These days, there’s a vacation for just about everyone so it’s no surprise that the creative minds in the travel industry came up with the newest vacation craze, the “Procreation Vacation.” Not as reclusive as the honeymoon and not as crowded as the "babymoon" the procreation vacation is somewhere in between. Focused on the couple hoping to conceive, hotels and resorts are offering a romantic vacation package complete with all the details, doctors and decorations needed to make this vacation a memorable one.
The purpose of the procreation vacation is simple: couples are infused in romantic setting including everything from in-room massages to candlelit dinners and also give access to on-site doctors who specialize in sex, family matters, couples counseling. In addition, you can even have one-on-one taste tests with the resort chef, who specializes in euphoric food and drink combinations to help set the mood. For example, spend a procreation vacation at a Chesapeake Bay spa and you’ll feast on oysters, long considered an aphrodisiac. Take a tip from the islanders in the Bahamas and start your dinner with pumpkin soup, which is said to promote fertility. Even obstetricians approve of the procreation vacation. These themed-vacations promote relaxation, and take the pressure off of couples trying to conceive.
Procreation Vacation Packages
Whether you like to surf, ski or spa, there is a procreation vacation package designed to meet your needs. Test the Caribbean waters and travel to a couples-only spa in Aruba. Or, relax in a resort in Puerto Rico or retreat to a remote location in Tucson. If winter sports is more your speed, consider a vacation in Jackson Hole where one ski resort offers a procreation vacation that includes a dog-sled trip to a hot spring. For all-inclusive fun, you can find cruise packages that cater to couples and promote conception by offering on-board classes and programs led by specialists.
Design Your Own
Who said you needed to follow the path set by the travel agency? Design your own romantic vacation with procreation in mind. If you want peace and quiet, consider a weekend at a bed-in-breakfast in Vermont. There’s nothing wrong with a weekend getaway in Charleston (rated one of the most romantic cities in the U.S.), or tempt your taste buds with a planned vacation to wine country in Oregon or Napa Valley.
But don’t forget your endless options outside of U.S. borders. Spend a week at a vineyard in Tuscany or live like royalty in Monaco. Design a romantic getaway to Paris and take a drive through the French countryside for some quiet time together.
