A babymoon gives you an opportunity to revel in the calm before the chaos – a last hurrah for life as you know it. To the uninitiated a babymoon often seems like an indulgence, but simply put, it is a chance to get away with your partner for a little bonding time before you’re knee-deep in diapers and sleepless nights.

Your life is about to undergo a seismic shift and soon you won’t be each other’s sole focus. Treat yourselves to a dedicated adventure just for the two of you. A babymoon will give you the space to fully appreciate one another and take in what’s about to happen and it will give you time to talk about your parenting goals.

The best time to go on a babymoon is during your second trimester when you’re feeling more comfortable and the common discomforts – the ‘usual suspects’ – of the first trimester are hopefully a thing of the past.

The spa’s Peaceful Pregnancy massage uses hypoallergenic massage oils and soothing massage techniques to boost your energy.

If you’re considering a tropical babymoon, destinations like the Maldives provide an idyllic escape. Velassaru Resort offers the ultimate dreamy seaside setting with beautiful white sandy beaches, tranquil turquoise waters and overwater villas perfect for relaxing in. Whether it’s lounging by your pool, snorkelling in calm waters or simply enjoying the beauty of the ocean, there’s a mellow rhythm to life here that invites you to pause and take it all in. And it is only a twenty minute boat ride from Malé so no need for a sea plane journey, and there is a doctor based on the island for extra peace of mind.

Days and nights here are meant for relaxing, whether it’s enjoying a romantic dinner on the beach or being blissfully without a schedule – both of you doing exactly as you please. Like eating your favourite food in bed while binging on an Apple + series. You don’t even have to worry about getting crumbs in the bed as housekeeping will gladly take care of them for you.

Get away with your partner for a little bonding time before you’re knee-deep in diapers and sleepless nights.

The resort has numerous restaurants that cater to every craving. From floating breakfasts to paper-thin crepes with lashings of Nutella to nourishing meals rich in essential vitamins and minerals – the aim is to give you a balanced experience. You can even enjoy a margarita or G&T virgin cocktail – these zero-proof cocktails bring the same taste and flavours as their boozy counterparts but without any alcohol.

A babymoon gives you a brief escape, an opportunity to appreciate the miraculous event taking place inside you, and in your relationship.

There are a variety of gentle activities to choose from ranging from walking on the beach, meditation to Reiki, a Japanese natural energy healing practice. And the spa’s

After soaking up the sun, swimming in the warm Indian Ocean and indulging in gelato, virgin cocktails and massages, you will feel calmer and more connected to each other than you did when you first arrived on the island.
