5 Reasons Why a Cruise is the Ultimate Mom’s Getaway

Why it’s time for a Mom’s Getaway?

Ask anyone and they will tell you that Moms are the busiest and hardest working people they know. As a mom you might feel like you're constantly juggling multiple responsibilities, from work to parenting to household chores. Sometimes it’s easy to feel lost in the chaos, managing calendars, prepping school materials, and chauffeuring tiny athletes to their next meet. We all know how important it is to take some time for ourselves and recharge our batteries. So why doesn’t Mom get away more often?

Ugh, the Mom Guilt Many moms feel guilty about even thinking of leaving their family for a brief getaway and need a reminder that taking time to recharge is ok. Spending some time for yourself is not selfish. It's essential to your overall happiness and wellbeing, and ultimately, that benefits the whole family.

Ok, I am Listening…… Ok now that we are ready to start dreaming of our mom’s getaway calling the girls, where should we go? Why not a cruise? With so many options to choose from, a cruise offers all the best parts of a girl’s trip in one spot, from dining to entertainment, to luxurious spas, everything is at your fingertips. Even better if you work with a travel advisor, they can help you coordinate the girls and get your plans all set so you don’t have to be in charge for a change. And while there are certainly many amazing destinations with spas and entertainment, here are 5 reasons why a cruise is the ultimate girl’s getaway.

1. Get off the grid- While you can certainly find Wi-Fi on board, the remoteness of cruising makes it the perfect combination of being disconnected while still being accessible. You can disconnect from the outside world and enjoy some much-needed downtime without the interruptions of texts messages and social media pings. There is time for a nap poolside, to take a yoga class or to finally finish that book that’s been sitting on your bedside table. With no emails to answer or appointments to keep, you can truly relax and recharge.

2. Girl Time- You can bond with your girlfriends: Cruising with your girlfriends is the perfect way to greet new memories together. Get competitive in a trivia competition. Take bets on who will be trying the most exotic foods onboard the ship. Enjoy coffee on your veranda and watch the sea pass by. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to laugh, chat, and enjoy each other's company.

3. A Whole New World- You can try new things- Each day will have opportunities to try new activities, discover new hobbies and meet new people. From dancing to cooking classes to water sports, there's something fun and something new for everyone on a cruise.

4. Oh, the Places You’ll Go- You can explore new places: One of the best things about a cruise is that you get to visit multiple destinations without the hassle of packing and unpacking. Wake up to new destinations each morning to explore a new city. Explore different sites, soak up the local culture, and try new foods.

5. Me Time- You can indulge in some self-care: Close your eyes and soak in the smell of the sea air during a guided meditation during yoga. Treat yourself to some relaxation with your favorite spa treatment. Watch the sunrise while doing your morning workout at the fitness centers onboard. Cruises are the perfect place to find the time for self-care, meaning you will come back feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Moms are some of the busiest people on the planet. Between taking care of their families, working, and managing their households, it's no wonder that they often feel like they need a break. So don't feel guilty about taking a girls' trip. Embrace the opportunity to recharge, have fun, and make memories with your friends, and come back ready to tackle whatever challenges come your way.
