Mother’s Day and Beyond: Summer’s Best Family Travel Packages

by | May 9, 2026 | Family Travel Deals

 

Planning a family getaway doesn’t have to feel like a second job. This summer, hotels and resorts across the country — and beyond — are rolling out packages that reward travelers for staying longer, spending smarter, and actually enjoying themselves once they get there. And it starts with Mother’s Day, with resorts pulling out all the stops for the moms who deserve a proper celebration — think spa days, rosé on arrival, and brunch buffets with prime rib carving stations. From exotic car rentals in the Pacific Northwest to chocolate festivals in Grenada, free nights in the Cayman Islands to treatments in the California desert, these deals make a strong case for booking something sooner rather than later.

 

Six Senses La Sagesse: Grenada’s Chocolate Festival, but Make It Luxurious

Grenada has been perfecting its cacao for centuries, and Six Senses La Sagesse has found a very convincing way to celebrate that fact. From May 22–27, the resort is hosting experiences tied to the 2026 Grenada Chocolate Festival, including the Chocolate Vineyard Table — a starlit open-air dinner on May 25 ($250 per person) pairing chocolate courses with fine wine.

The spa gets in on it too, with a DIY chocolate scrub workshop at the Alchemy Bar, finished with a Cocoa Negroni, because of course. For a longer commitment, the Essence of Grenada Grand Edition package offers a $1,000 resort credit toward spa and dining on four-night minimum stays, with daily breakfast included.

Valid through December 31, 2026.

Hyatt Regency Lake Washington: Pacific Northwest in a Very Fast Car

The Hyatt Regency Lake Washington at Seattle’s Southport has quietly solved the classic vacation dilemma of “too much to see, not enough style getting there.” Their new “Legendary Adventures” package hands guests a 24-hour exotic car rental from Enterprise’s Exotic Car Collection — meaning Mount Rainier and the Downtown Seattle waterfront are now accessible in whatever impractical, completely wonderful vehicle you’ve always wanted to drive. The two-night package also includes a premier lake view room, daily waterfront breakfast at Water’s Table, and valet parking, which feels especially fitting given the car situation. Ferry rides to surrounding islands are on the itinerary too, though presumably in a more standard vessel.

La Quinta Resort & Club: Because Mom Deserves More Than Brunch

La Quinta Resort & Club in the Coachella Valley is making a compelling case that Mother’s Day should last the entire month of May. Spa La Quinta is running treatments through May 31 with names that actually deliver on their promises — the Mom Rocks Massage uses warm stones for a 50-minute Swedish session, while Mom’s Time to Shine stacks citrus exfoliation, LED therapy, steam and a scalp massage into one glorious head-to-toe overhaul. Expectant moms get their own dedicated prenatal option.

Cayman Islands: Stay Longer, Pay Less

The Cayman Islands has essentially figured out that the hardest part of vacation is leaving, so they’ve leaned into it. Their “A Free Night on Us” summer campaign rewards travelers who simply refuse to go home — participating hotels are offering complimentary nights, discounted rates, and extra perks for longer stays.

The Westin and Hotel Indigo both offer a free fifth night, while Turtle Nest Inn throws in a rental car when you book eight nights. Events sweeten the deal further: the Flowers Sea Swim (June 13), Margarita Festival (July 26), and Rum Festival (Aug. 16) give families legitimate reasons to extend the itinerary.

Deals are bookable through July 13 for travel June 1–October 15. Details at visitcaymanislands.com/summer.
