did The Sanctuary at Camelback Mountain.

If you haven't heard of Red Mountain, you may have read about it in the travel press. It's gotten plenty of ink over the past year or two. Condé Nast Traveler readers voted Red Mountain one of top ten destination spas for 2007.

We're mindful heat could curtail outdoor activities. When we checked with a reservationist this week, she reported that the highest temperatures have been in the nineties. One day, the mercury hit 102 degrees. On especially hot days, the staff schedules hikes and other outdoor activities for the earlier and later (and cooler) times of the day. If you're a swimmer, you're safe. There's an indoor pool.
