Head to Nyack, N.Y., for a weekend away with mom and enjoy luxury treatments and special touches from The Time Nyack. Located an hour from midtown Manhattan, guests of Time Nyack enjoy high design and casual luxury in a family-friendly atmosphere.

 

Just a ride away from the hustle and bustle of the city, enjoy the outdoor pool and grill, or take a quick walk into town perusing local shops and restaurants.

 

Welcome mom into the room with the bouquet of flowers provided with your stay, turn-down services, breakfast in bed and late check-out to keep the relaxing energy going even at the end of your stay.

 

Check with the concierge for fun activities in town, boat rides and local events. Use the code MOM while booking, valid for guests booking May 10–14.

 

The Ritz-Carlton New York, Westchester

Welcome the mothers in your life into spring and away for the weekend with a stay at The Ritz-Carlton New York, Westchester. Located in Westchester County, enjoy the blooming spring blossoms and vibrant scenery surrounding your stay.

 

Get out on the green of Maple Moor Golf Course, or head to the Westchester Wine & Food Festival for some spirits. Enjoy the spring weather and get out for some adventure with a scenic kayaking trip along the Hudson River before paying a visit to the friendly farm animals of Muscoot Farm.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Gets a New Rollercoaster

Myrtle Beach already has plenty of ways to entertain families, from 60 miles of beaches to the Carolina Opry and absolutely everything in between. But one spot families love to visit, Family Kingdom, is about to get a brand-new attraction, and we hope it will be unveiled before the kiddos head back to school.

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.
