'In Your Back Yard' Babymoon Takes the Travel Out of the Trip for Expectant Parents
Babymoons that have couples jetting off to the Caribbean or some other far-from-home, exotic locale overlook one of the fundamental truths of pregnancy: travel is not fun when you feel like you’ve swallowed a watermelon and your ankles have swollen up like sausages. Enter the “In Your Back Yard Babymoon” from Hilton Short Hills.
Short Hills, NJ, May 16, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Babymoons – getaways for expectant parents who want to enjoy one last romantic fling before their bundle of joy arrives – are one of the fastest growing segments of leisure travel. Yet babymoons that have couples jetting off to the Caribbean or some other far-from-home, exotic locale overlook one of the fundamental truths of pregnancy: travel is not fun when you feel like you’ve swallowed a watermelon and your ankles have swollen up like sausages.
Enter the “In Your Back Yard Babymoon” from Hilton Short Hills. The urban resort, situated just 45 minutes outside Manhattan in Central New Jersey, combines the luxury and relaxation most couples seek in a babymoon, with a perk that nearly every expectant mom can appreciate: a short trip to get there.
“The reality of modern travel is that it can be an arduous experience for anyone,” notes Edie Turna, director of sales and marketing for Hilton Short Hills. “For women in their third trimester of pregnancy, a long flight or lengthy drive can be especially difficult.”
For $309 per room, per night on any Friday, Saturday or Sunday, Hilton Short Hills’ babymoon includes a deluxe room, cookies and ice cream upon check in, rose petal turndown service, a prenatal in-room massage for Mom, a gift from the nearby Mall at Short Hills (a microcosm of Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue), and complimentary valet parking. For an additional charge, rooms can be upgraded to a Towers Room, roundtrip car service from Manhattan can be arranged, and mothers can enjoy a makeover, manicure or pedicure in the hotel’s salon. To book an “In Your Back Yard Babymoon,” call (973) 379-0100.
Romance, luxury and relaxation are emphasized at every step of the expectant couple’s experience at Hilton Short Hills. Rose petals strewn on luxurious linens enhance the hotel’s signature turndown service. Mothers bask in privacy and pampering in the comfort of their own room with a pre-natal massage.
“Our pre-natal massage* uses body pillows to comfort and support the mother-to-be, while the massage reduces the discomforts of pregnancy, improves circulation and enhances the physical and emotional well-being of both mother and baby,” says Steven O’Neal, director of the Spa at Short Hills, the hotel’s full-service European-style spa.
Best of all, Turna says, is that expectant couples will not have to travel far to find the luxury, amenities, gourmet cuisine and world-class shopping that they seek in a babymoon. Hilton Short Hills’ is a short drive from Manhattan and Westchester County, New York, and is convenient to many of Central New Jersey’s finest cultural and business centers. The hotel’s Terrace Restaurant serves an award-winning Sunday brunch and serves Mediterranean-inspired cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week. The full-service Spa at Short Hills offers a wide range of leading edge body treatments and massages, as well as a luxurious, column-lined indoor pool, tropically inspired outdoor pool, and state-of-the-art fitness center.
