New England inns offer Babymoon packages

Babymoons from Distinctive Inns of New EnglandOver the moon with the arrival of your new bundle of joy?  Who wouldn’t be?   Yet, the innkeepers at Distinctive Inns of New England – many parents themselves – know that for many new parents the thought of the arrival of a baby can also be a bit overwhelming.  Babymoons are a great way for couples to relax and rejuvenate, not to mention reconnect – before parenthood begins.  And what better place than one of the 11 Distinctive Inns of New England (DINE) to enjoy that perfect romantic getaway.

We asked DINE innkeepers to comment on their babymoon ideas. “We host SO many babymoons,” said Leslie Mulcahy of the Rabbit Hill Inn.  “Our biggest thrill is that some of our babymoon couples are those that have a sweet personal connection with Rabbit Hill Inn.  In addition to the past getaway visits, they got engaged at Rabbit Hill Inn, honeymooned at Rabbit Hill Inn, then honor us to host them for their babymoon.  It’s hard to describe the joy we experience as we share these milestone celebrations with our guests. We are part of their personal memory book, and they certainly are part of ours,” she shared.

While all DINE inns welcome soon-to-be parents, some of these New England inns and B&Bs have created special Babymoon packages.  Let’s take a look at three babymoon packages offered by Distinctive Inns of New England properties.

Captain’s House Inn Babymoons, Chatham, MA

No stranger to the need for babymoons, Jill Meyer, co-owner/innkeeper at Captain’s House Inn, and mother of five children knows exactly what mothers-to-be need. “We have many women comment that they have to now order a Snoogle – the pregnancy pillow we provide for their stay,” said Jill.  “It was a godsend when I was pregnant and I wanted to share that level of comfort with women who might otherwise suffer for much of their pregnancy!” she finished.  The Captain’s House Inn Babymoon varies by season, designed for two nights in the winter, or three nights in the spring and summer including:

  • Two or three nights’ lodging in one of the beautifully appointed Four-Diamond guest rooms
  • All applicable taxes
  • A couples’ massage (including gratuity) at Sol Spa (prenatal massages are available for pregnant women)
  • Chocolates in your room upon arrival
  • Ice cream sundaes delivered to your room on request after dinner
  • For pregnant women: a comfy, specially designed pregnancy pillow
  • A copy of “Good Night Cape Cod” (a spin-off on the children’s classic, “Good Night Moon”) for baby
  • A full gourmet breakfast each morning of your stay with room service optional
  • Evening wine reception from 5pm to 6pm
  • As always, the concierge staff is happy to help book dinner reservations and activities for you!
