Luxury

Go all out before your little one arrives with an over-the-top getaway. Babymoons, or a relaxing retreat before your baby arrives, are a great way to reconnect, unwind and luxuriate in those last few moments before parenthood.

 

Looking for a domestic destination with the allure of a tropical getaway? Look no further than Florida. Yes, Florida, with its Key Largo bungalows and Palm Beach lifestyle allows you to relax miles away from reality for a little while.

 

Reap the rewards from the royal baby with the Royal Baby-Moon package at The Brazilian Court Hotel in Palm Beach. Available through June 30, beginning at $6,930 for a three-night stay, guests enjoy a swath of luxury offerings fit for royalty.

 

Inspired by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s own baby journey, the Royal Baby-Moon package offers an impressive lineup of experiences and takeaways.

 

Mothers-to-be enjoy an in-room prenatal massage and mani/pedi; a bespoke necklace created with mom, dad and baby’s birthstones; a private organic baby food cooking lesson; pregnancy pillow; basket of goodies, including a wide variety of snacks to hit every craving; a plush kangaroo toy; a Bonpoint giftbox for baby and self-care gift set for Mom; and relaxing bubble bath with fragrant oils, soothing music, a book and anything else mom might need to unwind.

For something a bit more luxurious (okay, a lot more), the Royal Babymoon at Bungalows Key Largo in Key Largo begins at $29,000, based on double occupancy for a seven-night stay. Now with that price tag, guests can be sure they will be given the royal treatment. And by royal treatment, we mean arrival via private seaplane, helicopter, Rolls Royce Cullinan or Range Rover — whatever best suits the parents-to-be.

 

Once arrived in style, expecting parents enjoy private waterfront bungalow accommodations, complete with a personal butler. Some over-the-top, butler-centric tasks include a Cravings Concierge to attend to mom’s every snack request and a bath butler, tasked with drawing nightly aromatherapy baths in the outdoor tub.

 

Other amenities in this luxurious getaway include a daily 60-minute Neroli Blossom pre-natal massage at Zen Garden Spa; personal yoga instructor for daily morning practice; private sunset cruise for two, complete with ‘mocktails’ for mom and rich sweets; a romantic five-course dinner on the beach by candlelight; Bump Shots, or a maternity photoshoot; a silver spoon, frame and rattle all by Tiffany & Co.; a gift basket for baby, including Bungalows Key Largo onesies; and late check-out, allowing guests to ease into their trip back home. Booking and travel is available June 30–Dec. 30 for expecting parents.
