Girls' Getaway

Photo$girlsgetaway_1
Ever feel like the demands of being a mom, wife, or busy professional are getting you down? You can revitalize your life (and those special ties to your female friends) by planning a Girls’ Getaway!
Sometimes the destination inspires the getaway: Hawaii boasts surfing, while the Wine Country offers cooking and wine appreciation. Your group might also form around one activity. If you desire serenity, destination spas offer total immersion in a more peaceful setting. Some, like Golden Door, offer special "women-only weeks." Finally, if finding a "new part" of yourself is the goal, adventure resorts such as Falling Waters Adventure Resort can challenge you with mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and more!
Love a good bargain? Many hotels offer special packages catering to women traveling together. And don’t forget AAA and AARP memberships! Even a grown-up girl needs a night away to giggle with her friends every once in a while.

Scottsdale, AZ

This Arizona wonderland, nicknamed "the Beverly Hills of the West," is the perfect destination for wellness- and nature-centered getaways. Spas abound at the finer resorts: we especially recommend the Westin Kierland Resort Spa and Villas and Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort at Gainey Ranch. When you want to play, Adventures Out West will take you hot-air ballooning, while Wind Walker Expeditions runs eco-tours of the desert. Sanctuary Golf brings ecologically friendly techniques to Scottdale’s legendary game of golf with stunning results.

Vail, CO

"Vail" means "snow," and this upscale resort town definitely offers some of the best skiing in the country – just ask the teachers at Vail Snowsports School! But Colorado is a fascinating destination year-round. Try a "saddle and paddle" tour with Colorado River Guides – ride horseback to the river, then go whitewater rafting when you get there! The Vail Golf Club is especially popular among women golfers. When it’s time to relax, sample the ultra-luxury condos at The Lodge at Lionshead, or check out the new renovations at chic Tivoli Lodge.

New York, NY

New York City is the perfect destination for a Girls’ Getaway. In addition to world-class shopping, you can take in cultural attractions such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the ballet or opera at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. You and your companions will adore high tea at Lady Mendl's Tea Salon, complete with scones and finger sandwiches. Keep the theme going with enchanting accommodations at the The Library Hotel or the Hotel Elysee.
