Expectant parents' final trip as a couple should be at least as unique and romantic as their honeymoon. In fact, the term "babymoon" is derived from the English word "honeymoon".

Enjoying Time as a Couple for the Last Time (for now)
Spending time together as a couple, preparing for the upcoming birth and a new phase of life. Many expectant parents are looking for ways to relax and recharge their batteries for this new adventure. But what does a vacation with a baby bump look like and which destinations are best? Not every resort is suitable for Mums and Dads to be, as the destination and services should be tailored to pregnant women and their specific needs.
Many Green Pearls® partner hotels specialize in babymoon guests and offer wellness and fitness services for parents-to-be. The Green Pearls® Unique Places unite accommodations that stand out for their sustainable expertise and green projects. Organic and locally grown ingredients and the use of sustainable materials are a common line throughout the hotel philosophy. In addition, special activities and treatments are available in the spa areas - as the time from pregnancy to birth is of unparalleled importance and deserves special attention and protection.
Babymoon Yoga Retreat at Klosterhof Alpine Hideaway & Spa
Surrounded by nature in the Bavarian Alps, the Klosterhof in Bayerisch Gmain has been a place of retreat, contemplation, and spirituality formerly for monks throughout the centuries. In the tranquil atmosphere of the hotel, the retreat offers pregnant women customized yoga exercises to stretch and strengthen muscles. Carefully selected breathing and relaxation workouts provide physical relief and a harmonizing, nerve-strengthening effect.
In addition to the yoga retreat, the hotel, which has been awarded the EU Eco Label, also has a babymoon offer for parents-to-be. This includes a healthy breakfast, the Healthy Lunch Bowl Buffet, and a gourmet menu in the evening. Mums-to-be can also look forward to a specially tailored pregnancy wellness massage and parents-to-be can enjoy togetherness and a private spa feeling while floating in the Alpen Soledom.
Babymoon Wellness for Body, Mind, and Soul
Sleep long, let your mind wander, enjoy the moment, and be pampered. STURM in Mellrichstadt is an oasis of relaxation in the middle of unspoiled nature at the foot of the Rhön Biosphere Reserve. Take a dip in the swimming pond, take a deep breath in the herbal sauna, try the snack garden, or relax with gentle massages and nourishing treatments from the expert SPA team. Only 100% organic products are used in the SPA area. STURM promises wellness for body and soul. A perfect place to recharge before everything revolves around the new earthling.
Togetherness in a Private Chalet
The ADLER Lodge RITTEN in South Tyrol is especially popular with couples. Spend your babymoon in a modern private wooden chalet with the Dolomites as a backdrop. Here, surrounded by clear mountain air and endless alpine meadows, time seems relative. Nothing is required, everything is possible. The private chalets are surrounded by wood and furnished with natural materials, untreated floors, and a large window front offering a view of nature. The chalets even have an organic sauna. Drinks and meals are included in the price, and in keeping with the "farm to table" principle, most of the produce is home-grown or from the surrounding area.
Babymoon Special in the Hotel Das Rübezahl
The Hotel Das Rübezahl Romantic Hideaway in the Allgäu region of Germany is all about romance, with a mountain backdrop that includes Neuschwanstein Castle and other royal castles. The sustainable hotel offers a special babymoon for parents-to-be. Rates start at 780 euros for three nights per person, including spa treatments. Fathers-to-be can enjoy a beer bath with hops and malt, back, head, and neck massages, while expecting mothers can relax with a 60-minute facial, back massage, and foot bath. In addition, there is a culinary pampering program with breakfast, lunch, afternoon cake, and a 4-course dinner. Alternatively, you can enjoy a snack at the hotel's mountain lodge at 1,320 meters above sea level.
