Toasting Mom with a MOMosa Vacation in Destin, FL

We’re celebrating Moms! This has been a tough year and Mom has been doing it all! She's the chef, the housekeeper, the launderer, the teacher, the chauffeur, the cheerleader, the coach and so much more. We know the stress of this last year has added up and taken a toll on Mom's mental and physical health. That’s why we created the MOMosa Vacation!

Plan a trip to the beaches of South Walton and Destin, Florida this fall (September - November 19) and take advantage of our MOMosa Vacation package, which combines our low fall rates on vacation rentals with a refreshing MOMosa drink. The MOMosa vacation package includes a bottle of sparkling wine, three Ocean Spray mixers, govino flutes, and a soft-side cooler.

Our goal is to help Moms justify taking time for themselves. Whether escaping solo, with girlfriends, or with a special family member (mother, daughter, aunt, or cousin), we’ve got the perfect recipe for relaxation and rejuvenation along the beaches of South Walton and Destin, Florida. Here are our suggestions:

Solo Retreat. 

Sometimes Mom just needs time alone—that’s when traveling to the beach solo is in order. It is scientifically proven that having time to yourself is critical for growth and personal development. Instead of worrying about the needs, interests, opinions of others, it’s important to take time to focus on yourself. For a solo trip, we recommend a stay in a one-bedroom vacation rental or a comfortable room at Beachside Inn. With our friendly, local team members on-site, you’ll feel safe at Beachside Inn located in the heart of the charming Crystal Beach neighborhood. On-site Camille’s Café is the perfect spot to start the day with a coffee or fresh smoothie and Camille’s restaurant serves the freshest seafood and sushi in town for dinner. During the day, Mom can rent a beach cruiser and head out with the wind in her hair to explore Scenic Gulf Drive or spend lazy days at the beach resting, reading, and enjoying the solitude.

Mother-Daughter Reunion.

Do you have a special connection with your mother, daughter, or aunt? This may be the perfect time to plan an escape to rekindle those family bonds. A beach condominium is a great choice for a mother-daughter getaway. Select from beach resorts including Jade East Towers, Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort, Mediterranea, or Sanctuary at Redfish, among many others. Beyond the beach, consider attending a workshop at Artist Mary Hong’s Shard Shop where you can create an original piece of art out of shards of glass or enjoy the health benefits of Pilates or Yoga class, or a spa day (Lilliana Spa at Hotel Effie, Serenity by the Sea spa at the Hilton Sandestin or Salamander Spa at the Henderson are among our favorites). For dinner, Moms can savor the sunset and a delectable meal at a Gulf-front restaurant, including Bud & Alleys in Seaside, Pompano Joe’s in Miramar Beach, The Crab Trap in Crystal Beach or The Back Porch Restaurant in Destin.

Girls Getaway.

There are times in our lives when connecting with your best girlfriends is just what the doctor ordered. While only you and your friends know when it’s safe to reconnect in person, when the time comes, a Destin MOMosa vacation is waiting.  For this trip, we recommend renting a vacation rental home that is the perfect size for your crew. This will give you space to come together and reconnect as well as spend time alone refreshing your batteries. When you’re not at the beach, you and your friends can enjoy shopping at area galleries and boutiques or at Silver Sands Premium Outlets, which features more than 100 designer outlet stores. To up the relaxation quotient, book a spa day at the Salamander Spa in Crystal Beach. This luxury spa overlooks Henderson Beach State Park and features a full menu of spa treatments along with a wet room and lavender room—a lovely area to gather and continue the celebration with lavender bubbles! For a fun girls' night out, head to the Destin Harbor where lively bars and restaurants are ready to welcome your group for a night of fresh seafood and live music.
