This summer’s biggest lifestyle trend: doing less. That mindset applies to family travel, too, with Slow Mom Summer emerging online. Moms are rejecting overscheduled itineraries and high-pressure vacations while seeking out slower, more intentional experiences.

 

Here’s some inspo for a Slow Mom Summer escape:

 

Treasure Beach Village

Opened March 1 on Grace Bay Beach, Beaches Turks and Caicos’ brand-new Treasure Beach Village marks the brand’s first-ever all-suite village, purpose-built with larger families in mind.

Amenities include a 15,000-square-foot pool, Starfish Cinema, six new dining concepts, complimentary Kids Camps and endless included activities.

 

The Meadows on Rock Creek

A nature-forward escape can be found in Western Montana at The Meadows on Rock Creek, a luxury all-inclusive guest ranch on 2,000 acres. Ten private cabins overlook 1.8 miles of Rock Creek. The rate covers three ranch-inspired gourmet meals per day; beer and wine; and activities like horseback riding, fly fishing, archery and sapphire mining.

 

Lamangata Luxury Surf Resort

Sitting 1,200 feet above the Pacific Ocean in the hills of Lagunas de Barú, Lamangata Luxury Surf Resort is a boutique, all-inclusive, six-suite hideaway. The all-inclusive stays cover daily meals made with local ingredients, surf instruction tailored to each guest’s level, video analysis sessions and guided access to the region’s surf breaks.

On Location: Experience The Real-Life Settings of Your Favorite Films and TV Shows

Set-jetting is more than just a cute play on words. It’s a travel concept that lets you visit the real-life settings of some of your favorite movies and television shows. At one time you had to go someplace like Universal Studios in Hollywood to visit your favorite movie and television show sets. While you can still take studio tours (the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in London is the place to go if you are a diehard fan of the Harry Potter franchise), these days there are filming locations all over the world, and the tourism industry makes visiting them in person as easy as buying a plane ticket.

Young Explorers Experience the Arctic with Hapag-Lloyd Cruises

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises offers something for every traveler, even the youngest ones with its Young Explorers program. Rather than traditional lessons, the program encourages children to explore, ask questions and make their own discoveries. For example, on voyages to destinations like Iceland, Svalbard and Greenland, young guests experience the Arctic through Zodiac rides, shore excursions, wildlife encounters and hands-on learning. Experienced expedition experts, including glaciologist Benjamin Schröter, accompany Young Explorers and help brings subjects, such as oceans, glaciers and polar ecosystems, to life.
