If you saw a copy of the New York Times this past Mother’s Day, you may have noticed their article about babymoons, leading off with a visit to the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa, which we covered here on April 10. Of course, babymoons are all the rage and you’ll find a new one here every week, as well as in our babymoon archives. If you have a specific destination in mind that we haven’t covered yet, drop us a line and we’ll see if we can ferret one out for you!

This week’s babymoon is from San Antonio’s Hotel Valencia Riverwalk, a Small Luxury Hotel of the World. Mom-to-be can luxuriate on the hotel’s custom-made beds, which are covered in seven layers of 300-thread count Egyptian cotton linens. The rooms and suites are graced with ebony wood and leather furnishings. With an excellent Riverwalk location, Hotel Valencia is a great base for shopping, strolling, and leisurely dining – activities you want to make time for before baby’s arrival!

Although the hotel features quite a few promotions for the mod squad (Stiletto Heel Fridays comes to mind – $1 per heel inch off your drink at the bar), the Valencia Babymoon package is definitely not an afterthought. It includes:

• Room delivery of breakfast for 2
• Valet parking (nice touch when you’re swollen out to here)
• Buy one Haagen-Dazs ice cream, get one free (yum!)
• A gift basket for mom and baby from Lather that includes skin goodies such as Blue Tansy Baby Oil and Eucalyptus Foaming Foot Scrub
• A lullaby CD
• 15% off discount card for Bloom Maternity
• 25% off non-sale items at Small World in the Quarry when you show your room key

And the hotel invites you to return after baby makes an appearance, offering (as part of the babymoon package) a voucher for a free suite upgrade for your return visit and a certificate for a bottle of champagne when you buy dinner at Citrus, the hotel’s restaurant.
