The Only Thing These 'New Moon' Hotels Are Missing is Edward Cullen

Update: Vampires in the Caribbean? They can be if you book the Westin St. John's New Moon package. Details after the jump.
We know that you already have your New Moon tickets safely tucked away inside your Hannah Montana wallet (just behind your "High School Musical" pocket calendar) but if you want the teen vampire love saga to last beyond the 90-minutes of the film, consider a New Moon hotel package from one of these hotels.
The Hotel Triton in San Francisco is inviting guests to explore the gothic side of Nob Hill with a pair of tickets to the Vampire Tours of San Francisco and then spend the night relaxing in one of their guest rooms (with blacked-out windows) with a bottle of red wine and cherry-filled chocolates. AMC movie passes, a New Moon welcome amenity and a strange choice of either sunscreen (if you're a vampire) or a garlic necklace (for mortals.) Package prices start at $103 a night and you can book them online here. While it is available next weekend, the package is sold out tomorrow and Saturday.

Keep Walking to 'Scotchtober' at Willows Lodge

We hear the word "Rocktober," and we're instantly transported back to our Philly youth, when the 93.3 WMMR radio DJ's would belt it out with a reverb echo effect every chance they got. It kinda sucked, because October was (and still is) our favorite month, and the cheese factor of these overly schticky on-air personalities has stuck in our head for years. We'll get over it. Le sigh.
Instead of "Rocktober," some folks have, dare we say, more civilized visions of what this autumnal month means. For many, it's "Oktoberfest," a 16-day festival centered about consuming copious amounts of beer, schweinsbraten and sauerkraut. Oh yeah, and wearing sexy lace-up dirndls. But at Barking Frog at Willows Lodge in Woodinville (Seattle's answer to wine country, although most of the AVA's grapes are actually grown in Eastern Washington), it can only mean one, high-proof thing -- "Scotchtober."

Hotel Murano Rewards Twitter Followers With Discounts and Free WiFi

Any hotel that links directly to TripAdvisor from their homepage has a lot of gall. Guest ratings can sometimes make or break a hotel's reputation, but if service is up to snuff and they know it, then no harm done.
Not only does Tacoma's Hotel Murano include said link on their website (with predictably positive ratings, save for a couple service stumbles), but they've gone the Twitter route (@hotel_murano) to stay connected with potential customers. While you won't find gossipy tweets about what goes on behind the concierge desk, you will find need-to-know information about insider deals, like this recent post advertising $79 rates (marked down from $99) plus free Wi-Fi for bookings from October 15-18. You'll have to make your reservation by the 15th to get the discount, so commence rapid fire clicking now.

Cheers for Beers at Skamania Lodge’s Beer Weekend

Oh yeah. It’s officially beer festival season. Celebrate the almighty process of fermentation at Skamania Lodge’s inaugural Celebration of Beer Weekend, being held October 24 & 25th. You’re probably asking yourself, where the hell is Skamania Lodge? We did too, until we moved to the great Evergreen State and honed our lodge knowledge.
Think Columbia River Gorge mountain lodge meets Northern Exposure environs less than an hour east of Portland, OR. (The hit series early 90’s was actually filmed about three hours from the Stevenson, WA resort.) The Pacific Northwest may still be figuring out a few things when it comes to winemaking (Pinot freaks in Willamette Valley excluded), but has nailed the art of craft-brewing.
Beer geeks and aspiring enthusiasts can sample more than a dozen of the region’s best breweries over the hop-fueled fall weekend. The try before you buy dynamic is especially useful for someone like us who is always daunted when facing the obscene number of microbrew options in the beer aisle at any Pacific Northwest grocery store

Over-the-Top Romance in Mountain Setting at Salish Lodge & Spa

Joining the menu of Salish Lodge & Spa’s seasonal/special spa offerings is the recently debuted Outdoor Moonlight Massage and Hidden Terrace Dinner. In a moment of desperate need of an easy overnight getaway, we packed up our pooch, made the short, sweet and scenic 40-minute drive from Seattle to Snoqualmie and checked into the Condé Nast Traveler 2009 Gold List—World’s Best Places to Stay property to check out the new spa service.

Up Where We Belong at Cedar Creek Treehouse

Get high, 50 feet in the sky at Cedar Creek Treehouse. We pinky-swear that the octagonal cabin digs atop this 200-year old Western Red Cedar tree are perhaps the coolest accommodations you’ve ever seen.
Guests brave a towering, five-story giant helix (a.k.a. “Stairway to Heaven”) that leads to the treehouse. The treehouse sleeps up to five people comfortably, with additional space on the fourth floor stairwell observation floor and camping spots below. Don’t expect amenities – electricity is provided by a 12-volt battery, limited supplies of water comes from a well in Ashford, and your fridge is nothing more than your standard issue tailgating ice chest cooler.
