6 of The Most Fun Girls’ Getaways—Husbands & Kids Not Invited!

How many of us need a vacation after our family vacations? Sorry kids—but traveling with your best girlfriends is the way to go! Everyone can take care of themselves, there’s no pressure to keep everyone entertained, and laughing so hard you pee your pants is much more fun than a two-year-old peeing their pants. I’ve recruited the help of Randy Stern, my best girlfriend and travel partner, and president of Stern Travel Group in Miami. Together, we’ve compiled a list of 6 of the most fun girls’ getaways—husbands and kids not invited. So, clear your schedule and pack your bags, because you’re going on a domestic girls’ trip!

#2 | Spa Retreat: Lake Austin Spa Resort, Austin, Texas

Escape the demands of your daily grind by embracing rejuvenation with your posse at this secluded, lush green oasis. The resort offers the luxury of a world-class spa with the warmth of a best friend’s lake house. Relaxation begins with a scenic, 30-minute water taxi ride from downtown Austin. Then choose from group fitness experiences such as paddle boarding, yoga, or hiking. You all may opt to chill out with French-inspired healthy menus, hand-picked wines, and chef-led cooking classes. Stay in your robe and your complimentary flip-flops throughout your entire stay. You can even wear your robe to the dining room for lunch and dinner!

#3 | Musical Retreat: Union Station Hotel, Autograph Collection Nashville, Tennessee

Grab your cowboy hat and boots and head for some Honky-Tonk fun with lots of live music and Southern comfort food. The boutique Union Station Hotel is as deeply rooted in Nashville as country music. The stunningly restored 100-year-old historic hotel is the ideal place to stay. It’s only steps from top Downtown Nashville attractions, so no Uber needed. And since Music City is known for country, jazz, and blues clubs, you and your girlfriends will be in the heart of all the action.

Enjoy dining in several on-site restaurants, or high-end cocktails from the rooftop bar. But no doubt, the real stars of this trip are the gorgeous oceanfront pool with beautiful beaches.
