Babymoons offer parents-to-be the final opportunity for a relaxing escape before embarking on one of life’s greatest adventures. Let our own crew of babymooners craft your perfect holiday.
- Prioritise relaxation with eco lodges, remote chalets & sunny villas
- Holiday stress-free with our experts who know the best and safest places to travel for expectant mothers
- Tailor-made babymoons with 24/7 support across Europe, Asia, the Americas and Africa
A babymoon is the last holiday taken by expectant couples before the birth of their first child (although that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a getaway before your second or third, especially with our Explorers holidays.)
Pregnancy can be uncomfortable, and a luxury babymoon is a wonderful way to enjoy some well-earned pampering. Scott Dunn’s handpicked babymoon hotels offer a wide choice of luxurious extras to make your holiday really special. There are prenatal spa treatments, ache-relieving massages and relaxation rooms, as well as plenty for the father-to-be too.
With a highly personalised service, we’ll have you staying in small, intimate boutique hotels or on a quiet tropical beach. Although if you’ve had enough relaxation, we can always arrange a little adventure! Just think about what would feel best, and let our team handle the rest.
Best Babymoon Destinations
Where you go for your babymoon should be a mix of finding a place where you can truly unwind but also make the most of travelling together as a couple before the arrival of your little one. While city escapes always offer an air of romance, we find that remote escapes offer just the same, with the perfect addition of wellness and adventure.
…. In Europe
Babymoons in Europe are some of the most popular, with Europe being a year-round destination and offering a range of escapes, from coastal glamour in the south of France to remote lodges in Iceland.
Visit Puglia, Italy for incredible food and relax in the private villas at Borgo Egnazia, where the entire resort feels like a local village, and spend your days soaking in the rays of southern Italy. For the ultimate wellness retreat, the Torfhus Retreat in Iceland is the pinnacle of ecolodge babymoons, with its secluded off-grid location in the Golden Circle of Iceland and geothermal spa and experiences.
Aman hotels are known for their effortless tranquillity, and Amanzoe in the Peloponnese of Greece is no exception. With its hilltop location that feels strikingly like Mount Olympus, guests feel like the gods and goddesses of legends, surrounded by scenic rolling hills while they laze away in their villa between spa treatments.
…. For the Beach
When it comes to your beachy babymoon, what style suits you? Ultimate luxury and endless amenities? Desert island escapes that feel disconnected from the world? Or perhaps a buzzy beachside town with hip cafes and golden sands?
The UAE boasts some of the most affluent beachfronts with its glittering city backdrops. Expect opulence and every service your heart desires with cutting-edge facilities and amenities at your fingertips.
If it’s tropical escapes you’re after, Mauritius offers a quintessential island escape. While many expecting mums worry about Zika in tropical destinations, Mauritius puts that to bed, being an entirely zika free destination, you can lounge without worry, taking advantage of the crystal-clear seas, tropical rainforest and waterfalls, and of course the lush Shanti Maurice spa.
For hip beach towns, there’s only one place - Australia. Prioritise comfort on a long-haul flight, and while you’re there, indulge in its golden buzzy beaches lined with scrumptious cafes, exciting waves and summer vibes. Familiar, but wholly unique, Australia is perfect for couples who want a lively escape before the arrival of their little one.
…. For Remote Getaways
Eco lodges, secluded huts, and ancient rituals – nothing matches the distinct uncoupling of you from your everyday stresses like a remote getaway, where the sounds of traffic are replaced by the sounds of nature and days begin and end on your time.
Santani Wellness in Sri Lanka is true babymoon bliss, with a range of pregnancy-focused wellness treatments, from yoga and specific cuisines and diets to specialised spa treatments. Set amongst the remote wilds of Kandy, reconnecting with yourself and loved ones feels effortless.
Chalet escapes aren’t just for the slopes. COMO Alpina in the Dolomites represents the best of a mountain escape, with architecture that blends into the landscape, whether snow or sun, and a contemporary design that feels naturally elevated. Enjoy peace with prenatal massages, Alpine cuisine and cosy terraces.
…. For a bit of Adventure
If you’re looking for a trip where wellness is included but not the main course, let our experts craft you a bit of adventure for your babymoon.
Morocco and Egypt offer escapes that feel worlds away. Cruise down the Nile or run away to the Atlas Mountains, no matter what draws your eye, be it deserts, oceans or mountains, we know how to tailor your babymoon to embrace both the wild and the luxurious when in North Africa.
For remote wilderness, the lodges in the USA and Canada offer a unique Ranch & Spa experience where wildlife and the outdoors thrive alongside wellness. Like the adult-focused Echo Valley Ranch & Spa in Canada, where you have stylish boutique lodges nestled against the forest and the perfect blend of spa treatments and outdoor activities.
