Top vacation experiences and ideas to consider as you plan your getaway for two before you become three.

Key West Babymoon Boom

There’s a babymoon boom happening! Did you know babymoons are almost as famous as honeymoons and usually take place in the second trimester of pregnancy? They are a great opportunity for couples to travel and celebrate new adventures on the way, spend quality time together, and relax before the new baby arrives. Mom, it’s also your time to get that well-deserved “me time.” We’ve put together the top Key West babymoon vacation experiences and ideas for you to consider as you plan your getaway for two before you become three!

Relax & Unwind In Paradise

Parents to be, it’s time to plan that trip and enjoy a few special days of relaxation before the little one arrives. Choosing the perfect location is key to a successful babymoon vacation. You want to be close enough to where all the action is, but far enough away, you won’t hear any of it. A tranquil setting is a must, especially for mommy-to-be.

Your tropical oasis is waiting for you at our Key West Harbor Resort at the Seaport: two acres of lush, tropical landscape with three pools, a poolside restaurant, and bar. The location is ideal for anyone planning a trip to paradise because you’re seconds away from sunset sails and fishing charters and steps from restaurants and bars as well as Mallory Square and the nightly Sunset Celebration. Do as much or as little as you like, just know its nearby.

Plan a Romantic Dinner at Sunset

At least one of the nights you are visiting, make sure to plan a date night. One of the most romantic dining establishments in Key West, A&B Lobster House, is nearby and offers the best views of a Key West sunset over the harbor. This is one of the ways you get to enjoy the best of both worlds - a beautiful sunset with an exceptional dining experience.

A&B Lobster House

An iconic venue on Key West’s historic seaport and a night that is worth dressing up for. Dine overlooking the clear blue waters of the harbor filled with yachts from around the world. Sip cocktails (and mocktails) as the sun begins to set, and enjoy exceptional food with unparalleled waterfront views to match.
