Anyone planning a family or preparing for a new addition, you’re not just counting down the days until you have your bundle of joy, but also your remaining days of easier getaways and quick weekend trips. You don’t have to stray too far from home to have a fun and relaxing babymoon. Check out these hotel offers, or use them as a little inspiration for your own DIY pre-baby break.

 

City Stay

In case you haven’t heard the news, there’s another royal baby on the way. Since this one happens to be the first with American lineage, The Langham, Chicago is in the mood to celebrate. For any expecting parents needing a chic break or a quick weekend retreat, the luxury hotel on the Chicago River lets you honor the lucky baby with a special, limited-time Royal Babymoon offer. Take advantage of all the Langham’s high-end services, great location with fun surrounding city locales and 5-star everything in between for you last trip before you meet your new baby.

 

Couples enjoy an overnight stay in a deluxe room with thoughtful, relaxing services and amenities, including a special pre-natal couples massage at the Chuan Spa; tea for two at The Pavilion; exclusive gifts for your soon-to-be-born baby, such as a silver spoon from a luxury Fifth Avenue jeweler; and a Langham Teddy bear, as well as complimentary valet parking.

 

Rates for The Chicago Babymoon offer at The Langham, Chicago begin at $1,299.

 

Mountain Retreat

Over in the Poconos, The Lodge at Woodloch offers a Babymoon Escape set to pamper. Expecting parents, solo moms-to-be or even a group of girlfriends looking to vacation before the baby arrives, The Lodge at Woodloch is an easy distance from the tri-state area, while providing the elements of a complete spa-centric escape.

 

Receive your welcome package at check-in, complete with healthy baby food recipe cards, homemade baked goods from resident pastry chefs and a gift for expecting parents from Great Things Boutique. Head to your room to unpack and enjoy some sweet treats in the Cravings Basket, specifically designed for expecting moms.

 

There’s a host of prenatal spa treatments available, along with meditation classes and yoga sessions — all focusing on you and baby. Read through all the available classes and descriptions before booking or plan along with the events calendar.

 

Other Babymoon Experiences include your accommodations, $140 per person spa allowance, three daily meals, optional speakers and workshops, creative arts, group and individual fitness classes, cooking demos and select adventure excursions.

Celebrate the Holidays on Italy’s Lake Garda

Typically thought of as a summer escape, Lake Garda offers holiday festivities for all ages, making a trip well worth it during the off-season. Grand Hotel Fasano, a historical lakeside retreat, remains open beyond its traditional early-November closure this year to welcome guests for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. The hotel will remain open through Jan. 6, 2027.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
