New Bachelorette Party Trend: A Wellness Retreat with Your Closest Friends

With bachelorette trips more and more popular, bridal parties look for destinations that can offer something for all personalities and interests. While most groups choose experiences featuring clubs, beaches and bars, there is a large group of girls looking for a more wellness-focused trip where they can bond through relaxation and shared experiences. We’ve rounded up a variety of destinations offering the ultimate wellness bachelorette weekends:

Regent Santa Monica Beach
Bachelorette groups will enjoy a night of pampering, Champagne toasts and more at Regent Santa Monica Beach. Book the Spa Soiree package at Guerlain Wellness Spa for a stress-free bachelorette party and ultimate pre-wedding pampering experience. The experts and estheticians at the spa will create a one-of-a-kind itinerary of treatments specialized for each group. Afterward, spend some quality time together in matching robes with light bites and Champagne toasts in Les Clos, the spa’s exclusive private Champagne lounge.

The Garden District Hotel 
This tropical daydream is tucked beneath the oaks of New Orleans’ most storied neighborhoods and offers a unique take on Southern hospitality. The hotel features 50 retreat-like guestrooms offering natural light and one of the largest pools in New Orleans with beach-style entry, in-water loungers and fun fountains, making it the perfect destination for a bachelorette party. Now, bachelorette parties can join the Splash Society event series featuring high-energy morning workouts, fun cocktail moments and relaxing by the pool for the rest of the day. The trip ends with a relaxing note with a visit to sister property The Blackbird Hotel for its Custom Tea Program. Teas include the Take It Easy, which helps calm the mind with ashwagandha, lion’s mane and holy basil; and Travel Tincture, a spicy, immune-boosting mix with turmeric, ginger and cayenne.

Edgewood Tahoe Resort 
There’s nothing more relaxing than a couple days at Lake Tahoe. Bachelorette parties heading to Lake Tahoe can book a stay in Edgewood Tahoe Resort’s Villa Suites, available in two-, three-, four- and five-bedroom options. Perfect for big groups, each suite offers a private patio, hot tub, fire pit and grill station. Girl groups can bring the spa to their suites with an in-room Oxygen Bar, where they will enjoy a refreshing stream of oxygen infused with uplifting aromas to help ease stress, boost energy and enhance mental clarity. Additionally, each morning can start with Mountain Yoga overlooking Lake Tahoe, leaving guests feeling empowered for the rest of the day.
