Girlfriend Getaways are Hot Gift Basket Idea

By Flora Morris Brown, Ph.D. | July 28, 2008

Not long ago bachelorette parties were the main occasion when girlfriends got together for a big dose of fun and frolic. Now girlfriends are extending their relationships beyond bachelorette parties and shopping therapy to weekend getaways.

During girlfriend getaways ladies leave behind their husbands, kids and careers to prance around in novelty pajamas, cruise on sailboats, splurge on decadent foods, or take pole dancing classes. Most of all girlfriend getaways are a time to put aside worries, share conversations, bond, relax and revel in fun.

Major hotels and tour operators are setting up girlfriend getaway packages to profit from this growing trend. Gift basket businesses can benefit as well by proposing gift basket themes to become part of the girlfriend getaway packages. Here are some ideas to get you started.

Sophisticated themes are great for high-ended packages that already include champagne, limousines, shopping trips, hangover kits, and massages.  These hotels are actively courting girlfriend getaways.

Girlfriend themes are perfect for hotels that have created niched packages such as

  • Martinis and Manicures at the The Kimpton Hotels in Boston, Washington D.C. and more nationwide
  • A girlfriend gift basket with movies is part of their package at the Omni Hotels, 39 located nationwide
  • Just Us Girls package at Sonesta Hotel, Boston, Miami, New Orleans, and St. Maarten.

Outdoor Fun

If you’re ready to inject new profits in your gift basket business, propose custom girlfriend getaway gift baskets to the hotels and tour operators who are already targeted this special market.

If you like the information you get from this blog and want to show your appreciation, buy me a cup of coffee. Thank you.
