February is very-high for Da Lat.
February is Da Lat's driest month alongside January, with slightly warmer days. The major caveat is Tết Lunar New Year (late January to mid-February, varies by year) — Vietnam's biggest annual holiday where most restaurants, cafes, shops, and even some attractions close 3-7 days. Date varies — check before booking. Outside the Tết window, February conditions are essentially identical to January: 23°C / 73°F days + 10°C / 50°F evenings + 15mm rainfall. Valentine's Day (Feb 14) brings honeymoon traffic — Dalat Palace Heritage + Ana Mandara Villas + Swiss-Belresort Tuyen Lam book 4-6 weeks ahead at honeymoon-package rates. Le Rabelais Valentine's tasting menu + Elephant Bar cocktails is the canonical setup. Early February (Feb 1-10 pre-Tết) or late February (Feb 25-28 post-Tết) is the smart-money window — same weather, 25% lower rates than peak.
